Sorry but how many premiership players are currently playing for richmond??

The pies have a far deeper depth of quality younger players than richmond do, your window is open now but i doubt it will be open for aslong as collingwoods will be, i like richmond but i just dont get how some people on here can make outlandish statements that the pies havent been anywhere near a flag in the last 10 years, tiger71 you are making your own supporter base look stupid, maybe think before typing next time buddy
See this is the thing.

What does having premiership players that played in your last premiership mean to your club now ? Outside that they are now 200 plus games who are aging and there output has been reduced ? And can you pie supporters stop playing the man. I have said countless times, lets stay on topic, I just countered your narrative that the pies have a brighter future then my club.

No that would be the Western Bulldogs, but we are about 3rd for best youth
Says who? Apart from Moore and De Gooey, which of your youth has shown much?

Can we just have one thread on this board that isn't hijacked by Richmond supporters bloviating over their recent unprecedented success of finishing in the eight. Please just be reasonable.
Can we just have one post from you that isn't complete trolling? Please just be reasonable.

Speaking of outlandish statements... where is this "far deeper depth of quality younger players" you speak of? Please name them.

You didn't have any first-gamers playing. Or any second-gamers.


Average Attributes
Richmond Attribute Collingwood
189.7cm Height 189.5cm
87.9kg Weight 89.7kg
24yr 2mth Age 24yr 3mth
83.1 Games 80.3

Your average age was older than ours, by a month per player. Our players were more experienced, by 3 games per player. Collingwood is not some wunderkind youth team like some of its fans are trying to make out.
I never said we were. Just responding to the assertation that you somehow had a less experienced team on the park than we did on the day. Averaging out games played doesn't actually tell the whole story, hence the reason I put the games played breakdown up. It's good that you conveniently ignored the fact that we had 12 players on the ground with less than 50 games experience and covered it with the old average games BS. Also didn't help on the day that our most experienced defender in Toovey went down injured in the first.

Regardless though, this is a thread about Adam Treloar and his wonderful decision to become a Collingwood player. Not a pissing contest for bitter Richmond supporters to pretend they're a destination club in.

Why would i ?

I have no made it personal, like you blokes. I stated my view, you mob did not agree with it. if you have to be so sad to report my posts instead of countering it with facts then go for it.
Really? You insinuated I was drunk twice and called me a troll for pointing out we actually had won a premiership in the last 10 years.

You were the one that made it personal and I did report your posts. Unfortunately you haven't been banned yet

Broomhead, adams, Grundy, crisp, Maynard, Elliott, langdon, marsh. This is while two top 10 picks haven't had a proper run at it also.

This line is where you pie supporters need to accept accountability.

No Richmond supporter is saying you are not a destination club, we have just stated we are equal proposition. You blokes turned it into a pissing contest, not us.

Now lets get back on AT

lol, so you are a board mod now ?

Grats on reporting my post.

You sort of lost any credibility here. Were you alive in 2010 or just conveniently forgotten it? We also made the GF in 2011 by the way.

If my maths is correct that is in the last 10 years.

Seriously, Tigers fans coming out of the woodwork spouting some crap!!
the above is your post when you jump in like a hero. I responded in kind as you believe we are coming out of the woodwork. yes you played in a grad final 5 years ago but like i have said to every one of my posts quoted by your mob that nobody has answered as it does to aline with your narrative, what does participating in a grand final 5 years ago, mean to AT and your side having a brighter future then ours ?

All you have done is troll to try to get a bite.

I didn't assert anything other than we were younger than you on the day. We were out of form, without one of our best players, gave you a five-goal head start, nearly choked and still won. Then the next meeting we destroyed you.

But you're right. This thread is about why Treloar would be mad to go to Collingwood and only will if you pay him a ridiculous amount. :thumbsu:

Broomhead, adams, Grundy, crisp, Maynard, Elliott, langdon, marsh. This is while two top 10 picks haven't had a proper run at it also.
Broomhead - Neat player but done little at AFL level.
Adams - Poor man's Anthony Miles. Turnover merchant.
Grundy - Good young ruck. So was Josh Fraser.
Crisp - Decent player
Maynard - Meh.
Elliott - Gun. But 23 is youth now? So can we count Dustin Martin? He only just turned 24?
Langdon - Meh.
Marsh - No good.

So, 23 and under is the criteria?

Miles, Batchelor, Conca, Ellis, Ellis, Griffiths, Lennon, Lambert, McIntosh, McBean, Vlastuin, Menadue and several others developing nicely in the twos.

And we don't have list-cloggers like Jesse White, Young, Dwyer, Goldsack, Karnezis, Armstrong, Oxley, Sinclair and Toovey. Our best player will not be 32 before next season.

If I were Treloar assessing which team suits me best, I'd look at team structure. We have established but still young key position players. You have Cloke on the decline and Nathan Brown, who is decent but no star. Frost is a spud. Marsh is worse. Moore is a talent but a long way from holding down a key post. Collingwood's key position stocks are wafer-thin. That should be your priority.

Maynard's ok, meh was a bit harsh. Marsh is awful. Slow between the ears and from hand to foot. Our boys are all guns, cheers.
Marsh is great wtf you on about.
Let me guess Liam McBean is the next big thing but Witts is a complete hack? Mmmk
Oxley is a list clogger but bachelor isn't mmmmk

Message to all supporters outside Premiershipmond, don't bother arguing with them, it'll be a mute discussion. They are just so over excited this year for being such an under achieving club for 35 years.

"Mute". :$ Way to fulfill a stereotype, champ.

Witts is good. Oxley is rubbish. Marsh gets parking privileges. Batchelor is a key plank of the third-best defence in the league.:thumbsu:

lol @ Marsh being "no good". Time for richoatthedisco to have a nap imo
Time for you to get off the crack. I've watched him closely. He's slow between the ears and from gathering the ball to disposal. At best he's an athletic spoiler. There's a reason he slipped to 77 in a weak draft.

If they redid the draft he would be top 20 easy. Actually reminds me a lot of how Rance started out. end derail
