I've just listened to the President's speech and the Coach's speech

Pretty obvious from each one there isn't going to be any serious changes 

Which is what I was expecting (sadly).

Not sure why I bother anymore

Richmond Rant / Re: Pass mark for 2026?

« Last post by the claw on Yesterday at 10:02:55 PM »

Lol at the hysteria and focus on the win loss table.

Improvement for us atm is NOT directly related to win loss ratio's.

In fact if playing as many available kids as possible is the aim, as it should be. Then  US  and WCE are likely bottom two again.

If the kids are fit we must play them. Lets not do this year again where we managed 6 wins with so many of our kids not available.

Its a fact people, not until we get a large group of the talented kids to 60 - 100 games then we are gunna struggle to win games.

Measure improvement just with wins then punt road oval will get torn down by disgruntled supporters.

Ya know lets say all of Smillie Lalor, Hotton, Faull, Armstrong Trainor Campbell McAuliffe and Cumming play 15 games each then we will cop plenty of hidings.

The only other option is to play blokes like Rioli Sonsie HRS etc we will still lose and may even jag 5 or 6 wins but it will get us nowhere.

We don't need to win games to see player improvement in youngsters.

Embrace year two of the rebuild they usually take a lot longer than what is spoken about. Watch the kids get games and experience this will be the real improvement not some win against a battling side with a side full of older battlers. Which if we are honest is where most of our wins came from.

I think I did see some had him in their
 First game team which I thought was just extraordinary

Extra ordinary based on what.

In his first year he played exceptional footy in the vfl. He actually has better attributes for a running role than many we have on the list.

Geelong got the pick right imo but circumstance said they had to cut him and another youngster to fit in mature servants.

Imo in any other draft he would have been taken top 30 - 40 but in last years draft he slipped to the rookie draft.

Forget about Geelong or where he was initially drafted just look at his attributes for the game and how well he performed against men last year.

Having seen HR-S for 6 seasons id play him in front of him every single time atm. He at the least doesnt poo his pants when contact is inevitable or panic.
