The part about Richmond being a genuine premiership contender looks funny now.

Ahh Dim Dem.. Yeah he’s written a lot of really inaccurate articles pertaining to us over the years.

Dem and Demmer!

Well I stand corrected. Where has this guy been all my life. Absolute gold.

 

[Tom14]

Oh dear oh dear where on earth would we have been able to find anyone to intercept

The idea the Dunkley wouldn't add anything to our midfield defense is just ... wow even we on here knew he would do that!

Shame our defense is so sucky and individualistic too ...

Bit of a difference there between regurgitating stats (which I enjoy doing) and the eye test.

While we were a good clearance side in raw numbers that was propped up by the high number of stoppages we had in our games, and defensively often our biggest issue was conceding clean breaks for the opposition.

Dunks pretty much fixed that for the most part and but for him slipping maybe we'd be celebrating back-to-back (probs not because Joe would have retired).

It's not just because he's got it wrong but who on earth bothers to read through all his crap ? He repeats himself 6 or 7 times in the one article just to fill up space.

It's fine to have no idea but to have your articles as a boring repetitive read is a bigger sin. It's fairly embarrassing they bother to print it.

The header is we need to make serious changes , what were they then ?

 

[martinson]

Getting stuck into Dunkley was a classic.

Everyone in footy knew getting Dunkley for what we did was like gold.

Except this drongo.

as a stopgap for next year. He is a forward ruck at 198cm who got desisted by the Suns 4 years ago after a drugs saga. Has been playing well at the Sharks in the VFL.

Personally I don't see it. He looked quite tubby and slow on the VFL stream that I saw but the person I spoke to apparently has connections to the Sharks (or could be just another typical Labrador/Ashmore character blowing smoke up my ass).

Off field and culture issues aside any chance we end up like Melbourne after they won the flag?

They haven't got back there because of a lack of a key forward. The off field issues aside we are not to different:

• strong defence
• strong midfield
• forwards:

Pickett - Cameron
Fritsch - Lohman
Neal bullen/Melscham - Ah Chee
McDonald - Hipwood
Luke Jackson

They had brown and McDonald and Jackson none of them outstanding on their own but the sum of the parts where more then the individual. Not too dissimilar to our key forwards take brown and replace him with a younger player they fall away take out Jo and replace him with a younger player....

I think our forward line is still strong Hipwood is capable of 40 to 50 goals a season Lohmann and Morris will only get better can't see a massive drop off we only have 4 players over 30 and all are still playing good football

I am hoping the main difference is ball movement.
After 21’ they went back to a slow a laborious down the line style of play and haven’t been able to consistently play a quicker handball and run style of game since.

I am not sure how many exactly but we took over 20 forward 50 marks in the Grand Final. That is ball movement and movement in the forward line not necessarily the quality of key forward.
