It's funny you keep Vlaustin
Trade big time
Choco Williams said on Friday, Nick can't play midfield as he has zero endurance
Very limited
Needs to be traded if that's the case
You keep Grigg , why . He can run all day .great endurance  and heads the GPS charts at punt Rd
But the supporters and OER experts want to keep Vlaustin
Funny stuff

First I heard this with Vickery, now Vlastuin - this attitude and the fact these two bluechip draftees are still considered to have zero endurance and more importantly ALLOWED to still be this way after years in the system is a massive blight on the current regime. So he doesnt have endurance? so what? stuffing build it up! throw him in for spurts and push him harder, same for Vickery

there is no excuse for allowing players to not have endurance especially when we invest 1st bloody rounders in these players. >:(

If it was about running, why don't we just get 22 Kenyans into the team? Their GPS numbers would head the AFL.....  :whistle

AFL have changed the rules in recent years
Yes it is about running
Haven't you watched the Bulldogs or GWS lately

Last time I looked being able play footy I.e.making the right decisions with the ball, kicking it well, handballing and marking well and playing without fear was far more important than just running. Vlastuin is an inside mid. Grigg plays more outside where running is mandatory. We need more inside mids. You can always improve endurance too.

I'm not sure what this fuss is all about. Reality is Grigg needs to rate as a top 10 on our list to get another year.
Right now, it's touch and go which he realises.
It breeds a competitive mindset for the overall list.
His last 2 seasons have been better than Vlas.

“I find it nearly impossible to make those judgments, but he is certainly up there with the really important ones, he is certainly up there with the Francis Bourkes and the Royce Harts and the Kevin Bartlett and the Kevin Sheedys, there is no doubt about that,” Balme said.

Am I getting this right?
We are comparing Grigg with Vlastuin?

Way too funny.

Get a grip Jack.

We understand you like Grigg but get serious!

I'm not saying Vlas can't play a Hodge-esque HB general role but clearly he is suited to play inside mid. He played really well against Hawthorn and Sydney and realistically should have been left in the guts when Cotchin returned from the broken cheek

Grigg was better than Vlas on Friday night and has had a better year overall.

I don't particularly rate Grigg, but he's been serviceable.

Not so sure about Floss. I think many of you are clinging onto his promising first year and are not honest in your appraisal. I think he's been largely disappointing since then.

Lack of endurance would probably make sense as to why he's not played in the midfield.

Richmond are a far worse side for not having vlastuin in it.

Not so grigg.

People that appreciate vlastuin have an understaning for th finer points of the game.  :laugh:

Dont think anyone questions Vlastuins potential but call a spade a spade - is vastly over rated on performances thus far in his career by tiger fans.
