Richmond players bombing the ball in Hope.

[Tango]

we are addressing the skill level issue but there are a few factors that contribute to the problem of bombing long to outnumbered fwds

1. our mids are under pressure or percieved presure becuase we dont talk and dont shepherd
2. we kick to triple teamed fwds (richo) because he is the only one presenting and everyone nows where he is going and where the ball will go
3. we dont have multiple leading options
4. we have lacked smart mids (not just unskilled mids) & smart fwds

when thees things change we will look better and perform better

we need 6 fwds who can think and lead to difereant spots - that creates multiple options and unpredicatbility

its imposible to double or triple 6 fwds that means there is always someone loose - we just the time and composure to find them

The point that I was trying to make is let try and fix the issue and keep Tuck and Raines!

We just need to conceed that it's a problem. Work on fixing it via our training programs, if you bomb, helicoptor, or haymaker a delivery you and the whole team must run a 500m sprint. >

They will soon get sick of it!

Yeah maybe jb, but I'm hoping Cogs will get back to his best and take over that position off Tucky.

geez thats the pot calling the kettle black cogs foot skills have always been ordinary.. hmm mcmahon morton for raines. typical rfc replace a player because he has a deficiency but replace him with a player who lacks the player he is replacing strengths. raines has a go and runs at the ball has a bit of toughness the glass half full roundabout is alive and well.

David Bourke ran at the ball and had a go! Did that make him any good. No. and he got a game 'cos of his surname as well.
Raines is in the same boat.
He played one decent season and had a shocker last year when all the other clubs did a bit of homework on him and realised he just tucked it under the arm and ran as soon as he got it.
I reckon your half way around the glass half full roundabout with Rainsey. Claw
