Did anyone ever think he was going to amount to something? I certainly didn’t

Didn't direct it at you mate.
And I've already seen people say that the club should be punished, so clearly people are getting their knickers in a twist.

No, not at all.
A risk free pick but should be cutting him loose pretty quickly too. Massive bloke with back issues, pass.
Fawcett out long term is a shame, would have been nice to start developing another KPF in the VFL this year.
What happened there?

"The risk of him playing this weekend is going to be too high… We’ve got a five-day break leading into the Carlton game and he’s too important for us."
Adem Yze has ruled Dustin Martin out of our Opening Round clash against Gold Coast in his press conference this morning.

Dustin Martin will miss Saturday’s Opening Round clash against Gold Coast.
****ing Meehans fault. He should be able to stop blokes getting corkies in a contact game.

Sir God Groupie,
As just like Homer Simpson,now he knows he's a PEANUT,he will start eating himself.
Won’t stop the mob from blaming him though, just so vindictive some of the posters on here. I mean, blaming him for Lynch and Gibcus missing long stretches of games, just wow
Hey guys, I'm back.
The boys look slow and unfit. As long as Meehan is in a job with us, we will go no where. Mark my words. Absolute ****ing disgrace of "high performance" manager.
We as members and supporters need to do something and make some noise.

Lol, we also look totally disorganised back mid and forward, and getting smashed in contests, and players making errors of skill and decision making.
All Meehan's fault no doubt.
You are happy with our fitness levels? You're defending the indefensible. Meehan has to go
How can you possibly judge how fit the players are from one half of footy? Especially in high humidity/heat and facing a 5 day break to a huge match and with only 11 players who have played 30 or more games in their roles for Richmond in the team.
You are going off way too early here.

Agree the Suns looked bigger , stronger, fitter and more muscled up than us. Louie is a fraud. If you’re fitness is not up to standard then if injuries don’t occur you will still be exposed on the scoreboard even if teams are mediocre.

He’s CB17 according to a poster friend
I watched the Lions / Blues game last night.
Charlie Curnow's arms are bigger than our entire squad combined. That guy is a elite physical player. We have no one close to that level of fitness & thats what a power forward needs to look like. Balta is not close to that physicality at this point.
Beach muscles don't mean much.
The big tickets are core strength and the biggest upper leg muscles, quads, hamstrings and glutes. We have Dustin Martin who would be right up there for strength where it counts most. Lynch never has any issues holding his ground. Nankervis is a beast. And Graham is also strongly put together where it matters. No coincidence we look a bit light on for strength with all those guys missing.

LOL . Have you watched the footy?
The performances on the weekend suggest your "beach muscles" call is bogus. Our team was bullied by a group of kids who are known for being meek & Charlie Curnow looked like Hercules. Everyone here is noticing that our group seem under-prepared, not fit enough, getting pushed around and not developed in body size. Ryan looks barely bigger than when he began, so does Dow. MRJ has not developed an AFL body at all. If they want Balta to be a power forward then they need to change his body shape. Its one thing to hold off a player to defend them, a totally different thing to man handle a bloke to actually mark it, contested.
Its why Noah was the #2 best Contested INTERCEPT Mark player in the AFL in 2023 & only managed 1 contested mark on the weekend. Contested Intercepts VS contested target marks are 2 very different skillsets. Noah is probably built better to be a leading/mark guy - but he just has no feel for it in regards to timing his runs etc.
Why mess with a guy who is an elite intercept marker & a poor one on one Contested Marker, especially when your team is, likely, to be smashed on I50's due to a slapstick, middling midfield? Yze might have an idea, but it makes no sense to me as i have watched these guys their whole careers & literally seen this same shit multiple times fail.
