Richmond 2016 H&A discussion

[quinny88]

I got a feeling we will throw in a few new names this week. Nothing to lose against west coast over there.
I expect a bit of a reset and getting some names back the week after against the Dee's.
Making a bad habit of these slow starts to the season

[kilbluff1985]

any reason Miles has been below par so far?

[Nige]

Not sure to be honest. Seems to be one of many (or the team in general really) who have just started slowly.

Doesn't really have big games like others are capable of though, more or less just plays his role.

I think he can do better than he has so far though, so hopefully he (and everyone else) lifts his game.

[Nige]

Well...

Miles' average start to the season has cost him. Andrew Moore will make his debut for the club. The other change is Jayden Short omitted for Taylor Hunt of all flowering people.

[elephants]

Not a Hunt fan I presume Nige :P

[shaker]

Yes a risk bringing Hunt in his skills are poor as with a lot this year so far if we dish up some more poor skills this week it could get very ugly 

[Toga]

Happy to see Moore get a game. Huge tackling numbers last week, hopefully he brings a bit more grunt around the stoppages. I'm a big fan of Miles but his start to the year has been underwhelming and maybe a kick up the ass in the two's might help turn his form around.

Pretty well-written article here. I quite like it.

Big game this week for both teams 8)

[shaker]

Jeez the chat has dried up this year we have started bad most years but this year the Tiges have been really shower maybe people are starting to realize Dimma is not the messiah , anyway it is do or die this week they must come out and show that the last seven years have not been a waste of time , show that they have skills above VFL level and give the Dee's a hiding , Miles must come back in and hopefully Lids and Maric are back as well GO TIGES GRRRRR.

[Toga]

Hampson and Astbury looking likely to miss through injury, likely to be replaced by Maric and Batchelor I'd assume? Wouldn't mind seeing Deledio and Miles in for Moore and Hunt as well.

FB: Batchelor, Rance, Vlastuin
HB: Houli, Chaplin, Lennon
C: B.Ellis, Miles, Grigg
HF: Lambert, Vickery, Deledio
FF: Edwards, Riewoldt, Lloyd
Ruc: Maric, Cotchin, Martin
IC: McIntosh, Ellis, Menadue, Rioli

[Big Mac]

Is Lids ready?
