beggers cant be chosers

but how can ppl say we didnt get what we need

common think about , we are teh clanger and turnover kings in the afl and every yr cry for a better skilled team

we now have added to very skilled and fast footballers to our list

we cont what we needed and as for kpp, well, we have a fb - thursty, we have a chb - polak we have a chf (plenty of them) we have ff ( see chf) and we have 3 rucks


i think too many supporters freak out too quickly

we need more skill more skill and more onballers

We dont need anymore"" Jake King"" type or players who are lean.

the game is changing, its a running skilled base game, height is only needed at the bookends


and we are not that short, we have enough talls.

our lack of height did not cost us games this yr, our lack of skill did

jake king or no jake king, thats not the issue, but jake king was finding the ball and has explosive pace, thats what matters, its the skill thats the issue not the height. its not footy in the 60's 70's 80's .... anymore.

and if height was the issue, then our pick 2 shoukld be gourdis or a kpp, but thats not how it works, u get teh best player possivble and cale morton has much more height than trent and is just as highly skilled so thats why we will get cale imo.


height and stregnth can  be overcome with speed and skill, but we are not as short as many think

thats right we dont need anymore small "Jake King" but he has has woken some players up & gives 100%
he stands tall his skills are better than some 10 year players & King may turn out to be a Havery or Bell Type player
l like to see him left down back he can read the game nicely & is far more direct with his play his kicks hit 90% target & he makes few mistakes but every player will make a few in every game there not perfect
His got that nasty streak & is not worried about belting a player & niggling them
if anything this year his the player who stood out the most because of his size
But the Tigers do need the taller players ones who have stuffin skills

back to back spoons is exactly what we need at Richmond. One more year at the bottom. The first 2 picks in next years national draft. We need more talent, we havent got enough of it at Richmond to win a flag.

when Miller said "Pick 2 is gonna be a beauty for us" or something like that, he suspiciously sounded like he knew exactly who he was thinking of.

I suppose it all depends on who Carlton actually take.

It seems we will only judge how good our pick is depending on how the alternative pick3 goes at his new club.

Either way you look at it Kruezer, Cotchin or Morton will be beauty pick for us indeed  :thumbsup

Re Trade week debrief - some people on here (and elsewhere) need to check themselves into therapy, because they need to take a good hard look at themselves after some of the disgraceful and extreme behaviour they displayed this last week.In particular, going ballistic before they even knew the facts and outcomes. They cetainly have a right to their opinion, but they also are in dire need of the psychiatrist's couch.
