Yes, keeping Kane would be beneficial for the club. His form has been great for the last two years! ::)
Wasn't Terry sunshine, although I'm sure you'll try and make out it was lol. When you can't blame Terry, blame Miller. Didn't he also recruit Carey? You win some, you lose some! You know, a lot of the stuff you say has a lot of merit. The trouble is I know your motives!

Sometimes wonder how we would have gone if Carey had of come to the Tigers instead of heading off to "Feralville SA". I reckon the likes of Schulz could have learnt a lot from him
Champion player
And just on the B&F why oh why do they persist with having the bloody thing mid-week

Cheaper to hold

So the players can recover for the weekend after being danced off their feet by a regular attendee. (recover to watch other teams play finals, that is :()

I had a joke with Axel the other night of what dancing with me has achieved for him.
He has promised me a dance at the B&F this year :rollin

Cheaper to rent the ballroom for the club per head on a Wednesday as opposed to a Friday Saturday or Sunday WP. Hence the club could make more profit on selling tickets to the general public for the event.

Poulter from the Herald-Sun was just saying our B&F voting system (5-committee men?) favours those who play well in our wins. With only 3 wins this year it was weighted heavily towards those 3 games.

MATTHEW Richardson is the winner of the 2007 Jack Dyer Medal.
In a thrilling finish to the Richmond Best and Fairest count, held tonight (Wednesday, September 19) in Crown’s Palladium Ballroom, Richardson (214 votes) stormed home to pip Nathan Foley by one vote (213), with Shane Tuck in third place (181), Joel Bowden fourth (176) and Brett Deledio fifth (161).
It was a case of fifth time lucky for the champion Tiger forward, who took out the Jack Dyer Medal for the first time, after finishing runner-up four times previously – in 1996, 1999, 2002 and 2005.
At 32 years of age, Richardson becomes the oldest first-time winner of the Best and Fairest in Richmond’s 100-year league football history. And, he’s the oldest winner, period, since Jack Dyer won his sixth and final Tiger Best and Fairest in 1946, just a couple of months before his 33rd birthday.
Earlier in the evening, Richardson was presented with the Club’s Leading Goalkicker award for a record 12th time, eclipsing the record set by the great Jack Titus back in 1942.
‘Richo’ played all 22 games for the Tigers in the 2007 season and kicked 53 goals. He was No. 1 at the Club and No. 3 in the whole competition for total marks, with 197 at an average of nine per game; was No. 1 at the Club and No. 4 in the competition for contested marks; and also was No. 5 at the Club for inside-50 entries.
Richardson’s first-time Jack Dyer Medal success in 2007 further enhances his reputation as one of Richmond’s all-time leading players. Apart from being a 12-time winner of the Club’s Leading Goalkicker award, ‘Richo’ is a dual All-Australian (1996 & 1999) and a member of the Tigers’ Team of the Century.
The 22-year-old Foley was a revelation in the Richmond midfield this season in just his third year of AFL football.
Foley played all 22 games in ’07 and was No. 1 at the Club for total disposals, with 542 at an average of nearly 25 per game. He was No. 1 at the Club and No. 2 in the competition for hard-ball gets; No. 1 at the Club for loose-ball gets; No. 1 in the competition for bounces; No. 1 at the Club and No. 4 in the competition for centre-bounce clearances; and No. 1 at the Club for effective tackles.
Tuck, 25, also played all 22 games during the season and was a very consistent performer, gathering 505 possessions at an average of 23 per game. He was No. 1 at the Club for all clearances; No. 2 at the Club and No. 4 in the competition for hard-ball gets; and No. 2 at the Club for loose-ball gets.
The voting system for the Jack Dyer Medal is, as follows . . .
After each game, the five members of the Club’s match committee cast votes for each of the team’s 22 players.
Each player received zero to five votes from each coach, so the most an individual player could have received in a match was 25 votes.
Five votes were awarded for an outstanding performance, four for an excellent game, down to zero if the player was beaten on the day.

The last 3 games Foley didn't poll well - the games where he was heavily tagged.
After round 21 Foley was ahead by 4 votes.
In Round 22 - Nathan got 2 votes and Richo got 7 to win by 1.
Well done to the big bloke. Absolutely truly and richly deserved. He was described by everyone tonight as the "Heart & Soul" of our Club. Cannot argue with that
Great to see KB there with Denise and Rhett.
Special congratulations to Brent Hartigan for his award. The change in this young man in the last 2 years is a credit to him - he has grown up and I say this without hesitation he is a qulaity young man. I hope they keep him because he has a lot to offer
-
great report WP ...
i bet Matthew was emotional ...

