From today's Age
Out-of-contract Bulldog Jordan McMahon could be reunited with former coach Terry Wallace, with Richmond expressing keen interest in him, while Port Adelaide also is believed to be eager to encourage the former South Australian home.
The Dogs are likely to seek a second-round draft pick for McMahon, while the Tigers would leverage their first pick in the pre-season draft in any negotiation.

Port Adelaide could snare McMahon
09 October 2007 Herald Sun
Mark Stevens
PORT Adelaide has emerged as a potential new home for Western Bulldogs defender Jordan McMahon.
It is understood the Power yesterday signalled their interest in McMahon, who is out of contract and weighing up his future while overseas.
McMahon, originally from South Australia, had a disappointing season after a shining start.
The Dogs would be happy to retain McMahon, but there is also speculation he could end up at a rival Victorian club.

my grandma has come back from th edead and is considering playing afl, and guess what the tigers and miller are interested and will speak to her manager
bloody hell, we are after every single player apparantly lol
-
Us and Collingwood
-
*sigh*
I know it's all speculation at this stage but please not him either.
-
P Bowden is a better footballer that McMahon....he is a better kick under pressure, and he still can't get a game at Richmond, so why oh why would you be interested in McMahon?
-
ATM this is all the offseason krap flying about, interesting to read but water off a ducks back so to say.
Will wait and see what happens, but if what is floating around pans out Wallace and Miller will be well on their way to having their coffins finished come mid 2008.
-
If you have the body of a greyhound you'll get picked up by us :-\.
We better hope this is all a bluff to shake the player tree to get other players we actually want to fall out uncontracted otherwise this trade/draft period will be a total disaster. Of course those who make these ridiculous decisions move on to something else while the Club is left to deal with the consequences :help.
-

Was saying to a bullies supporter the other day wallace is seeminglee leading us in their direction.
Not a total disaster by any means but needs to be balanced out with some big bodies otherwise :banghead see what happened to them this year :P
-
We will soon be called the Richmond Muppets soon.
They all have long dangly arms that have no muscle or size.
Id rather see Conners play the role McMahon would if he came over.
Not needed.

i think he will be in SA next year.

WTF, McMahon is a good footballer who had a poo season like many other doggy players

I agree he's not a bad footballer bluey but he's not the type of player we badly need when we're short of onballers, KPPs and ruckmen.

no

Us, Port and Melbourne are interested in McMahon. Port may miss out as McMahon is apparently not so interested in returning to Adelaide.

Richmond, the Power and the Western Bulldogs could be involved in a three-club trade that results in Jordan McMahon going from the Dogs to the Tigers, Damon White leaving Port Adelaide for the Bulldogs and Schulz crossing to Port.
Miller said Richmond would look at trading Schulz for reasonable compensation.

Id rather that the club look at what Port have to offer for schulz before we do a 3 way trade ... i dont rate mcmahon- not what we need.

Agree Ramps and we are also giving away a KPP for a small.
Not sure what Port would offer that they'd be happy to let go. Victorian Robert Gray had some good cameos in his debut year. I didn't mind the look of their rookie Gavin Grose in the U18s who is a young key defender (192cm, 89kg). We could also ask for a pick but would only get pick 33 at best off Port.
Damon White has done as much as Schulz has and is 2 years older. Not sure why the Dogs wouldn't just do a straight trade with us for McMahon unless picks are involved as well in this 3-way trade.

exactly what l been ranting about recently Richmond draft skinny under developed footballers who take years to progress & lose interest cause there not getting anywhere
skinny kids in floppy jumpers ;D
-
Ch 9 saying McMahon may swap with Port's Damon White. McMahon having a medical with Port. So we may not get McMahon anyway.
The Doggies say McMahon is still a wanted player but know Port and Richmond are interested.
-
Pick 16 to Richmond Schulz to Port is my info.
Great win for us and good luck to Jay at Port.
He'll be a good player at Port but hes not gonna
be a good player at Richmond.

McMahon is crap footballer, you can only pray he doesnt come to punt road , if he does , it will be another spoon on the way.
We want to get rid of duds and replace them with DUDS!
-
Id just try for a ruckman at this stage and forget the rest. Im happy with our picks although I be happier if we could snare another pick.

There are so many contradictory reports of trades tonight. Others have got McMahon off to Port and he had a medical tonight. Let's hope 3aw were talking crap like they did last night saying we a strong chance of getting Judd after offering picks 2 & 18 ::).

The Dogs want pick 18 from the Tigers or pick 16 from Port for McMahon, not White, so that they can remain in the second round of the draft.

McMahon will fly to Adelaide today to discuss his future with Port Adelaide officials. Power football manager Peter Rohde coached McMahon at the Dogs and the player has family in Adelaide. It is believed the Power threw up Damon White as a direct swap for McMahon, but the Dogs flatly refused the offer.
If McMahon goes, the Dogs are expecting quality compensation.
Richmond may have to throw up pick No. 18 or No. 19 to get McMahon to Punt Rd.

They said "lucrative". That is not proof that your figure is "true". People should not take what you say as gospel, because your credibility is severely damaged following your many comments about Wallace walking and Sheedy definitely coaching somewhere next year.

