I have no idea who it will be but i thought that peoples ideas on who it would be would be interesting.
I have a hunch there may be a West Coast connection maybe Woosha. He has alot of qualities to offer our club as we transform from bottom of the ladder to the top 8 and beyond, whilst the eagles are almost starting over with a newish playing group.
I dont think Sheeds he is dynamic but not young.
Also could wayne Cambell be coming back in some form ?
Anyway i just thought i would ask the question. :)
-
Neil Balme????
-
Would love Balmey,
One wonders whether Miller saying that March was looking for a younger person in the job was
i) The truth
ii) March telling fibs to bring Miller down slowly
iii) Miller telling fibs to make the club look aimless if they hired Sheeds
-
The Australian says we're looking outside the AFL which is odd if you're looking for someone to oversee our whole footy department.
If the rumour started in WA then maybe a Steve Woodhouse. He's being moved from Eagles General manager of football operations to a list-management role, concentrating more on player contracts, with Voss and other new staff arriving. Might see the writing on the wall and look elsewhere. Former Tiger Tim Gepp who is on the Eagles match committee may get the stuff over there.
-
Knowing us, we'll probably get Greg Beck back :banghead
-
Lets hope whoever it is does not trade away our high end draft picks.

The club has got the Slade Group to find them Miller's replacement.

Tigers move swiftly on Greg Miller role
Stephen Rielly | July 29, 2008
THE man chosen to replace Greg Miller as head of the Richmond football department could be at Punt Road within six weeks and certainly ensconced in time to be involved in October's trade week and a post-season review of football operations.
The Tigers want Miller's successor to assess and, in all likelihood, reshape the department, suggesting that the appointment will be both swift and from within the game, although president Gary March denied yesterday that the new football chief had been identified.
According to March, a recruitment firm has been engaged to draw up a short list of candidates, with a subcommittee headed by chief executive Steven Wright to then settle on the appointment.
Former Carlton, Richmond and Fremantle player Chris Bond has been suggested, although he is in the first year of a three-year contract with the Dockers as list-development manager and is expected to be handed more seniority over the summer. Bond was an assistant coach with Western Bulldogs this time last year, where two others mentioned, former captain Wayne Campbell and Leon Cameron, are still by Rodney Eade's side.

Campbell and Cameron both want to coach

Hutchy is to name the front runner for Miller's replacement on the Footy Show tonight.
-
Hutchy says Chris Pelchen at Hawthorn is the front runner.
Leader of 6 names including Tim Harrington at North, Peter Schwab, Rohde, Coracran. No "Richmond people" out of curiosity.
Yes Jack you got this first ;)

Would be a huge huge coup for the RFC.
A huge step in the right direction enticing a leader in a particular field to take up a role at the club.

whats even better, you will SPEW big time, at the end of the year when the changes are made public. :lol :lol :lol :lol :lol

Well the fitness staff have been there the longest so no surprise if changes are made there. I think you're wishing for the rest Jack this year. Pelchen would be taking control for 2009 which will see Plough's contract out. Cameron and Jackson will be overseeing recruiting this year.

There's the difference between you and me.
I won't be happy, but that will be shortlived as I look forward to a new successful era.
I won't be drowning my sorrows, stabbing my club in the back.
I'll be looking forward to the future.
You have no idea how I'll react, Sunshine.
You're talking about one person who loves the club versus one who sees it as a cash grab for employment.

Well why would you have Wallace at $600,000 :banghead
Armstrong at $200,000 :banghead
And then recruit ordinary players( McMahon) and give him $330,000 a year. :banghead
Just shows what a complete dill you really are.
You are easily sucked in :lol

Mate , have you got trouble reading ?????
I have said that Pelchen has been offered the position at Punt Road.
He wont have Wallace coaching in 2009. ;)
Me wishing :lol I only tell you what I have been made aware of .
If you want to beleive in the tooth fairy, go right ahead.
Pelchen ,if he accepts will make immediate changes that will be in place before October/ November ;) ;) ;)
Contracts arent an issue either ;)
Make your mate Terry shuts the door on the way out toooooooooooooooooooo Like Miller, Wallace is earmarked for exit
-
Pelchen would be a very good start to change at Richmond.
-
he has been offered the job, its up too him to except :shh
And what happens if he doesn't?

