dont worry, they will suck all the confidence out of him now too

Great post. This is another reason why l just don’t get the SC.
guy plays up a storm in the AFL and now can’t get a look in because he played two average practice matches?

 

[fargothegreat]

Cotchin for hopper. Mansell for Cotchin and Ralphsmith for Dusty. Clarke for Mansell on the bench. I don’t think we lose much on ball.

I think it’s a better structure. 3 forwards 3 smaller runners. Hopefully we lock the ball on better than the first two rounds.

Either way the Cotchin forward experiment should be over.

Cotchin's hardly played forward in the first two rounds.

It’s like some of them don’t even watch us

why is ross in ?

we racing the Hawks

 

[Karp3_dm]

Just saw the teams
GAGF Dima, lying as usual, said he was competing for same role as Dusty
Confirmed hates Cumbo

 

[Pattiger]

Listen to Dimma’s press conference. He’s a 3-time Premiership coach and we are a systems based team. He literally said in his presser a few hours ago that Clarke plays a role that Richmond does not measure on the stats sheet - it’s about running patterns and the like. Clearly it’s all about defensive running, creating space, filling holes, providing cover, creating turnovers etc….

So why on earth do you still think the team is selected based predominantly on things you see on a stats sheet, when Dimma literally says the complete opposite?

Like Cumberland ability to kick goals ?

Collingwood will rip us a new one if they play the way they’ve been playing.
then again we might win if they don’t, its 30% chance.

 

[Coach_Required]

So you say none of the ins apart from Ross warrant a game but you say Cumberland should be in the team. Lol.

Ralphsmith -dud
Mansell - dud

Cumberland - isn't a dud

Yep that's what I'm saying. Dimma is playing favourites again instead of picking players that have potential to win matches.

 

[Al Heimer]

is obvious Dimma wants to lose

Yeah like lets sack the 300 game 3 time premiership coach now cos he is either stupid or tanking

The Geelong game was a shoot out, then the Pies came over the top.
Tonight's game was more of a slow tempo grind, maybe that's the way to approach it.
Controlling the tempo would be key, because they would seek to run fast.
Target N Daicos and Noble early on.
Probably play MRJ a little more in defence.
Bolton has been hit and miss, hope he steps up.

The blokes been abusing the weed too much

We got the next Michael Jordon on our books yet he’s too high to see it

let Noble have the ball is sensible policy imo - he will give it back to you, 50/50 at worst

no hopper, no martin, I kinda don't have hope- anyone can change my mind on this?

just wish we could get anything close to a consistent first team.

 

[Timothy Luncheon]

Team looks great. Sonsie isn’t playing because he’s not fully fit, and he might yet be named as sub. Cumberland can’t just be chucked into the team and go back to his old role when he’s learning a new one for a while in the VFL, which should be good for him. And he clearly didn’t do enough in the VFL, and would upset our structure if he was in. Macca/Ralphsmith to play wing or 7th defender, Ross for short, Mansell for Dusty, Bolton to play more mud with Clarke in his spot. Pretty great that we have this depth. May or may not win, it’s a free hit. But either way selection was pretty good, stop melting

Bears need a bigger leadership group. 13 campaigners isn't getting it done

 

[Rioli2Rioli]

Love how people freak out over selection every week like we have any clue about the intricacies of what Dimma actually needs holistically.

Same people freaked out over JGTI playing round 1 and he was instrumental in stopping 2 certain goals for Carlton in the last quarter.

Even if we lose tomorrow night, it doesn't mean selection is wrong - I know this might be hard to fathom but sometimes the other team is simply better on the day.

Also notice not a word about Mansell after he came onto the ground and kicked a goal in the first minute last week

He was public enemy #1 prior to the game

 

[tropicaltiger]

Ralphsmith -dud
Mansell - dud

Cumberland - isn't a dud

Yep that's what I'm saying. Dimma is playing favourites again instead of picking players that have potential to win matches.

its a long season dimma going for pace and fittest players. last quarter if you watch games.... late...unfit guys puffing, cramping and panting, superfit guys running around full of steam. mansell and ralphsmith will need to clock up the kms along with macca, toranto, rioliboys, clark and co if we want to match it with the pies

 

[sregit]

markov will tell mcrea our game plan

How could he? He never understood it when he was at Richmond.

 

[terrybull]

Has the round 4, 1977 vs Collingwood vibe about it - played in front of more than 91 000 fans (I was there). Turned to be a fizzer as Magpies won easily by around 20 points.

This time the prediction is about the same so hopefully we surprise them this time…
