We all know we are playing like *smile* at the moment but we have some players playing really poorly.
Not sure what's wrong with Edwards he has started this season like he dosent give a toss. Walking/jogging behind the opposition, it's hard to watch.
Baker, can't have him play 10 minute cameos anymore. Either Hardwick moves on ball or down back, he very ordinary in the forward line.
Balta, maybe had read the papers in the preseason, 'Balta the next big thing'
When Petty was plucking them from everywhere last night and poor old Balta did everything but mark a ball, it showed that if he starts off poorly there's no mid game recovery.
Graham, people continually say he didn't have a preseason but would a good preseason change the way he runs on the spot?
Players that must be dropped and then moved on are flappers, he destroys momentum with very poor skills & he is a horrendous kick and properly worse mark in the comp.
Parker back to Sth Fremantle. Thank you see ya.
Castagna he was number 1 pressure player, now he is a witches hat, that can't kick and panics like a 1st gamer.
Tarrant, the poor bastard thought coming to us would be easier because of BigV and Grimes (pity the match committee destroyed Grimes)
Nakas, He has been awful in the first 6 games. He could be the 1st Richmond captain since the 1970s/1980's to captain for only 1 year.
It's not all bad Rioli, Broad, the return of Big V, Bolton and Gibcus have been all top notch.
Rapt to see Ross put some games together and Short is looking to good to be wasted at HB.
Hard decision need to be made at years end but its not the end of the world.
Keep bringing in kids and let's try (only once) to bring Green to punt Rd. Let's not make Green the next Kevin Sheedy.
