Malthouse said he expected Richmond to play more like the Western Bulldogs of the late 1990s than the Tigers side of recent years.
The arrival of former Bulldogs coach Terry Wallace at Punt Road has led to the Tigers adopting a gritty gameplan.
"We expect them to play the way Footscray (Western Bulldogs) played several years ago," Malthouse said.
"What we have observed at training and in their practice matches is that they're trained along the same lines as how Footscray played.
"It's just different people in a different uniform playing the same way."

Given our high draft picks, the list Wallace will have in a year or two should turn out be far more talented than the one he inherited at the Dogs where the same players in that "year of the dog" doco ended up the following year in a PF. You would also reckon he would've modified some things from his Bulldogs stint given the time he spent in the media and watching U18's footy. Terry himself said he has more talls at his disposal at Richmond. More like "better people in a better uniform playing a similar way" 8).

Funny bloke that Mick Malthouse :help :help
Nervous perhaps :cheers :cheers
I wonder if the Pies will change the way they play this season ??? You know chipping it all over the place :sleep

Malthouse is one coach I really can't stand. Always spinning crap and trying to be phylisophical with every sentence.......I wonder how his players listen to him. And always using injuries as an excuse - always.

Typical strategy from Malthouse, trying to hose down and blunt the excitment around our club by making nothing of Wallaces inclusion into the Richmond footy club. He's seen it all before has he, We're Footscray in new uniforms are we, He's been down to training and seen nothing new hey. All these types of statements are designed to blunten our enthusiasm and to make us feel like there is nothing special happening with our club. Well I hope wallaces same old, same old, kicks your Faarrkkeenn ar$es Malthouse on friday night :thumbsup

I can imagine if the shoe was on the other foot TW would be saying....Collingwood?? Same crap team as last year, same crap President same crap gameplan and Buckley to start the season on the injury list. With all that taken into account I expect Collingwood to be playing like Collingwood of the 90's just different people in the same uniform. ;D

LOl - well said Tiga :thumbsup :lol

Malthouse blames greedy Tigers
19 February 2005

COLLINGWOOD coach Mick Malthouse accused counterpart Terry Wallace of being greedy last night after the Magpies' stunning seven-point win in the opening match of the Wizard Cup.
The Tigers led by 25 points early in the final term before a super goal by Anthony Rocca sparked a dramatic comeback and victory.
Buoyed by the match-winning form from the likes of unheralded Andrew Williams and Leon Davis, Malthouse said the Tigers let slip what should have been a fairytale start to Wallace's coaching stint at Punt Rd.
"The game plan that Richmond has under their coach and, this is certainly not a criticism, I think this is probably an asset I certainly haven't got," Malthouse said.
"I reckon if we are 25 points in front or thereabouts, I tend to think well, I'd almost say, 'Blow the siren'. I'd take it."
"Whereas Terry, historically and traditionally, has gone '25, let's go to 50!'. And that is breaking the back of the opposition and quite often that does take place.
"Any games we've won by an extra couple of goals -- and you really think that's cheap goals -- but what it is, is rubbing the opposition into the ground.
"But doing that, it sometimes opens up the floodgates, or opens up (your own defensive) gates.
"If you persevere long enough and things get turned around, and you make the most of your opportunities where we didn't early, sometimes you can latch on to a couple of goals.
"That perhaps (allows you) to get back in and win the game."
Wallace rebuffed Malthouse's comments, saying his side did its best to defend what should have been a match-winning lead.
"When you get that far in front, you should win that game of footy, we tried to save it and you learn very, very quickly that you can't save footy games," Wallace said.

There's no one I hate more in the footy world at the moment than Malthouse and McGuire.
-
The rivalry has begun!
Mick should be more worried about his own side than ours. He's had 5 years to develop and drill the Pies in his gameplan whereas Wallace has had one pumped up practice game. We'll meet again Mick when it matters and 4 points are up for grabs :thumbsup.
As for Eddie John, I went to the game last night but I heard the commentary in the last quarter when the Pies were coming back was biased and over the top from him. Was that the case? Glad I missed it if it was.
-
Just his typical biased self MT. Being all excited when the pies do something good but sulking or remaining silent when the Tigers do a good play.
For instance when Tambling kicked his super goal after burning off Scott Burns all Eddie could offer was some deflated mumbling which could only very loosely be classified as praise.
Was also very quick to point out the umpires mistakes when they went against Collingwood but remained silent when we got some dodgy decisions.
One thing that absolutely infuriated me was after the match when they went into the Collingwood rooms where Doc Larkins was and he was reporting the tragic news that Schulz would miss 8-10 weeks, all Eddie said (in a joking manner) when they cut back to him was make sure those guys that were standing behind you blocking our sponsors banners don't do that again or they'll be kicked out the club (in reference to some collingwood trainers and staff that were blocking their corporate banners).
Gary Lyon then said it was horrible news for Jay Schulz and then Eddie put in some empty words of how it was sad for Schulz. You could tell he didn't give a stuff though. Even when he was being told that it would be a ten week injury the first thing he thought about was just getting his corporate logos onto the screen.
He is just an arrsehole capitalist, corporate pig who tries unsuccesfully to hide it. stuff THE idiot AND stuff MALTHOUSE!
-
Just typical Collingwood really. Only care about themselves and deluded in themselves to think that they are the centre of the football universe ::). Only good thing about it is this denial in admitting their own flaws and deficiences makes them come up a crocker when it matters :thumbsup. Only 1 flag in the past 47 years is testimony to that :lol.
-
LOL, true.
I can't wait until Collingwood finish bottom four for a couple of years consecutively. I'll enjoy listening to Eddie's commentary then.
-

Could be this year with any luck :thumbsup.

