HF: Tambling Polak Cotchin
F: Morton Brown Riewolt
Foll: Simmonds Tuck Foley
Int: Pattison McMahon White Couglan (fit)
Emg: McGuane Edwards Connors

This is richmond's best team by a mile and in the correct positions too....

There will be a 3 way swap too simmonds fp pattison ruck and riewolt rotating off bench....

Brown and deledio will swap when Brett's stuffed. Richardson when is fuked can swap with tambling for a breather....

Good to see Hyde is not in your team. Polak over Hughes is up for debate as Hughes has more upside Polak. Jackson should be in team as our no 1 tagger.

For starters i know i will be shot down in flames because i dont have the likes of Jake King in there but lets face it, he might try hard... but thats about it and trying hard isnt going to get us a premiership. In my opinion if they were so dead set on getting someone from Coburg it should've been Nick Carnell!!
Oh and Hughes would be in there too if he gained some confidence and went back to the way he used to kick when they drafted him.

I agree that hughes has massive potential but Jake King is something we need a lot more of at richmond. He lays plently of tackles every game. gets good hard contested possesions not cheap ones. and 90% of the time uses the footy well which is more than we can say for a lt of the other boys out there.

Dude, How is Hughes a dud?

He shows enormous potential to fill the hole when Richo retires.

From what I saw on Sunday is they need to give White more of a go. He is quick, and has a go. Coughlan needs to be in our team in the middle. You need him getting it to Foley or Delelio so they can use their pace. I would not have Hyde in my best team and I think its time they put Bowden back in midfield not CHB or lose man as we need him kicking into our forward line. Meyer will be gone as will two of Hyde, Tivendale and Howat. If by chance they do get rid of Oakley Nicholls I would like to see him picked up as rookie as he has not got a body ready for AFL. What about Casserly now 3rd year on list has not played a game. Time to give him a go or delist. Also I want them to put more games into Edwards and Conners they were good in their 1st year.

Casserly has had major hamstring issues ever since he came over to melbourne...

How does Polak keep getting into these teams he is useless, the sooner he gets his third strike under the drugs code the better
Sharon (Tigers supporter), 20 May 2008 1:48 hide comment
i agree with almost everything everyone has said.. except for the couglan slots..
I am one of his biggets fans, i wear the number 24 on my guernsey... so please do not take me the wrong way here.. But he is clearly not in our best team, as he has not played a game in over 2 years.. The game has changed, yes he has played a few in the Vfl, buh vfl level is nowhere near the level of the elite afl league.. im sory but he wouldnt even fit into my team as a emergency.. He hasnt had the game time and im sorry but if u guys think that he will come back into the side after repeated strains, and play how he used to, ur kidding urselfs, he wont make my best team for at least 2 years ....

hi sharon, i do agree that coughlan who hasn't played for two year shouldn't be an emergency. i think it is just a sign of respect for a guy obviously everybody would love to come back soon. hope he does. hope he comes back from germany all mended and can make a final tilt at a return. as sad as it sounds but the club may have to delist him if he can't get his body right by the end of the year. but it is a business.

I may have to go over my team again and make some changes due to performances of late.

Lauren from Melbourne (Tigers supporter), 14 Apr 2008 21:06 hide comment
hmmm the Twigster has the goods...go with the goal assists!!! He is the player Richmond needs on the ground/off the bench to give the team a lift...when he's around good things happen! Go Tigers!!! Ps the side plays better without kane Petiffer...its time he got serious about his footy and put in the second efforts or got out. Its time that Richmond players put in their all for four quarters! Foley against Fremantle - AWESOME!
David from Coldstream (Tigers supporter), 14 Apr 2008 10:42 hide comment
hyde showed last night against freo why he should be in our best side, runs hard and kicked three.
I would have loved to put coughlan in my side but he hasn't played for two years and i felt he needs to show a bit at coburg to prove he can play at the top level again.
it is good to see white have a go when the opportunity came. hopefully he can make me eat my words.