If the Dogs want to remain in the 2nd round of the draft, they can have our pick 30 that we will get off WCE, not 18.
I would make McMahon's contract conditional on losing his pathetic moustache.

McMahon isn't as bad as people make out. Last season he had 30 & 22 possies against the premiers and had double figure possies
in every game except for one. I'm not saying that posessions are the only indicator to a players performance but at least he gets his hands
on the pill and his delivery is actually pretty sound. Well a lot better than some of our existing players. Sure he's not a muscle man but he sweeps the backline well and is capable of moving forward to kick goals if need be.

LOL at jack and his football knowledge
Shultz according to jack is the worst player in the afl, but chocco wants him, I reckon chocco knows a bit more about football then you do mate ::)
Mcmahon is one of the best kicks in the afl, we would be lucky to get him'
cant please some fans, complain about a lack of skill, yet still complain when we try and recruit quick skillful players

However three teams want him - Bullies, Port and us - so he has value.

It didn't help that the doggies had no height up forward to kick to. Opposition sides worked them out by clogging the space in front of Brad Johnson and it left the doggies playing ring-a-rosy handball and short-chipping by foot in the midfield until they turned it over.

McMahon picks Tigers over Port
Stephen Rielly | October 12, 2007
RICHMOND last night put Jordan McMahon into a yellow and black jumper, with the Western Bulldog defender choosing the Tigers over Port Adelaide for a three-year deal worth almost $1 million.
McMahon, 24, informed the Tigers of his decision in the early evening after earlier visiting Port in his home state.
His decision will give the Dogs Richmond's priority pick, selection 18

Tigers do deal for McMahon
12 October 2007 Herald Sun
Mark Stevens
JORDAN McMahon will be re-united with his former coach Terry Wallace after Richmond last night snared the dashing Western Bulldogs defender.
McMahon visited Port Adelaide for talks yesterday, but later decided to cross to Punt Rd on a lucrative three-year deal.
The Dogs will receive pick 19 from the Tigers in return, but minor shuffling of draft places could also be involved today.
McMahon, a ball-carrier with a deadly left foot, will add polish to a Richmond team too often sloppy by foot.
Richmond director of football Greg Miller said McMahon, along with another certain newcomer, West Coast's Mitch Morton, would add to the Tigers' skill level.
"I think with Mitch Morton and Jordan McMahon we've added great kicking ability," he said.
"We see that as an absolutely vital part of the game. I think Richo (Matthew Richardson) and Browny (Nathan Brown) would be pretty pleased with those signings."
McMahon started his career under Wallace at the Bulldogs after being selected at No. 10 in the 2000 draft.

please tell me this is a joke. why offer 18 or 19 for morton, why cant we play hardball and offer 35. if they dont take it PSD, and mcmahon, this rubbish he can hit a target is crap. you cant run the ball out of the back line if you have no one to kick it to. one player isnt going to change the way we transfer the ball out the backline. bent over again tiges.

yeah.Patty Bowdown is great.
-
The McMahon trade seems to me like its a 100% Wallace trade. Danny Meyer was similar in his draft year, Plough was commentating those games and everyone who saw the coverage knew we were taking Meyer. We missed out on Wood. Anyway we have to support the players who come, but a coach ultimately is responsible if hes picking players and theyre not working out.
-
Yup , this is just a repeat of his bulldogs recruiting..
If we had any guts his say in recruiting would be drastically reduced.
-
As someone on BF said the bright side of McMahon coming to Richmond is no more of those Bulldog Peter Jackson ads ;D
-
I assume Howat will be shown the door since we have yet another one of him, just a grade up.

Jordy of SEN:
* Pretty excited. A bit of a change up for him.
* Played with Glenelg so knows the Tigers' theme song. It's black and yellow btw Jordy not Black and Gold :wallywink.
* Bulldogs are a great club and he had a great 7 years but it was time for a change. So happy to be at Richmond.
* Richmond approached Jordy and showed how exciting things could be in the future and it went from there.
* What he brings to Richmond - he said without being egotistical he'll add a bit excitement, skill and run to the backline. A bit of experience and leadership too to such a young promising list.
* His manager told him to come back early from holidays in Thailand and signed. It wasn't really a shock as he asked for a change.
* Preseason starts in 2 weeks time. About to get a call from our fitness staff as to when it does start.

Jordan a happy Tiger
3:35 PM Fri 12 October, 2007
Tony Greenberg
for richmondfc.com.au
Jordan McMahon was a teenager the last time he played under coach Terry Wallace, back at the Western Bulldogs in 2002.
Five years on, he renews the relationship with Wallace – this time at Richmond and with 114 AFL games under his belt.
“Terry was my original coach and I had a very good relationship with him. Of course, it will be a totally different relationship now as a 24-year-old and with a lot more experience in the game,” McMahon said.
“I’m very excited about the move and really believe the change will do me good.
“Richmond, I believe, is one of the four powerhouse Victorian clubs of the competition. There’s a lot of young talent at the Club and that’s one of the reasons I was so keen to get here – to take on a bit of a leadership role and help with their development.
"The Tigers are not far away from hitting their straps and playing some really good football and I’m very much looking forward to being part of it all.”
Richmond regards McMahon as the archetypal modern-day league player and, as such, is a significant inclusion to the senior list.
“What AFL football’s all about now is run and carry, with good disposal. And, there’s no doubt that Jordan has excellent kicking ability,” said the Tigers’ Director of Football Greg Miller.
“By adding him and Mitch (Morton) to our side, we’re certainly improving the quality of disposal.
“Not only can Jordan play a similar valuable running role to the one Lindsay Gilbee plays in the backline at the Bulldogs, but he’s also able to play up forward.
“He’s a class player and we fought against Port Adelaide for his services and were rapt to get him.”

