Dont know how they can squeeze Poly in unless he plays 2nd Ruck.

From the RFC site....

Football manager Ross Monaghan said while Polak's inclusion was a big step, being in the 25 held no guarantees for selection into the final 22.

"He's in the squad, he's being considered, and we'll make the decision tomorrow, based on the conditions on the weekend," he told richmondfc.com.au.

Monaghan said all four deserved their inclusion after doing well at Coburg, Richmond's VFL-affiliated side, but that it would be tough to break into the side after a couple of good wins.

"Yeah, all three have been good at Coburg, and the other guys who are in the squad have been holding their own in their positions, so which way we go, in terms of final selection, we'll decide tomorrow afternoon."

In:  Tuck, Polak, Rance

suprising Bowden gets BOG 2 times in the month & does not get selected or even a mention  how pathetic
So much for what Rawlings said. His contradicted himself about playing those who perform at Coburg

[TigerLand]

No positives playing a guy whose definitely not playing next year with nothing to gain this year.

Credit to Joel for continuing in the reserves.

He's getting a send off game. Stop your whinging for Joels sake.

This is true TM

But unfortunately for Joel, so is this, so no game for that backwards chip kicking hero of yours monk.

DallasCrane - that avatar of yours is very disturbing. Poor kid.

In terms of team selection it has to be about the future now but if they can afford to say goodbye to a few of the loyal stalwarts of the club this would be welcomed too.

I'm happy to change if it's disturbing you Stripes, I'm the type of guy who laughs at kids falling off trampolines and getting bitten by animals. I can't help it. I like laughing at poor grammar too, which is one reason why I like reading this forum so much. 
I'm obviously not referring to your beautifully scripted posts Stripes

I used to too as well before I had kids myself - now I see my little ones getting hurt  clips like that rather than how funny and freakish the kick and toddler cartwheel was.

I like the new though. Now that is a fantastic avatar! I've always been a Homer fan - he epitomizes everything we all aspire to be and highlights everything my wife continually strives to change.   

Thanks for the compliment DC but I'm not sure about the scripted part. Most of the time I'm just pulling comments and opinions out of dark and smelly places like the rest of the posters frequenting this forum. At least you know who stands for what around here and how to easily stir them up when you are in the mood for a giggle.

Gus in for Patto isn't a surprise but not sure why we haven't replace Cotch with another mid unless Jade is thinking of playing Rance on Goodes again as a tagger.

Whitey very very lucky to keep his spot after the last couple of games. Polly unlucky given the publicity that he may be playing this week.

Why are they playing McMuffin when he makes critical mistakes, surely McMuffin wont be there next year whats the advantage of playing him his VFL form was not at all good yet they give him promotion 

l be there when Joel leaves & if he plays well it will make people around the club look very stupid & will be a media circus about Richmond again.
