Source?

Don’t rate Trengove at all. If it was for Harriman or talias spot then maybe but he doesn’t make our best 22

Im a little confused. It all started when i started to read the Div 7 reserves genius's insights into structures and systems of an AFL club. I was left with the distinct impression that there is no way you can be successful without at least 2 key forwards. Small forwards who lock the ball in and provide tackling pressure are also not required. That guy put his point across very convincingly and i started to believe him.
Then Richmond made the Grand Final. How does this happen?
I guess the morrell of the story is dont believe everything you read on here or at the very least choose wisely who you get your intel from.

Could be a kneejerk reaction to Bulldog's & Richmond's success thus far with the pressure small forwards. Neade's an honest goer but not up to the level IMO. If we can't get him traded I think he'll be cut.

He needs to show more urgency and intent with his actions, so far as being off the mark quicker when he has the ball in his hands, by being more urgent to get to the contests and be front and centre, by showing more intent when he has the ball to deliver to the right option.

He's got skills to burn but he can be lazy with the ball in hand and can "lay back" on his kicks instead of staying over it and hitting it. He hits lots of floaters and helicopter balls when he isn't head down over it, when he is his delivery by foot is top notch. He also needs to work on his right side both by hand and foot, it's non existent.

Interesting.

We might have enquired with his manager but I think his price tag will be too much. We just resigned Otten for 1 more season who is more than adequate cover for Talia/Hartigan.

Not against getting him thou as I think he is a great CHB and if he is willing to fit into the pay structure

He'd been keen to stay in SA too, I reckon. One little one and twins on the way with an Adelaide girl.

Yeah similar to my thoughts, but didn;t want to judge him on one game only. Was one possession in the last 1/4 where he had time off half back to hit up or put the ball to advantage and just rushed/bombed the kick.

A lot of the stuff you mention above needs no talent, if he isn't showing it in the last game of a long season Id suggest the message isn;t getting thru and he might be in trouble.

I know, I remember orchestrating a stocktake at work and I had to organise lunch, majority vote won, KFC it was.

Upon eating it this overweight chick says to me in a snarly voice while munging on a fatty piece of chicken "You didn't get any pepsi max".

I tried my best to answer civilly.