Welcome to Punt Road Jordan. :thumbsup
Unlike others here I'm thrilled to have him at Richmond. :clapping
He will improve our run out of the backline no end and cut out the Kane Johnson/Andrew Raines "Half Back Square Dance". :nopity
In the many games I've seen him play he is a very committed footballer with excellent foot skills.
Also you don't play 114 games in a reasonably solid team like the Bulldogs if you are crap.
I reckon he tanked the second half of last season just so he could get away from Rodney "Mr Happy" Eade! I remember a few good swans were about to the bolt before he was replaced by Roos. :outtahere
-
Apparently had some issues on the homefront to deal with this year according to the Doggies BF forum.
-
good luck to the guy and hope he does well, personally i would have preferred to hang onto the pick.

He's never tried to re-invent Alvey. That was Sheeds.....and he failed.

where is that good old fair go aussie spirit.
he isnt even down yet and many are already kickintg him in th eguts.

we have tivendale and krak and jay and hyde and ....etc in our team to bag, not the new boys who havent even played a game yet
krak, jay, tivendale and hyde. those 4 names are one of many other reasons why we are the laughing stock of the AFL
-
i agree with X
-
The plan must be to push guys like Kingy, Rainesy and Connors into the midfield next year.
-
i agree with X
bloody hell ())(, u cant agree with me, this is not right :o, i better mark this day down!
:lol
-
I hope that both Jordy and Mitch do well.
I was fuming this morning when i read we traded both 18 & 19 for these players.
I am happy that we have retained 18 but would have liked to get a pick in the 20's atleast and think we should have offloaded Shultz for the high 20 pick that Port offered.
Hopefully we can entice a decent player in the pre-season draft.

adcock in the PSD and couldn't care less we traded those picks away :thumbsup

will adcock be in the psd, do u know that 4 sure?
he is out of contract i believe and yet to sign and allegedly wants to come back to victoria. therefore PSD is not out of the question, but reckon the lions will sign him up. They know he is a talented kid and will hell bent on keeping him.
We just have to hope that miller gets off his arse and entices Adcock down or that lions up his pay packet which forces brennan into the PSD

well in that case dont send miller to speak to him, so far this trade week, he was unable to bring anyone across to us.
dont be fooled about mitch and jordy, miller had nothing to do with that.
imo, jordy came cos he wanted to play under wallace.
mitch came because he knows we will pick up cale(i bet cale was told weeks ago we would get him, regardless what waffle is said to the media and fans)
every player who was out of contract that miller spoke to re-signed at their existing clubs, its either thay all hate rfc or millers bs is as clear as day now and he couldnt even give away free maccas to the etheopians, let alone sell it to them!
-
give him a break jack, he hasnt played a game 4 us yet1
and btw, who cares if he is light on, his average tackle count per game is far better than th erfc average per player, so i guess he is more accountable than 95% of out blokes
lets not crucify any new players and welcome them, u never know they may just surprise you.
where is that good old fair go aussie spirit.
he isnt even down yet and many are already kickintg him in th eguts.
we have tivendale and krak and jay and hyde and ....etc in our team to bag, not the new boys who havent even played a game yet
Hey, seen enough of him at the dogs.
No thanks. $1,000,000 for 3 years ::)
-
i am not happy about this trade ...
soft ... weak ... not hard ... = all the same problem ...
richmond don't need players like this ...
once again i hope i am wrong !!!
-
it aint 1 mill over 3 years. :-X
-
I am happy that we have retained 18 but would have liked to get a pick in the 20's atleast and think we should have offloaded Shultz for the high 20 pick that Port offered.
I think either we were hoping pick 22 would go from the Dogs to Adelaide to Port to us or Port would swap pick 16 with our 18 on top of pick 28.

