Miller - melb
MacDougall - wce
Hansen - wce
Merrett - bris
Polak - frem
T Cloke - coll
Franklin - haw
Henschell - adel

all about the same age or younger
all will be better in the long run
It would have been nice to have these guys but most were not there for us to pick.Why? Because they were considered better prospects. I'll give you this, with 20/20 Hansen before Gardnier might have been handy

Merrett - rookie list
Miller - 60 odd in the national draft. I think for Brent Grgic

How can you compare Playfair to Franklin??? I agree he is not going well but when or where did anyone here say he was better than others?
Franklin was #5 in the draft, Playfair was picked at 40 or thereabouts........

I think we need to make some hard decisions but to start comparing pick 5 with a pick 40+ in the draft is ridiculous, of course we'd rather have someone at pick 5.................

Anyone else see a pattern developing?

Just touching on something JUBJUB mentioned earlier...about H playing in the ruck in his earlier games. Do you think he could offer us a 3rd option in the ruck (if needed) and possibly rotate with Ottens and Mooney?

Go back to the Richmond board. I realise you are new, but this sort of stuff just doesn't wash around here mate. Quit while you are behind.

Interesting that for such poor player that others with more knowledge on the game than your good self , are telling your players(Patterison) to play like him

Playfair is a good prospect down on confidence. Ease up on him. He can play the game. Ran rings around us when Geelong smashed us earlier in the season.
Poor shot for goal but has a big motor and some size.
Glad to see Scarlett back in form tonight. He played well.
I am not going to bag Ottens because I think the trade was a reasonable risk at the time with Graham leaving. I just wish the bloke would not take the easy option and drop to his knees to get the ball. Does not help his team and puts him out of the contest.

Lets just cut the bull******** and say he is no world beater and a battler at best, gives his all but as i have stated before, wil not win us a flag as a key forward, doesn't have enough tricks and he has the worst decision making skills i have ever seen, always goes for the wrong option