So you are saying Pelchen will decide who is coach in 2009?
The Footy Ops manager will make that call ::) Please give me a break.... who's offered him the job?
COntracts aren't an issue you say. So who's going to pay them out Jack? You or one of the faceless going to put their hands on their pockets?
This is why we are a joke of a club
ANd just on another thing you say you only tell us what you'v been made aware of?
Doesn't this concern you that you hear these things, that people tell you these things when they really shouldn't?
Don't you think these people are an indictment on the RFC to be leaking info?
Or do you think it is OK because you seem to get so much pleasure out of it?
Why don't you name these people and shame them because if what you are saying is true then this is what these selfish "richmond People" deserve because they are an absolute disgrace
Actually they should be shamed whether it is true or not as they appear to have no respect for the RFC

Dont have a go at me WP.!
Was right with the Miller situation months in advance.
And will be on the money with Wallet
Make sure you say goodbye to Terry before the last game, you wont have the opportunity afterwards
And to MT, your go on and on about stabilty ::).
We have 2 coaches for 9 year, pretty stable if you ask me, what are we going to give Wallace another year because his contract says that :banghead :banghead
Dont think so.
Contracts only get honoured if you perform these days. ;)
Good bye and good ridance Wallet
-
no club in the afl would keep a coach if he has dished up what the RFC has over the last 4 years.
finals would have saved him and that aint going to happen.

For crying out loud Jack despite what you think I wasn't having a go at you :banghead
Did I call you a goose, idiot, nuffer, d/head etc. Have I ever? NO - so don't accuse me of having a go at you
You raised a number of points which I have asked questions of you?
Which as per normal you have failed to answer
I will ask them again:
- you have implied (you not me) that Plechen has to accept the job, I asked what happens if he doesn't.
- you said that if he takes the job, then he wont have Wallace as coach. Are you saying he will decide who the coach is
- who's going to payout the contracts, and please note I say contracts not contract meaning if you are correct and everyone is out the door then I think there will be a number of contracts to be paid out. Who's goona pay for it you, me, who?
- I asked you - doesn't it concern you that you hear all these things, that you get told things that really if they are coming from inside the club you shoudn't be hearing them? You say that the RFC leaks like the titantic and you hear all these things but you do nothing to stop the leaks.
- I asked why wont you name and shame these people - you say the leaks are wrong but you do nothing to end it
So if asking these questions is having a go at you then perhaps I am guilty ::)

Yep $600k (your words) isn't an issue lol. You act as thought this club is awashed with money. We still have a $4m debt you know and we want to expand our football staff ::). You've put 2 and 2 together and got 5 like you've done for the past 2 years. Round 8, 2007 Wallace was meant to get the sack wasn't it or was it round 14 or the end of last year or round 8 this year, etc :whistle. Let it go Jack for your own sake :sleep.
Might add the Dogs made a similar massive play for Pelchen last year and he knocked them back. I hope he says yes but I won't count my eggs until they're hatched.
So you are saying Pelchen will decide who is coach in 2009?
The Footy Ops manager will make that call ::) Please give me a break.... who's offered him the job?

As I said WP it's more wishful thinking. If these faceless twirps have money to throw around why don't they pay off our debt ::). Even Melbourne could raise $2m.

LOL you believing we've been a stable club for the past 9 years. What were you asleep during the whole of 2004 when we made a $2m loss and the club was split between two boardroom tickets. An AFL club these days is more than the senior coach FFS. The WHOLE club needs to be stable. Stable as in the whole club functioning as a unit and everyone pulling in the same direction and sticking to long-term planning. Not faceless idiots behind the scenes having their ongoing hissy fits and panic attacks searching for the messiah as has been the case for the past 26 years ::).

I know we couldve, I dont need to be told. Getting Pelchen will be a step in the right direction, but theres still a lot of poo to be moved out.
But one argument I dont agree with is the whole 2004 draft saga. Everyones an expert in hindsight.

Let me teach you something. You can use the big fancy words but it doesn't mean anything if you cant use where it counts.
I just passed Year 12 but i am working in the Finance Industry and know more about the business than a sad old lonely old man.
email me and maybe you might learn a thing or 2...
ooh and by the way if you think Bowden wasn't in the votes today you are more dillusional than i thought.

What no comment re: Bowden. Loser. he was in the votes, a blind man could see that.
Anything beats having a mortgage at age 55 or whatever you are. Do you think before you speak?
Finance Industry is one of the top 5 industries in the world. :wallywink

I wouldn't even bother laughing.
I often wonder why people argue on the forums. Your opinion is your opinion and not everyone will agree. Fact of life. Some take it soooo seriously. Some are obviously just enjoy taking the pee out of a poster and I can understand that but don't personally see the attraction. I tried once on BF, just for fun, but I got really bored with the circular arguments really quickly.

Hawthorn recruiting boss Chris Pelchen and VFL chief Peter Schwab seem to be the two hot favourites to replace Greg Miller in the senior football position at Richmond.

