Changes next week?

[1980 So Far Away]

Anyone care to predict next changes?

The sad reality is that anyone on the list who has played 100 games or more is not going to play in a Richmond premiership, because we are so far off the pace that we will not win a flag during their careers. Therefore, any of those players who are not contributing must go - the only way Richmond can move towardsa flag eventually is to play the youngsters who might have a chance to win a flag in 5-10 years.
Of course, what is also required is a coach who can actually develop youngsters. Terry Wallace has got any track record of being able to develop players. He inherited a strong, senior list at the Western Bulldogs and took them to 2 preliminary finals in 1997 and 1998. With the exception of Nathan Foley, it is hard to identify a single Richmond youngster who has achieved more than was expected of him when he was drafted. Three years ago, Hawthorn were nowhere - Clarkson has developed the talent and drilled them well. Wallace has done nothing.
And when are these boys going to start playing for the jumper????
After all that, changes next week:
OUT: Wallace, Bowden, Tivendale, Simmonds
IN: Anyone who can coach, Connors, McGuane, Edwards.

Very happy to bring Reiwoldt in, particularly after the way the forward line played today!

Please not Riewoldt, I know he will but you guys hate Pettifer's soft tackling, Riewoldt is worse. Riewoldt gets lost out there at the moment.

IN: Riewoldt (Kicking so many goals, will do nothing for us though) - Polo
OUT: Pettifer - Tuck

Yeah he does act lost out there. But he's not going to learn a god damn thing in the VFL.

Would rather someone like a riewoldt who has shown something in the vfl and has actually kicked a bag of goals in the games then letting pussy petts get another game
