3AW talking about it now and Hardwick coming on soon.
DIMMA - You will be held ACCOUNTABLE...

“We are really excited about what we have brought in. We have got great depth of players that can take us where we need to go. We are just putting some cream on the top at the moment,” he said.

Shaun Hampson is the No.1 man"

Hard for younger players to perform when there is no leadership and no marshaling of the troops
Example being McDonough
Seen him " spectating " in last quarter .easy goal to Essendon as a result
What should happen is the a senior player goes and grabs him by the jumper and says this how it should be done
What did happen kids drops his head and makes the same mistake 2 mins later
There lies the problem and that's why we can't develop younger players
Problem is now that this kid will need to go back to the twos to get some confidence  as he has picked up some bad issues already in his short career

Spot on, lucky l never seen that l would have been over the fence l reckon  ;D

No worries Mario Milano  ;D

In my whole entire life supporting Richmond the only real captain we've had is Matthew Knights. I can't think of anyone post 83 who has been any sort of leader.

Feel for Cotch, it's not an easy job. No1 else could do it. We don't develop leadership. What is the club doing to help Cotchin become a better leader? Is he doing any external PD? A phone call from Cam Ling or Brett Kirk? Michael Voss even? A leadership course?

Club does nothing to develop this area.
Go Tigers!

All clear from the MRP including Hocking bumping Lennon in the head ...


The match day report against Essendon’s Heath Hocking for making forceful contact from front-on against Richmond’s Ben Lennon was assessed. The ball is loose and Lennon is attempting to take possession. Hocking approaches the loose ball and attempts to gain possession. It was the view of the panel that Hocking was contesting the ball and had no realistic alternative way to contest the ball. No further action was taken.

I reckon all they have to do is get rid of 10 or so spuds and bring in some hard players.

Cotch would look a lot better in a decent side

That rule is a absolute joke. Its there to protect the players head. It may as well be delete from the rule book. Along with many of their other stupid rules
