Deledio had to be moved forward because lets face it, is not progressing as well as Richmond had hoped. And Tambling? Do you actually watch Richmond games or close your eyes, only opening them when Tambling does his usual 1 good quarter per season? The guy has some of the worst footy smarts i've ever seen and is still a twig. I don't think he has been injured alot so lets face it, he'll probably never bulk up that much.
Weve already had this discussion over MSN...Simmonds is a very good ruckman, IMO, in the top 3 in the league, and, i reckon ive watched Richmond games closer than you have, in relation to Tambling, and, like most tigers fans, is very happy with his progress. 17 goals and 272 disposals is more than "one good quarter".

And, Deledio was moved forward, after breaking his hand, because of just that...he broke his hand. When James Hird smashed his face against Peverills knee, im sure he didnt go straight back into the midfield...and im sure even you, PAFC, the most pessimistic person about other teams chances, would admit James Hird progressed even better than expected.

Plus, since returning, Deledio had some B.O.G performances, and had bags of four goals and five goals...a fair return for a small forward.
