    I think some people over estimate our list - I’m still trying to work out if some of them are just done at this level or our system / passion is just not right 

    Perhaps both.  For a start we can stop all the laughing and smiling during the on ground warm up

    CAC got rid of Millar and Wallace, employed Dimma and Blair Hartley and the rest is history.

    He was part of their success.

    As for passing on Eddie, so did every other club as Eddie was taken as a rookie.  JT passed on McKay and Curnow for Weideman so I suppose you'll never value him.😀

     

     

    Well ok I will concede he was a small part of the Tigers success but doesnt need front page billing. Everyone passed on Eddie because he had OP, and not possibly because they didnt rate him.  Passing on Curnow was a certainty coz he told everyone he wanted to get to Carlton.  McKay, I dont know.  The really interesting thing about the Weid selection is that (with hindsight) it broke our golden rule of picking a competitive beast.  Of course I value JT, how could JonTee not.  But the question you might want to consider over tonights sherry is Has JT gone off the boil? 😉

    This might be a dumb idea, but this could be a good time to rest him until after the bye and get him good to go for the back half of the season.

    If we couldnt get him good to go for much of the pre season why do you think resting him now for a couple of weeks will make a miraculous recovery?

    What a fantastic coach and what a wonderful legacy he will leave at Richmond. It is never as simple as one man but he was front and centre of the Tigers success along with our very own Craig Cameron amongst others. 

    Dimmas record speaks for itself, but Craig Cameron, didnt he leave the Tigers in Feb 2013? Never valued Camerons judgement since he said he didnt rate Eddie Betts.

    And when we needed some run why didn't he throw Kozzie into the middle. He hardly went in there all game.

    Kozzie spent most of the game 'observing'.  He seemed to be where the ball aint.

    If the two clubs are monitoring their own interchange numbers and an interchange steward is monitoring both then it isn't too much of a stretch surely to let them know when they've reached their limit to avoid something like this happening? 

    If you are going to be reasonable and sensible you are posting on the wrong site.

    Langdon’s role hasn’t changed at all. They’re both playing wings and running forward and back as the game requires.

    Helping out the mids? He’s really poor at the back of stoppages because his lack of burst and toughness sees him miss tackles and get caught in traffic. He’s Zoolander out there with his inability to ever go on his right, not just with kicking but he won’t handball on his right either.

    He’s going to ground and giving away the kind of dumb free kicks that veterans who have lost it in the legs do. He’s utterly inept in marking contests.

    And honestly some of that would be ok if his kicking was a weapon like when he had time and confidence in preseason. Now it’s at best 1 great kick followed by 3 slow little up and unders and a turnover. 

    I doubt they drop him just yet but for the last month he’s not giving us anything more than JJ did last year. 

    Before I gob off, or not, can you clarify who 'he' is?