From today's Australian
Stephen Rielly and Greg Denham | August 26, 2008
Richmond's search for a new chief of its football department has narrowed from five candidates to two, with Athletics Australia chief executive Danny Corcoran flying home from the Beijing Olympic Games to see the Tiger board tomorrow.
Corcoran, a fitness adviser at Punt Road in the late 1980s, was a successful football manager at both Essendon and Melbourne before leaving for athletics four years ago. He is still considered an outsider, however, with Hawthorn's list and recruitment manager Chris Pelchen the favourite.
Pelchen is believed to be meeting the Tigers tomorrow. Former Hawthorn player and coach Peter Schwab, former player and assistant coach and present North Melbourne list manager Tim Harrington and player agent Dan Richardson were also interviewed as potential replacements for Greg Miller, who was sacked by the Tigers last month.

I'm sick of this rubbish the Australian keeps handing up.
That's three articles now that barely had an ounce of truth playing up everyone we bloody talked to and now here is a fourth. :banghead :banghead

Sorry, but Corcoran was always in the mix and is my clear 2nd favourite for the position. He told the club he couldn't talk to us until the olympics was over and now that everyone is on their way back he's coming in for an interview, just as he said.
The fact that it is going to be one of Pelcan or Corcoran has me very happy, I hope the article is right.
-
If it was up to me ....
I'd go for Corcoran :thumbsup

I have no problem with that but I do have a problem with the two prior article announcing Cameron Schwab and then a couple of weeks later, Peter Schwab was to be the announced one and it keeps on rolling. I have no problem with either candidate but I do with the garbage the Australian has served up before we've got to this new article. It's a freakin' circus.
-
Well the others have always been media speculation and trying to make a story by connecting others to the job like Robert Shaw just cause he's left another club. Corcoran was always on our shortlist.
-
Caro just said on 3aw that she doesn't think Pelchen is over the line. Others still in there. Peter Schwab still in it. She says Pelchen has done a good/impressive job but he wasn't around Hawthorn for that 2004 draft and Clarkson and Buckenara made the decision to draft Buddy and co.
Healy then said "whispers" says Pelchen is staying at the Hawks.
-
If Pelchen really has pulled out of the race then it looks like Corcoran it is.
-
If it was up to me ....
I'd go for Corcoran :thumbsup
For those that are ignorant on these matters - ME lol - can you tell me why you'd go for Corcoran over the Pelican?
Do you know enough to tell me the good points about him and Pelican so we can weigh up the options?
-
Have seen it mentioned that Corcoran is a Richmond man, but can't confirm that
Has a good histroy from his times at Essendon & Melbourne (was at Melbourne when they played in the GF)
Spent some time heading up Athletics Australia which deals with the pinnacle of elite athletes competing at international level.
Dealing with high expectations in an under resourced field where we are expected to go up against the Bolt's of the world.
Corcoran is already the upper manager type that we want, but has spent 4 years out of AFL
Pelchen is still in football but our new role would still be a promotion for him as no one in AFL is proven in this position
I think either candidate is as strong as the other, just in different ways
-
"* Richmond's search for a new head of its football department took an unexpected turn yesterday when the favoured candidate, Hawthorn's list and recruitment manager Chris Pelchen, withdrew from the process.
Former Melbourne and Essendon football manager and current chief executive of Athletics Australia, Danny Corcoran, will meet the Richmond board today but is no certainty to win the position as North Melbourne's current list manager Tim Harrington has re-emerged as a strong contender."

no surprises there.
he wants to see a flag at glenferrie within the next 2 years
-
*sigh* ANyone know why TIm Harrington is so good?
-
To Harrington's credit, he's built a Top 4 side with no early draft picks and a massively under resourced football department. They also haven't completely bottomed out at any stage, rebuilding in a similar fashion to Geelong.
-
You good points, he's certainly not been blessed with comfortable surroundings at North but continues to do the business.
Still, for a Football Chief, I like the sound of Corcoran for sure.
-

Yes, Corcoran certainly had a good reputation. Whether it was justified or not I have no idea and no opinion except to say that going after someone with a demonstrated track record is always going to increase the likelihood of it being a good decision.
-
Mike on 3aw just said Pelchen won't be going to Richmond and chastised Russell for saying Pelchen put Hawthorn's list together when 75% of that list was already at Hawthorn prior to Pelchen arriving there. Most of the credit at Hawthorn should go to Buckenara and Turnball now in Perth.
-
For those that are ignorant on these matters - ME lol - can you tell me why you'd go for Corcoran over the Pelican?
Do you know enough to tell me the good points about him and Pelican so we can weigh up the options?
My opinion Moi is based on the fact that he held this type of position at both Essendon and Melbourne. From what has been written and what has been said he did well at both Clubs. Another thing that I like is that he went from Essendon who've never been short of $$$$ to Melb who have always struggled for $$$. So he has seen both sides as they say.
Then there is his currently role at Athletics Australia, which is pretty far removed from football but involved dealing with bureaucrats, politicans, sponsors and anyone else who wants to to stick their nose in ;). I'm also assuming this means he has had exposure to other countries methods, structures and procedures in running a sporting organisation.
I just think he ticks the right boxes when they talk about needing to be "contemporary" (whatever that is supposed to mean and represent)

we need to get the best.....whoever TF that is......

