Comparatively this year to date and going into next year, where do we sit against these supposed lower clubs? This is how these clubs sit on the ladder at the moment. The Saints are really putting in some good shows including today against the Hawks, the Pies beat us, the Dons were not embarrassed today, the Blues have really recruited well and we will not beat them round 1 next year and the Lions have a very good nucleolus to challenge in the coming years.
I would include the Dee's but it appears they are above us, including on the ladder, GWS have passed us and so have the GCS. The Bulldogs are also another team that have leapfrogged us and they were destined to be failures for years.
Apart from the Dockers who will step up soon, does anyone else think we have missed the boat and these other clubs will overtake us sooner rather than later?
St Kilda
Richmond
Collingwood
Essendon
Fremantle
Carlton
Brisbane Lions

Oh look we need to take a step backward to go forward but we'll still make the eight this year....

Its not just this year we need to worry about though, I don't believe we are in front of these clubs at all and with their recruiting and trades they can only get better. We really picked up Rioli and that was it!!

We need to spend the money and poach people who know what they are doing. Like someone else said, "Give them an offer they can't refuse!" If we get people who actually know what they are doing rather than keeping the status quo in the name of stability.
Get the head of recruitment at either Hawthorn, swans, Eagles
Get the head of development at Eagles, Hawthorn Swans
Get a coach who has an idea and will develop a game style to suit his current playing group.
Get a coaching team that aren't just mates of the head coach but actually know footy and can contribute something to group.
Spend the money & get great experienced people that already have had proven success

Rendall and Mickey O for a start then dump this dud Francis Hackson-
cant believe this poor excuse for a recruiter has still got a job after what he and his mentor Miller has done to our list.

Seems to be all he does. Between the "gone past us" and "rebuild" comments he contributes very little other than trying to wind up other posters..

Well done Brisbane. Great win, hard at it all night. Never gave up. Great win. Tigers take note.
Bastinac, great pick up!!

We are good treadmill runners, all the other clubs are running past, the perennial witches hats.
-
That list of clubs has improved or at least have the potential and players . On the other hand, we have shown 0.
-
We have actually shown minus 2, evident from the coach admitting we have gone backwards two steos.
-
Where do we sit? On our hands as everyone goes past us....
-
Still

Saints on the right track
Collingwood had the youngest team in the league last week

Want Another Thread?

GWS just pounded the crap out of Port so they are showing some great signs...Dee's flogging Port....Lions got up
ALL overtaking our pathetic club...
Love how the apologists are sitting back waiting for our 9 game winning streak to happen again.... :rollin

Its all very simple .....
Based on what we have dished up in 2016 , Richmond are a bottom four team . One could argue a bottom two team.
We look very poor.
The team has shown an ability to rebound from adversity over the past couple of years - but seen nothing this year to suggest we can recover.

Thank god we didn't get Treloar, and we can bank that early draft pick. :rollin
(GWS must be laughing their arses off. Likely top 8 finish with a top 4 draft pick going their way.)

I'm just relieved that Port Adelaide appears to have caught up with us :clapping