Its more! :'(

McMahon excited by Punt Rd move
richmondfc.com.au
12:53 PM Mon 15 October, 2007
By Jason Phelan
RICHMOND recruit Jordan McMahon has spoken of his excitement at the fresh slate provided by his move to Punt Road.
The Tigers exchanged pick 19 overall in November’s NAB AFL National Draft for the dashing half-back flanker after the 24-year-old asked the Bulldogs to trade him following a season when he admits to being troubled by off-field issues.
“I’m very, very happy with the move. I was excited basically when I decided to make the move,” McMahon said at his new club on Monday.
“I had a lot of choices and a lot of decisions to make and it was a gut feeling when it came down to Richmond. I was really excited about the move and I’m really pumped about it actually; we’ve got a good future.
“To be honest with you, I think now is the time where I’m either going to play my best football or I’m not and to be honest with you I think a fresh start is where it’s going to happen.”
The South Australian received interest from both Adelaide clubs, with Port Adelaide the keener of the two to secure his services, before deciding to stay in Melbourne and sign a three-year deal with Richmond.
McMahon agreed the lure of going back home to Adelaide had been strong, but cited a strong off-field support structure at Punt Road as a key factor in his decision-making process.
“I had some issues off-field with family and so forth, and I’m not sure it was handled that well back down at the previous club,” he said.
“I spoke to Richmond about what they could do with things and they had the appropriate measures for it as well and they gave me some good options. I took it from there and I thought it was probably appropriate that I do come across.
“I had some issues off field as well and it came to a point where I had a decision to make: is it best to make a fresh start and get into a new environment?
“I think personally for me at that time, it was just time to have a look around and see what was available. Richmond really put a great offer forward. I think it’s a really young list and a really exciting list. I think there’s a lot of improvement within them as well and I think there’s a big future with them.”
McMahon was dropped from the Dogs’ side for round 21, but while he didn’t entirely agree with the move, he maintained it did not have any bearing on his decision to seek a new football home.
“I think you’d have to ask Rocket [Rodney Eade] that,” he replied when quizzed on his omission from the team that lost heavily to Hawthorn. “He dropped me for a reason. Obviously my form wasn’t great at the time and that’s understandable.
“I got brought back in for the last game and played it out, but my mind wasn’t made up at all by then. When the season finished I had to sit down and assess everything.”
McMahon is yet to meet any of his new teammates, but said he was looking forward to taking the field with them under the guidance of Terry Wallace, who oversaw the first two years of his career at Whitten Oval.
“It’s an exciting prospect actually,” he said of playing in front of the Tigers’ strong supporter base.
“The first time I played in front of 80,000 people was the first final I played for the Western Bulldogs.
“[But] I heard that Richmond had the third-highest attendances during the season out of any club in the AFL and, considering the amount of games they won, that’s not a bad effort.”

Tigers the family club for McMahon
16 October 2007 Herald Sun
Mark Stevens
JORDAN McMahon has fired a parting shot at the Western Bulldogs, declaring Richmond is better equipped to provide off-field support for players.
McMahon, traded to the Tigers for draft pick No. 19 last week, battled family issues this season after his partner and their young daughter returned to Adelaide.
And McMahon yesterday indicated the Dogs could have done more to help.
"I had some personal issues off-field with family. I'm not sure it was handled that well back down at the previous club," McMahon said.
McMahon said the Tigers' beefed-up welfare and development program was a key factor in his decision to move to Punt Rd.
"There was definitely support (at the Bulldogs). The issue for me was is there something better for me that will help my football?" McMahon said.
"I spoke to Richmond about what they could do and they had appropriate measures.
"They've got in place a really good environment where they've got a lot of support."
Bulldogs coach Rodney Eade was yesterday surprised by McMahon's comments.
"We are comfortable with the support systems we have in place and we are comfortable with the level of support we provided Jordan," Eade said.
"We wish him the best and we'll move on."
McMahon has earned a significant pay rise by crossing to Richmond. It is understood he will earn slightly more than $1 million over three years.
McMahon split with girlfriend, Adelaide model Rebecca McLure, during the season. She returned home with their one-year-old daughter Lila. The 24-year-old's form dropped away and he was banished to VFL affiliate club Werribee as the Dogs' tilt at the finals faded.
"He (Eade) dropped me for a reason. Obviously my form wasn't great at that time. That's understandable," McMahon said.
"I got brought back for the last game and played it out."
McMahon said being dropped to the VFL was when he decided it was best to move on.
"When the season finished I assessed everything," he said.
"I had a lot of choices to make. It was a gut feeling when it came down to Richmond. I'm really pumped about it, actually. There's a good future."
McMahon, recruited from Glenelg, met Port Adelaide officials, but decided against a move home.
After 114 games, McMahon is confident he is ready to play his best football under Terry Wallace, his coach for his first two years at Whitten Oval.
"He's got an attacking style of football he wants to play and I reckon I can fit pretty well into that," McMahon said.
Richmond football director Greg Miller said McMahon would improve the Tigers' skill level. "His disposal is one of the better in the AFL," he said.
But while McMahon's kicking can be deadly when on song, Champion Data stats reveal he can also misfire.
He recorded a kicking efficiency rate of 75.4 per cent last season. Champion Data rates that as below average for a defender.
But what McMahon will definitely provide is rebound. The dashing defender was No. 1 at the Dogs for running bounces last year.

Well we'd better just belt them first. I don't know about anyone else but I'm just about sick of being the team others can give a belting too at will. As far as I'm concerned it's time for us to be able to say what we like and not worry about other teams taking offence and walloping us. Let them take offence and then let them lose. Time to drop the loser attitude.
-
Given we already have Wallace, Browny, Paddy and Gordon Casey, one more Bulldog crossing over to Punt Rd won't really make a difference as far as their fans hating us. For two clubs that supposedly hate each other since 2001, we've had a pretty good relationship at the trade table and in each other's coaching boxes. Apart from Rodney Eade, ex-Tigers Cambo and Leon are the only ones who haven't left Whitten Oval over the past few weeks.

