I've been saying it for while now.

We must not win more than 4 games this year. The priority pick is a must. For anyone who was there today (like me) and saw that performance, it's quite clear we have a number of players who clearly do not belong on an AFL list.

And by the way Terry, if you firmly believe we are on the right track with the totally inept game plan you have in place, then your seriously should consider resigning. Our players are totally confused and look disinterested.

IITB you make it sound like winning less than 4 games is an option to us.

We wont win more than 4 games going on our performances in the past fortnight.

Also knowing Richmond's luck and thanks to Ben Holland we get ruled against in court and lose the whole bloody lot.

And we don't need any more soft outside receivers like pettifer, mcmahon, deledio, etc. We need some strong key position players and a bloody good ruckman. Pattison is not the answer.

I don't think the ben holland thing will cost us a thing so don't even consider it. It will be more than 12 months till it goes to court. The AFL is investigating right now I think so who knows.

If we play like we have the past 2 weeks we won't need to tank anyway.

We don't have even one A-Grade marquee player on our list right now.

Foley needs to learn how to break tags before he's considered an A grader.

Wasnt 28 possessions after Terry took him out of the ____ing forward pocket enough for you.

FFS you tank talkers in round 3 are a ____ing disgrace to the club.

You wanna tank? Go support Carlton ya flogs. FFS, its not the way to win a premiership, its a way to get a losing culture that the draftees get comfortable with.

he got tagged by rawlings last week and had about 15 possies so that aint 2 bad! also if voss was coach he could give our mids a good lesson on breaking tags as he used to get tagged quite a bit and he still played well

 

[the ranger]

I pray that we don't tank, but anyway, we look like a 4-5 win team this year. A fortnight ago, I thought we could win twice that but it ain't gonna happen.

How do we win the clearances by such a large margin and get smashed? Pathetic entry into the forward line has to be blamed on Wallace's game plan. I think he has 3 or 4 games to pull it together or we start calling for his head.

If we're 1-7, he should go.

Bulldogs
Hawthorn
St Kilda
Geelong

Looks likely that's exactly where we'll be. A smashing from the Cats and it could be all over for Terry at Tigerland. Bring in Sheedy as caretaker for the rest of the season, with his first game against the Bombers in Round 9

Of course, I'd prefer it didn't come to that and we pick up a couple of wins. 3-5 would be acceptable and enough for him to keep his job.

 

[C-Dog]

is it a good sign that the two young players on our list who work the hardest are foley and king off the rookie list, or is it a bad sign???

Nope. I want foley in the guts from the first bounce, not five or 10 mins in. The game was shot after 10 mins. We won't have a choice about not winning more than 4 games this year. Our side and game plane is woeful under wallace. Were you there today? Did you like what you saw? The 2 teams were almost identical from last year. Why were we so poor? What's your take? Are tivendale, pettifer, johnson, richo, bowden, simmonds going to improve any more? These blokes are holding our development back. They're finished. Done. We need more talent injected. We don't have enough right now.

Just out of interest, how many handballs did foley have? Tucks stats, 6 kicks 23 handballs. Bloody horrible. I thought this game was called football? Goals don't come by hand. Collingwood had a stack of players who kicked goals. We rely on 2 or three.

We wont need to tank this year because things will take care of themselves. We're simply not good enough.

agreed, replace the word 'tanking' with losing

I agree.

 

[scarecrow2k1]

We CANNOT and MUST NOT deliberately lose for an entire season on 3 Rounds. Look, we probably will qualify, but we cannot try to lose. It destroys a club. Look at Carlton, they cannot win and they have been doing it for years. St Kilda have all the great picks in the world but missed the finals and are 1-2 now. Losing in this way destroys a culture and does not guarantee sucess. Who is to say our Pick doesn't turn out like Fiora or Tambling? Even if it turns out better, for example like Deledio, will it make that much of a difference on a day like today? Sides like Geelong never truly bottomed out. North never did and came third last year. Collingwood did only for one year, they would have thrashed us still without Thomas and Pendlebury.

In Short, we canot stoop to the levels of Carlton, an extra pick is not worth the stain it puts on the club

I agree with what you are saying phoenix but have a question for you
And I will answer it from my perspective as I ask it.
Round 22 we have 4 wins on the board and sit on the bottom of the ladder having just won our second game in a row and in the best form we have been in all year. Above us Melbourne who have only 4 wins as well but have a better percentage.
The loser of this game gets Natanui and if Richmond lose we also get Rich or Hurley.
If we win we get Rich or Hurley?

I would don the red and blue for the day and hope that the margin was not to much but I could not in all honesty sit back and hope for a win when such a huge prize awaits the loser.

 

[itsintheblood]

Let's not forget carlton get another priority pick if they win less than 5 games. Probably ANOTHER NO 1 PICK!!! ( I think)
