They just keep replaying 2 of the same clips against Fremantle over and over and one of them was after the game now all of a sudden he's public enemy number 1. If they actually saw the live games of how hard he works off the ball and setting up the forward line structures they might get off his...
What are the thoughts here on Grigg? Apologies if this has already been talked about. To me he is not pulling his weight and is a bit of a passenger. For an outside player he just doesn't damage other sides by foot like you would hope an outside winger with plenty of time & space should. He...
Matty Dea for me. Has enormous courage and is an excellent stopper, only 17 games so far and I think with more time he'll gain more confidence to take his game to a higher level offensively
I had surgery today at St Vincent's east melbourne and was next to Tom Derrickx in the surgery waiting bay and in the recovery room afterwards, he had a protective cover on one arm and was having surgery to repair his other hand, fracture and tendon damage I overheard, he was wearing his footy...
How many top draft picks have Melbourne had the past few years, it hasn't helped them one bit. The team that won the flag this year Sydney had only 3 top 20 picks in their whole 22, Mcveigh, Bolton, Jetta. At the end of the day they most likely will be very good but you can only fit 22 players...
I think after todays game he pretty much sealed his fate. I don't think he can get any better and has become a real liability. Id prefer to give a chance to a rookie from one of the state leagues. We must keep turning over the list to weed out the guys with poor disposal efficiency, we can...
Oh well, thems the breaks. Is hard to find positives from that but here goes: 1) It Is very hard to beat anyone at subiaco and to lose by 22pts isn't as bad as it could of been, They had more to play for 2) I think the guys toughed it out today but sadly Once again we lose a game by our poor...
Once, just ONCE this season I'd like to watch Richmond and not have that dwarf tony shaw barracking for us to lose, every game I watch on Foxtel all the commentators sound like they have money on our opposition and hate us doing well, it's so blatant. We should all send complaints to fox footy...
If that was true, which I don't think it is ($2m over 5yrs is ridiculous for a small forward) our club would be doing the supporters a disservice by not taking a 2nd rounder, especially given our past 2 drafts have been heavily compromised. That pick could be used to target a key defender, key...
Is it better we learn these lessons now about our depth, our character, and nerve in close games? Instead miss finals and go to another draft and recruit what we lack in a key defender, back up ruck, another forward option, get another pre season into the younger bodies and put on some size...
I'm physically and emotionally drained, I've never been so shattered as a supporter. I usually like to look for the positives but there is nothing positive about this result. I really hope the club takes a real hard look at itself, there were only 8 players out there tonight who deserve a pass...
A wins a win, and granted our form hasn't been as good as the first half of the year we are tonight equal 8th. If we kicked straight against Fremantle and adelaide then we could of won those games, that can be easily fixed, at least our effort is there. If we can head up to Cairns and play well...
I think our drafting has been better over the last 2-3 drafts, there are always going to be hits and misses but compared to our past blunders we are getting smarter at the draft table. I think sometimes you have to go with what you need and not purely next best available. Let's all remember...
Cotchin 22, Riewoldt 23, Rance 22, Morris 23, Connors 23, Edwards 23, Martin 21, Grimes 20, Griffiths 20, Elton 19, Ellis 19, Dea 21. I think a lot of people forget how young these guys actually are, composure in tight games will only come after experience, we did against the saints. Look at...
No team that loses has a plan B, Both teams have their game plans to implement and whoever fulfills theirs consistently through the game will win. Richmond played a great 1st quarter BUT that was it. Where as Adelaide after qtr time played consistent footy, they cracked in for the ball winning...
