Did someone say give a chance to Menadue??
Wait til the Gold Coast game and plonk him on CEllis and watch them battle it our for relevancy.
We smashed that draft said DH ...CEllis, Menadue, Drummond, Butler, McKenzie.
One out of five! 20 per cent!

Was once a fan , but it’s time to let go and move on. What ruins footy clubs is not upgrading your bottom six players.
Astbury is another guy floating around looking busy , but doing little. The game has moved on yet we’re stuck with bed wetters and slugs. MAV Weller please don’t go there.
Astbury without Rance is going to be interesting to watch. But we're stuck with him till Rance is fit.
 
Yeah I just don’t know what they expected playing guys like Brando,Weller,markov........I got what I expected! They spudded it up just like I thought. Now is the time where we have to weed in some youth to reinvigorate the side. Dusty just looks disinterested
If Markov is good enough to play one game, he stays for 2 or 3 for me. I did not think he was good at all. But give him 4 games for his career. It was good to see Weller able to play but, like Ellis should be depth for later in the season. After the likes of Ross have had a crack. Now that injuries are kicking in selectors have no choice but to blood a few. Hopefully Balta & Garth get a crack at it

thats about our usual hit rate though. we havent drafted a legit star since dusty, higgins looks likely though.
 
get off the pipes Coxy_
No, I won't. You do realise Richmond hasn't been the same since I moved back down south, away from my palace with the perfect shitter location. 18 months since I watched footy while taking a shit.

If you can't work out the secret to success or my support for BEliis then you need to pack it in.

His weaknesses are still weaknesses, he still has the ability to rack them up but with little influence

he is not a good kick, not a smart kick or creative

posterboy for meaningless positions alongside grigg

The wort trait you can have as a backman is being a panick merchant and ellis has that in spades
Goes to peices when the heat is on every time
Total liability.

Bad footballer. Terrible in the backline
 
I noticed he was our 2nd highest ranked player for the game.
Short 1st

...Short and Ellis were the most shit players (defensively) outside of Weller; this just proves fantasy football in regards to stats rankings are very silly in regards to actual football... IMHO

Not a dig at you, but here's am amazingly true and accurate statistic.
There's a big percentage of posters on Big Footy who sprout that 'stats are meaningless' only to continually to drag them up to try and prove a point.
I couldn't care if BEllis got it 36 times .. they'd be about a third as effective as the ineffectual Tom Mitchell's 35 plus possessions.
It's never been about stats with Brando.

Well, one has a premiership medalion but arguable if relevant at the moment.
 
I can't recall the last time I posted something negative about a Richmond player. Today I need to. I thought the naysayers were wrong and Brandon Ellis had something to offer. I was the one who was wrong. Time for both us and him to move on. Looked disinterested and didn't commit. Send him to the VFL and have him watch Sydney Stack videos on repeat.
