Jack will go round again. And despite the criticism levelled at him at different points this year, he still has more than enough to offer.
Cotchin should go around again, but I wouldn't be shocked to see him retire.

Crazy post. Can’t believe writing him off playing wise.
Playing as good as ever this season.
Complete over exaggeration both on that and any perceived frustration.
As usual he’ll keep proving people wrong.
No way has Jack lost it! He is playing his role, splitting packs, taking his man away from Lynch. People were ready to write him off last year and he came back kicking 5 in the GF
madness Leysy
In many ways Cotch may have had the second best year of his career
High impact, leadership, toughness
An ornament to the game, and Richmond royalty

pfft. no one is writing him off, but if you can't see that he's playing different this year then you probably think Menadue will make it as an AFL player
Don’t think anyone is saying he should be dropped Boozy. But he did have a Barry last night; looked slow and butchered it.
But they all have bad games. Back him to bounce back next week. We need him at his best against an aggressive Port midfield.
Not writing the champ off.
Nor that he is finished.
What some of us have said Re ‘ two more games’ isn’t that he is done.
- he is playing frustrated
-he is trying too much?
-has he lost his pace?
-is he frustrated with hub life? Is it getting to him being away from his ‘family surroundings & support’?
-no one is writing him off. What I meant was Cotch ,’2 more games’ we want from you to bring our 3rd flag in 4 years.’ That’s what I meant.
I will bet my left nut he will lead the way next Friday night. Just cast your mind back to 2017 preliminary final and that tackle on Mumford last years Grand Final. He will drag us over the line.
He had an off night. We still won by 5 goals. And it was a final. Not all that long ago he does that we lose, and it probably would have meant we finished 9th.
All players have a poor game from time to time. Last night was the one for Cotch. He is good enough to bounce back for the game against Port.
And the second half , first contest in the PF final vs Geelong.
That would be awesome to see the skipper , first contest, PF Friday night against PA, the humiliation of that EF against PA where we kicked the wrong way and got smashed that first quarter.
The ‘chimp’ to lead his ‘chimps’ to battle.
Go skipper.
Great call. He will no doubt want to avenge for that Elimination Final loss.
That one tackle looked bad, but there was at least two others which were head high. That's a sign of frustration to me or playing "tough" when he doesn't have to resort to that.
