I think jonathan brown hit the nail on its head pre game about richmond. Couple of the older players for Richmond should of retired to give a chance to our younger players to come through. Cotchin has to be the main one who stands out to me.

Cowan on 37…. Not sure I see it as a poor choice at half time if we get a score of 60-70 for 117k defender….
It's preseason, every rookie that doesn't average at least what Daicos did last year is trash.

Something I've noticed this o***eason that everyone thinks a rookie averaging less than 80 is somehow unworthy when really they need 50.

I chickened out of Jones at D1 and I'm already being punished by the rookie I benched outscoring the ultra premium I paid over 600k for instead.

Why we do this again? :LOL:

In other news.

Taranto is still Taranto and Hopper is not just still Hopper but is also somehow now trying to be an outside mid negating the one thing he's actually good at!

Only silver lining is half of Taranto's clangers have gone to the Blues that I have at least!

Hoppers positioning around stoppages is awful, he’s just a spectator at the moment and looks lazy
I had concerns about his fitness watching the last preseason game v Melb - dees mids were just running hard all game, big work ethic - they are the hardest running mid group in the comp. Thought maybe I am just overreacting.
So far tonight he has continued to look the same, doesn’t look hungry or motivated… is he even fully fit?
