Terry "Wallett" must be scating on thin ice again. Is it time for Sheeds to finally return to Tigerland?

Save the implosion jokes for the SNAFL board.
Richmond haven't imploded or lost the plot they are heading in the right direction. However they have not advanced enough over the last pre-season to defeat top eight sides yet. Carlton are at a similar level. Next week Richmond play Adelaide so despite the Crows slight form dip, they should account for the Tigers and perhaps this thread will gain legs.

True, we won't beat the big boys for a season or two, but considering Wallace is into his third (?) year, I'd be disappointed if I were a Richmond person at his progress...
If Carlton are performing the same in a year or two with no sign of improvement, I'd be truly pi55ed off....

4th...Well I'll be...For mine this is what I want Ratts to achieve at Carlton
1st Year, evaluate the list, run the kids, look at the old blokes...
2nd Year, more games for the kids, make a stand with senior blokes..improve a position or 3
3rd Year, the Kids are getting to 50 games, the seniors know the plan, fitness base is in, finish in the 8
4th Year, Finals and deep into them...
Needless to say if he doesn't get there, it'd be seeya later...SO I guess if Richmond fail to make the finals
it'd be seeya Terry.....

If they do then the question should be asked..."Have the Crows imploded...."
The Crows should be a finals side...Richmond no hope. They should beat the
crap sides, like West Coast and...ohh hang on

I've hardly picked the Crows right all year, and whilst it would be an upset, I reckon the Crows might be Burtonless, and Richmond will hit the ground running in an attempt to restore some pride from the weekends drubbing in Sydney.
They've managed to shut the Crows down nicely on occasion in recent years, and back in front of their faithful I'd give them every chance.

Agreed as a crows supporter i am not confident this week. We need our whole team playing well to compete at the level we have so far. Without Burton(3 weeks) i rekon we will struggle. Hentschel not ready and Richmond will push us if not clean us up.