New Tigers in focus: Jordan McMahon
2:16 PM Mon 10 December, 2007
By Ben Broad
for richmondfc.com.au
Click here (http://javascript:void window.open('http://bigpondvideo.com/afl/42775')) to see how Jordan McMahon has viewed his first few weeks at Punt Rd. Keep an eye out on richmondfc.com.au for more video insights into how fellow recruit Mitch Morton, as well as new draftees Trent Cotchin, Alex Rance and Dean Put, have fitted in at Tigerland.
IF JORDAN McMahon didn't remember Terry Wallace's ways at the Western Bulldogs, it didn't take long for his former coach's methods to come flooding back after arriving at Punt Road.
McMahon, one of the Tigers' key signings during the off-season, is enjoying a solid pre-season in his new colours.
He is eager to make a new start across town after admitting he became a little stale in seven years at the kennel.
However he had to stay as fresh as possible for one of the Tigers' early off-season sessions, one of which McMahon recalled from his earlier days under Wallace.
"There was a session years ago [when at the Bulldogs] when there was a game called 'The Rings'," McMahon said.
"I hadn't done them for a long time and three or four sessions into training with Richmond the rings came back out…they're not a pleasant exercise or drill to do during football."
Now into his eighth summer at AFL level, the 24-year-old considers himself seasoned enough to handle anything fitness staff throws in his direction.
Although he admitted The Rings was not among his favourite drills.
"It's just two rings set up at either end and it's just back and forth, back and forth," McMahon explained.
"There's two teams going from one end to the other with one ball, trying to get it through the ring and it's just continuous.
"Just non-stop and it's actually really gruelling, very taxing."
McMahon is excited by the youth at the Tigers, and said he was surprised to find he was among a group of older players when training resumed.
But he doesn't believe having such a young list is a negative.
"That's the really good thing about them, they're young and they're exciting and I think that makes pre-season a lot more exciting…they're pretty happy to be here," he said.
While the Tigers are setting a cracking pace on the training track, McMahon says a few, in particular, look destined for big things in 2008.
"Nathan Foley can run; he's good at just consistently running, repeating efforts," McMahon said.
"And I reckon Brett Deledio [is flying]. 'Lids' is a pretty solid player at the moment. He's pretty powerful, pretty strong, he's built up a lot and he's quick too, so I think he's a bit of a package at the moment and he could show a lot this year, I reckon."
All things going well, McMahon expects a much-improved Richmond outfit next season.
After a disappointing 2007, the Tigers faithful hope to be singing the famous club song on a more regular basis next year.
And McMahon admits he can't wait to sing the 'Yellow and Black'.
"To be honest with you, there were two things about moving to Richmond [that particularly appealed]," he said.
"My mate said, 'You know it's really great that you've moved because it's good colours and a good club song'.
"That's the one thing nearly every person has said to me: 'You've finally got a team with a good theme song'.
"I played for a Tigers team when I was younger with the same song and I appreciate it. It's a good song."

Good on you Jordy. Sounds like a nice guy and sounds excited to be with us. I know there has been a bit of discussion about whether we should have used pick 19 on him but I am sure we will all support him 100% in 2008. After all it was not his decision to use the pick.
Good to hear that Lids is impressing. Sounds exciting.
-
u know ive bagged this bloke but one thing that stands out for me is he actually seems happy to play for the tigers. he has a heap of enthusiasm which is really good to see.
-
Jordy of SEN:
* Richmond approached Jordy and showed how exciting things could be in the future and it went from there.
:lol
I bet the future didn't show him playing Coburg reserves.

I deleted my post and created a new thread ... my apologies. Just shows how stuffed we are as a club IMHO.

If we got rid of Schultz when we should have for pick 16.
We could have drafted Matthew Lobbe the 200cm Ruckman.
If we didn't draft Jordan McMahon we would have Callan Ward.
*shakes head*
-
And if we hadn't made so many mistakes since 1975 we would have won a lot more premierships.
And if we didn't have the best supporter base in the league we would not be in existence.
And if we don't keep supporting and believing then we might go that way anyway.
-
Smoke,
I'm sick of the "If's" and "Buts" aswell.
It's not like we have heaps to talk about at the present.
-
my grandma has come back from th edead and is considering playing afl, and guess what the tigers and miller are interested and will speak to her manager
bloody hell, we are after every single player apparantly lol

