Selection is a coaches job, so many times this ****wit chooses the wrong players. Andrew Browne Round 1 kicked it off. He is so hopeless lets get rid of him ASAP.

Thursfield should be ****ing playing you knob Wallace, even the maligned McMahon should be so ****ing stupid! Raines????? you brought him in because you were in a panic! He has been hopeless 2 weeks in a row. You chose Newman as captain also a shit choice.

Thursfield had a virus and was a late withdrawal.

McMahon is being disciplined the way people demand Wallace should discipline players (as was Thursfield prior to his stalled recall FWIW - for not putting in over the pre-season).

I'll let you take Raines up with the 200 people on this board who have claimed he's a great player in the making and leave it at that - I've called it like it is on him for years now.

I have been one that supported Raines because I thought he could actually perform at the level but the last 2 weeks he has been beaten by opponent and given us 0 drive.

Daniel Connors...slow, lazy...never to don Richmond jumper ever again

Essendon are known for their fitness/speed and running out games


Why bring in the slowest player on the field? Should have put in Edwards or King

Yeah Edwards hasnt played the best and King is not in favour but if you want to match up with the opposition then pick a side that can keep up...

At one stage there was Jackson, Collins and Tuck in for centre bounces...they were trounced...Its good to put players in there for experience but if they havent had time in th ecentre together why trial it in a big game??

Ok, so which youngsters do we have to elevate?

He's always been beaten by his opponent when he actually had one RFC, and his 'drive' has invariably only ever been handballs to nowhere, runs to waiting tacklers, poor decison making and Campbell kicks which set up the receiver for a turnover and a smack round the ear hole for their trouble.

Do you play the relatively committed bloke who is still crap in all the areas he needs to be decent in hoping he gets better (Raines), or the more skilled player who lacks size, grunt, confidence and heart (McMahon)?

Nah, you hope blokes like Meyer, Casserley and Connors render both of them irrelevant, then curse your luck on all three thinking you should have at least one to go on with.

You elevate Vickery for a start and we have to see what Thomson has got going for him. And we need a CHF or FF with some size I dont care if it is Riewoldt/Hughes/Post/Gourdis/Putt just put someone in!

The way Meyer was playing late for Coburg was exciting I agree Rayzor. I dont know whats going on but I cant wait until we have a new coach! It will bring something new to the club and this virus that TW has going through the club will be gone.

the players are the biggest problem yet they get off the line free again
if they cant play for the coach it says a whole lot about them too

Well I can you blame them??? He has different standards for different players in terms of selection. He changes gameplans constantly. He has been there for 4 and a bit years and we havent won more than lose in a season.

Im not kidding myself, its TW!

Thomson's been injured and Vickery has shown f-all...yet.

He was doing nothing compared to his junior potential and his first few games mate.

I'd rather keep the bloke who's found out a lot about our list along the journey and will Tivendale the cancerous ones rather than have a fresh coach who has to learn what Wallace has the hard way.

if we have players who believe its up to them to sack the coach, believe that if they lose its not them its the coach and believe that they arent the ones to blame , it wouldnt matter who was coaching us, simmonds king johnson have helped the new coach out they have stamped their own papers

I agree what those players did was poor and the wrong thing to do, however its because the board hadn't acted yet. The fact it got out is the issue we shouldn't even ****ing know this. Im sure players have voiced concerns about coaches prior to there sacking in the past.

Same. I thought he was better than Mcmahon because he actually defends but has been poor, playing from behind.

Not even attacking at all, confidence?? who knows.

If TW hasnt lost the group well honestly I dont know that second half there was no effort at all.I went to the game with a bomber supporter and he said to me why on earth TW moves Delidio in to the forward line and doesnt leave him were he does his most damage in the guts along with Tambling who he always moves to.He said that was working fine for us in the first half.I agree these guys are moved up and down in a game and they dont have a chance to settle in a position. Simmonds should be back in the VFL he's a disgrace and shows lack of effort.

Hi first post. bit about myself have been a Richmond supporter for 40 years now and have lived Qld for 33 of those years. But enough is enough. Im glad I have found this site as I need to voice my frustration in supporting the club. I will always support them but I can't sit quietly anymore. TW does need to walk and not leave it to rnd 12. He may jag the odd win here and there but when it comes to coaching a team to victory in big games such as last years against Carlton, this years against carlton and last night with big crowds he just does not have it. So the club should relize this and ask him to resign.

I reckon it is almost a certainty that Wallace will get the sack in the mid year break.

Then you guys will come out with your interem coach (whoever that may be?) and smash our mob!

I can see it a mile off.

Cuzzy will be back too.

We wouldnt beat you anyway but with all that happening it will be funny.
