Disagree completely. You want your best players (who aren't KPP) in the midfield. Why do you think we play Fyfe in the midfield, even though he could go forward and dominate? And our midfield minus Fyfe is way better than Richmond's minus Martin. For Richmond to have any chance of competing with the big boys, they need Martin, Deledio and Cotchin all firing where the game is won. Send Martin forward for bursts, but he must play on the ball for large chunks of games.

Not really a good example, the BEST contested ball player in the comp, of course Fyfe plays midfield.

Against North in Tassie Dusty had 30 touches for barely 200m gained, and the Tigs were embarrassed, pretty much encapsulates my point. Without being disrepectful to Dusty, i think as a player he enjoys the simplicity of playing forward, doesnt have the smarts to 'solve the puzzle' of being an elite mid. As it is theyve turned him into Cotchin mk2, getting crap touches in the back half that opp. coaches will gladly concede.

Put it this way, much happier him getting 30 touches around centre square, than him getting 18 as a half forward, and getting half a dozen one on ones v someone like Sutcliffe. Pretty sure he was #1 in comp for one on one contests won last year.

Whereas Fyfe gets 26 you know he's likely won 5 centre bounce clearances = pure entries.
 
Every week 8-10 pages of discussion for possible changes to the sub or speculation as to who is injured/may need replacing or how we possibly squeeze games into Sherro, Croz lest they leave at year end or why Mzungu isn´t in only for the official team sheet to come out with no changes.
Well we could all go on the mainboard instead and remind everyone how good we are in every thread, relevant or not, hawks supporter style
 
In: Pearce, Spurr, Mzungu
Out: Sutcliffe, Duffield, Johnson

Sheridan as sub.