Well, considering I have no idea, I'm relying on what everyone else says.
So thanks for that, Willie :thumbsup
As long as whoever it is, he/she is the best or one of the best and we're not getting someone because everyone else is taken.
-
It seems looking from outside it's pointing more and more towards Corcoran if he wants the job.

"I have not been approached by Richmond or anyone else" is what Corcoran said on SEN this morning according to BF.
Corcoran making a smoke screen or just another fine piece of the Australian journalism yet again. :rollin :banghead

mmm considering Wallace and Shaw dont really like each interesting concept.

I wouldn't think Shaw would be a good option.
He held the same sort of role at Freo and under his watch they traded and drafted Bummer rejects (Bradley, Johnson, Solomon)... not a glowing report card I wouldn't have thought :help

Most applicants they have interviewed have knocked the job back.
Chris Pelchen said no due to the perceived"" in house fighting "" and Mark Evans from Hawthorn likewise.
The uncertainty at Punt Road will make it extremely hard to attract the best applicant available.

Peter Schwab baulks at Tigers role
Greg Denham | The Australian | September 04, 2008
FORMER Hawthorn coach Peter Schwab has withdrawn from the race to become Richmond's new general manager of football operations, a position that has been vacant since the axing of Greg Miller in July.
Schwab, a dual premiership team-mate of Richmond coach Terry Wallace when the pair played with Hawthorn, went through the interview process with the Tigers but pulled out because of family reasons.
Another candidate, leading player manager Dan Richardson, has also withdrawn after being interviewed by the Tigers.
Schwab, who worked at Richmond for three years as an assistant coach, in 1992 under Allan Jeans and for the following two seasons under John Northey, said yesterday he would remain in his position as chief executive of AFL Victoria, which runs the VFL and TAC Cup competitions.
"I'm staying where I am," Schwab said. "I'm more inclined to stay in the AFL system than return to club footy."
Richardson, who manages a number of high-profile players including Collingwood's Alan Didak, also cited family reasons for withdrawing last week.
"With a young family, it's not the right time to do it," Richardson said. "It was flattering to have been approached."
Former Melbourne and Essendon football manager Danny Corcoran said he was still "weighing up" his options after returning a week ago from Beijing.
Corcoran, who is chief executive of Athletics Australia, said last month that he had never ruled out a return to the AFL at the elite level.
North Melbourne list manager Tim Harrington was confirmed yesterday as still being in the running for the Richmond position.
Tigers president Gary March said last month that Miller's successor should be a "contemporary" person with the necessary experience to have an immediate input into decisions made about drafting, trading and possible further changes to the Tigers football department.
March said yesterday "at least three" candidates remained in contention.
"We're likely to have it finalised next week," he said.

Peter Schwab baulks at Tigers role
Greg Denham | The Australian | September 04, 2008
FORMER Hawthorn coach Peter Schwab has withdrawn from the race to become Richmond's new general manager of football operations, a position that has been vacant since the axing of Greg Miller in July.
Schwab, a dual premiership team-mate of Richmond coach Terry Wallace when the pair played with Hawthorn, went through the interview process with the Tigers but pulled out because of family reasons.
Another candidate, leading player manager Dan Richardson, has also withdrawn after being interviewed by the Tigers.
Schwab, who worked at Richmond for three years as an assistant coach, in 1992 under Allan Jeans and for the following two seasons under John Northey, said yesterday he would remain in his position as chief executive of AFL Victoria, which runs the VFL and TAC Cup competitions.
"I'm staying where I am," Schwab said. "I'm more inclined to stay in the AFL system than return to club footy."
Richardson, who manages a number of high-profile players including Collingwood's Alan Didak, also cited family reasons for withdrawing last week.
"With a young family, it's not the right time to do it," Richardson said. "It was flattering to have been approached."

With due respect, Ramps, you have been championing Jack for the last couple of years with all his rumours haven't you? The fact you think it is disgraceful is what I've been trying to tell Jack for a long time that none of that kind of stuff does any good for the club. And guess what, we've now got the situation we're in now. How must Wallace feel? You do your best and most people think you're doing a good job, but everyone else wants to stab you in the back because someone has been saying, We're getting Sheeds this week, someone else says we're getting Williams, someone else says we're getting Hardwick. Excuse me, but we already have a coach. We'll end up with Frawley again, because every good coach in the league will think we're hopeless and Wallace will be long gone in disgust.