Welcome to Punt Road Jordan. :thumbsup
Unlike others here I'm thrilled to have him at Richmond. :clapping
He will improve our run out of the backline no end and cut out the Kane Johnson/Andrew Raines "Half Back Square Dance". :nopity
In the many games I've seen him play he is a very committed footballer with excellent foot skills.
Also you don't play 114 games in a reasonably solid team like the Bulldogs if you are crap.
I reckon he tanked the second half of last season just so he could get away from Rodney "Mr Happy" Eade! I remember a few good swans were about to the bolt before he was replaced by Roos. :outtahere
mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm
-
If we are doing this with hindsight I'll be to bring up my post from after the trade. ;D
ARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRGH!
PICK 19! Are you effing kidding me!? :banghead
What a nightmare. The kids a squib.
might as well have kept Fizzer Fiora. :-\
Really not happy atm.
The SAINTS got the Schneiderman with pick 26 and imho . . .
SCHNEIDER>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>McMahon.
I will get over this and welcome him as a tiger but eff me itsa shocker of a trade. :(
I thought I would get over it anyway but even now it poos me to tears.
-
3rd year & the DUD has given nothing
another wasted pick 19 traded for a Bozo who was nothing but a 2nd tier VFL player at best when drafted :rollin
-
i think this is all too funny.
I bagged him when he first come here.
He only played 7 games at the dogs the year before he came to us.
most of the nuffers on here were saying give him a go :banghead
Its a disgrace and it doesnt surprise me to see us on the bottom.
-
LOL at jack and his football knowledge
Shultz according to jack is the worst player in the afl, but chocco wants him, I reckon chocco knows a bit more about football then you do mate ::)
Mcmahon is one of the best kicks in the afl, we would be lucky to get him'
cant please some fans, complain about a lack of skill, yet still complain when we try and recruit quick skillful players
oh well thankfully rfc make their own decisions are not swayed by disgruntled ex employees with not so "hidden" agendas
:sleep
Well well well, Blaisee, you know your football ::) ::) ::)
-
McMahon is crap footballer, you can only pray he doesnt come to punt road , if he does , it will be another spoon on the way.
We want to get rid of duds and replace them with DUDS!
This poster was on the money :thumbsup
-
Reported 1m for 3 years.
We are ratpooh if this is true.
We are being run by idiots if this is the case
Looks like its true,as per todays Herald Sun. 1m for 3 years ::)
They said "lucrative". That is not proof that your figure is "true". People should not take what you say as gospel, because your credibility is severely damaged following your many comments about Wallace walking and Sheedy definitely coaching somewhere next year.
Hey Gordon, was on the ball again in my friend :thumbsup.
Bit wrong about the Sheedy date though, sorry about that

Hey Mate.
Didnt say Schultz was the worst player going around, just said he couldnt play.
The worst 2 are JON and Meyer, they are terrible.
Mate if you cant get a game with the bottom team, what hope do you have, get real
mmmmmmmmmmm Passionfruit= Jackstar ;)

i will live and learn

Hold tight all, he will be gone at seasons end never to return.

Hold tight all, he will be gone at seasons end never to return.
Mate, shouldnt of been there in the first place.
Mail out of the dogs is that they couldnt beleive that we were so desperate for him.
He also had personal issues with Wallace , which make it more unbelieveable he ended up at Punt Rd :banghead :banghead :banghead :banghead :banghead
$350,000 a year :banghead
That is why we are where we are, ON THE BOTTOM !

Most nuffers wanted him huh? Have you actually re-read this thread? Everyone except for maybe 2 or 3 didn't want him.
I know I certainly didn't but wasn't posting on OER at the time, plenty of my posts on other forums saying I didn't though

If not for a puss article from Mike Sheehan this topic would have remained dead and buried.
Yet another swing at a club sworn to falter.

That would be brilliant, we'd get a draft pick for him out of the AFL's formula
Any way we can arrange to have him with the Richmond B&F?

I will give Gold Coast our 3rd rounder to simply take him off our hands

No need to do that!
He's out of contract.

It's just a gutwrenching decision. McMahon or King to GC.
McMahon just to free up more in the salary cap. :thumbsup
-
With our recent form with Jordans bags already packed I think now he's bags have been shipped and landed a long way away.
Will not play another game with the RFC. Thus should not be playing Coburg Seniors. Play a Contin instead.

Jordan who. he can go join fat arse Roberts up north for all i care.
so many positives to discuss tonight and he aint one of them.
this non tackling garbage of a footballer does not belong at our football club. GC can take him for pick 250.

Another rip snorter thread this one. I suggest people read it from the beginning and we can all get some laughs. Of course people like me are just pot shot from the cheap seat type supporters. Pity that those of us who arent apologists can see the truth but its the same old songs from the same old supporters who come in here year after year defending the indefensible. :lol ;D

I have made lots of early calls INCLUDING annual player gradings which many agreed with and some others didnt. I also clearly remember before the trade for McMahon that I called for the board to VETO the trade.
People who support everything the club does jumped up and down. Anyway, I have made lots of early calls, many of them correct, some incorrect but I have made them. Some of you just dont like the truth and that is that the club hasnt performed for 3 decades. Thats the facts. Thats the sad reality.

eff me ramps, no one is denying the club has been crap for 30 years.

According to you and some others who disagree with my opinion. I have simply said that I feel Richmond supporters deserve better and that I will not just subscribe to the view that I should support everything the club does. That is all.

