why was this kid left to be slaughtered by Big Barry Hall. Why didn't Wallace play Polak who has the size and speed to match him.
Another Wallace mismatch.
mcguane would make a good flanker but is clearly too small to be a kpp; if he only has a bit of speed and agility or bulk he might make it.why was this kid left to be slaughtered by Big Barry Hall. Why didn't Wallace play Polak who has the size and speed to match him.

If he played Polak on Barry and he got a flogging then Terry's Recruit of the year will be seen as a failure....Polaks a good player but he hasn't been tested on a opponent yet
Rubbish.mcguane would make a good flanker but is clearly too small to be a kpp; if he only has a bit of speed and agility or bulk he might make it.
Rubbish.
McGuane (bodywise) is a clone of one of the better afl backman in Nathan Bassett.
You don't have to be a gorilla to stand opposition forwards, just brave and footy smart.
Yeah but you don't know what your talking about. Keep your thoughts to your self please. We've all suffered quite enough of your thoughts for one day.I think he would have had more chance than a skinny kid like McGuane.
In the second quarter there was some argey bargey between the two. hall was giving it to McGuane. Despite being out of his division McGuane didn't back down and gave Hall a bit back.
His got a bit of ticker but boy does he need to hit the gym.
One player that is constantly annoying me is Thursfield. I think he is a real waste of space, just like Kelvin Moore. He's not that tall and real skinny and just too small to be a good key defender, and not a good enough kick to play anywhere else. I can't remember seeing him have a real good game this year.

But you know McGuane hasn't played in a single winning Richmond side in his career? He played two games last year and Richmond lost by 118 and 88 points respectively. Coincidence? McGuane isn't the worst at Richmond, but he's pretty bad and he seems to be constantly given jobs against bigger, stronger players.
Yeah, thats great. Terry did the right thing puttin him on Micky.Keeping Micky O to 6 possessions not good enough for you? You're a hard marker...
I'm not having a go at McGuane, I think he's got a bit of ticker.
All I'm saying is given his inexperience and current size, he didn't have much chance against Hall. So why didn't they play Polak who's older, bigger, strong, and fast enough for Hall????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????are you getting my drift!

it wasn't just mcguane who was monstered,we as a whole last night were just smashed by the swans in one on ones purely on body size.
jake king who has been good has found it very tough the last two weeks as he has just been purely outsized.
hall has kicked six on better fullbacks than mcguane so luke just has to learn to be better when the ball hits the ground as that's were hall got most of his possessions and goals
Yeah, thats great. Terry did the right thing puttin him on Micky.
But Thursfield when he has the ball sometimes...often...usually makes bad decisions. In the Sydney game he did a few handballs that put the receiver under pressure. He isn't a very confident kick and always looks to handball (he got 0 kicks and 7 handballs) and often turns it over out of defence.
He did well on Micky O, but his foot and hand skills are very substandard.
