No doubt you'll get some charming messages on this thread ;) but for my part, just want to congratulate you on having a go at the hardest gig in town.
With virtually no help administratively, poor recruitment support, development et al, plus the enormity of the task you undertook, I'm not surprised you ran out of time to complete.
But I think you've been amazing the way you've conducted yourself, and are a credit to yourself. You sucked it in daily and held your head very high the last couple of weeks, despite what I can only imagine was unbearable pressure.
I can only hope the football department's review will thoroughly address the things you didn't have and that the next coach can get the support you didn't get.
I hope whoever gets the gig has loyal staff, coterie groups and former employees that won't knife them in the back every time things get too hard. That we as a club can get behind one another and get this club back up where we belong.

Look I don't care who coaches Richmond in the future.
But about Terry, yep I think he made some mistakes in his tenure and him not coaching us next year will be a good thing but................
I personally think we have a better list now than we did when he first arrived and the new coach will have to get rid of less players than what Terry could have or should have post 2004 into season 2005.
And the finals series we achieved under Spud was a last hurrah from an ageing list. The equivalent of a premiership for RFC making the prelim in 01 after a string of near misses just like Carlton winning the flag in 95 after near misses in the preceding 3 seasons. Terry had a much younger list and if we go through all the crap yes he did recruit some duds but we have plenty of kids who in 2 or so years will be in the 23-25 age group.
Its all said and done come Friday so rather than focus on some of the negatives of the past, its all over. Our beef or grudge is based on what we feel should have been done at RFC rather than a personal one. Time to be magnanamous and wish him the best of luck in his future endevours.
Overall a club whose dirty laundry has been aired publically from a board room and coterie group sense that continually for the last 27 years has allowed self centred people to run the agenda from an era that is so bygone has also had a great deal of responsibility to today's events. I can only hope everyone at the club will be steering in the right direction and will have the same agenda.
All I can say now is good luck to him and his family post Friday night.

Hope we can all put the negativity behind us and see just a good game of football with Terry going out with head held up high.
Did an OK job at a very very very difficult workplace. Cheers Plough.

Will take the new coach three years to get rid of the rubbish out of the list that he has recruited.
thanks Terry, thank you very much :chuck :thatsgold

I have to agree Moi that the way TW has conducted himself especially over the last few weeks is a credit to him.

I wish him all the best for the future

Terry, good luck! You failed to do what evry coach since since 1982 has failed to do as well so don't feel bad! You conducted yourself with utmost dignity all the way and never pointed a finger of blame in any direction in public. For that alone you should be respected!

Richo reminiscing on TW
http://www.afl.com.au/news/newsarticle/tabid/208/newsid/78170/default.aspx
By Matthew Richardson
7:05 AM Thu 04 June, 2009
Something Terry always had the capacity to do was pull a seemingly-bizarre rabbit out of the hat and make it work.
It seems so long ago when he arrived at Punt Road that I find it hard to remember what he did differently to Spud (previous coach Danny Frawley). But one thing I reckon was a real strength of Plough’s was his ability to pull off against-the-odds wins, which was a characteristic of his at the Bulldogs as well.
He got a real kick out of out the challenge of a really tough game and coming up with a tactic for one given game that could get you an upset win. I guess the biggest one was when the Bulldogs beat Essendon in 2000, but we had one against Adelaide at Telstra Dome that really stands out for me. He was really good at coming up with a tactic which he made you believe could work for that one day.
I'd love to be playing this Friday night for Terry's last game. He's been here for five years and for him to be in the 500 club is incredible. Last week, when they showed the names of the others who were in it, it really hit home what an achievement it was. So it would have been nice to play the past two weeks.
It's ironic how football works out, that Terry’s last game will be against the club he coached and played with. The Dogs will want to spoil the party, and it's the Friday night game, so it'll be a great atmosphere at Docklands. So it's really disappointing for me to miss out.

