It seems likely that Ted Richards will be selected in the side this week, do people think he is ready for the seniors, I am unable to comment not having seen him on the track.

what about Rioli ??? Will he be playing ????
Where does this Ted Richards info come from ???? Id be very surprised if he was actually playing, although maybe sheeds figured he could play him on one of Norths youngsters.

It is on the front page at Bomberland. They seem pretty convinced he will be in this week.
Cheers

i dont know whether ted will play or not but it seems as though he might

i can give u some details on him if u want

he is a xavier college boy and has played most his footy as a key back
as he has done at essendon and done it well

has a great pair of hands, a good leap and a good footy brain
he seems to have a good kick and looks to be a player

played half a game on geelongs clint bizzell a few weeks ago and did the job well.
probably been in the vfl sides best players each week and has taken some amazing grabs

if he does get his spot, and this has been something sheeds tends to do, debut guys in big games, then it will be very well deserved

Hello Bombers ppl. I came to post something constructive but the topic on top was about a player who i dont know. But seen as Ted Richards has never played senior footy i say play him. It will make your team less experienced and with any luck result in a loss http://www.bigfooty.com/ubb/biggrin.gif

Well i better go before i contract Essendon germs.

Prob playing off the bench id guess- Ill be keen to see the lad in action- any guess where you think they would start him Walshy ??? From what Ive read Id guess down back- but depends on the game situation I guess.

id say he would probably start on the bench but it would all depend on the set up of nths forward line, if they start an unexperienced player up forward then richards might get a nod

Also looks like Forser-Knight might get a game. I would be surprised if Sheeds' debuted them in the same game. Did Forster-Knight do enough in the pre-season games to warrant selection or is Sheedy up to his usual tricks?

well looks like neither of them will play

forster knight has done enough to prove he is good enough to take the next step and i would like to see him get a crack
he is an emergancy so i guess he is still a chance

White will have no impact on the game whatsoever. Jako is all over him like shit on a stick!

McVeigh and Jacobs are in the interchange list. Forster-Knight's listed as emergency. Richards' name is nowhere to be found.

McAlister and Bolton are the other two emergency players.
