PUNT ROAD END | Richmond Tigers Forum
Easy targets after last night, I know, rarely have I seen a more inept performance by a Richmond midfield.
It did however cause me to try and think of a current AFL side with a worse midfield. Our experienced mids, Cogs, Tuck, Jonno, and the less so, Hyde, etc. all have glaring deficiencies, mostly in their lack of pace and average to poor skills.
We can't really count Browny at the moment, although when he is back to full speed his class will be desperately needed, and the younger brigade like Lids, and Tambling are only mids in the occasional rotation.
Our starting midfield is really quiet tragic and I struggle to think of a side that is worse off. Carlton are obviously pretty bad, but with Kouta and Nick Stevens, have a big edge in class.
I don't rate freos mids in the elite class, disposal is OK but with guys like Bell and Haselby they lack pace, but weight of possessions gets them through.
Help me out here, are we really that bad?? :-\
