unfortunately i cant agree. while vickery is a very ordinary player he is probably the best tall fwd option we have outside of riewoldt. sort of sums up the list really.
tall fwds
riewoldt - only decent tall fwd we have.
vickery - imo hes a dud. after 6yrs mediocrity is his level. how many good 200cm fwds have there been.
griffiths - struggles to get more than a handfull of possesions a game at afl or vfl level. reckon they will cut him. again how many 200cm fwds have there been.
elton - while he has good attributes is already 197cm/100kg he cant get a kick in the twos. seems he has no idea.
mcbean - geez a 200cm player by golly what a surprise. 200cm player who isnt to date very good in the air. do i need to ask how many good 200cm fwds have there been.
we may have 5 tall fwds and id argue that point as well, but still we scream out for quality in the area.
i can do this sort of exercise with the backs and the mids.

list lacks quality, proper numbers in key areas, and depth.
ffs look at the ruckmen
stephenson a 32 yo rookie.
maric 29yo solid player.
hampson - if it wasnt so sad it would be hilarious that we went and got this hack. theres a great future there lol.
then theres vickery if i listen to my fellow supporters,imo a bloke who has a heart the size of a pea and in 6 yrs doesnt look like a 1st ruckman. in fact hes supposed to be our other kpf.
mcbean - well i ask is he a fwd or a ruckman or just stuck inbetween.
just my opinion but ireckon projecting fwd most clubs are in front of us apart from 4 or 5 mids.
yet i come on this site and people are talking finals. what a joke.
Been a site member for nearly 10 years, still yet to write one positive post.

It's typical. An opposition fan talks up Richmond and then Richmond supporters get labelled delusional and over-cocky.

Cycle repeats.
Well you may believe the evidence of actual posts in this thread, but I prefer to take Lance's word for it.
