We got Tarranto and Hopper to fixed that and to date it is not working. Maybe when the get used to our system whatever that may be the mids could start giving us something

Without getting into the Taranto Hopper debate, we have them now.
We need to figure out how best to use them.
I wouldn't have them in the midfield at the same time. Problem is Hopper can't do much else. Taranto should probably be swapping forward with Dusty.
We need a Midfielder who can do some transition running though. Ross can do that.
Gawn, Lever and Brown returning....just in f*cking time for good ol' Richmond!!
I heard Gawn is no chance.
Still having Knee issues.
May is playing like he did the 1st year he turned up.
I reckon if we had our best 22 we would beat them.
Essendon are super shiit and they stopped Melbourne scoring.
I thought when we got Taranto he would play a bit forward, I always recall him kicking goals for the GWS.
49G 59B in 119 games is a good reflection of his kicking ability. Hopper has similar hgoal kicking stats. 44.49 from 118 games.
They are both better clearance/stoppage players than forwards. Taranto appears to have better 2-way running capacity.
Not sure we didn't make an error getting Hopper as well as Taranto.
Let's hope we get some better connection from our midfield moving forward. Agree playing them a lot at the same time is not necessarily working, albeit its a small sample size. We need more injections of Shai & Dusty.
Not sure Ross is the answer, but surely he will get an opportunity.
If Ross doesn’t get the opportunity with our injury list then I think the writing is on the wall for him and he’ll go the same way as RCD at seasons end.
no way will we win, dominant midfielders love playing us (i.e. lachie neale, bont) clayton oliver will have 60 possessions and about 15 centre clearances
Yes and that's ridiculous as his last 2 full games were in Final in Brisbane and 1 this year both games in our 5 best players. Harshly treated and scapegoat
If Gawn plays we can’t have Ryan and Miller competing against him and Grundy.
We are going to have to change it up.
I would put Balta in as our first ruck with Ryan as the 2nd ruck.
Miller to play down back. We might be robbing Peter to pay Paul but if we can’t negate Gawns influence we will cop absolute pasting.
B: Vlastuin Grimes Young
HB: Short Miller Rioli
C: Macintosh Hopper Pickett
HF: Tarranto Riewoldt Bolton
FF: Clarke Ryan Cumberland
Foll: Balta Prestia Martin
Int: Sonsie Ralphsmith Mansell Baker
Sub: MRJ

Surely Gawn doesn't play? 3 weeks off after a medial is a risk IMHO
Our biggest issue is if Fists of Fury Lever plays. With no Lynch and our bombs inside 50, Lever will think he is at a Las Vegas buffet racking up intercept marks.

Named in the bests 2 weeks running. Named as an emergency last week. Must be close.
Sorry, someone who doesnt have confidence in their own posting must be blocking me from knowing the existence of their posts, who are you talking about?
Bauer i think. They were pumping him up too on the TT podcast
Balta needs to be set free!!!
He must play on the wing or in the ruck. Richo style, drifting forward. He's dangerous anywhere near 60 metres out.
Let's use his athleticism, his good marking and booming kick to cause damage.
I feel like he is being held back.
Let's see what he can bring to the table, on his terms.

Love it.
Only change........Mansell as sub and MRJ playing.
Also, Baker is starter every day of the week!!!!
Also, not sure we can play Miller and Ryan in the same side.
Probably go for Miller as he can play back to cover for Balta's unleashing.
