The Richmond way to me is the way of people like Tommy Hafey,graeme Richmond,Francis bourke,KB,sheeds.Neil Balme.
A way of playing football and the business of football,that was ruthless uncompromising,and yet honerable,certainly the way Tommy T shirt did it.
It was a way that stayed true to the working class origins of the club and the suburb that was Richmond.
Well that's the Richmond to me anyway

100% spot on!  :clapping

Others will see this as us eating our own- The Richmond way.

Whatever it is has been crap for 32 years.

TJ calls it The Richmond way, i call it

Richmond is a pretty serious hereditary disease that should not be joked about.

I've passed it onto my 3 yr old but she still has time.

I asked her who'll win today Tigers or Kangaroos and she emphatically said

"That's silly daddy, Kylie Kangaroos". ;D

TJ is absolutely spot on about the list management at the club. Its looks like they just recruit anyone just to justify their positions of employment within the club. Its a joke and a disgrace.
this for me.
seems theres no over all plan with some sort of idea of what numbers are needed in each area.  no idea of how the list should look and no idea where each player is at and the likely ceiling of each player.
if you dont have a certain type that is needed to play go and get a mature one but ffs make sure you draft one or two kids as well so in a few yrs time you have a succession plan in place.
the other area we continue to get wrong is hang onto players for too long. we re-sign players who have barely done enough to be kept  for to many yrs thus mnaking it impossible to properly cut players when needed.
ah you could go on and on. we just have to fix this area and put in place proper processes to manage the list.