I havent been championing Jacko at all. On some points I think Jacko was correct, the reality is that for the best part of 4 years we have been extremely bad, not once making the finals, the only exception has been the last half of this season. Throughout the year I said in these forums if he wins 1/2 the games then its hard to sack him, he did that by r22 but the reality was that until R11 we had had another bad season. Further, I was disappointed throughout the past 4 years with the style of play of the team. I dont believe its possible to win a flag playing the type of footy that we have predominantly played, and last I was against some of the recruiting that has taken place ie. Now clearly, I hold some similar views to jacko and afew other posters, but that is different to what we are seeing today on forums etc. Its like sharks circling ... and its not a good look. If the club wants to make a decision, it should make it, keep the plough or sack him but make a decision, dont let the speculation continue unabated. It is the speculation and how people are feeding it that is disappointing.
-
I agree Ramps, it's not a good look.
Some opposition supporters just can't comprehend why we would do it now.
Last year, maybe but after a good year, they don't understand
And neither do I
We'll be a laughing stock again
-

Interesting point you make Ramps, in the sense that from where I am sitting the President has supposedly made it clear in his recent interviews that Wallace is coaching Richmond in 2009 and will see out his contract.
But the speculation continues. Why?
I agree with you 150% it isn't a good look for the club and the sharks feeding frenzy is disappointing but it is at a stage now where I really don't know how they can stop it and probably more concerning to me at least is they (the Club) dont seem to know how or want to stop it either.
-
probably more concerning to me at least is they (the Club) dont seem to know how or want to stop it either.
It seems like a plan of action from the start.
Sack Miller and then destabilise so Wallace feels uncomfortable
Wallace quits
Appoint desired coach
End of problem
We're up to the Wallace feeling uncomfortable stage - two more stages to go and all the conspirators will be happy ::)

My view Moi and I posted this on the Patrick SMith thread....
We've taken a few steps forward and then our improvement comes under threat from egos out of control which = massive leap backwards.

Anyone who's posted on these boards for the last year or so I doubt would be shocked by recent events ;)

good question why dont they just end the speculation, my concern is what happens if we fall flat on our proverbial next year with everyone knowing that by mid year he and the club know that he wont be coaching beyond 09...does he just coach out the year which i find ludicrous...
its about time March as President puts these spot fires out and do the job he should be doing....
as mentioned in another post if anyone doesnt think it will have an effect on the younger players better think again.
so many swings and roundabouts to be played out i think.
this club at times doesnt even know of the word professional..
SSOA :banghead

True 3rogerd. Professional is not something we seem at the moment, it's more like amatuer hour at the under 14's :help
Question is how to put the spot fires out? IMV get them to face the media together and perhaps at the annointing of the new Director of Footy would be a bloody good place to start.
Secondly get rid of the leaks

First part - yep WP get all of them to show a united front in front of the media. Then all just shut up from then on. I thought this year we were just going to let the footy do the talking and even though it has in the second half of the year we still can't stop putting our collective foot in our mouth when facing the media :banghead.
Second part is nigh impossible. Club leaks like a sieve :-\.

But if you were to know where the leaks are coming from or more to the point who the leaks are wouldn't you get rid of them? You wouldn't slap on the wrist and say "naughty now don't do it again".. would you? :banghead

Walsh has joined the Eagles as midfield assistant coach according to 3aw just now.
-
Maybe we'll find out tonight or tomorrow.
I beleive there is a board meeting happening tonight.
Maybe , only the formalities remain.
You would have to think that they ( RFC board) would have all of this settled by next Wednesday.
Surely if at all possible they would like there new acquisition to be present at the J.D. Medal.

Nothing from Caro tonight on 3aw. It seems the RFC has gone down in the bunker before the board meeting tonight.

From the HUN today:
Robert Shaw has emerged as a late candidate for head of football operations at Richmond.
It's understood Shaw has been interviewed for the job by Laurie Serafini of the Slade management group.
Shaw, who played for Essendon and coached Fitzroy and Adelaide, recently returned to Melbourne after stepping down as Fremantle's general manager of football operations.
-
LMAO@ Shaw > Miller.
GMAFB !!!!!!!!!!!!!
-
If Robert Shaw is appointed then the whole board should step down en masse. You cant come out and sack Miller and state your looking for someone more contemporary ... and then appoint Shaw.
-
This club is a joke if this happens. Has Robert Shaw had success at any club ???
What about a Neil Balme or a Robert Wiley.
-
It's understood Shaw has been interviewed for the job by Laurie Serafini of the Slade management group.
LMAO@Laurie Serafini still floating around :P ::) ???
-
Good Lord.
Didnt we sack Miller early to get ahead of the field in regards to poaching a new football operations manager??
And now we may settle for Shaw. :scream :scream :help
-
What's Shaw's great credentials, Blaisee?
-
What's Shaw's great credentials, Blaisee?
He doesn't have many good ones
Do we really want the guy who had a part in building Freo's list for starters?
-
What's Shaw's great credentials, Blaisee?
Age 53.
Played 51 games between 1974 and 1981 for the Essendon.
Senior coach of Fitzroy 1991-94 (record: 28-58 = 32%)
Senior coach of Adelaide 1995-96. (record: 17-27 = 38%. Crows won back-to-back flags after he left).
Assistant coach at Essendon 1999-2005. (2000 flag under Sheedy)
General Manager of Football Operations at the Fremantle 2006-07.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robert_Shaw_(footballer)
Given how Essendon and Freo's lists topped up, aged and fell away dreadfully in those periods it won't give anyone much confidence if Shaw got the job of overseeing our whole footy dept :-\. Nor is he contemporary. He's of Greg Miller's generation.
I'm hoping Corcoran and Pelchen are still in it.

