Conca will be a good in
Suspect they give him some time in the VFL

Hopefully Corey Ellis isn't too far away from his debut, too.

He's still gonna have to win me over. :P

But yeah, will be an interesting week at the selection table.

IN: Newman, Chaplin, Vickery, Lennon, Corey Ellis
OUT: Gordon, Griffiths, Arnot, McDonough, Drummond

Newy, Chappy and Vickery were logical inclusions. Stoked that Beatle finally gets a run this year and Corey Eliis gets his debut, let's hope he has better luck that Drummo.

No surprise that Gordon got dropped, same with Madonna, but I actually thought Arnot wasn't too bad. I guess somebody had to make way.

Corey! Hope he proves you wrong Nige :P

I'm with you buddy.

Still fuming we passed up on Laverde and Weller for him, so he better deliver.

Don't care though, my eyes will be on Beatle! :-*

TEAM NEWS
IN: Deledio, Gordon, Griffiths, Grimes
OUT: Vickery, Lloyd, Lennon, C Ellis.

Lids in, I think he'll start the game and get red vested. Nip Gordon the likely sub me thinks.

Vickery and Griffiths look like they might not play in the same team, good to see Griff's injury wasn't too bad.

Disappointed that Lloyd doesn't get a good run at it. Always pops up with 2-3 goals when he does

Yeah, a bit odd.

Being sub isn't his thing imo.

Donnie Brasco · May 09, 2015, 04:46:28 PM

Typical, predictable, Richmond.

Nige · May 09, 2015, 05:12:05 PM

It was the opposite of the Carlton game.

This time it was a good first half before leaving Tassie at half time.

shaker · May 09, 2015, 05:39:28 PM

Yeah very disappointing I don't know what we can do ?

Ricochet · May 12, 2015, 11:07:48 AM

No need to panic yet with teams like Port and co dropping winable games as well, but you'd want to turn it around quickly

Toga · May 12, 2015, 01:17:00 PM

McBean in this week? 5 in the VFL again, might be worth giving him a shot, especially if Griffiths is out with concussion.

I want to see them reward blokes like Matty McDonough who have been performing week in week out in the twos. Don't play him down back, play him through the mids where he's been dominating or up forward which is his natural position. Give him a chance over the under-performers!!!

Jroo · May 12, 2015, 01:20:01 PM

Bring in McBean!!!!!

Yeah, exactly right Toges!

Nige · May 12, 2015, 01:28:13 PM

Vickery kicked 3 as well, so I'm honestly not opposed to him coming in if Griff doesn't get up this week. I'm probably one of his few remaining supporters, I still believe he can forge a decent career.

There were suggestions Hampson could come in after 41 hitouts or something, I'd rather that not happen.
