VFL Richmond vs Casey (Melbourne's Reserves): Sunday 3rd of July at Punt Rd from 2:10pm

[Rubber Hips]

How many times did McBean have his opponents beaten on the lead in the last quarter and the delivery was absolutely s**t .Marcon not coming back on hurt us around the stoppages .Rioli didn't do enough but will come in .Callum Moore will make it at AFL level but as a 3rd defender only .

100%
McBean led into space all day only to have the kick to him long...short

 

[Fishtamer]

As usual the vfl listed players in our vfl team break down every scoring chain with s**t disposal. Alot of promise from the boys today really.

 

[Bojangles17]

McBean and Castagna in. If McBean does not get a game this time, then I don't know what he has to do to get a game

Mcbean comes in and make tv first ruck for Maric OUT , castagna in for lambert

 

[Groupie_]

rioli wouldve won the game for us if that campaigner had passed to him

 

[Azzleberry]

Based on today's game, Castagna, McBean & A.Moore (reluctantly) and/or Townsend back in.

Rioli didn't do enough for mine and should play VFL again next week

 

[Bojangles17]

I've got a novel idea for our brains trust , when an 1" of rain is forecast on game day, play *en townso , wtf thought playing 3 tall forward line was a good idea

 

[Lsta062]

If McBean does not get a game I think I'll send a very long winded email to the club and then request they cancel my memberships.

Needs to happen if this club is serious about looking at what we have in the VFL.

Mcbean comes in and make tv first ruck for Maric OUT , castagna in for lambert

To be honest, I think I am just about over the three talls in the forward line. If Hampson doesn't come back, then one of Vickery and Griffiths goes into the rock and the other and Maric go out. McBean and Castagna/Short fill the void in the forward line that Vickery and Griffiths leave.

Just a thought for me.

Rioli may not have got a lot of ball, but he was being played out of position as an inside midfielder. He did also manage to get 12 tackles.

I'd bring him in next week along with Castagna, McBean, Hampson and Drummond/Markov in place of Vickery, Maric, Hunt, Lambert and Broad

I wish

have they worked out if Casatagna is a forward or a back yet

 

[richoBABY]

How'd Ballard go?

 

[Azzleberry]

Castagna's pace and goal kicking today made him look like a genuine forward.. I'd have McBean at FF this week and Castagna in a pocket in the AFL this week

Those changes would be inspiring. I think the gulf between the AFL and VFL performance makes the amount of changes you stated understandeable. Our AFL team got belted by 9th-placed Port while our VFL side took it up to first-placed Casey only to fall short by 2 points.

I'd say:

IN: McBean, Castagna, Hampson, Drummond, Markov and Rioli

OUT: Vickery, Maric, Hunt, Lambert, Broad and Griffiths

Would show that the clubs has had enough. Tough call in regards to Griffiths for instance, but when you are trying to set a standard as a club you need to make tough decisions. 50 or so points regularly is not good enough.

Yeah, this side would probably get demolished by the Bulldogs, but it will hopefully increase standards in the long run.

great call..

 

[Gentlemen]

have they worked out if Casatagna is a forward or a back yet

His disposal still seems a bit suspect to play in the backline, wouldn't mind seeing him forward in the team with Short staying back.

Butlah will be delisted at seasons end

The Oval is so close to the oval you can just stand outside and watch without even paying!

It's free, if you have a membership anyway.

 

[69vintage]

have they worked out if Casatagna is a forward or a back yet

Definitely a backman ,he kicked too many goals as a defensive forward i don't know what he was thinking .

 

[Speedie41]

It's free, if you have a membership anyway.

Not free then, if I had a membership I would still be paying.

Your only paying for the ones. Reserves is bonus.

 

[Grechy]

There are times when Andrew Moore looks like a seriously good player.

 

[Grechy]

How'd Ballard go?

I think his stench is still at the ground.
