Really pleasing to see Morton back in the lineup, even if it is only on the bench. Hopefully he plays and it isn't too long until he gets his spot back in the Richmond lineup.

good to hear.

 

[Madtiger2006]

Hope Morton and Griffiths have big ones for Coburg. Miller and Hislop need to be forced out

 

[tunksy]

All the best to mitch, hope he comes out firing! 30 poss ang 5 goals!

good luck to the bloke hope to see him back on a wing in the senior line up soon.

Really good news. Was just wondering about this earlier today. Has brightened my mood somewhat

Hopefully he plays with plenty of desperation and is back in the senior team soon.

 

[Spluff]

Time for Morton to put his hand up for a spot in the senior side. He has the talent and a firing Morton is exactly what we need in our side.

Interested in seeing how Jakobi goes, he's got a lot of talent and does everything right.

 

[Gentlemen]

Jakobi in the seniors

Griffiths named at CHB.

coburg always write it up silly, doesnt mean he'll actually play there. (but htey have played him in stints there).

 

[Bojangles17]

good to see MM back, I really hopes he kicks on at punt Rd

 

[docko911]

Jakobi in the seniors

This, i really think Jakobi could develop into a gun mid if we give him the time.

 

[telsor]

For anyone thinking of going, it's Sunday, in Cranbourne.

 

[Woefully Inept]

Griffiths named at CHB.

haha Adam Potter hates it when they name players in the right position, always tells the General manager to mix it up

will be there on Sunday taking stats as always, can't be any worse than last week...

should be quite a few changes after the shambles, but it'll be interesting to see who gets Fevola, and how they deal with him, whether Gourdis is down with the boys will be interesting

I think we'll go down by 30 though, lacking class this year and Casey's form has been pretty decent, D Murphy to kick another 4!

Didn't realise you did stats, that's great! Keep us updated as VFL stats can sometimes be hard to come by. Hope Morton plays well.

Neither of those two should be coming in for a while, Morton hasn't played in how long?
Griffiths is to important to be rushed back, its a marathon not a sprint

Big day on the stat sheet last week, what was it, 3 inside 50's, 100 handballs, no taps or shepards, and 30 kicks????
Mitch Morton is ****ed. He wont be at Tigerland next year. If he survives, it will only be because of guys like Hislop and a couple others. How about he does what is asked before we just give him a game.

Not a huge fan???

I actually do like Morton, but i'm sick and tired of people just posting names for promotion. There's a reason he like others are not getting games. He can't even get a game ahead of Hislop for christs sake. IF I READ ANOTHER GOO SHOULD COME INTO THE ONES POST, I'M GONNA THROW UP! D)

We all know Mitch has had a down couple of months for one reason or another. I don't think anyone is seriously suggesting he should come in straight away, just glad he's back in business. Ideally he would be back in the senior line up soon as he can be a very good player. But how often do "ideal" things happen at Tigerland

Gourdis on the other hand... I'd keep your bucket by your side.

 

[AGRESSION]

Surely Griff wont play CHB. It will be much better when we have our stand alone 2nds. Just out of interest. Do you think Richmond had alot to do with Potter getting the coaching gig, or would that had been mainly a Coburg decision ?? Just curious.

 

[_RT_]

The game on Sunday will be broadcast on VFL radio this week. Those with digital radio can listen on channel Aussie (SEN2)

 

[Hipster Doofus]

Hope Griff can snag 2-3 goals and build his confidence

 

[captain blood 17]

I don't reckon Potter is a coaches butthole. We should be looking to develop one of the current assistants into this role when we go it alone.
I really hope Mitch can make it back, but at this stage, i'm thinking either a trade to Blues/Crows or GWS as they have footballers and other stuff that interest me. And, i'll get smashed on this comment, but if we aren't chasing Taylor Walker, we should look at Hawkins (he may come cheap).

CHB is a great place to learn how to play the game. Griff could dominate in that position.

well unless the club has a perfect win /loss record CB then i think there's a bit to account for in terms of team selection. The case for players like Helbig and edwards earlier in the season was pretty clear to most yet the powers had their way. MM has never been offered the same lattitiude as some when it comes to form and lord knows how much we need a player of his ilk to liven up our front half. His demise has been a blight on an otherwise promising 1st half season...plenty of time to get him right in time for finals
