But don't worry Hampson will be like a new recruit this year and win an AA. Dimma rates him and that's all I need to back me up

Audition of 3 talls fails again.

At least we're consistent  :P.

Wrong talls.

Stuff off Vickery. Been saying it a while.

Try McKenzie or McBean for goodness sake. Anybody but Vickery.

"Primarily, I want to play three talls,” Hardwick said.

“What we’ve just got to make sure of, is we pick the guy that’s in form.

“At the moment, I’m playing Sam Lloyd as a key-position player . . . he’s 5ft 10in.  He kicks three goals (against Carlton in Round 1), so he keeps his spot in the side.

“Whoever’s playing the best will play.”

Newman gets a get out of jail free card for each round,  the only thing that will see him out of the side is an injury, sad but true, should have retired last season.

I agree, one of these two could be the answer. I also think that a two talls with a third player thats not tall but can play that way. Current setup with Lids playing alot at half forward is not a bad way to go. The only thing that worries me is that if Griff or Maric goes down early in the game we are very short on ruck back up.

For me it's Jack, Griff and McKenzie.

Only mention McKenzie because of his stature. He could become a genuine POWER forward which I've been crying out for for years. Somebody with a powerful frame like Walker/Hawkins/Roughead.

Jack on a stuff. Griff half-forward. McKenzie deep. Few smaller blokes around them.

They're the three I hope take us forward.

Vickery needs to replace Maric in the ruck ASAP.

Seems you were right Craw. Now for some consistency
"The money might have been better. But, at the end of the day, Richmond showed faith in me. It's only fair that now we're 18th on the ladder, I show the faith back in the club and do everything I can to put them in front. In the end, I'm stoked I made the decision to stay. I f***ing love this club”
