So much for all out attack….

The Tigers are a mess, no identity no intensity.

Terry Wallace must be wondering if his players like him or not due to the effort his players are putting in each week. Yesterday’s loss was due to shocking decisions and disgraceful hand and foot skills, I lost count how many goals were conceded to poor disposals across the face of goal.

Players who now must be on notice:


Richard Tambling did nothing but jog backward and forward between the 50s and got the Bronx cheer when he finally got a kick, the hardest he ran all day was to the bench during the third quarter.


Brett Deledio seems to be unable to break a tag this season, if this is the case move him forward or down back where he might be of some use.


Jake King looks like he has the biggest heart in the Richmond team but struggles to hit the broad side of a barn by hand or foot.

I could keep going but I would have to list most of the team. To show I am not a complete Negative Nancy let’s take a little look at who is playing well.


Second gamer Alex Rance who looks like he is playing for his life every time he is in the action did well, maybe some other players could take a leaf out of the Rance book. Richo was good after quarter time and Newman was good early but faded in the second half.

Now watch me put a colourful spin on the season so far.


The Tiger’s three opponents, whom we have lost to, have combined records of 8-1 and of course are all in the 8 and will probably stay there for the rest of the season.


Our next three opponents are Melbourne, North Melbourne and Sydney have a combined record of 2-7 and none of them are in the eight. But we would want to win at least two of these.