bye bye terry and dont look back
btw where is our apology you creep
-
WOW....so much hate.I cant believe it.
Terry might have a winning % under 40......I dont dispute there has been numerous recruiting blunders.BUT I still believe he has built a Frame for a successful team.
Lets not forget that in many ways its not a level playing field Richmond did not have the off field resources availible to it like the power interstate teams. Thats not Terrys fault.
I will debate anyone that the list is healthier now than it was in 2004.
Kevin Bartlet developed some champion Richmond players...But was given the flick before they blossomed.
Two years from now...the Richmond coach will be reaping the rewards from Terrys ground work.
All the best Plough.
-
Catch ya Terry. Cheers for the tears. :cheers
-
I am one that thought that Terry was right for us.
But I have since been proven wrong as I have read in here that we had a 37% win ratio. And that is no good in any mans or womans view.
I think he has done a few good things alnong the way.
One was his idea's about getting money for the positions you placed in at the end of the year and not to be given the draft picks.
Or something close to that.
But it is a fitting end to your role as top coach, as it is against the team you stabbed in the back.
See Ya Terry have a good time in the Gold Coast.
-
at least he wont need the solarium on the coast ::)
-
Nearly 5 years on and we sit 2 and 8 on the ladder!
37% win ratio
No finals
Wooden spoon
Awesome job Terry!
All you creeps that congratulate him are weak and pathetic!
I don't care how he has handled himself in the last month, BIG DEAL!
He was paid to coach and win games and he has failed!
Worse than Spud!
-
This thread was designed to wish Terry all the best for the future and not for bagging him as I believe that has been done to death. Did your mother not tell you that if you haven't got anything nice to say about someone then stuff off to the BF forum. :banghead
-
karma will get you every time

cant say anything then, as there is nothing good to say about him. ;)

Terry had a crack at fixing the biggest basket case in the AFL.
A team that has been described as having "concrete cancer".No one has been able to fix it for almost 30 years.
His credibility has taken a massive hit....You would think thats punishment enough,but people still want blood and to urinate on his grave.
Just move on people...move on. The next victim is only months away.

Dead right and it's stuff wits like Jackstar that will give the next coach the same medicine.

I dont know if anyone was listening to 3aw tonight, but I got the impression that Leigh Matthews probably thinks that he could probably turn it around. Anyone else hear him on 3aw.

To make us competitive and to play finals aint hard,
Matthews could turn it around. How far is the question.

Yeah right Jack, lets see how long it lasts, you should still have supported Terry to the end, remember this "in any weather".. I dont think I would like to be one of your mates, you would turn like a snake.
-
tell you something , after tomorrow night, we will improve out of sight starting with a win in Round 12.
Reckon we will win at least another 6-7 games for the year.
can tell you this, players are rapped its all come to an end :thumbsup

Look here mate, worked there for 2 years under him, didnt agree and moved on . I am not an behind licker and if you dont agree on something, dont stay. Terry has died on his own sword, his recruiting was crap, his game plan was worse with players having little understanding on what was expected
So you were part of the crap recruiting or were you the crap recruited?? I thought he didn't do the recruiting either but I suppose you don't believe that.

stuff me I could beat the Eagles in Melbourne so thats no bigy. Measure the caretaker on the games against the big clubs like you did Wallace.

yep, terry only beat 1 team in the final 8 last year, lets move on.,

That's because we have the softest draw in the comp in the last half of the season
Not only that but wins against crap clubs are not going to help us long term

Matt did you not hear TW last night??
If thats not evidence he was not the right fit for us, then i dont know what is.
How can a coach constantly look behind at his past club as TW has done the last week.
The biggest thing i got out of the interview was when he said
"if he is to take credit for the recruiting at Punt Road, then he should take the credit for the Buldogs recruiting also"
One gets the feeling he know his recruiting was average to say the least so he has to defend himself by drawing comparisons with his time at the Buldogs.
His time was up a long time ago my friend

Well we could do without some of those players then
-
I cant wait to finish 9th 10th or 11th again. If we get the coach I belive we should get, it wont help those players anyway.
By the way another side that plays the Kids is North which shows you can be reasonably competitive with a fair share of kids in your side.
-
That's because we have the softest draw in the comp in the last half of the season
We couldn't beat Melbourne in round 4 though.

So Long and thanks for all the Fish
