Be very surprised if they risk even though his cameo performance was outstanding yesterday. Could be the difference maker in the forward line eventually. Bailey for Woewodin is possible. The only other change could be if they feel need to give Windsor a rest. If that is the case it's Hunter for me. Meant to say they won't risk McAdam etc. May well target it him for the Eagles game. Carlton might be too soon. 1

DubDee 26,669 Posted April 25, 2024 Posted April 25, 2024 Petty’s stats: 7 clangers 3 free kicks against /0 for 0 contested marks The game previous: 2 kicks / 2 clangers we can’t carry this type of output against better teams 4 1

I don't agree with others that he competed well last night, he was outmarked by his direct opponent often and couldn't get the ball to ground, yes the delivery was horrible but he needs to impact the contest. He'd had a rough or barely any pre season I get it and I know there aren't other options however if there were, the reality is that he loses his forward spot based on these performances. I wouldn't drop him, absolutely not. However if he isn't going down back then he needs to find a away into these games other than a marks and goals forward. You can bet Chris Scott will be looking to exploit this area next week. Will continue to back him, we need him to be on next week. Young, Vlastuin and Grimes each took one contested mark last night. That’s it for Richmond tall defenders and they weren't all vs Petty. You're making stuff up. 5 1

Reward will come, not sure taking him back to Casey will help. I saw him lead well numerous times and made space out the back and was either ignored or ball landed at his bootlaces. Some better delivery will help. I am, he is a liability we cant afford at the moment Edited April 25, 2024 by picket fence 2 1

Goody tries nothing like: Turner fwd Petty fwd Rivers mid Salem mid Brayshaw back T Mac back again Trying 1/2/3 tall fwds Playing first year kids like Windsor and Kolt I reckon Goody gets a bad rep for being stubborn and not trying stuff but he is getting a lot better in this area the last 2 years imo. Also game plan mixed up somewhat this season 12 1 3

DEE fence 5,051 Posted April 25, 2024 Posted April 25, 2024 I am prepared to back the coach, when he said he laughed even if we (me), did not at the number of times we hit up an unmarked opponent with a kick. To be fair we haven't played like that in 10 years but it was very triggering for my MFCSS. My point is that we are honestly not that bad by foot, and if we halved those clangers to +/- 15 then we would have kicked another 5-8 goals, we had them wide open. Instead we gave them a stupendous amount of looks right in the corridor that we were nor possibly able to defend. Both sides were so traumatised at there skill going by foot there was not much dare in the second half. I pray and hope it doesn't happen again. Am sure Geelong will bring out the intensity amongst the team, especially as underdog. I want Petty to have one more go at least, I think it has been a deliberate strategy (which we are not privy too) for him to play underdone. I really think selection and fitness team generally get it right. I understand why people are down on him. More worrying to me is JVR still taking everything as a chest mark and he bobbles those as well, forced me to agree with BT (of all things) that he needs to have his hands out. This is down on confidence. One thing I liked about Turner is his connection with Fritsch, that was a positive. Kozzie is so key to our midfield atm, I would hire a nanny. Gawn is going to get alot of work from Scott and the mids and they have the cattle, we need Kozzie badly for this game to try and halve the clearances. Curious to see our Tom Stewart plan. Win these two games against Geelong and Carlton and we will be (barring injuries) in the right mindset for finals. We need some top 4 scalps. 1

Petty does need to show something or he is in big trouble, but i honestly have never thought he was a forward Yep, agree with this suggestion the most. I think we need more veteran presence against the Cats and happy to recall Hunter on the wing. Windsor was a bit of a liability with ball last night and Geelong would punish us harder than a depleted Richmond. Think it might be a good week to start him as sub, given we have a 5 day break into Carlton. One of Laurie or Woewodin to be dropped, but I’m keen to see if Laurie can carry his momentum into a starting role next week. 2

The concussion looked a bad one and the game only 14 days after

I'm on the fence as to whether he competed well (I didn't pay him much attention tbh). But I don't think he is fit - there was a moment in the second quarter where he was looking puffed and he was jogging after the ball as Richmond players handballed it around 1

Impressive in her role in Babylon. Although the movie was rather over long and would have benefited from some serious editing. Rarely comment on these hypothetical threads. Re-team selections, doubt Goody and the match committee bother to tune in. Bit like democracy ideas get proposed, debated and either are applauded, dismissed or derided. But in reality the elite decide. Adam Tomlinson was getting plaudits on his on field performances pre-ACL but is now out of favour both here and it appears within the inner-sanctum. Despite appearances last season and this where he didn’t appear to stink it up. Maybe he needs to get the Polaroids from Jake M. 1 1

He did make more leads than I originally noticed. But we really do need more out of him, big test next week. 1
