Brandon Ellis re-signs on a two-year contract [confirmed]

[big tone]

TRUE. Im not as worried about bellis than the other 2 mentioned, although even grigg has been okay.

We are talking about winning premierships. Not are they as poo as last year...
Do you think The Richmond FC can win a premiership with any of those players in the side??

Has anyone of them stood up in a big game ever?

[YellowandBlackBlood]

There are 4 big games coming up for the RFC. A good test to see how bad or good they are. Hopefully past performances won't be predictors....

i think we can win a flag with 1, not all but not with a guy leading who cant even win 1 final.

i think bellis has stood up in some games this year, but certainly not houli and to a lesser extent grigg. Thats my opinion of course.

Im not the biggest Bellis fan, but Ive been happy with his output since about rnd5 or 6. Seems to move the ball along a lot quicker and fwd these days, plus has a harder edge to his game.

[Diocletian]

Yes he's got his game up to a servicble level that any half-decent kid in their second or third season could achieve...

[Owl]

He can run fast in a straight line but I cringe in fear when he has to compete for a ball almost as much as he does

[The Machine]

Having a great year but i am still cautious of him and Houli standing up when the heat is well and truly on. They both tend to handpass blind in tight situations often. Still overall happy with his year

Every team has them, weak links I'm referring to and ours are B.Ellis, Houli and Grigg
All have good games at times and sometimes shockers
If I was opposition analyst I would target them to apply constant pressure as they buckle quite easily.

You can't have 18 Rances...

Our bottom six is better than it has been in yonks.

We beat a form team by 6 goals without huge games from Cotch, Jack, Dusty. Pretty encouraging I would have thought.

Yeh but still our bottom six.

The ones who'll let us down in finals.

You are 100% right but what's wrong with wanting better than complete softies.
Seriously some people are just happy with being better than we have been.
stuff that!... we deserve better than that.

[tony_montana]

Can someone point out the moments Bellis crapped himself today, last week and over the last 10 or so weeks? Bc I have barely seen it in all honesty. I dont have him in the houli/grigg bracket anymore, has taken significant strides fwd this season.

He's also not playing back, Broad is and we look so much more solid with him back there. Replace Houli with short and I'd be very very happy

[Yeahright]

He did last week going back with the flight of the ball. Looked like he didn't want to put his body on the line

[tony_montana]

At what stage of the match?

11.15 left in the last

He's our softest player. If that was anyone else people would be all over it, but with Bellis it's the norm and we are immune
