    News Richmond cheer squad being surveilled by undercover AFL spotters after umpire abuse

    I might be the only one expressing this view, but my family footy experience has frequently been compromised by aggressive, foul mouth opposition supporters. For every fight that breaks out, there are 50+ that almost do. I think crowd behaviour has got worse and it effects my decision to go to...

    Analysis Have we really fixed our main weakness this year ?

    I'm happy to to stand with sante on this one, Miles has many good attributes to his game but I think he has been overrated. I have also noticed his D50 15-20m possessions, and his inability for defensive running. Its up to our coaching to stamp this out as opposition sides will allow it.

    Two great podcasts boys, I went to listen a second time to the Richard Taylor interview and was rewarded with your full review of drafts

    I think we have to rookie him if no other club picks him up. He is contracted for 2015.

    Ellis has equivalent contented possessions per game as Brayshaw and is a better kick. We are also deficient of quality left footers in our midfield. I feel confident we are on a winner with Ellis if we select him. A likable understated character to boot.

    Sen speculated he could be there to represent the NT. 1 from each state in attendance apparently.

    Could we still make the eight with out Maric?

    Hampson would get first crack then Griffiths. club will want to leave Ty as the forward and relief ruck. Hampson was named in the best in several games early this year when he played in the ruck. When Maric returned he was rightfully given thenumber 1 ruck spot, Hampson was sent forward and he...

    Could we still make the eight with out Maric?

    I think centre clearances are pivotal, because the middle of the ground is a highly offensive position and players are spread in a traditional structure making it easy to score. For this reason I don't rate Maric as highly as many, and for this same reason I think Hampson has more potential...

    I think it provides a very slight PR edge that's about it. The player is more likely to be embraced by the fans and that is a benefit, albeit a slight one.

    Could we still make the eight with out Maric?

    Depends on your perspective on ruck work, I still rate it but many don't in the modern game. I think a clear hit out to advantage is about the best contested ball win you can have. You win a true 50/50 contest and put it clearly to advantage and you set your team on its way. It's a 100m play...

    Could we still make the eight with out Maric?

    Good post, he is important in our current line up and he is influential many games. I would hope for a step up in class at some point down the track.

    Could we still make the eight with out Maric?

    Give it 1-2 years I reckon to see what we might have in Griifiths, Vickery, Soldo, Hampson. I think we might have one ourselves in that lot.

    Could we still make the eight with out Maric?

    I'm clearly in the minority here, and no need to tell me that I am, I think Maric is overrated. He's a real work horse and embodies our spirit but he gets towelled up by quality opposition. The hit outs he does get are defensive hit outs and seldom put us to advantage. The last quarter of the...