Richardson wins Tiger award
20 September 2007 Herald Sun
Rebecca Williams
IT HAS taken Matthew Richardson 15 years, but the veteran Richmond forward last night finally broke through to win his first Jack Dyer Medal.
In a thrilling finish to the Richmond best-and-fairest count at Crown casino, Richardson stormed home to pip midfielder Nathan Foley by one vote.
The forward polled 214 votes ahead of Foley (213), with Shane Tuck finishing third (181).
It was a case of fifth time lucky for Richardson, who had been a runner-up four times – in 1996, 1999, 2002 and 2005.
At 32, Richardson becomes the oldest first-time winner of the Richmond best-and-fairest award in the club's history.
He also became the oldest winner since the legendary Jack Dyer claimed his sixth – and last – Richmond best-and-fairest in 1946, just two months before his 33rd birthday.
Earlier in the night, Richardson was presented with the club's leading goalkicking award for a record 12th time, eclipsing the record set by Jack Titus in 1942.
Richardson played all 22 games for the Tigers this season, kicking 53 goals. He was No. 1 at the club and third overall in the competition for total marks with 197 at an average of nine a game.
He was also No. 1 at the club and fourth in the competition for contested marks.
Richardson's Jack Dyer Medal sits alongside his dual All-Australian selection (1996 and 1999) and his place in Richmond's Team of the Century.
Foley was a revelation in the Richmond midfield this year – his third season in the AFL.
The 22-year-old played every game and was second at the club in disposals with 532 at an average of nearly 25 a game.
He was No. 1 at the club and second in the competition for hard-ball gets; No. 1 in the competition for bounces; No. 1 at the club and fourth in the competition for centre-bounce clearances and No. 1 at the club for effective tackles.
In other awards last night, Shane Edwards won the club's Rising Star award, Will Thursfield was named most improved player and Jake King was named the best first-year player.

Actually, she's off to Aberdeen, but London sounded better :lol Well, she changes planes at Heathrow lol
Were you really at the airport Moi to see your daughter off or to welcome Judd to Tigerland? ... hmmm ;D
You missed out on a dance with Richo lol.

Well said WP and thanks again for the text updates :cheers.
Foley was unlucky but if he keeps up his great work ethic he'll have a JD medal of his own in the near future. Richo has deserved a B&F after so many near misses of his own.
-
i predicted richo would just win by 1 . i told a tiger client of mine that foley deserves it but they will gift rap it to richo as a concilation prize for all his years of service and for being bridesmaid so many times.
if i were axel i would be slightly dissappointed but happy 4 richo.
2 yrs in a row imo the jd medal has been fixed, or manipulated in a way

:woohoo :congrats :jump :thatsgold

I didn't think I'd win: Richo
10:57 AM Thu 20 September, 2007
By Greg Lange,
for richmondfc.com.au
ON WEDNESDAY night Matthew Richardson entered the Richmond best and fairest awards as one of many outside chances to topple the experts’ favourite, Nathan Foley.
Four hours after sitting down at his table at the Crown Palladium, Richo was receiving a standing ovation as he walked to the stage to collect the club’s prestigious Jack Dyer Medal for the first time.
Cheers and smiles broke out across the room from teammates - Foley included - coaching and club staff and Tigers supporters, all of whom were over the moon that the 32-year-old had finally won the club’s best and fairest after being runner-up on four previous occasions.
“Coming here tonight, I did not have an expectation of winning, so I didn’t know how to feel. But when it happened it felt fantastic,” Richardson told richmondfc.com.au.
“I was a bit overwhelmed with it all, having my friends and parents here, but it felt good.”
While Richardson was a popular winner, plenty of sympathy was shown towards runner-up Nathan Foley, who was in first place heading into round 22. Unfortunately for Foley Richo played a good enough game against St Kilda in the final game of the season to pip him at the post by one vote.
“I lost by one vote to Joel Bowden two years ago, so yeah, I feel for Nathan because I thought he would win,” Richardson said.
“But he will win a best and fairest in the next couple of years, probably two or three of them, so I don’t think he will be too worried about tonight at the end of his career.”
Earlier in the evening Richardson took out Richmond’s leading goalkicker award for the twelfth time, with 53 goals for the season.
And he had the room in stitches after receiving the medal for the seventh year in a row.
“I thought I was in a bit of trouble this year, round six, when I was getting kneed in the rib cage in the ruck,” Richardson said.
“I thought, ‘no, I don’t think I’m going to get the goal kicking this year’. But wisely the match committee realised the errors of their ways and put me back in the forward line.”
