Richards a liability

[glebe_tiger]

Besides his short run of form start of season he's gone downhill fast as seasons progressed.
Thanks for the memories but he shouldn't be playing first grade anymore in 2015.

my jaw almost hit the floor when he scored that try. thought he would have stuffed it up for sure like everything else he did tonight.

Move Simona to left wing & bring in Seve or Fine at centre. Patty will always be a Tigers legend but it's time to look to the future.

Offers nothing, playing off memories, dump him now.

 

[tig_prmz]

lol this thread has taken a 180

he's not playing like an experienced seasoned first grader- no where close.

still has his moments.. as for him not trying hard enough, imo he's always been like this- doesn't try hard enough but always seems to be in the game

 

[Eye_Of_Da_Tiger]

He proved why this thread exists tonight. To slow , can't catch, can't defend and lost his kicking boots. Sorry Patty it's time to go

 

[Furious1]

I love him, but he offers nothing atm. His biggest strike weapon got shelved by the supercoach and even his goal kicking isn't even what it use to be. Think he's already got Paris on his mind, and who could blame him.

What was it exactly that the coach took off him?

I think the Iceman has melted!

 

[stevetiger]

He is such a bad player at this level now. I honestly don't understand how anyone thought he would be up to it this year or at any point that he would be better than Koro.

I think that this was the worst recruitment and retention decision this club has made.

 

[TJL]

Yeah, it's time for Patty to pick up a mysterious injury since he is starting to look like Fitzfumbles.

 

[pacman]

So let's see…..can't tackle, can't make the right decisions in defence, can't take a bomb, can't stay in field of play, can't kick off, can't kick goals, and makes a simple try look very very hard.

Couldn't agree more

His kick offs

 

[jctiger]

He needs an "injury" soon, before he does his reputation any further damage.

agree

 

[Pawsandclaws]

In the try he scored did you notice he looked tentative putting the ball down as though he didn't want to risk injury? Just my first impression but maybe he has doubts about his aging body.

Please stop bringing up Koro….it makes me sad!

Do you think that I am happy about this. I will never understand how anyone making decisions can be this stupid.

Yep agree put Seve left centre and Simona left wing because Seve is normally a left centre, he always played on the left centre for Keebra and Australian Schoolboys but he should only play right centre if he has to.

Look at every try he's scored the past 2 years. He does it everytime. I've bought it up in the past, the majority on here felt it was a good tactic while a few of us felt he was a tad shy of putting his body on the line. I stand by my view of him being scared to go low and hard. Hell he had Pearce coming at him tonight and he looked terrified.

 

[Pawsandclaws]

I agree with you KS. The thing is other teams sense it.
