I would really like the RFC to recruit more Indigenous players, I really don't think we have focused much on this particular part of our business since JON left. We have had Tambling and we have Edwards but I would like to see a more robust development plan or a recruitment plan implemented that specifically focuses on the recruitment of Indigenous players.
Maybe we have this process in place now, if we do I don't really see it as being effective. I know we select the payers we do based on the needs of the team and the business of winning a flag, but surely this must include or at least should include Indigenous recruitment.
I would like to see at least two Indigenous players in the team and another two on the Rookie list or at least training with the club through a development plan..
The Swans, Hawks, Pies, Blues, WC, Dockers and the Roos seem to be all over this. Even GWS seem to have a few Indigenous players.
Any thoughts or feedback on our current or future plans in this area??
