Richmond Will Finish.....

[#1 Tigers Fan]

Where do you think Richmond will finish this year. I am sure I will get heaps of young people that will say 16th to try and win a trivual argument with Richmond but honestly where do you think?

 

[SM10]

Honestly, last.

 

[smiddaz123]

Last.

Did you really expect anything else to be said?

I voted last also but in honesty it is out of about 5 teams.

There is going to be 1 team from the 8 that finishes bottom 4 in 08 and if they weren't from interstate maybe they could also win the spoon, but they won't.

Who ever has the worst run with injuries to key players out of the obvious 5, will win the spoon in a very very even season.

100% between 14-16. If injuries accross the board are even to all teams, then 16th, as on paper it is clearly the worst list. But if other teams have a bad run with injuries and Tigers can keep their best team out on the park and guys like Richo and Lids have huge years, 14th or 15th is possible.

14th according to my ladder.

 

[thebigboy]

Between 13-16 but they will improve.

This is a hard one. Can't decide between 14th, 15th and 16th. Dons, Dees, and Bulldogs will all be pushing for bottom-4 spots along with the Tiges in 2008. A tight contest.

Carlton will finish bottom 4 with 0% at the helm

Weren't they expecting Hawthorn to finish 16-14th last year too?

And the Kangaroos.




A large proportion of our losses were last quarter fade outs (which we were often winning midway through the last). We only had one 100+ point blowout compared to 3 in 2006.

Increase the fitness of our kids (75% of the team) and who knows how many of those last quarter fade outs will now be wins.

Richmond will finish bottom-2 for the next 3-4 years because:

1. Miller has not been sacked and continues to make stupid draft decisions each year

2. Your list structure is non-existent. No thought, No planning. Another Miller Legacy

3. Terry wants out. He even baited the tiges to terminate his contract mid last season at a press conference. He's lost his passion. Time for a younger coach with fresh ideas

4. Continuing to play a heap of oldies who are holding you back - esp Johnson, Bowden, and to a lesser extent Richo. Yes, Richo. While the guys in your team, attracting 80% of the forward 50 entries, but spraying them all over the place, there will be no opportunity for any other forwards to develop. The Tiges will be playing 5 players in their starting 22, that will be 30 years of age or older in 2008. So much for the youth policy. lol

5. Disastrous player development. Just shocking. We have seem numerous examples of a "rebound effect" for those lucky few that escape e.g. Roden, Ottens. Shulz and Meyer tried hard to get out during the recent trade period, but failed.

So in summary, The Tiges onfield and off-field are a complete disaster, and have been that way for 28 years. But what's worse, is that they failed to address these problems over the past 12 months. Hence the 3-4 year bottom 2 prediction. When will this nightmare end?

Someone thinks they will finish 1st
