To my way of thinking we need the following
Follow on from B Gales pie in the sky statement re membership/debt/finals, 5 or so years ago.
1. We intend to build a dynasty
2. It will be non negotiable
3. We are only interested in players coaches and personnel who are 100% committed to our vision
4. We need to have the personnel in place to create the corner stones for the dynasty and who are prepared to walk away if they cannot commit at any stage, as such all contracts signed with coaches and support staff will have a clause whereby a payout is not included, but the incentives will be massive.
5. Dynasty Definition: Win 4 flags in a row.
Can our current coach/team deliver on this?
They cannot win 1 final, our list is ragged, it seems that below average efforts are tolerated, our list management is pitiful, player development is pitiful, team game plan and structure is pitiful, team cohesion and structure is doubtful.
IMO our last really exciting time was under John Northey.
If they have paid some stupid amount for a club evaluation and not come up with a methodology to achieve this then it was a waste of time.
Mediocrity is accepted by this regime.
Time for a change and a way forward.
If we have no way forward then leave it as it is, let it rot and fester and we will be in the membership and money situation we were 5 years ago.
Time for someone to take this club forward in the board room and on the field.
That is my Richmond Rant
