Does it need to be so public?
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.”

Todd Elton in focus
richmondfc.com.au 
October 21, 2013


Tim Clarke says:  “Toddy Elton had a bit of an up-and-down year.

“He got moved down back early, just to see how he was in terms of his competitiveness, and that worked.

“He played some really good games there, but then we moved him back to the forward line, where we needed to see him come through and play at senior (AFL) level, and he had some games late in the season where he had five or six shots on goal.  But it was sort of 1.4 and 2.3, so he didn’t convert his opportunities.

“It’s a big year for him in 2014.  He’s going to have to stand up and play some good football in order for him to stay on the list.”

Possibly not. But the coaching staff would know what he responds best to. If they thought it would have a negative impact then I'm sure they wouldn't.

And if it wasn't public the usual whingers would carry on about us not making tough calls on players and not being honest  :lol

To be fair on Tim Clarke, be has been consistent with similar challenges on many young players. Tough but fair  :thumbsup

I think the shoulder may be a nasty one, hopefully not though

Had been informed by a family friend young Todd is a upstanding gentleman.

Would he not offer more the ruck than Hampson?

More enthusiasm and agility than a Chaplin down back?

More potential and hope than edwards Aaron forward?

Is hardwick blinded by trying to get off the bottom on the table - instead of focusing on what is overall best for the club?

Will never amount to anything if he doesn't learn how to kick. Just horrible to watch when he's lining up the big sticks
