Game Day NAB 2: Richmond vs Port Adelaide @ Lavington Sports Ground - Sat 4:40pm 14/03/15

[DontArgue4]

I would put Dusty and Griff in, along with Conca and maybe Astbury too. Rest the others like Cotch, Ivan, Jack, etc. Take out a few of the youngins but leave the rest.

 

[Calcium Man]

We go in full strength and Port cant lose. If they win, we are s**t. If we win, well they had a B grade side in.

IMo Bring in the kids. No injury's to our main guns and gives the kids another go.

It's exactly what the bullies went through with us

 

[Tiger Claw]

Things I'll look out for in this game is knowing where to run and being there/sticking to the game under pressure and nailing it.

If the pressure is non existent that's a bummer and we should look at annihilating them.

 

[telsor]

Everyone who didn't play last week gets a run this week.

Then next week look at who needs another run.


Who we're playing, and the team they're going to field (and if we win) don't really come into it, it's all about what gives us the best prep for round 1.

 

[A Tiger 4 lyf]

On the latest training video, big ben has his left shoulder strapped. has he had more troubles with it?

 

[Hot tigers]

Connar Ellis? Corey Menadue?

Sorry was having a lazy wine or 5, was meant to read Menadue

they probably think they will be playing on a cow paddock. they will be pleasantly surprised. LPO is considered one of the best facilities in country footy.

It's actually been spoken that because the club travels enough through the year, and with round 1 being away, we would like to limit that travel and give the kids who havent had much experience with travelling a shot.
However there's no doubt that with 3 games in 3 weeks and a 6 day break after our first hit out against WC, there'd be some man management going on.

I think it is a bit of a shame and shows the shambles the preseason can be at times because you guys at near full strength against our kids should do it very easy (50+ I'd think) so the hit out really loses a lot of benefit to your side other than fitness. I remember a few years back we played a b grade Geelong, GWS and some other bottom side in our preseason, smashed them all and then started the season terribly. Not getting those real hit outs just hurts prep.

Though it looks like you guys have Norf the next week so you should get a real solid hit out then.
