Hang on is this a Richmond hone game?


Bizarre isn't it. Supposedly some of these shifted games were with a view to where teams are meant to be playing the following week, but both Richmond and Brisbane are due to play at the MCG in R19. Meanwhile this week they've moved two all Vic games up north and kept the two MCG games as is, plus of course sending our team from a safe place to a place of danger. :drunk:

Would like to know how Tredrea's stats debut - 2005 stack up, until injuries and the dreaded decoy role sunk so much of his output.

Even just plodding with average numbers 2006 - 2010 should have seen him smash many others but he had a coach actively sabotaging his returns (and Warren being a club first man was ok with it).

Not including 2009 of course. He could've been having a 2009 every year.

Unpopular opinion incoming, but I reckon Fevola was better than Tredders at their respective peaks. Fevs stats read off as someone who played in a flag contender year in, year out, not for the perennial wooden spooners. He's incredibly underrated and if he played in a side competing for flags or just wasn't a dickhead off the field, he'd be on par with Buddy as the best KPF this century.

Fev was undoubtedly a champion, but they're hard to compare. It was an era where CHF and FF were genuinely different positions instead of the modern era where they're all just key forwards.

I don't think we're as good in the early 2000s if we swap Tredders for Fev. Still good, but Tredders was so much more than just a goalkicker.

I agree and I can't even see the link.

In hindsight I think we really fluffed taking Williams overs Robertson in the draft. Very good signs he’ll become a very good player and a young centre mid which is exactly what we need
Let's wait til Williams has a few AFL pre seasons to see if he can get to AFL standard fitness first. He could be the explosive mid we neeed.

I'm not sure that Robertson is the kind of mid we need more of

He was taken the pick before Williams.
