So Collingwood are going to get improvement from a bunch of kids but apparently Richmond aren't going to have youngsters improve. We've got Ellis Menadue Lennon(9 games in 2 seasons) Drummond Vlastuin McIntosh McBean among others to come into the side or take greater roles in the side.
Beg to differ, Maric isn't the be all and end all when it comes to our premiership chances. In fact you'll find many a Richmond fan already realises that Maric needs to be replaced for us to take the next step because he isn't as competitive as he used to be. Hampson will no doubt get a crack at the ruck, but Vickery was drafted as a ruck forward and plays his best footy when up the ground involved in games. Rotating him with Griffiths gives us 2 200cm mobile goal kicking ruck/forwards who while they won't win 30-40 hitouts a game can do damage around the ground and when resting forward.
Give me a spell, we had 6/7 players not get on the park for the year and that was on top of your 1/2 week injuries and missing Deledio early doors for 4/5 weeks and Edwards late for 5 weeks and yet we still won 15 games and finished 5th.
All Richmond's guns have peaked, you expect Rance and Martin and Maric to have a bigger impact in 2016 than they did in 2015? They will maintain their level and hopefully not struggle with injury.
Who were the 6/7 players??
