"I wouldn't go anywhere near Richmond": Walls

Walls just said he wouldn't go anywhere near Richmond as he's had a very hard look at the list and it is very ordinary. North's list is much better.

Okay Wallsy, now back that up.
Oh, that's right - you simply cannot.

It's that simple Spud
"I discussed (it) with my three daughters, my wife and my 82-year-old mum, because it has really affected me … If those comments … were made about one of my daughters, it would make the hairs on the back of my neck stand up. I would not have liked it at all.”

Well considering Walls is part of the reason our list is "not as good as North" he can't really comment can he!!!! Bowden, Tivendale and a heap of others were there when he was there and he didn't get rid of them then...... shut your mouth Walls and go back into your corner..... Carlton corner!!

Strike me down. Walls is

a) Bitter he got sacked.
b) Will make a comment based on where the wind is blowing
c) Will just make that comment and won't state a fact
d) Is prone to make an about face very quickly when a situation changes.
e) Has been on the Carlton gravy train since Judd arrived.
f) Yet last year thought the improvement on the side was natural based on sound recruiting and playing a handful of kids in the horror that was 2007.

Enough said about Walls. Just ignore what he has to say and move on life.
Regardless of the tank fest that might be in store come this Sunday round 5 when we beat them by 36 points. Of course being Robert Walls means when it comes to Richmond means you have selected memory such as lucidly remembering the 1972 GF but clearly repressing the GF of 69 and  Bash a Carlscum 73.

Oh Robbie

You are going to look very foolish next weekend if the tigers win.

Last weekend the Richmond team had a combined total of 1235 games....North had a combined total of 2079 games.

While Im not necessary hoping for a win next week....It would be pretty funny if we won while conceding 800 games experience.

this striked me too.

i can see the problem at Richmond, however 'our' list is a lot better then North Melbourne's.

if the AFL only had a Under 23's competition, Richmond would do very well.

we have 'bad players', but i think our younger players/better players are better then North Melbourne.

when Havery and Simpson retire, North Melbourne are going to find it hard to find leaders.

Jack Ziebell they love and say he will be a future captain this and that, well, we have Trent Cotchin.

however, just have to see against North Melbourne on sunday.

but, do we tank?