I am confused now blaisee ... and apologies if I've misunderstood your previous posts but I thought you had suggested they had their 'man'

Harrington from North Melbourne?
I was under the impression the 3 favourites in the running were Corcoran, Pelchen and Harrington but I could be wrong.
-
SEN just replayed a snippet from Robert Shaw's interview this morning. He said he's spoken to a few clubs but he's had an extensive interview process with one club (presumably us).
They also said they (the media) were expecting us to announce our new director of football this week but now it looks like sometime next week.
-
from pelchin to corcoran to....................robby shaw.....hahaha
well done RFC you have done us proud yet again.
-
from pelchin to corcoran to....................robby shaw.....hahaha

Yep we sacked Miller so we could get the best before the end of the season :P. I still hope Corcoran is one of those having 2nd interviews. Mind you the club could already have the person locked away and is waiting to Wednesday night to announce it.
-
If we don't get Corcoran and settle for Shaw then this is a monumental c0ck up.
If we don't have the position filled by the end of next week then it remains to be asked why March couldn't wait until we were in the midst of footy finals action to sack Miller thereby missing the media spotlight.
Again, his PR skills are worrying.

Disagree on this bit, we could be targeting someone at a club involved in a grand final. If we haven't made the appointment the week after the grand final then i'll start worrying. If we appoint Shaw before the grand final then I'll be very peeed off as Shaw meets NONE of the credentials that March said the position required.

The week after the GF would be the final chance to make the appointment as trade week starts the following Monday.

as far as I am concerned no news is good news ;)

I suppose you are right if we end up hiring someone from within the AFL - but I havent heard too many names that are both appealing and interested.
The problem is it is almost too late for Danny Corcoran to be engaged in the upcoming trade period - he's come out of the Olympics @ Athletics Australia and I don't suppose he is that up to date with regards to trade targets and the state of our list.
-
The new football manager wouldn't actually be overseeing the trades or list management, but managing the people who are responsible for those areas.
-

Really? I would have thought that the list management team identify some players and then the football operations manager determines the budgetary restraints and therefore has final say on any list change.
-
I just hope we don't regret the decision we make here 5 years down the track. :banghead

I'm sure he'd have involvement, but it wouldn't require him to be in place already to make these decisions as was suggested re: Corcoran being out of AFL for a while. The details of each area is the job of the people we currently have in place.

Healy on 3aw just said now that two weeks ago Pelchen has re-signed with the Hawks for 2 years.
It was in answer to some caller who claimed he heard a rumour that Hardwick (as senior coach) and Pelchen would be crossing to Punt Rd as soon as Hawthorn's season is over.
-
Forgot to say Caro said tonight on 3aw that the club will be chatting to former Lion Marcus Ascroft.
-
I think ashcroft would be interviewed for a assistant coach or development position .
-
Mike just said so on 3aw when Healy asked him.
-
Caro said the other night that Lethal rated Ascroft highly and McRae would have good knowledge of his former teammate. No idea what Ascroft is like as footy admin but he fits the contemporary category.

Healy on 3aw tonight said it'll be announced next week and it's now down to just two candidates.

What a stuff up, our current list manager and an ex-assistant coach, have we bothered talking to the janitor?

From what I understand until Leigh Matthews dropped the bomb, Ashcroft was in line to become a major part of the Footy managing team up there and was already in the position being Football Administration Manager if that holds more creedence . . . Then Voss came along, didnt renew his contract and gave "Gubby" the whole job instead, while getting another assistant coach to be by his side.