Nothing like a gracious winner, hey.
I was sitting right next to the Pies cheer squad last night and it was a great atmosphere there when we got so far ahead lol.
Oh well, they tried their best. I think Micky would be creaming himself (and probably is anyway lol) if he had Tambo and Deledio in his side.
He can take his meaningless win in a meaningless competition - i'll take the great kids we've got for our future.
-
Ditto moi - I was next to them just on the left of the cretins. Had a bit of fun there for a while. By next year we will be in front of that rabble and will stay there for many years Geez I hate collingwood. :banghead
-
I was section 6 front row - end of the aisle, with darling little maggot kids lol getting in my vision every 5 seconds.
I had a bit of fun with the Pies mascot - he came around to the kids next to me - and i said "go away, you're scaring the kids - so he headbutted me" lol
One of the best nights of footy (except for the result) great weather - should be more summer night games of footy i reckon!
-
Where is 6 - Not near that Dikhead pie supporter that kept giving the crowd the bird and showing his tatts - I was that close to giving him a piece but alas I dont do that anymore - But stuff I was close. :thumbsup
-
Lets not worry about Eddie Everywhere anymore.Just dont tune in when Collingwood are on Channel Eddie and give the Footy Show the stuff as well.We know what he's like by now.
Like I mentioned previously when this row flared up,when Tim Lane refused to work with Eddie that was a statement in itself about the glaringly obvious especially coming from one of the most knowledgble commentators of sport in general
Anyway back to the game. I enjoyed the free flowing game we were playing last night. It reminded me of the way he had the doggies running game going with Rohan Smith ,Chris Johnson setting up foward thrusts with quick transferral directly from half back to half foward.
We still have a long way to go thats for sure .In the second quarter the turnovers at half foward from poor judgemnt and lousy kicking skills probably cost us the game in the end.
I kept my eye on Deledio a lot.stuff!Has that guy got some pace or what?Tambling looks pretty exciting too.
We defnitely have more hope down there than previous years.Just going to take time, but hopefully at least we might be more competitive.
-
I watched the game yesterday on Fox Footy and I thought it was hystercial when Eddie (after Tambling klick his second and put us up 25 points) with about as much excitement as a cow mowing in a paddack just before milking) said something like "and that's probably the ball game" and then 3 minutes later almost wetting himself when Rocca kicked that 9 point goal.
We were promised:
1/ we'd be competitive - we were :cheers Remember the Tigers of 2004 would have packed up half way through the 2nd qtr
2/ We'd play fast attacking footy - a tick there as well and it was great. It was exciting, it was fun. Some of the usual suspects lapsed into bad habits but on the whole everyone tried to follow the new game plan.
3/ The kids would get plenty of game time. - with the exceptionof Pattison that happened too :bow :cheers
Disappointed to lose but enjoyed the game and to be honest I don't remember the last time I can away from a game and said "that was a good game to watch :bow
We just need to learn how to win again (all the demons from last season are not completely gone ;D) and I reckon it may happen sooner rather than later :thumbsup
As for Mick Malthouse - he had 3 big blokes inthe forward 50 for mot of the game - instead of worrying about the way we play he should do something about the way his team play - chipping, zig-zagging through half back - YUK :scream

I had a pies supporter in the vicinity - i think he was 50 metres away, but i heard him quite clearly such was his mouth lol - whinging and moaning about the same thing. If I closed my eyes and thought about it, it cuold have been a Richmond supporter last year. Never wanna see that stuff again!

Wonder if Terry has these comments from Malthouse during the Wizz Cup pinned up in his office or at home. Time for some humble Pie :thumbsup

i really cant stand mick poohhouse
he has now reversed all he said after the freo game in yesterdays press conference, and he is basically challenging his senior group to lift.
i feel he feels pressured by his own ppl as he now realises they dont have faith in his ability! why did teh pies chase eade so hard to be match day coach and analyst????? its because they dont have faith in micks match day coaching!!!!!
now we must not get complacent. the magpies have no chance in beating us, our best footy will beat theirs by 80pts!!!
but as the pies cannot beat us , we can lose it!!! we must stay switched on, focused and stick to the rules! terry i know will do his best to keep these guys switched on but as soon as they get ahead of themselves , we will lose!
what i want to see, is the same as last week, i wanna see us jump out of the blocks, kick a bag of goals and crush them in the 1st q and then reproduce what the dockers did to them.
at the end of the game against freo, mick said it was the worst day in pie history!!!! i want that to be us!!!
i want us to be their biggest misery not the dockers!
if i had one wish , i would wish we won by 120+ points, i want this w/e to be the w/e where richo kicks 15!!!!! if that happened then i would be prepared to die :-)

lol, good call MT.
lmfao@malthouse.
Wouldn't it be great to set records for winning margins against our two biggest rivals in back-to-back weeks?
We have a good chance this week. Hope we monster them by 150 points+
