Caro's "tigers of old" stuffed Richmond up in the 80's and 90's.

We have moved on with an astute CEO and President doing great jobs getting the Tigers back on the right track.

I actually agree with Caro.
Seems she has done a bit of ""turn around""


Well last week you were telling us that she, Wallace and Miller regularly had coffee together. While other people were telling you that Caro cannot stand Miller

Struth with coffe friends like that Miller sure doesn't need enemies ::)

She's appears to be off on one of her we need more Richmond people back at Richmond mantras again.

She carries on about there being no Richmond people back invovled at the Club in the Footy Dept. Hello Caro: Dale Weightman - remember him  ??? He works at the Club in the footy dept no less and from what I can recall he was a Captain of the Club, won a few B&Fs. I think these are what we commonly call FACTS - Caro - get 'em straight please

ANd how convienent that Caro doesn't even bother to mention that we have former players mentoring our current list. Caro here's a couple of names for you .... Francis Bourke, Mike Green, Dick Clay... RFC champions I believe... like me to go on  ??? No probably not because again these are FACTS which clearly don't suit your mantra this week

And as for taking a cheap pot shot at Steven Wright - Caro you have absolutely no idea

You might find the "'mentoring"" program isnt running as smooth as people think. ;)
Actually, no I wont say a word. Not worth it

Now there's a headline...... Will Harvey see out the season  ;D

Actually he has Freo playing the way Sheeds had Essendon playing the last few years - no new kids, not very direct and very very slow  :rollin :rollin

Would think the recuiting of Bradley and Johnston were a bad move for Harvs. would think his team played with little spirit today, actually they were disgraceful
I dont know about the new kids thing, Sheeds blooded about 7 last year, how many did wallet ?? :banghead :banghead :banghead

Jack seriously... with Sheeds it was in one week out the next

It is pretty clear that Knight's is giving the kids the opportunity to play consecutive matches. I mean seeing some of the kids running around for the Bombers at the moment makes you wonder why Sheeds didn't give them more game time. The 2008 Bombers are quick, the 2007 Bombers were slow slow slow. And now Harvey is following the Sheeds philosophy of relying on older players and it will cost him.

Most of the Essendon youngsters playing this year played last year.
Would agree, Harvey could have a short career

Tiges - Polak, King, Edwards, riewoldt, Connors, Graham

Bombers - Mal Michael  :lol, Camporeale  :lol Davey, Houli, Jetta, Gumbleton, Reimer, Hislop, Neagle, Hocking
Last three got about a game each - hardly blooding.

I'd say they were on a par.