Yep Voss wanted to have his own appointment in the job to stamp his mark. Same with Hudson who was the only assistant coach out of contract.
Still it's been over 2 months since Miller was sacked and 3 weeks since the season finished and still no appointment. So much for getting in early to get the best person before the end of the season :-\.
-
I would still be surprised if Ashcroft left Queensland. I have no opinion about whether he would be any good or not but he has certainly been there, done that as far as a football career goes. He is just so ensconced in the football scene up here it is hard to imagine him going anywhere south of the Tweed.

Miller? :lol
-
So it seem this saga is finally over ;D
Seriously, I actually see this as a good appointment. :clapping
Cameron is good at what he does and appears to have a good working relationship with everyone in the footy dept :thumbsup

March has made a complete cock up of this and just shown that he allowed his own personal thoughts over ride the clubs well being in sacking Miller. To appoint Cameron into this new role means we couldnt find anyone else so we might as well put someone in that made a great fist of Melbourne, have a look at there list management as we speak.
March is the one that should go, he is following in the footsteps of Rod Butters and allowing personal sentiment to get in the way of the betterment of RFC.
Before all you March lovers shoot me down and say that he has turned the club around off the field in the past 3 years, that is just pure crap, he has ridden on the coat tail of Steven Wright...he is the mastermind not that dill March.
Disgrace we now have a failed list manager and recruiting manager as our Director of Football.......

I agree with everything except that I don't consider Cameron a failed list manager. I was happy to have him come to the club in that position, but I think its pretty embarrasing that we ended up going through all this crap just to make an internal promotion.
-
No problem with CC, but the club has just made a monumental cock up of the whole process.
To sack Miller like that just to promote Cameron internally after a country wide search where all the prime candidates knocked us back just makes us look like a complete shambles yet again.
March needs to go
-
Ch 10 news has confirmed Cameron's appointment as well. No mention of who is Cameron's replacement as list manager though.

This whole episode is really a joke.
Dont know a whole lot about Cameron's ability so he may turn out ok.......hopefully he does.
The fact that we head hunted several people from other clubs and they all knocked us back is very alarming.
Depite the fact that Frawley seen out his 5 years and Wallace is set to do the same, we still stink of unstability.
The way that March has ran around behind Wallace (rightly or wrongly) is disgraceful. No wonder no one wants to come to us, they cant truct anyone at Punt Road.
RFC forever a basketcase >:(

What on earth is all this fuss about?
As I understand it Cameron applied for the position late/r in the process. If so and he gets the job how can this be a stuff up by the March, the Club, the AFL, the Council, the ALP, Liberals, C of E and the Vatican?
Not to mention Sarah Palin. ::)
You never know he might just be the best person for the job. And the sky hasn't fallen in yet.

I would have thought this position would have been a promotion and also significantly more $$$ to most people we were after.
Let's hope that CC does well in the job.

The new football manager wouldn't actually be overseeing the trades or list management, but managing the people who are responsible for those areas.
Seems he always was going to
“As head of our football department, Craig Cameron will oversee the draft and recruiting process together with Recruiting Manager Francis Jackson,” Wright said.
If we had of known that Cameron was the only logical choice this late in the day. What does Craig Cameron do now that he never used to do? What about Paul Armstrong? Where does this leave him?
-
Cameron will be interviewed on SEN on 'the run home' sometime this arvo with Francis and Ox.

Armstrong is football operations manager (off-field footy matters). Cameron as general manager of football would be his boss as he would be Francis Jackson and Wallace's boss. Cameron now will oversee the whole footy dept and answerable to the Board. As list manager he was only in charge of the make-up of our playing list and recruiting.

If there's perceived instability from outside looking in even if it's mostly media driven that wouldn't make outsiders that comfortable giving up their current positions to come to Richmond.
All we've done if what Essendon and Carlton did with their coaching positions last year. Sack the old guy on the basis we're getting in early to find the best candidate and when everyone we were interested says no, go for bloke who is in the office next door to the one we've sacked :whistle. A farce in the end by not uncommon at footy clubs.
I hope Cameron does a massively better job than he did at Melbourne when it comes to recruiting. I wasn't over the moon when we got him as list manager because of his record at the Dees let alone general manager of our whole footy department. He hasn't overseen the building of a premiership list. This upcoming draft is crucial to us building further to the young core we already have now for us to become a consistenly successful/finals side.

i of course am just speculating as well....but who is to say that these candidates knocked us back???
i mean they applied for the job and we interviewed them....it's quite possible that after that process we found these candidates to be not what we're lookng for and would not fit the role and we knock them back....is that not possible???....
media sometimes report "so and so dropped out of the running" but it can definitely be that they dropped out cos after the interview they found that they cannot meet what RFC expect out of GM

Did you find it humourous when Essendon & Carlton fired Sheedy & Pagan well before the season finished to make sure they got the best candidate, only to promote Knights & Ratten who were already at the club as assistants?