I completely understand where the club is at ATM probally more so than you! Surly for the first time in 30 years you are seeing the club move forward all be it slowly? We have cut our list to the bone the last 2 seasons and are doing what we can to replenish our stocks with kids but this is the problem we are just kids!! It is fact we have a younger side than the gold coast and we have not been given a single concession or hand out by the AFL.
We are behind the 8 ball big time but magic aint going to happen overnight....We are moving forward, dragging up the past at every corner isn't going to help us!
If your happy to dwell on the past then good for you but if I was you I would start seeking help now because the sad truth is we have a few seasons to go yet!!

so the best you can do is pull out a post from 4 years ago about me saying mcmahon was a great kick, well, guess what he was. I take it as a real compliment that you are re-reading my posts from FOUR years ago, unfortunately for you I have to admit I am not going to waste my time going through your old posts because the truth is, you have never ever said anything
meaningful
enlightening
or relevant
The Mcmahaon trade was a bust, we got screwed, get over it, it was 4 years ago, alot of things have changed since then, if you can't see that your either

LOL at jack and his football knowledge
Shultz according to jack is the worst player in the afl, but chocco wants him, I reckon chocco knows a bit more about football then you do mate ::)
Mcmahon is one of the best kicks in the afl, we would be lucky to get him'
cant please some fans, complain about a lack of skill, yet still complain when we try and recruit quick skillful players
oh well thankfully rfc make their own decisions are not swayed by disgruntled ex employees with not so "hidden" agendas
:sleep
Another rip snorter thread this one. I suggest people read it from the beginning and we can all get some laughs. Of course people like me are just pot shot from the cheap seat type supporters. Pity that those of us who arent apologists can see the truth but its the same old songs from the same old supporters who come in here year after year defending the indefensible. :lol ;D
let it go Ramps. Same old people who cant handle a blunt assessment of our footy club.
Truth hurts and yes the same people wouldve defended Mcmahon to the very end
.eff me ramps, no one is denying the club has been crap for 30 years.
let it go, your only digging deeper
According to you and some others who disagree with my opinion. I have simply said that I feel Richmond supporters deserve better and that I will not just subscribe to the view that I should support everything the club does. That is all.
Yet you wont say what that better is? :huh
I know you werent asking me AL but IMO better wouldve been and i stress the draft period is not done yet, but better wouldve been to throw up Foley and a compo pick to get another potential A grade.
The club has moved forward, albeit slowly. Evidence of this is the recruit of Gale, Houli for free and this Morris kid, although time will tell how good he is.
I have always maintained i will wait till the end of the this month until i see who they get rid of but i find it very strange how Jackson and Edwards have not been thrown up. Maybe they have who knows but if we are seriously to move forward it must be without spuds like these guys and more of the Rance, Houli type.

Considering Ramps won't answer this question maybe you can, Witch potential A grader should we be chasing with Foley and our priority pick?? Who is on the market that you think we should get??

JOM but thats an easy choice because everyone is after him. Truth is i know what you know but it would be good if we could be hungry and just show a bit of balls. Getting Maric in the PSd is an example i would like to see. Tell Crows to get stuffed and get Maric for free
My point is that Foley, has his flaws but many clubs see him as a B grader. Adding to that our comp and we could snare a very good player. That being said a compo pick next year could also land us a very good player next year also.
As i said i will always wait until 31 Oct to see who we select and more importantly who we hold onto.
Jackson and Edwards should be offered up. Players like this, particulary the former, do nothing to improve our clubs on field success. 5 years in the system and still we live in hope. Ive had enough of hope we need to continue the cull of rubbish.
ive come to the realization that our players are that bad no club is interested in them. We have a lot of work to do
-
I agree with everything you'v said but the problem is the whole GWS thing :banghead
Every club has made sure there required players have secure contracts for this season to prevent being raped by GWS!! This makes it very hard for us or any club to trade for A grade players because A..The player would really want to come to us in the first place and B...The club there from can and will demand Overs for the player because the still contracted.
It's a real catch 22........ Unfortunately I don't think this season is the season to land a big fish no matter what we offer up ::) ::)
I agree with the Maric thing, we need to hold firm with these pricks, anything more than our 3rd rounder will be a disgrace >:( Surely there is some other hack running around in another league we can get to fill the gap if Maric falls through??

McMahon is one of the best kicks in the AFL and we would be lucky to get him. Mr Blaisee with another pearl of wisdom.
Thanks for the laughs :lol
so the best you can do is pull out a post from 4 years ago about me saying mcmahon was a great kick, well, guess what he was. I take it as a real compliment that you are re-reading my posts from FOUR years ago, unfortunately for you I have to admit I am not going to waste my time going through your old posts because the truth is, you have never ever said anything
meaningful
enlightening
or relevant
The Mcmahaon trade was a bust, we got screwed, get over it, it was 4 years ago, alot of things have changed since then, if you can't see that your either
a) not looking hard enough
b) just incapable of understanding the truth due to a inbuilt bias
c) not smart enough to figure it out
You and jack should run away together and live happily ever after in your deluded state.
It took me all of 20 seconds last night to find these posts. If I wanted I could have put up scores more but I didnt because I didnt want to ruin the forum.
So I will tell you why I did it. I did it because every year you and I have this same debate. Every year you tell me the same thing, every year its the same old song. Your just someone who cant handle the truth. The administration and those who have worked in Richmonds recruiting and football department have failed the supporters. Every year you all want us to pay out for memberships, for tiger fighting funds, for jack dyer foundations and the rest. And in the end - all we ever get as supporters is complete poo. Thats the truth!
I didnt like bringing up these old posts, but you cant keep rolling out the same old poo year in year out. Just come out and say - Yes we failed. We are sorry. We will do better. Will provide hope to the supporters. We will recruit better players. We will recruit bigger name players. But alas this year is the same.
If you think that everyone should just go along with everything your mistaken. Richmond is a famous and storied football club, we are not Amway.
-
What players we attract during trade week is not a key measure by which I assess our club.
By your standards Brisbane of the last 2 years must be an amazing club because they brought in Fevola, Maguire, Raines and Staker.
-
The reality is no clubs pull in the big names in trade week.

