Happy if we go with this but Moore may stay in if we're still experimenting with the line-up as Dimma said we were during the week.

So any of the following could come in next week:
Stengle
Menadue
McIntosh
Townsend
Soldo
CCJ
Lloyd

McIntosh and Townsend should come in. Strong consideration to bring Stengle and Lloyd into the team as they are ripping the VFL comp apart.

Although I don't like dropping players after 1 game, Bolton and Ellis are in the spotlight with Moore and Higgins on thin ice.

The Barometer - Round 18

Herald-Sun
16 July 2018


ON THE CUSP: The Tigers VFL side is flying, sitting atop of the ladder, fresh off an 85-point win over North Melbourne. Tyson Stengle was the star of the show on Saturday slotting six goals, while premiership star Jacob Townsend kicked two. Sam Lloyd continues to dominate at VFL level with 37 disposals and awaits his senior recall.

ON THE BLOCK: Richmond suffered a rare loss on Saturday night, falling to Greater Western Sydney by two points at Spotless Stadium. There were some underwhelming performances for the Tigers, with Callum Moore (five disposals), Shai Bolton (nine disposals) and Corey Ellis (10 disposals) all failing to impact the contest. Jason Castagna butchered his chances in front of the sticks with five behinds, but he should have enough credits in the bank to keep him in the side next week.

BEN GIBSON’S FORECAST: The Tigers may looks to reshuffle their forward line after failing to kick a winning score against the Giants and it’s hard to see Stengle getting overlooked. Richmond is still the outright premiership favourite and there is no need to panic, but with players pushing hard in the reserves, expect a change to the team which will face St Kilda on Friday night.

In the Mix - Round 18

RICHMOND

Get them in: A six-goal haul, along with 24 disposals, from rookie Tyson Stengle in the VFL against North Melbourne should have him in the frame. Sam Lloyd (37 disposals, one goal), Connor Menadue (25) and Jacob Townsend (23, six tackles, two goals) didn't do their chances any harm.

Under the pump:
Small forward Shai Bolton didn't have much impact in the loss to Greater Western Sydney, while Corey Ellis was a touch shaky.

Medical room:
The Tigers escaped unscathed against the Giants.

Verdict: Stengle for Bolton and Menadue for Ellis.

Cellis spent a lot of the game tagging Kelly, and did okay for the most part in that role - won't be dropped IMO.

I'd like to see Bolton get another go, if he had have kicked that goal in the last instead of spraying it I actually think it would have been a reasonable game.

Townsend for Moore at this stage for mine.

I'd love to get Stengle in, deserves a run after his effort in on Saturday arvo. Maybe if they wanna go small drop Georgie. Hate to say it but he probably needs to learn a lesson.

Thank Geez someone watched the game.

Josh Kelly is a 30+ possession winner each week. He had 20, 55% efficiency and had 5 clangers from pressure

he kicked 2 goals which is the only black mark against C Ellis but he certainly blunted his match winning effectiveness.

Now if we;d sat a player on Whitfield!!!!

Watch the game again, if tagging means sitting behind the play waiting for him to come forward, then yeah he tagged him  ::)

He was also on taranto for one of his goals, didnt/couldnt follow him and he took an easy mark over the top to kick a goal.

Do not understand the amount of excuses supporters come up for this dud. He is not afl standard, will be dropped this week and delisted at seasons end.

Don't need to champ-  you see unlike you, I already understand football and the concept of "tagging"..(Hint: generally entails "running with" not "standing off" and  "waiting for" or "trailing way behind" your opponent )#clueless   :shh

The Tigers head into Friday night's clash with St Kilda coming off last week's two-point loss to Greater Western Sydney.

Forwards Sam Lloyd and Tyson Stengle are pressing for selection after strong VFL form, but a swag of changes is unlikely given Hardwick said the Tigers were relatively pleased overall with the showing against the Giants.

"You look at all the indicators that we value and we won all those. It was just one of those games that they made the most of their chances and we didn't," he said.

"Whilst disappointed we walked away with a loss, we were pretty happy with 80 per cent of how we played."
