    He did didn't he. Isn't exactly looking like the saviour we all hoped he'd be. Hopefully he continues to improve, but the Richmond backline was missing Grimes, so weren't exactly world beaters up against him.

      If he has kicked 10 goals 7 of them have been over the top into an open goal square

      Needs more presence

        And as bad as Amarty was at times, please never mention Ladhams to play senior football. The bloke is a moron who can't control his emotions out on field. Should be delisted at seasons end hopefully.

        I wonder what was wrong with Hamling? Bad game to miss today, considering the Rampe injury.

          A few of the younger ones still have a tendency to shirk at times. Can’t do that against these sort of sides.

            I'm under the impression that Logan is very happy in Sydney but I really hope he isn't getting distracted by the inevitable end of season big contract offers that will be coming from the West....or by offers that may have already been put before him.

            I'll be checking out his 'body language' in future weeks.

              Apart from 2021 I haven't had luck watching us play Richmond at the MCG recently. I have to say there seemed to be just as much Red and White at the ground as there was Yellow and Black. A shame the team couldn't get the win for us.

              Richmond were the better team for most of the game. Their pressure affected us. We had too many down players and we made too many mistakes.

              Someone needs to tell Chad to stop bombing it for goal. He needs to look for an option in the 50.

                I only saw bits and pieces of the match, but every time I watched a bit I thought we looked very flat and off our game.

                    Logan kicked 3 goals so did his job. The problem for Logan was we didn't go to him one out. We over possessed coming forward.

                      I tend to agree with that but he's still on our list and if he's playing good footy without any brain fades in the two's, he'll be given a chance just like anyone else. For all his promise Amartey is pretty inconsistent and Ladhams is the obvious like for like replacement.....and allows McLean to just stay up forward.

                        Ladhams needs a crack, 2s and 1s are different games
                        Anyone be unhappy playing scrubs when your better than them, Amartey far from holding him out and Mclean better as a deep fwd, no brainer

                          Someone should tell him to stop trying to break through front on tackles, and trying to do it all himself.

                            Well there we are, you can lose to anyone if you put your mind to it. Tigers smelled weakness and ran with it, credit to them.

                            Very disappointing effort but still 3-1. Not panicking just yet. Selection could get interesting the next few weeks though.

                              This to me is why selection needs to be dynamic and not this "dont change a winning team crap"

                              not performing move them on

                                James Jordan looked ordinary. Think we have found who goes out for Parker/Adams.
