Lets get him fit and firing for the finals. He can play footy. He has had ordinary luck but he can play and he is a smart bloke. Its important to have good blokes and smart blokes at a club. For me he has a place in our best 22 if he is fit. I would keep him for 2016 anyway.

It's even more important to have blokes who can actually get on the park.

Would be a pee poor piece of list management to re-sign him - even by Richmond standards.  Old wrecks like him & Foley to be stuffed off. We're not a stuffing charity.

Yep at this point of time if he's signed on for 2016 it'll be a very poor decision (I'm assuming his contract ends this year). Would need to do something amazing through the rest of the year

According to draft experts this years crop is crap. I saw a couple of games on TV and there was hardly anything there. I can see us only making 3 or 4 list changes this year. If the club thinks he can be fit for 2016 he should stay.

Yeah and if that results in us not having money for an a grader then what?

Foley Newman and this bloke take up close to a million dollars. All 3 should be thanked for their services and shown the door.

Be ruthless for once RFC, like the doc said we are not a charity case.

What would we get for a million. Dangerfield?

no problem with giving these blokes the big A, but then to use three players salary on one replacement can have its own issues

Nor are your ways my ways,” says the Lord.
 
“For as the heavens are higher than the earth,
So are my ways higher than your ways,
And my thoughts than your thoughts."
