Richmond & Melbourne

Talk on the national game

Richmond & Melbourne

Postby Sojourner » Sun Apr 22, 2007 10:37 pm

Not the best way to have started the season with four losses apiece.

Melbourne seem to be up and down in their performance, yet whether the promise of a better year next year will be enough to keep Daniher and co in the job next year remains to be seen.

Terry Wallace on the other hand has informed supporters it will be three more years before they get close to the prize, whether or not that keeps the Richmond Faithful faithful who knows?

Still they have to play each other eventually I suppose!

First goal wins.

Doesn't get any easier for either side this week. Melbourne play in Sydney and Richmond come up against West Coast.

Melbourne are missing some key players but reports from the game (including McAlmanac's) aren't too flattering for the Dees.

Take Neitz, Robbo, Johnstone, Rivers, McLean & Moloney out of any team and they will struggle.

Rochmond on the other hand dont have the same reasons

Neitz the only champion player in that group. McLean an emerging champion, Robbo and Johnstone merely handy and what has Beamer and Rivers done again? When Neiter goes Melbourne are in as much trouble as Richmond.

Obviously not as much talent just with the two of them, but Nathan Brown and Mark Coughlan would be two pretty big outs for the Tiges.

Adelaide has no Roo, Johncock, Shirley, Biglands, Henschel, McGregor and Bode, and the club still finds a way not only to be competitve but a way to win

In regards to Daniher, he should not be judged on this year alone but on his ten years at the club

Ten years is a long time at a club, considering the Demons have not won a flag in that period and the inconsistency of the team from year in year out, maybe it wil be time for a fresh change and new direction