Greg Denham in The Australian
Richmond yesterday announced list and strategy manager Craig Cameron has had his position upgraded to that of general manager of football operations.
Cameron joined Richmond this year after more than a decade at Melbourne in recruiting and list management.
The Tigers took several months to finally fill the role that was left vacant by the sacking of Greg Miller, mainly because a number of nominated candidates rejected the position. Richmond's No 1 target was former player Neil Balme, who this year signed a new two-year deal to remain as Geelong's general manager of football operations.
Others who either declined the role or were in the mix included Peter Schwab, Chris Pelchen, Robert Shaw, Danny Corcoran, Dan Richardson and Tim Harrington.

Snippet from Sportal
"I'm a left-fielder," Cameron said. "I wasn't working towards this when I started here in February as a list and strategy manager and that's where I thought I would be for the next four or five years."
"I didn't consider it at the start - I just thought as the process went on and talking to a few people around the club that it might have been an option."
"I wasn't encouraged directly by people within the club."
------------------------
"We need to make sure that we don't take this year's burst at the end of the season as an indication that we're already on the way and there's nothing more to be done," Cameron said.
"We need to keep working and have a plan going forward."
"We need to play finals at some point and show that we've got sustainable ability on the field over a couple of years."
--------------
"After a long and exhaustive search, it is pleasing that we found our ideal candidate internally," Steven Wright said.
"Craig is held in extremely high regard throughout the football industry and we are delighted that he’ll be continuing his association with our club in this new capacity.
"As head of our football department, Craig will oversee the draft and recruiting process together with recruiting manager Francis Jackson."

Michael Gleeson | The Age | September 24, 2008
Cameron, who was confirmed in the Tigers' senior football position yesterday only seven months after he joined the club as the list manager, said the club was well placed with young talent, which left it open to trades for mature players. He was doubtful that that would include drafting Ben Cousins.
"We have to be open-minded about trades, I wouldn't like to put us in hole and not take anyone over 25. But I think our philosophy will be to go to the draft," Cameron said. "At this stage, I think (Cousins) is probably not one for us."
Richmond's older players will remain at the club next year. The club is finalising a contract with Joel Bowden and negotiations are continuing with captain Kane Johnson for next season, while Matthew Richardson, Nathan Brown and Troy Simmonds are all contracted.
"I don't think the older guys are ready to drop off the perch right this second, so I imagine that some of them might play on beyond next year," Cameron said. "So maybe we can squeeze a little bit more of them (to bridge the gap as the younger players mature)."
Cameron's appointment came after a lengthy process, and one that troubled coach Terry Wallace for his lack of involvement in selection for the important position. With Wallace in the final year of his five-year contract next year, the renewal or otherwise of his contract will be one of the most significant issues confronting Cameron.
"Terry and I have spoken about that and at the moment, he is comfortable with where things are at in terms of he has a year to go and it will play itself out and outside of that, we probably won't talk about it too much," Cameron said.
"There is no doubt the groundwork is done in terms of the list, we need to keep adding to it.
"If you look at the age breakdown and the number of games played and finals games, a lot of the work needed is just time and whether Terry is the right guy to take that to the next step is a decision we have to make in the next 12 months."
The Tigers will hire two new recruiting staff and Francis Jackson will remain as head recruiter while Cameron manages the list and contracts. All assistant coaches who were out of contract have been re-signed and further coaches may yet be hired.
"I think the important thing for us is to bring in a long-term strategy and make sure that we have an operational plan that underpins that strategy, so we need to make sure we don't take this year's burst at the end of the season as an indication that we are on the way and there is nothing more to be done," he said.
"We need to make sure we have a plan going forward."

Greg Denham hammered Craig Cameron's appointment on KB's show this morning (not that Denham is much of a judge when it comes to making accurate statements).
"What are they doing down at Richmond KB. Cameron is a nice bloke but he wouldn't even sack his tea lady. Richmond are going to have to make some hard decisions about their list over the next couple of years. I wouldn't think Cameron is the man for the job when you look back at his track record at Melbourne."
-
"There is no doubt the groundwork is done in terms of the list, we need to keep adding to it.
Pleasing to hear. Let's hope this upcoming draft backs up the talk. It's just not time we need though. The recruiting staff need to deliver in the next two drafts and fill the ruck, key forward and ballwinning mid deficiencies on our list before the new teams come in. We need then more than 3 picks per draft.

The Tigers will hire two new recruiting staff and Francis Jackson will remain as head recruiter while Cameron manages the list and contracts.
Maybe we are going to follow the Hawthorn model of a recruiter on each side of the country. They have Buckenara as their western-based recruiting manager in Perth and Graham Wright as their eastern-based recruiting manager in Melbourne, and they are both overseen by Hawthorn's list manager and recruiting boss, Chris Pelchen.
