If Ayres does that, I will personally lead the "let's get rid of Ayres" campaign!!

no doubt that he will!
another one of his things he has to keep persisting with.

I would start both Perrie and Bock on the ground and Bassett is the one that shouldn't even be in the team

Carey @ FF, Perrie @ CHF, McGregor @ CHB and Hentschel @ FB.

FF: Jericho (Carey in a pocket)
CHF: Perrie
CHB: McGregor
FB: Begley (on Brown, with Hentschel in a BP or HBF on their other tall).

Its Jezza'a 2nd game so chances are he will have a stinker. Personally, I want him to have a blinder

How many sausage rolls will he kick??????

Schuback has been given a harsh deal. Should at least be an emergency ahead of Shirley. Hell, I'd play Schuback ahead of Bode.

Agree 100% with that. He hasn't done much wrong with the limited opportunities he's been given. There is quite a few players I would play him ahead of that have been named in our squad for tomorrow night, Bode being one of them.

You've got it right IMO Kane.

I'll go for a minimum of 3 Stiffy. At least that's what I'm hoping for anyway.

If you guys thought the Richmond fans were feral after the Geelong loss you havn't seen anything yet.If we play around the boundary and Gasper and or Kellaway go anywhere near the forward line after the Terry Wallet article during the week I reckon Frawley will need a police escort out of there.

On a more serious note I wouldn't be suprised if Richmond actually win this one.Either way, within 15 minutes of the bounce you'll be ale to tell which Richmond have come to play.As others have mentioned ,who ever kicks 15 goals will probably win.Without Richo it's imperative that Ottens and Brown spend the majority of the game down forward.We arnt winning the centre clearances even though Ottens is winning the taps so Marsh may as well go in the centre.Young Roach and Krakour should be given time in the centre.They seemed to be the only guys playing with spirit last week.

Gasper and Carey will be a funny contest.The battle of the has -beens.Perhaps this game could run either of them back into form.

he is clearly been sent back to get four quartes of footy

Bode was sensational last week when he was on the ground.

I am hoping he is coming back into some form which would be very useful.

Spot on.

Bode was very good last week and if he gets more game time he would be one of our best against Richmond.

Schuback needs match time and he is not going to get it with Crows. I would like to give Schuey as many AFL games as possible but he is not going to learn anything if he sits on the bench. Better to get some match fitness with the Bays

Agree, in that is good player management to send particularly a youngster back to the SANFL for some decent game time when they have had limited opportunities over several weeks. Shuey will be back sooner than later.

We won't win this one.....there's more chance of victory against the Cats or Power in the coming weeks.

I like your sense of humour ant....

Don't really care about the result, even though I tipped Richmond, but I hope the first score of the match is a point for Richmond.
After that go for your life.

Get off our board and never come back.

If you can't even tip us against bloody Richmond, don't offer any more 'advice' to the board.

The only team I never tip against is Port, even when I think we will lose like I did last week.
This game will probably be close.
A good rule is when in doubt, and there is no "bias" involved, go for the home team. Works more often than not.
But as Richmond have problems kicking goals, I placed a little bet on the "first score" being a point for Richmond at $3.60.

 

[spindoctor]

no luck for you then.

that's what you get for tipping against the Crows!

Cant win em all..

Nearly.
The theory was sound, but instead of making a contest, their forwards were on a mission to give frees away at the start of the game.
" "this close.

The second half hasn't started yet (up here), but I'm not sure I'll watch it. That (the first half) was one of the most insipid performances I have ever seen by a side. It literally put me to sleep, although mixing a few beers with antibiotics that taste like cane toads may have helped it.
Not taking anything away from the Crows, as they have had a boomer of a game.
Good come back after the last few weeks, and the "game plan" doesn't look too bad at all now that they had a few weeks practice and are getting it "right".

Well he was sensational tonight, and I have been a real critic of his. Back to 2002 form - but still in short stints from the unterchange bench

Just popping in and saying congratulations for last nights win.

Adelaide never were a team that deserved a 0-4 position. After playing a few of the top teams in the league the media decided to blast you lot.

Well done. Ricutto was brilliant.

Thanks for that mate, and well done for your sportsmanship at a time when you must feel like slashing your wrists at the way they played last night.

Whre do you think Richmond should go from here??? My personal view is that the players aren't playing for their coach or jumper, and perhaps sadly Danny Frawley should stand down, and bring in a less nicer guy, say Rodney Eade, for the balance of the year, to try and bring some steeliness back into the team.

I'd be interested in your thoughts on that.

Yeah for sure mate. Im not really sure what Danny is thinking. Roach got 17 odd possies last week against Geelong - one of the best on the ground for the Tigers. This week, midway through the 2nd term he still isnt on the ground. I mean whats going on there? The kid even stated he'd rather start on the ground to lessen (is that a word?) the nerves but no, Danny wont go with that.

Obviously its not only the coaches fault. Basic skill errors and just the general attack on the footy was once again poor.

I think it would be best if Frawley did stand down. He's had his share and done nothing with it.

Eade would have to be the best replacement. Even over Wallace. I dont think much of Wallace though so.. yea.

Anyway. Hopefully the supporters will grow up a bit and support em through thick and thin.

That's the big question...that they were asking 10 years ago.

This isnt having a go at Tiger fans - (we remember our years under Shaw and watching your club last night was a big reminder!), but I remember it is almost 10 years ago now when Mal Brown got stuck into RFC on the Sunday Football Show and tried to set 'em straight.

It worked for a while too...but they have clearly dropped off.

Once again, they need someone to fire them up in all depts - who's going to do it this time and will RFC handle it better?

YOU LIL BEAUTY

Great game last night and top effort for every player in the Red,Blue and Gold

I was always confident we would roll Richmond and after a nervous first quarter we just simply ran over them

Bock great first game looked good didnt look lost out there and I think he did enough to play again against Geelong. Roo was sensational and played a game winning role in the midfeild McGregor up forward with 5 goals sensational stuff took alot of good pack marks and had no trouble with Gasper

All in all great team efoort and I still believe 2004 is not over we just need to keep working hard, still have Hart,Goodwin,Biglands,Torney and Turbo to come back into this side

 

[Stiffy_18]

Someone HAS to make way for Reilly this week. Who is the odd one out??????

I think we MUST play Reilly at all costs and bring him straight back into the side. So someone has to miss out. My pick is probably Bock
