Amazing what some supporters will settle for in the way of achievement.

Yes you were all quite proud when you "won" the Kreuzer Cup and the way you got Captain Pressure Point. Fine "achievements" that they were.

Still, I do indeed regard contributing to the general cause of good sportsmanship by preventing the dubious likes of your dodgy club getting yet more undeserved fruits of the questionable practices that litter your history and participating in our games showpiece and thus further sullying the integrity of the competition with your presence as truly an achievement to take pride in.

Anyone who really loves the game and what it's supposed to stand for would.

Now kindly go away.

I think this can go in the preview thread.
Not threadworthy in its own right.

If that is the best you can contribute to our board, then don't bother in future.

 

[Rodney Dangerfield]

Out - A.Maric
In- anyone. My Auntie Lorraine is fit?

 

[Rubber Hips]

OUT Injured or players needing a rest or surgery ( eg Maric)

 

[Dr Awkward]

The rest of the year is about development. We need to figure who to keep and who to delist.

May as well give Browne a go. And FFS don't play McGuane in the backline.

 

[DustinsGuns]

I'm not convinced we are out of the finals race just yet Tiger heads. Yes we need to win our remaining games, but wins that looked unattainable two months ago like the Blue and the Bombers look a lot more achievable.

I'm more worried about the Dockers and Brisbane away. Until we can't make the finals, I still reckon we should play our best side. Once we can't, then start bring back the Astbury's, Elton's and Helbig's

IN: Derrickx,

 

[In the Jungle]

IN: White, is he back from suspension? Griffiths

OUT: O'Hanlon and McGuane

Speaking to Matt Honsby Saturday before the game, he concluded;
Both Griffiths, King will be available for selection.....
The coaches will decide whether to keep either Post, or McGuane, to allow Griffiths back in.
King if they think he's ready will come in for A.Maric.
White has 1 week to go from suspenstion....
What is anyone's thoughts on O'hallon , although he's taking baby steps, he seems to be improving (thaat obvisouly goes with playing a few consectitive games). He appears to be adjusting to the tempo, & reading of the game?

cutting to the chase, all is good, but right now as we speak, adjusting to the tempo etc is not what is required. We really need to go in with all guns blazing. But having said that, I really cant see who gets the nod in front of him, bar A Maric, so I would take Ohanlon from that choice.

you'll be a long time waiting for Nahas to go out.

 

[tugga]

you'll be a long time waiting for Nahas to go out.

Has been in our top 3 or 4 players since the bye.

 

[richolovesgoal]

you'll be a long time waiting for Nahas to go out.

Why? He provides nothing defensively, he can't crumb, he's not quick, he makes shocking decisions.

He plays 5 bad games and then 1 good one and stays in the side, I try my best to get around him but I can't, I'm sick of him.

 

[richolovesgoal]

Has been in our top 3 or 4 players since the bye.

I don't agree, I think the fact that he runs around and jumps up and down a lot fools people. He was good last week, yesterday he was woeful. And his 4 goal game against Melbourne was one of the worst 4 goal games I have ever seen.

 

[Groupie_]

I reckon we will smash Carlton.

Tiges by 40+ points.

 

[Foleys Footy]

Has been in our top 3 or 4 players since the bye.

Says who? He played well against Gold Coast and while he kicked 4 against Melbourne if you watched that whole game you couldn't make a case for him that he was any good. Yesterday he again finished with 3, but had 8 posessions and virtually no impact on the game, as silly as that may sound. He will stay in the side, im not saying drop him but next season we need another answer. Last year against North in round 4 he had 30+ and kicked 3... He's gone backwards at a rapid rate this year.

This. He looks quick because he takes small steps.

 

[Ned_Flanders]

IN: King/Verrier, Griffiths, (Browne)
OUT: lil Maric, McGuane, (Maric - only if injury no good)

FB: Morris Rance Moore
HB: Newman Griffiths Houli
CT: Grigg Martin Ellis
HF: Edwards Post Deledio
FF: Nahas Reiwoldt King
FL: Maric Cotchin Tuck
IT: Conca Dea Jackson O'Hanlon

 

[peejay]

he has kicked 11 in the last three weeks and has 25 for the season - on track for a mid thirties year - his best result in a year. Also he has kiced 25 .12 so he is the only player in our team who is a reliable kick at goal.

To suggest he is not earning his keep seems a little strange.

 

[richmond_14]

Ivan does look tired. Can't blame him.

Gus might be worth giving another go.

Still think either Post of Griffiths should be in the forward line. I think we can have Post/Griif, Riewoldt and McGuane in the same forward line without seeming too tall.

Surely you cannot be serious! I swear some people do not watch Richmond games and obviously didnt see Angus Graham play for Coburg on Saturday! He is a waste of space. He will never make it in the AFL and giving him another chance there is just denying someone a spot who may actually make it. And surely the guys saying Post will come out are kidding? He did a great job. If Griff is back id be happy to see one go to CHF and one CHB. Maric will surely come out for Griff if fit. Also, Arnot has done a hammy and is out, so stop suggesting him to come in.

Yes. We need a big target up forward to take the heat of Jack for 5 minutes. McGuane is not going to be that. Post was good in defence yesterday, let him stay there for a few weeks at least.

Giving the Tiges a win in every game and the obvious favorites a win and the 50/50 to home teams the Tiges finish 8th, if we have one loss then we finish 9th. Highly unlikely but not impossible. And spot on with our beat team until its confirmed we are out.
