The more speed in the forward line we can bring in the better.
I was just noting the number of powerful beasts that are in there. The small tigers players better watch out, they are going to get tackled and hit hard.
it would make sense IF they were fit and hadn’t missed any football.
again on a day where you’ve lost a key forward, probably the biggest at the club due to mismanagement and rushing him back cos our “tall players were decimated” you’d think they’d learn something and not rush back more players, just cos they are tall.
It reeks of ineptitude and a lack of being able to think of a new or different way to win.
esp in a game where
A we are most likely going to lose anyway
B they won’t be able to apply the defensive pressure required on a top team
why not try something new or different ?
I’m against it in general, but why not move Hooker down forward, have him as the only big body, and play exactly the way richmond do and go with a ton of smalls and just pressure the ■■■■ out of the richmond backline ?
Stringer can play the caddy role and we just blitz them with their own gameplan ?
why does it have to be, oh mckernan is tall, lets bring him back straight away off a hammy, cos nothing could possibly go wrong there right ? not as if there isn’t plently of evidence on this year alone it’s a stupid ■■■■■■■ idea, let alone years of experience.
1mm of rain predicted so hardly going to be a wet ground, besides Bags has really struggled to apply pressure at all this year. Only laid 1 tackle last week. I think he’s averaging around 2 tackles a game so its not like his pressure will be missed. We might be better off having another marking target in LAV up there this week, who knows
Think she was in a movie I watched. It was about 2 gurys who win the lottery or something and her and another girl try and scam them by hooking up with them, but then they end up falling in love. Some ■■■■ like that
Brown is miles ahead of Francis as a forward if that’s where they plan on using Francis again. They must’ve been too worried about bringing both McKernan and Brown back from injury together.
Lets forget how they were premiers in 2017. Lets look at 2019.
Richmond have won 6, compared with our our 4.
They were farked in Round 1 when they lost their MVP, Rance.
They beat Carlton, Port,Sydney, Melb, Freo and Hawthorn.
They lost to GWS and Collingwood and the dogs. They have yet to play Geelong and Brisbane who sit above them on the ladder, so that makes them pretty much on a par with us…
Percentages are very similar. Richmond around 104 Essendon around 101.
I still maintain we are a good chance in this game. In terms of results this year, they are not that much, if anything ahead of us at this point.
It worries me too.
Really hoping Laverde has a geat game.
But it is a change we have been after this year. And should improve the team overall
Would be one of the few times times Laverde, Francis, Langford, Parish have all played together since like 2016.
Apparently they call him the zombie. Does this mean he is a dead man walking?
CALLUM Coleman-Jones may be affectionately known as “Zombie” around the club, but Richmond defender Dylan Grimes is backing his teammate to handle his debut well during Dreamtime at the 'G.
A Richmond thug rang up a radio station suggesting that they are expecting Sydney Stack to take one or more of our players out. It might get a bit feisty tomorrow night, so watch out for any drunk Richmond supporters.
