Barrett was just on the Footy Show:
* Richmond to launch into another review of their Football Department.
* Focus will be on the development side of things, assistant coaches, and, of course, recruiting.
-
This will require some form of committee
Followed by a think tank With some key buzzwords
Of which I hope stability is included numerous times
-
Do the Hawks just keep fluking all these great assistant coaches, or does Clarko develop them a fair bit?
Surely our assistants being rubbish is partly Hardwicks fault too.
-
Well it's a start but will it be external or internal? Because if it's the latter, it'll most likely just be another pointless sham. The fact that Head Coach Half-Step is not being reviewed already strongly suggests to me that it will be.....covering the arses of those who re-signed him..... :whistle
-
It smells of they have signed a failing coach for two years and now they need to covers there arse. They are now trying to blame everybody else! Its now a culture where no home truths or real accountablity exists. It's like the labor party trying to review the unions. Laughable.
The answer is simple Brendan and Peggy. Your coach is no good and he has surrounded himself with mates that dont question his ability.

Can we please have a review into why we openly state that we are a tight arsed club when it comes to payments of players.
Into why we have publicly long and embarrassing drawn out negotiations with players that actually want to play at Richmond, yet we seem to make it difficult for them to sign (Dusty, Lennon) but then wonder why we cannot land a big fish.
Simultaneously, we should also review why the same people in charge of this policy have no trouble getting contract extensions themselves.
Problem is, these same people are probably the ones who will be doing the 'review'

Agree has to be an external review to achieve anything meaningful. Concerned it is a limited review. Should be reviewing Hardwick's performance as well. Strongly suspect review to deflect criticism of the club and to give the false impression the club is doing something.

Don't have to do a review
Why ?
Club already has addressed issues with the footy department
Bit of a PR exercise this

Every club has roughly the same salary cap and so holeistically we can't be tight arsed.
The structures within the salary cap must be contentious - someone, somewhere is getting more than they deserve which squeezes out free agency at the high end which needs a review

PR exercise or not what's the point?
Seriously, I can't see the point especially if it ends being an internal review
They need to bring in a couple of outsiders to review the set up IMESHO

If this review shows different results to the first review, then we should also have a review of the first review. We should also launch a review of the second review in case that is the one that is erroneous.
Finally we should have a mega review of all the reviews performed including the review of the review of the review!

Hardwick contract extended

Don't make top 4 , they won't be renewed
Is that plain enough for you
It's called KPI ,s
From an outsider point of few , they need fresh blood , not job for mates

Do the recruiters get the boot? Is Blair going?
Is Chocco and his development hacks going too?

'There is no review', says Tiger president
Dinny Navaratnam
afl.com.au
May 6, 2016 1:53 PM
RICHMOND isn’t in the process of reviewing its football department, according to Tiger president Peggy O'Neal.
AFL.com.au's Damian Barrett first broke news of the club’s assessment of its on-field performance on Channel Nine.
"There is no review, in the sense of when Geelong announced they were reviewing everything a few years ago," O'Neal said on Friday.
"I think the coach, the head of football and Brendon (Gale, CEO) have all made clear that the way football is these days, you review everything, every week. That's continuing in the normal course.”
O'Neal preached a message of unity.
"This is the time of year we all need to stay together. There's no one reason you win or one reason you lose," she said.
The Tigers sit 1-5 and face Hawthorn on Friday night at the MCG.

No crisis talks at Tigerland
Herald-Sun
May 6, 2016
RICHMOND president Peggy O’Neal has flatly denied that the Tigers are undertaking a comprehensive review of their football department.
An unflustered O’Neal, who has remained quiet throughout the team’s struggles, spoke with media ahead of today’s AFL Women’s Industry lunch in Docklands.
She said improvement is the only focus at the club — starting against Hawthorn at the MCG tonight — and that no such review is being undertaken.
“No, there is no review in the sense of like the time Geelong announced they were reviewing everything a few years ago,” O’Neal said.
“The coach, the head of football and Brendon (Gale, club chief executive) have all made clear that the way football is these days, you review everything every week. And so that is continuing in the normal course.
“We need to show improvement. There are a number of things that factor into whether you show improvement, one of those is injuries, another is the draw. We’re just looking forward to a good next three-quarters of the year.”

O’Neal conceded the team “is playing pretty poorly” having recorded a 1-5 start to the season, but is committed to turning things around.
She also said the club remains firmly committed to coach Damien Hardwick.
“Absolutely — nothing’s changed there,” O’Neal said.
“This is the time of year that we all need to stay together. There’s one reason you win, there’s one reason you lose, but we’re all in it together and that’s exactly the way we feel.
“You’ve heard the coach and you’ve heard the CEO this week — we’re playing pretty poorly, but we’re committed to turning that around. We’re looking forward to a good game tonight.”

