I am marching in the Saints army
brooks is gone
for purely selfish reasons I hope he does't tear us to pieces at another team.
watching rodan, fiora, ottens etc tears the richmond supporters up IMO.
also can anyone remind me who was in the best for the scorpians?
I remember V2 other than that was birss and raph tearing it up?
Bewaire krime, da krimson bolt is comeing to yure nayborhood to smach krime

Not happy with those changes especially Raph, watching him this season has made me lose all my faith in him.
Why bring in Birss? Lyon plays him in a negating role, we don't need Baker/L.Fisher and another stopper, it's just pointless, at least he dropped Attard, I'd still like one more tall forward in our forward line especially now that Kosi is permanent ruck.

Kosi will only ruck when Gilmore isnt so he will then go forward so it will be the same as per usual.ben_fff wrote:Not happy with those changes especially Raph, watching him this season has made me lose all my faith in him.

Looks like Max on Farmer
Flying the World in comfort thanks to FF Points....
I'd still prefer another tall forward, that being Watts but I understand why they wont bring him into the side.plugger66 wrote:Kosi will only ruck when Gilmore isnt so he will then go forward so it will be the same as per usual.ben_fff wrote:Not happy with those changes especially Raph, watching him this season has made me lose all my faith in him.

yeah I know and that's the problem I have, we have basically 3 taggers, 4 if you include Blake, I don't understand what the point of the exercise is we've shown over the last few weeks and the first half of the year that we need to be more potent from the middle half of the ground to the forward line yet we still don't seem to be addressing that problem.saintsRrising wrote:Well with Attard out.....Birrs can play as a stopper.ben_fff wrote: Why bring in Birss?

I know the Team selectors know alot more about the side than I but I would have rolled the dice this game and thrown McQualter, Thompson and maybe even Armitage into the side... at least Ferguson over Raph Clarke, like Lyon said himself their's no point limping into the finals which I think the current gameplan will have us do... if we make it.

Those changes may marginally improve the team, but there isn't a lot of potential gain.
Birss in for Attard - Had to be done. Attard in terrible form lately and Birss was dropped unfairly
R.Clarke for Jones - Both have looked completely lost at senior level this year. Clanger kings. Not a huge difference
Voss for Rix - We obviously want another marking target, but we've been giving Voss a go every month or so and he keeps on failing. Same goes for Rix. They perform in the Scorps, get a gig in the seniors, disappoint and the cycle starts again. Why not try someone new? Has the form of Brooks and Ferguson not been good enough? Do they need to gather at least 45 disposals each week to get a game? Why di different rules apply to these players?
