......... some have all 3 failings yet we hang on.
Says you and you alone. Don't see the club doing that at all. See the club using all facets well. Recruited as many 18 year olds last year as any other club. But hey don't let the truth get in the way of entertaining us.
what has that got to do with expecting the club to assess and cut players from the list.
i for one congratulated them on the way they went about recruiting last yr i just didnt agree on many of the players taken. ive argued pretty hard for a long time that recruiting is about keeping your early picks and targeting good mature players who meet good criteria with later picks . but hey lets paint old claw in a different light shall we.
id like nothing more than to see us use 5nd picks this yr and take another 3 or 4 f/a mature afl and state league types this coming draft/trade/rookie period. i wanted similar last yr
but of course to do that you have to cut players and we just cant have that now can we. after all we have a premiership list.
jack hannath has done well in his first yr at afl. sam dwyer says high along with brent moloney aaron black and kyle martin. they are just some of the players i thought we should target last yr.
i believe i said while happy with vlastuin who i defended on this site as a bloody good player i thought brodie grundy a worthy pick 9 and a greater list need.
ah well it seems i know nothing.
i believe i supported us taking a edwards for no other reason than we only had ohanlon on the list who you could classify as a medium sized forward.
i have advocated we try hard for scott lycett or billy longer for obvious reasons. theres a few wafl players i think we should have a look at . imo it would not be hard to improve our list and fill holes but that means we turn over players.and we cant have that.
what garbage is that? who is talking about us having a premiership squad? Serious question, Are you a troll? nobody could possibly seriously sit there and say Richmond supporters or the club are talking premierships with the list we currently have? You are so black and white and deluded, footy clubs simply don't work the way you boast, actually only one does and that's Melbourne.
it was a piece of sarcasm aimed at one poster and it was warranted.
seems to me theres a few who disagree we could and probablky should turn over 20 23 players over the next 3 yrs.
all i see is people sooking at any suggestion that some of our players are no good havent made it or are struggling. none offer up an opinion on who we nshould cut they just whine like girls at anyone who does.
we sure as hell dont have a premiership list but you dont see many actually say it.and even fewer are prepared to state who should go.
the list is ordinary we re among a lot of other teams in a similar boat and if we fail to manage the list properly we will do a nm and not make the 8 next yr.
it is no0nly stating the obvious and i will continue to say it until we actually build something thats worth getting excited about.
