, we have depth, it's just that we don't really have depth, so now everybody is going to see the guys I threaten to play all year but never need to......because it's the best list in my time at the club.

U F L !!!

As deluded as Danny Frawley and as sneaky as Wallace.
What a combination.
To,dimmer's credit, he's his own narcissist.

oh look...

[Penelope]

That sounds great, until you look at it closely.

what I would like to know is why we have no real intensity, player shepherding, player follow up, player movement for options, why we constantly go to the sides and not up the middle, why we can't put teams away when they are on a plate, why our tackle rate is so low, why we struggle constantly against sides like North and Carlton, why do we move the ball like treacle flowing uphill, why do our players get rag dolled constantly, why they are rewarded for games when they don't chase or do 'the team thing', why are we so slow, why do we let our captain get tagged out of the game and offer no support,

doesn't matter what players we have with our current game plan.

Improvement requires change.

Team list, team selection, team ethos, coaching, all need to be addressed.

Mostly fair enough, but which teams go up the middle when they don't have a fast rebound or are not behind and need to take a risk?

Hardwick backs kids to turn Tigers around

Sam Landsberger

DAMIEN Hardwick says Richmond has struck gold with its past two draft hauls and the pain of a failed 2016 season will be short-lived.



Hardwick praised Daniel Rioli’s speed, agility and inside work but said he wanted the first-round pick to improve his uncontested game.

Rioli laid 13 tackles in the VFL last week while the Tigers rank last for tackles this season and won the ‘soft’ stats against Port Adelaide last week.

And so it begins  wont be long and we have a B Ellis clone.

As others have alluded to.
How ironic things are going to be turned around by kids he has not thought good enough to play in front of the myriad of duds he regularly plays
Can understand supporters talking every kid on the list up but the coach fmd.

How many of those 14 kids will even make it how many are A gradersjeezus h Geez 6 of the 14 i already have grave concerns about.
I wonder if DH appropriate initials has even looked at what other clubs have recruited in recent years and how our kids stack up against them.

C'mon Claw, this is just a blip in the steam train that is the RFC. We have the best coach in the league with the greatest game plan ever devised, the best recruiting that money can buy, let's not forget that these new recruits are getting the best in development from "Guru Chocco" and remember that we have DanTheMan & BJ Blair getting us the big fish they've been promising 
We will win the premiership next year we are that good

Groundog day, recall a similar msg when dusty was tearing it up inside in his first 2 seasons, 3 years later our strongest player was an out and out outside receiver. What a coach 

[Penelope]

do we want players that are good by foot getting most of their ball inside and having a large portion of their disposals under pressure?

[Diocletian]

Rioli doesn't need to work on his outside game, he's quick and a natural....our tackling's a major issue and right now he's one of the few who's sticking them....
