If we let Fyfe run around and get 40 then we lose.

Is Dimma stupid enough to let that happen?

It’s one thing to back our “process” but with Cotch out and Dusty out of form, it’s time to shut the oppositions best player down.

McIntosh a good match up?

He got 35 last year against us and guess what? They got pumped. They hate Fyfe and so I’d let him get all day long cause his teams mates won’t want to know. We’ve gotta stop their other dangerous smalls
"The money might have been better. But, at the end of the day, Richmond showed faith in me. It's only fair that now we're 18th on the ladder, I show the faith back in the club and do everything I can to put them in front. In the end, I'm stoked I made the decision to stay. I f***ing love this club”

As per my post, we are a different side this year from last.

The last time we had a genuine tagger was when Duncan Kellaway was playing.

Last year there wasn't the 666 rule and we were able to put a spare in defence so Fyfe (and Neale's) clearances didn't hurt us. We'd picked them off in D50 and then sliced through Freo with speed of ball movement on the rebound.

We were in awesome form this time last year. Still fresh from the afterglow of the premiership. If we had been in that form in September then we would've been back-to-back premiers. I fear tomorrow's game could get very ugly  :-\ given all our outs, lack of form of others, and if we don't bring a similar nose to the grindstone effort to when we beat Port away.

bt what makes you think McIntosh would be a good match up for fyfe. The bloke totally lacks an inside game and would have no idea on how to go about it.

He is big, strong and can tackle and is an AA pest... And has an AFL tank.
That’s all it takes.
Taggers are generally the guys that aren’t real good at footy but can run and scrag the good players.  :whistle

Fyfe’s problem is that he has hated by his teammates and they have no other options through the midfield. He is hated at the club.
