Preview Round 6 2019 - Richmond v Melbourne, MCG. Wed April 24th 7.35pm

[HTT]

Bolton unlucky but so would anyone else
Dees have made 5 changes, looks like the coaching panel have made a real statement to the players. Expect them to come out fired up and they’ll put the pressure on us. If we play our best we should still be able to deal with them but any less and they will do to us, as we did to port.

 

[_RT_]

How so? People are ridiculous if they wanted anyone out besides him.

He is our worst performed player. That's what happens when you have depth. Players miss out.

On a side note, Melbourne's changes look good. I didn't want Garlett in.

Couldn't believe people were calling for Higgins to be dropped ahead of Bolton.

 

[Cdog71]

Whose captain?

 

[Rubber Hips]

Feel for Shai...showed quite a bit in his 2 games...a very good level of maturity
Hope he gets another gig sooner than later

Bolton has been superb.
Our worst performing player wears No 11.

WhyTF Bolton out?

 

[Ashman OG]

Bolton stiff as

 

[TimmytheTiger]

why is the team out early? what am I missing?

 

[RobsJourney]

On paper, I think Melbourne win this

 

[DontArgue4]

Why? Lol

What about on grass

 

[MadTigerFan]

Is it just the short break for Bolton cos if he's not back next game then FMD what does he have to do? do they want to ship him off back to WA after the season for next to nothing.

 

[RobsJourney]

Why? Lol

Garlett the kind of player that always kills us. Dunno why the Wagners were even in at all before, so dropping them is good for Melbourne.

Their team more closely resembles what it should have been from the start of this year.

 

[MadTigerFan]

Why? Lol

Haven't got the greatest feeling about this game tbh, Melbourne need it so much more.

 

[Barnzy]

Bolton has been superb.
.

By what measure? He's our worst defensive forward. He's kicked 1 goal in 2 games and is only getting the ball 10 times a game.

He's made things happen and is a little improved on last year, but it's not enough.

Would of come down to the tackle count imo he only had the 2 compared to Castagna having the most of the game with 8 and Baker having 4

That's absolutely disgusting, what has this game become.

Reckon we'll lose this one.

He just has that little bit of something special all the other small forwards simply don't have. Do we want a small forward capable of kicking bags and setting others up? He's the only small forward capable of it.

 

[Power Play]

Getting the cheese platter ready for this one.

 

[Vassp]

Shai got dropped for one of the greatest forwards in the last few years....I’m sure they would’ve spoken to him about it and how close he is.

 

[joelsyt]

Stiff for Bolton, unfortunately someone had to go out for Jack.

We look very tall compared to Melbourne, surprisingly enough, be interesting to see how it works out.

You said it perfectly there.

Rioli isn't talented enough?

 

[Spacedog]

Weird team from the Dees. Frost, Hore and Hibberd vs Lynch, Riewoldt and Caddy/Dusty should be carnage for them. Tom McDonald must be going back but their coach said he wouldn't. If he plays forward they have 0 chance