You have to admit though your posts in this thread and the other one in the New Dawn thread they were absolute rip snorters lol. Anyway - for once, try and do the right thing and just admit where we are at as a club and stop defending the indefensible.

You dont have to go back that far to be honest to see A graders like Judd transferring from West Coast to Carlton. Carlton were a rabble. Judd has saved that club from being in the mire, which is were we have been for 3 decades. Josh Kennedy went the other way. Thats just one of recent note. This year, Mitch Clark is someone who is a big name he will get transferred but according to our footy department he cost to much. Trade week hasnt ended yet so we will see how it all ends up on Monday.

Mate every Richmond administration over the last 3 decades has promised to do something about it. This one is breaking there balls to bring Ivan Maric to Punt Road :lol
-
Clarke is no where near the Judd mould :lol If we had made a play for Judd we would have had to give up Pick 2 (Cotchin) pick 18 (Rance) and most likely Jack Lid's! Judd has been great for Carlton but he has had support around him IMO getting Judd would have set us back another 10 years.
So what your saying is if we don't get Clarke this trade period then we have failed??

I was asked to provide the names of big name players who have transferred. I did that. Clarke would be a good get IMHO but alas according to our footy department he costs too much lol. A pass mark for me would be:
Tom Gillies from Geelong
Tom Nicholls from Brisbane
Luke Brown from Norwood as a Pre listed Player
A successful trade period that gives real hope for the future means
a pick in the U17 draft
or a big name player from another club.
Lets be honest I havent set the bar very high because Im not expecting us to do much but as always and as I have said, I will apologise on Monday if they produce a big name player.

The thing is, all that is achievable, but what are you willing to see let go to get this done?
A pick in the U17 draft would cost us Pick 15 + Compo pick + Foley potentially . . . are you ok with that?
Tom Gillies from Geelong, rumour is they want a first rounder, our pick 37 wouldn't cut it.
Nicholls from Brissie, not sure what they would want here.
Apparently GWS very keen on Luke Brown for themselves, so would once again cost us something hefty.
The problem is not that we are not trying to get deals like this done, its the fact we dont have the surplus in talent to get these deals done. As we get better through drafting kids, we will have more surplus and can the approach trade week like Hawthorn do.

O.K what are we going to offer to get these deals done?? I can see us having enough currency to get probably one if not two of those deals done. The U17 draft pick would cost us Foley and our first rounder alone,and that might just get us pick 4, is it worth it??
Gillies is contracted and Geelong has stated he is a required player so there goes our Compo pick for an guy who has struggled to break into a side :-\ :-\
That leaves us with peanuts to pick up the rest with and we still don't end up with the one player that we really need in a ruckman......

Agreed, as I posted above, we couldn't get all these done as we dont have the surplus in players that clubs want / draft picks to make it happen.
I wonder how many supporters would praise the club as opposed to bash them if they got rid of Foley + Pick 15 (and potentially more) to secure a mini draft pick. That would mean, assuming Maric comes for pick 37, that our first pick in the draft would be #55.

Sorry Gerks but some big names have transferred to other clubs during trade weeks over the years.

funny you are the sad case that obsessed with me pulling up my posts from 4 years ago to support an argument that you dont even know how to argue

If we leave it up to you we will get Clarke who wants a trade to western Australia, Nicholss from brisbane when he plays for the suns and Giilles who is contracted for another year.
Is it still school holidays or what?

And by the way this year your responses are exactly the same as previous years. Defending the indefensible. Simply Unbelievable.

No No No Monkey. This thread is a classic. Its hilarious. :lol

l never want to see the name McMahon on this forum again. it haunts me ::)

Greg Miller is the name that haunts me, not McMahon.
Jordie is a legend. Average player, but the dud trade and over the odds contract was not his making. Poor eff has to carry a can full of Miller's dung around for the rest of his life.
-
Also if Miller had accepted Port's offer that year of pick 28 for Schulz that could have been on-traded to the Dogs and we would have kept pick 19 and Scott Selwood. But he stuffed that up as well.

As for Jordan.
The year leading up to drafting him, Terry wanted to tag him each time we played Western Bulldogs.
In Terrys words, he ''was the architect "" of there set ups.

I agree McMahon was a good player who was well worth the trade and money he got.
He wasn't the hardest player going around but you can't have 22 blokes all fighting for the footy.

Everybody probably would have. They were very highly rated. Hence Jordys legacy
