I didn’t just mean for today. If you honestly believe those 6 players are part of our next premiership team then maybe you should consider supporting Carlton — their supporters are excellent at blind belief in plodders and false hope
No one knows what our next flag team will look like
At the start of 2017 no one would of believed you if you said Castagna, Butler, Grigg

We were also missing some very highly talented youngsters. Lalor, Smillie, Faull, Trainor, Gibcus. Sims and Alger also look good and were not in the team from the 2024 draftees. And we have 3 top end picks and a handful of useful looking academy players/father-sons about to join the
Clarke and Gray also to add to the group.

No one has a crystal ball, if I did I’d be on a yacht filled with supermodels in the Bahamas instead of posting on bigfooty on a Sunday afternoon from my couch in suburban Melbourne

Did anyone see Yze's post game presser

'The coaching team at 3Q time raised implementing the sub I vetoed it was my call

Couldn't be bothered using the sub.

The upside we have a fresh player available for the reserves game'.



What a train wreck presser

you would expect such a press performance from Joe Biden without his meds.

One more year to go.............

Who the fek knows what our next premiership side looks like? Where 3-5 years away from even challenging for the finals. To just throw away blokes that are performing now.. when we are winning games no one thought we would at the start of thw year is just stupid.

Young, especially has shown signs of being a solid defender. Has held his own since coming back into the side considering the ball is consistently coming inside D50. You cant call him a plodder. Ridiculously short sighted.

Sonsie has already improved out of sight since being given a stable starting gig. Who knows how he will develop.

In 2016 you would have called most of our bottom 6-8 plodders, bloody Shane Edwards was a turnover merchant for his first 2-3 years... and yet look at 2017.
 

9) Richmond is closer to success than expected​

Coming into the season there was a genuine concern that the Tigers might only land one or two wins given their young and inexperienced list. It seemed like a tough road ahead for second-year coach Adem Yze, but the club is well ahead of expectations at this point of the year. Yes, there are still some significant inconsistencies week to week, and quarter to quarter, but the ability to turn momentum, and take assets away from the opposition is already in the young Tigers' kit bag. With two games remaining for the season after Saturday's loss to St Kilda, five wins under their belt, and plenty of experience pumped into a host of young players, Richmond has achieved everything it needed to and more in 2025 to propel back up the ladder in the coming seasons. - Gemma Bastiani
 
before mcintosh's brain fart we had chances but they panic in front of goal

Terrible take. Has been a great player for us since crossing from the Suns. We don't win the flag in 2019 without him and his physical presence in games has helped immensely on most occasions. He's had a bad year no doubt but I'm glad he's playing on, will help the young forwards develope quicker with him down there.
I don't get this, if you want him to coach, then pay him as a coach. Otherwise pick him on current form and not what he was (a superstar) In 2019.

...and his on field mentoring would want to dramatically improve

Damning statistic that is a bit of a pattern in our play. Last 2 years are littered with us getting smashed in uncontested possessions and marks and also tackles
I'm no.tactical expert but if coaches like Ross Lyon wanna throw extra players behind the ball and then play keepings off, then that feeds high uncontested possession for oppo and low tackle count for us. Yze is teaching a different style and sticking to it irrespective of the negative tactics of other coaches. This is a positive. There's bigger picture issues than the odd late season win in a dead rubber game 1st year of a rebuild.
 
Before Kmacs brainfart I forget who it was but he had Balta alone in the goal square and chose to kick to a contest and turned it over. Would have iced the game.
Not just that, as I said, it was an if-and-if day. Lynch missing all those easy shots would have been enough. Bottom line we were better for 3 quarters and still lost no point blaming a couple efforts.

Young and Mansell won't be going anywhere; the others wouldn't give a toss, and you're right, they won't take us anywhere. On Young, I have more faith in him being there than in Gibcus.

Townsend, for me, was the surprise packet and was huge.
