Geez, he is probably lucky that the rest of our fwd pockets are average. He is hanging onto his spot (fwd pocket/7th mid) by the skin of his teeth.

I do think he has been better than that as well. I think he might sub next week.
 
I don't care what position he plays so long as he plays. He is a fantastic clubman who deserves a chance to play in the finals.

That's so true.

Would have thought his last month has been a bit better than that?

I think he has been fine in the midfield (when he gets a chance), but the reality is his current role involves a heck of a lot of time as a small forward and that is afr from his specialty. I think he is the likely sub next week, assuming Jacko misses out which is likely.
 
I agree he deserves his place in the team.

He topped our tackle count, again.

Ellis showed the importance of a tackle.

couldn`t agree more. one of my favorites. if Newman can be carried Foley should be a monty.
 
Foley will be better suited next week. Not a strong body, but still moves well, which will be important against port.
 
Well done Nate on your upcoming final.

Good to hear Dimma today saying he made a mistake last year in not playing him in the final.

Go rip em a new one Axle.

Yes well done Axel.
No need to wish you luck, you'll do yourself proud, and go up another level just like you did for Victoria against the dream team.
 
Congrats Axle on playing in the final you are so deserved of. Play a blinder mate!!! :clap
:gotigers
 
A fantastic servant of the RFC and its great to see him playing finals footy.

There haven't been too many others who have had to work as hard or wait as long.

Nice to see the mantle of games played without finals being passed to a non-Richmond player.

I suspect that Lynden Dunn will have this record for a while now.
 
Nathan Foley is rotten little fascist. I'm glad he's a Richmond man.
 
He has had a tough journey. One of the few players to survive being Wallaced, and it was touch and go.

Whilst he was admitting errors did Dimma also say that Newman probably shouldn't have?

Best of luck to Axe in his first final. Good to see him making a solid contribution to the team again.