Don't expect casualties at Tigerland any time soon
The Tigers might be 1-6 and staring at a wasted year, but president Peggy O'Neal is remaining calm and sending a strong public message of support for coach Damien Hardwick.
"Let there be no doubt, we will continue to support and be positive with our coaches, players, football department and club as a whole," O'Neal said in her pre-match address.
"Do we give the media the head on a plate they are looking for? The answer to that is no."
All at Punt Road Oval look like they'll be given time to dig the club out of its current mess, and any decisions on coaching staff will be made "in the cool light of day".
Speaking shortly after on ABC, O'Neal guaranteed Hardwick would coach the Tigers next year. "No doubt. He already knows that, but it doesn't hurt to re-state it," she said.

Well that's a surprise. The dumb lady bringing up injuries. Does she have a clue?
That's it that's why we haven't shown improvement. Our draw too has hurt us
Her, dimwit and Hartley are a perfect match for each other.
Led by a girl play like girls. "The Richmond Way.

At least in womens footy the coach doesnt try to call the match off if there are too many last quarter injuries

Hardwick was appointed for a rebuild. Seven years later, head of footy lets us in on a little secret. They haven't started it yet because they are too scared of the fans.
Is the president corrupt, dishonest, incompetent or all three? Let the fans decide. Put your regime up for election at the end of the year Peggy and we will see if you and Hardwick are there next year.

I'm angry >:(

I'm not angry. I'm just so disappointed

Who is Peggy O'Neil?

Caro felt that it was bluff (i.e. "no review"). The Club knows there has to be changes but, at round 6, can't make them yet, and has to be seen to still be supporting those there. Dan Richardson learnt the hard way by his public singling out of recycled players and these players taking issue with his comments.
At the end of 2014, the Club thought there needed to be changes to the assistant coaches but Dimma stuck by them and the Club didn't push the issue. The Club expects changes to the assistant coaches this time around at the end of the season. Also, all recruiters bare one of the recruiting officers (I can't remember if Caro said it was Matt Clarke or Luke Williams) are out of contract at the end of the year.

If they are not performing a review, my question is, why not?

They should have made changes at the end of last season after squibbly losing to a poo North team in their 3rd final loss in a row.
They didnt make the necessary changes even though they were blatantly obvious to all and now they are all culpable for this outcome.
A couple of deckchairs shifted on this titanic wont change anything. Rebuild starts with the football department not the list.

Yep. See what improvement on the footy field looks like? Been waiting 7 years for that.
Of course, you're implying that we were never favourites to beat them in the final. Which is just rubbish in itself.
-
Don't think they've improved all that much tbh. Maybe a little especially in consistency but it seems most of the good teams from last year have dropped a level or 2... at least for now
Oh and whether we were or we weren't, we should have never been favourites

Caro on Monday night said she still reckons there will eventually be a "Geelong-style review" if it hasn't started already.

Yes,that's exactly what they should do. But they won't. Richmond's problem is that they can't distinguish between stability and inertia.

Tom Browne on Ch 7:
* Richmond won't be making any changes until the end of the season.
* Big word that the changes will involve the assistant coaches.
* Dan Richardson in charge of the review of the footy dept.

Dan is in charge.
Benny Hill stuff

We won't get a proper review because for some strange reason they actually don't believe there is a problem.
Funny that the rest of the world disagrees!

Dan is in charge.

can we bet that hackson and/or hartley will survive??
stuffin losers the lot of them.

needs to be an external review, not internal one

Any review by a guy who hoodwinked the members and then admitted as much as per my rolling signature below is NOT in a position to undertake a honest and competent review.
Expect more shortcuts and back slapping for mates.

In 4-5 years Im sure Dan will have the fallback of saying, yeah but we did it half assed bc the fans demanded short term 'success' so winning every game we could was vital.

What are Dan's qualifications for conducting the review?
Only Richmond would hire a ex player manager to head the football department of a afl club, still laughable to this day how he got the job.
-
when negotiating contracts is the main part of your job that makes sense.
Important football based decisions are made by those paid to do that, recruiters, list mangers, coaches etc., he just pulls it all together and makes what they decide happen.

He's got very good mates at the RFC.

LMAOOOO @ Trying to look up ones own hole.

Id be interested in peoples thoughts as to how the next 2-5 years pan out following the review. Consider this:-
Most likely coach will keep his job, recruiters may or may not, etc etc. Basically its a clean out without cleaning out those with the power at the club.
Irrespective of who comes in, the directive will be more of the same. No rebuild, just topping up including possibly more moneyballers.
We probably wont land a big fish. Even if we do, it wont make a difference (see collingwood).
We find ourselves middling on the ladder.
Deledio retires. Cotchin, Rance, Riewoldt and Edwards hit 30.
What would it take for the club to properly rebuild and avoid this status quo? Do we need an atrocious year in 2017 to force their hand?
Should we hope for an attrocious year?
-
I think our fortunes could change quite quickly IF we are able to attract good quality free agents. We also needs to trade aggressively and cleverly.
We still have a core of good quality players we can build a side around.
Our problem will be getting these guys to come over as we seem to be on the nose so to speak.
Without quality FAs I can't see us challenging for a long long time. It will make no difference how atrocious we are IMHO. Look at sides like Sydney, Geelong and Hawthorn. They have not been atrocious for a long time and yet they are constantly challenging.
The more and more I think about it, the less and less important it is to bottom out.

More so, when you start by saying the senior coach is safe wtf
