Just remember at times defenders will have a job to do. Andrews last night seemed to have the job on Ryder/Lycett and whilst they were down on previous so was his own score. Sometimes the Team takes precedence  :D :D
I have Simmo so just wondering which of Whitfield or Lloyd I should upgrade to if I decide Simmo needs to go this week. Simmo is my D1,

Richmond don't have a tagger so yesterday was understandable, and the week before Hutch went to Conigs and murdered him

Whitfield would be quite hard to tag - not many players can keep up with him for 4 qtr because of his massive tank

They've got Geelong at GMHBA next week, so I'm hoping the Cats will put some attention into him

Fingers crossed the cats do nothing of the sort ;)

I have both, but if i had to choose then Lloyd would be the easy choice for me. His game is made for solid SC scoring with a very high floor and very high ceiling.

I’m confident Hewett will tag him as he has done it very well before, but waiting for that to happen is going to be painful for us non-owners :(

Crisp is torturing me
He’ll have his ups and downs but will be a top 6 defender
I agree that's the logical conclusion but Crisp seemed third preferred option of half back for the pies last night with Maynard and Howe getting most of the work. If this is an aberration then nothing to worry about but if the pecking order has changed...

let's just hope this is just a down week and nothing more.

Spewing I don't have Whitfield but Luke Ryan will do :)

I'm totally snacking on sour grapes right now but surely a tag is coming for Whitfield in the near future  ;D

It's a strange one. Just a lazy 42 possies (35 uncontested), 12 marks & a whopping 813 metres gained. I don't know if coaches don't want to compromise their own structures/game plans but sheesh. I reckon sometimes they can't see the forest for the trees. Someone did comment that he is a tough match up with a huge tank but I would've thought you have to try something.
