The Squad vs. Collingwood

Gee Wallace is really feeling the heat. Is trying to field his best side in the hope we can progress further into the NAB cup and make himself look good rather than see what some of these young kids have to offer. Seems every other club is happy to do so except our Terry.

it won't make a pinch of difference how many we win.
Season proper is what he should/will be judged on.
 
Spot on old fella........very upset that selectors/matchcommittee/TW seem to be treating this game as must win.

It is a stuff all pre-season game and where we to win the NAB Cup and lose the opening four games of the season then Wallace is GONE.

Lose tomorrow nite and win two of the first four games in the season proper then wallace is a chance to remain.
 
i think what Wallace and maybe the rest of the richmond officials are doing is getting the team into prime condition, match fit and ready for the first 4 games. If we can get 3 or dare i say it, 4 wins on the board our season will be setup for a good result. I remember Wallace saying last year that richmond were easing into the season last year and it showed. Our first half was pretty ordinary but we built up momentum during the season. i think he is building up momentum for the beginning of the season this time.

The team will then hopefully have the confidence and fitness to hold them in good stead for the second half. And not let happen what happened the other year i'm trying to forget about.

It will secure his job, members and hopefully finals..... ;)
 
For those who think Wallace is trying to make himself look good by playing the senior players, think about it! If we lose he wont have the excuse that other clubs have, we didnt have richo, browny simmo.... He does not have an excuse now!!! Good on you Terry show this competition that the tigers are coming........
 
If Richo is rested who will play full forward?
Maybe Bowden?

Raines Thursfield Moore
McMahon McGuane Newman
Cousins Deledio Tambling
White Riewoldt Edwards
Brown Bowden Morton
Simmonds Tuck Foley
Graham Johnson Hislop Thomson Polo Jackson King Rance Vickery Nahas

I would say if Richo isn't in the team or plays midfield then our tall focal point will be Riewoldt with a spread of goalkicking mids

Unless rance and Vickery can kick goals at this level

Who do we play if we, ahem, win?

We play the winner of the Essendon vs Brisbane game.

So if we win we have a chance to make the final in my opinion. :)

Just got to beat Collingwood and we're a good chance to compete for a pre-season flag.

Would love to see Richo and Cousins etc holding up a premiership cup, even if it is only pre-season.

Got to beat Collingwood first.
