Changes vs Richmond

[dergert]

I really can't see us winning this game as I did with west coast.
However, I am really excited to see us play against a good team. Richmond's backline is where we will struggle, they have an answer for all of our forwards... Really important for our mids and backs to keep pumping it in there.

From the Richmond board. Gees these blokes are cocky for a team that really wasn't very convincing against a very poor Carlton.

They may well beat us, but I would be disappointed if we didn't get within 5 goals.

And when did Astbury all of a sudden become Steven Silvagni?

If they send Rance and Chaplin to Boyd and Redpath respectively, Stringer or Crameri could get off the chain.

If they send Rance to Stringer, on the basis he looks most dangerous, then Chaplin goes to Boyd and I would actually back Boyd against him, Chaplin is terrible.

When did your talls become carey? Astbury has shown excellent form last year on goid forwards and backed that up in preseason. If he comes back in he will hold one of your talls well enough. He would be your best defender.

This is a good one, at least for a Monday.

When did I say our talls were Carey? Astbury is hardly superman.

I don't get why Goodes is mentioned as being dropped? I thought he played really well and is a hard body that we need in the middle

In reply to Goodes,
He's a serviceable player. If we play him we would probably get better results however, I don't see many years left in him and feel the need to play the youngsters would benefit us in the long term.

Bev and the crew elevated him for a reason, so with the need for a bigger body and experience it's unlikely he'd be dropped. It's just something I'd like to see.

Chaplin would play loose chopping out who ever needs it.
Grimes and batchelor play both tall and small quite well so can account for cram or stringer. Leaving rance to play off boyd and provide lots of rebound or float to redpath. Not even considering if we end up playing astbury.

I dead set give up.

Don't think we would allow him just to cruise around defensive 50. I hope Grimes goes to Stringer, Grimes looked average at best on Thursday.

Definitely rate Rance though.

I wonder if they'd let us trade Roughead for him come trade week, probably need to throw in Bonti to get it over the line though.

 

[Doggies7]

Geez Richmond supporters carry a lot of undeserved arrogance... I remember the exact same thing before our game early last year.

Plus a first rounder if your team apparently doesn't score when Astbury plays.

Going off your smart analogy. Did you watch any of his games last year? What are you basing your opinion of him on? Had the better of hawkins, rhoughy, cloke, petrie only time he got beaten was when jonno brown had a good game.

 

[JTCWBFC]

If only they had him against Port in their final last year. Would have won 75-0.

I think we would play batchelor on stringer tbh hes much harder imo and would match up better physically

Copy and paste all you like
But quoting posts can cause shitfests.

astbury lmfao.

I still remember richmond supporters relentlessly heaping chit on him.

Mate, it might be time to piss off back to your own board if your going to keep up this shit. My opinion was based purely around the fact that one of your clowns mate out like he was seasoned veteran that nobody's ever kicked a goal on, then you make out like he'd be our best defender. Yes he's an honest player that's done well in some games. Don't think for one second that we're ever going to agree wholeheartedly or not take the piss out of someone coming here spilling this dribble.

Chill. Just trying to have a discussion.

 

[Lex22]

FWIW, I think the Tigers will win by about 20-30 points, however I wouldn't be shocked if we manage to get up.

That's fine, just stop putting words in my mouth and taking offense to a strange argument that your never going to win over here.
