Deadly serious.
The coaches have parameters; benchmarks; standards that must be met. They assign roles to players.
Clear out, bring the ball to ground, shut off this switch, stop this bloke doing that. Run there. Do this.
The players wear GPS's, review games and get feedback from coaches.
We arnt privvy to any of that.
So yeah im serious
Theres a heap of people on here who know *smile* all about footy, how footy clubs work, and crap on like they do.
Which is fine.
The internet is the place for that.
But im not gonna go 'yay, great insight'
the rapidity
Of the reversion
To pre-2017 rabble on here, is disconcerting

Of the 18;named on the ground only three aren’t premiership players. And one of them is leading theJDM.
another one is on the bench.
another one is on the bench.
Cumbo Kicked 4.1 last week, 17 disposals, 5 tackles, after 3.2 v Geelong VFL the week prior. Also the #1 for "Tackles Inside 50" per game for us in the Seniors this year.
His defensive pressure is fine. Like I said he aint the only one who drifts in and out of games.
You need class, x factor players also to turn games on their head and cumbo can do this. Its not working with what we have. I want guys rewarded for playing well not getting freebies on selection.
I watched Clarke carefully last week kicked that goal off the ground but was like a cat around the contests in that last quarter.
Just on Macca hard runner, works hard but let's face it he only gets about 12 disposals with half going to the opposition.
Mansell not even getting a point from 30+ out, other than 2 in the first what did he do?
I know we have some injuries lynch, gibcus, tarant, hopper and rioli jnr but Port has some key talls out also, Marshall and Dixon plus Jonas at back.
I reckon Vlustuin gets up from his corkie, still has another 3 days.
From the Interchange, id say these 4 will make up the final bench> Ralphsmith, Cotchin, Miller, and Banks to debut.
Sub: I think they will go Clarke again or perhaps Dow even though he had a poor game.
Interchange:
[45] Tylar Young, [13] Hugo Ralphsmith, [27] Thomson Dow, [9] Trent Cotchin, [32] Samson Ryan, [42] Judson Clarke, [46] Ben Miller, [41] Sam Banks
| PLAYER | INJURY | ESTIMATED RETURN |
|---|---|---|
| Travis Boak | Ribs | Test |
| Charlie Dixon | Quad | Test |
| Xavier Duursma | Knee | 5-7 weeks |
| Orazio Fantasia | Quad | 1 week |
| Mitch Georgiades | Knee | Season |
| Tom Jonas | Suspension | Round 12 |
| Todd Marshall | Concussion | Test |

The defensive efforts in the fwd 50 last week were top notch yeah, ok Cumbo needs to get to that standard.
We have one actual forward- Jack
Oh the old ‘people who know eff all about footy’ are on here - yeah when they disagree with you..
You know nothing about what people on here know
More concerned about the garbage our mids deliver to our forwards in the first place.
Watched the first three qtrs of the game and the magoos were extremely Richmondy and looked to be throwing the game in the garbage bin without much help from Essendrugs.
As for the Cummerbund comment. Phhht. Bloke was on right from the start of the game n worked his arse off.
Yeah let's see who mini's favourites are. We may even see more changes within games. Perhaps a Richmond cooler? Exciting times.
