As I said the other 3 outs are not surprising. He deserved it, looked disinterested AGAIN

What the hell is up with Corey Ellis, they kept that quiet :banghead

Id guess grimes to the backline and astbury forward.
Astbury did ok when moved forward , particularly when you consider he wouldnt had much forward work over the last few years.
Jack griff and astbury might just work,

Yep think Astbury showed enough as a forward to be given a go there this week. Would rather try him than play Vickery or Lloyd as the other tall. Should have some structure with him, Griff and Jack.
On the other hand anytime I see Batch and Grimes in the same backline I shudder. Not a huge Dea fan but I'd rather him come in than play both of those guys.
Gordon is hopeless but offers some speed. Would still rather see Lennon given a few games in a row. It's a shame Dimma picks every side like it's potentially his last game.

How does Batchelor keep getting a game!!
Play Dea FFS!...And even George.
Both are a better kick, mark, defender than Batchelor and give more offensively.
Our side lacks run and yet we keep playing the same old statues.
Between Batch, Chaplin, Astbury and Griffith we are way to slow.
We are playing a team with huge leg speed and yet we keep slow players that have given nothing all year.
We loose games before we even run out on a Saturday.
I'm glad the game is in Tassie so I cannot go.

Dea ain't kwik. I'd say Batch is quicker actually

Hardwick has jumped the shark.
He is a stuffwit that beats up on kids and doesn't have the courage to make real decisions.
stuff him off.

Really? Batch quicker?
What about agility?
Surely you don't think Batch can move better than Dea?
Forget Dea for a second- do you think Batch would get a game in a top eight side?
If the answer is no than we should be looking for better. And IMO Dea is an option.

I'm just glad Vickery is out. :birthday
Nothing more nothing less at this stage. :-\

Not if Dimma is still intent of saving his job with malakies Big Fella.

I agree. Batch is a poor kick and decision maker. He would not get a game in the VFL with some sides. Give Dea a go.

Annoyed he dropped your buddy Vickery (a dud and for once a good choice)

12:21pm: It's been a busy morning at Melbourne Airport with Essendon, Richmond and Hawthorn all checking in within half an hour of each other, and Nathan Schmook was there.
Tigers Brett Deledio and Ben Griffiths have both flown with the team after overcoming calf injuries, with Ben Lennon travelling as an emergency.

Have heard Lennon will quite possibly be a late in. Watch this space ;)

Norfs team ain't looking all that good on paper but neither is ours, rusty ins of Grimes, Griffith's, lids. Still playing some kids in mcintosh and out of form players in morris. Its a tough call on who will win.

No it ain't.

But North have this more than covered.

I think Batch is probably at the low end of the scale of our problems, especially if we are talking about Dea as a replacement Batch hasn't had a fantastic year but has shown good form last year and is still young. I don't have an issue trying to run him into form in the ones.
-
Agreed Dooks..Batch has been Ok compared to some of the other gumbies in the team,Batch attacks the footy which is a rarity at RFC
-
Don't mind Batch but he definitely has to improve. Should be depth at best and that's if he improves (if he does become good enough for best 22 I'd be stoked). Problem for me is he gets so many chances (not the problem) but others like Lennon come in and then are taken straight back out and they are the type of players who could improve to a level that could be best 22. I think it's mainly due to Batch doing all the little things every time and Lennon and some of his mates are lazy but gee wiz give them a chance
-
The group I sit with at the footy have all mostly written Lennon off.I know its early but gee according to them some of the early signs are bad
-
Very bad actually
-
Very bad actually
Even more confident of him making it now that you've written him off....
-
SNIP :banghead
Last warning to those who are playing moderators - you all face a first strike if you go down that path again.
And I wont naming names as it clear those involved will try and bait to get the others suspended.
I'm off line for the next few hours because im in hobart but if I log back on and see the same nonsense then 4 people will be receiving first strikes
-
I literally have no idea what the hell is going on :huh
Anyways, anybody know of any late changes?
-
dont think deledio will be late change as his twitter is saying he will play. never know these days though. hope the tiges come out with some real intensity this week !!! :gotigers
-

Thought the same last week and the commentators were shocked by their lack of intensity, whatever Hardwick and his cronies do to fire them up before a game definitely doesn't work.
-
Awful decision to pick Deledio.. So desperate.. Pathetic.
Newman is old and finished, can't play full games.
Amateur hour.

But newmans there for his incredible leadership qualities
