The new Richmond name Tasmania is looking to poach for key football department role
The Tasmania Devils are looking to poach well-regarded Richmond GM of football talent Blair Hartley to be their inaugural list manager, according to Sam McClure.
The 3AW Football news breaker also saying the talk around the AFL’s 19th team being ready to play in their new Macquarie Point stadium by 2029 is “fanciful”.
“My understanding is Richmond is headhunting Blair Hartley,” he said on 3AW.
“They need to get a CEO, they need to get a list manager and they need to get this thing rolling.”

“My understanding is Richmond is headhunting Blair Hartley,” he said on 3AW
So Richmond is head-hunting someone they already employ
So no wonder Sam cops so much criticism for his ..er...ummm..journalism

Sam McClure is a joke. I can't recall his in the know has ever been correct.

How true. :lol :cheers
No wonder they call him Sam Manure.

Sam is easily the worst in the business
-
Good - he can stack their side with hbf's, pay overs for injury prone blokes clubs wanted to get rid of anyway and give away fringe players for free... :shh

His time IMV is done at our cub.
Someone should drive him to the airport asap.

Puzzling that situation Balme was demoted and now end of year has been made redundant and not his choice either.

From memory, balmey said it was his decision to pull back a bit to allow the others to be promoted so they wouldn’t be poached by rival clubs.

If only someone had poached them. We’d be far better off now. No way Dimma would have been able to bully Balmey into taking Taranto and Hopper.

Balmy was pushed out the door. He was left out of the recruiting process of Yze.
Who knows how he was treated in the 1/2 years before that by BH.

He was "pushed out the door", you know this because? He told you perhaps? Or you're just giving your opinion to suit your narrative?
Just asking

He’s 72 and has some health concerns. I hardly think he’s getting pushed. Seriously.

Your kidding me mate I expected alot better response from you. He had a meeting with Gale and Livingstone unexpectedly and was told it's your last year in 2024 and didn't see it coming and wanted to go on.

The fact is you got one of the best foot administrators the game has seen and success comes with him and we keep on as a advisor is laughable. You think in this current time his input and expertise wouldn't be valuable ?. Livingstone is not good enough to tie his shoe laces have a look at his last 2 seasons utter rubbish. His the head of the footy department and look at our fitness and conditioning and medical department incompetent that's just one example.

💯 I got no problem with Blair , but Livingstone aren't much chop who does the fitness and medical department answer to the head of the footy department who was part of the appointment that's just a example.

Mate demoted as a advisor the best footy administrator in the game is laughable you tell me in our current presence his experience wouldn't be beneficial.
-
He has proven himself across 3 clubs , you would think if he’s capable and wants a position it should be offered, I know he can be passionate but as long it’s directed in the right way it shouldn’t be a problem

Firstly, Livingstone is not the sole head of the footy department. It shared between Livingstone and Hartley. Minor technicality I suppose. And the fact remains he stood aside from his role as head of the the footy department and recommended Livingstone and Hartley share the role.
I am actually staggered that they are not using his input more than they are. His calm head is what we need now.
As for the meeting, although disappointed he has accepted the decision. He has said in numerous interviews and functions that his health hasn't been great. Last time I checked he is still at the Club, hasn't been kicked out the door..

He wasn't "demoted" he made that call. He took on the Senior Club Advisor role to actually help the Club. Go back to when it happened...join the dots, it isn't hard.... footy soft cap slashed and he makes a move so we didn't have to cut as deep ...
As I said we could use his calm head right now but it is up to people to ask and this includes the new coach

If we need Balmey now then we have wasted the last however many years where he, Peggy and co have been at the club.
You cannot keep relying on one man (or woman) to run something. At some point, others need to pick up the slack and use what they’ve learned.
The problem won’t be fixed by leaning on Balmey, it’s replacing those who haven’t been able to keep us regenerating the club in the past 4 years.

We need to stop other teams from poaching our people. And we need to do it now..

Like the cats have done you mean? Wells still floating around the place and Cook only left recently to join the blues.
If you have good people you keep them. End of story
Other people may not hold the standards as high as the ones they replaced :shh

Great comment spot on 💯

Brian Cook is in his 3rd year at the Blues, the Cats have done exactly what I am suggesting. Rhe model of leadership revolving around the leader himself becoming indispensable to the organisation is redundant. We really should have been able to replace Balmey as well as Benny in the near future. Club must rejuvenate it’s leadership, retaining what has worked while evolving with the new crap the AFL have implemented - which I think we have really struggled to do. Take soft cap, I still think we’ve failed to adapt like other clubs. Time doesn’t stand still for anyone and we look a little exposed at the moment.

BC started at Geelong in 1998, 22 years ago.
There is a difference in years and he has served them well over many flags.
Hopefully Benny stays because if the president is any indication we will be very light on for leadership.

Brendon Gale says on 3AW reports he will attempt to secure list boss Blair Hartley at Tasmania are not correct. Says Hartley will stay put at Richmond under the current structure and is invested in the current list renovation. Great news for Richmond.

I listened to the entire interview and he didn't say that directly
But whatever
