Looks like Thursty may have played his last game for Richmond. Grimes is now clearly seen ahead of Thursty by the coaching staff and match committee.

I reckon you're jumping the gun a bit there MT

Let's wait and see if Grimes plays. Also. I don't think North have huge forwards hence why Grimes maybe preferred as he is more mobile than Will

With two talls already dropped it's hard to see another one get the chop as well given North will at times have Petrie, Hansen and Goldstein (when resting) all up forward.

True :lol

But we can't take things for granted. We have a history of spuds having a day out against us and us making them look like champions  :scream.

At least Hardwick can spot a dud when he sees one.

It seems only Freo showed an initialy passing interest in Thursty and presumably they were only interested if they could get him on the cheap giving up no picks.

Grimes survives in the our 22 so he must now be ahead of Thursty in the pecking order which probably spells the end for Will at Punt Rd at the end of the season. Sad as before he did his knee on the night he was beating Jack's cousin, he was seen as becoming our future full-back. The game changed as well and key defenders needed to be attacking rebounders as well as pure defensive spoilers and that wasn't Thursty's game.

It's a pity he is unable to add it to his game because he's quite a good user of the pill. I'd rather have him kicking it than Rance or bloody McGuane
