Finished. In Failure. We are a rabble. What a complete Disappointment. But I dont only blame Hardwick, this failure is the failure in understand that when you recruit rejects from other clubs under a moneyball scenario this is what you get - CRAP!

They talk big at Tigerland but once again they have come up empty. Just complete disappointment. Dont know what to say and we pay those idiots at Punt Road to produce this type of crap. They have no pride.

So whose available in the next draft folks?

Of the players in the 25 age range plus:

Richmond boast

A Moore.
Hunt
Morris
Houli
Grigg
Hampson
Chaplin

A remarkable quantity of deadwood in the senior rAnks

Contrast this with opposition lists. They difference are stark a senior players at other clubs often add skill experience class ... As opposed to being a burden
Wowee is all I can say.
Not one player I would keep.
We are in trouble.

It's a hairy big usless monkey that has the turnin circle of a boat, the agility of a MS sufferer lost clogging in the fwd 50
I loled when he turned that Melbourne defender inside out.
Time to give it away if Chaplin does it to you
“For My thoughts are not your thoughts,
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."

Yahweh? or the great Clawski?

I have no problem with the moneyball things, Grigg was a definite upgrade on Collins, others like Houli etc. were upgrades on what we had at the time.

The problem is that we didn't go on with it, once we improved a little, the next wave of upgrades should have happened.

Sell high, like the Pies did with Dawes and Wellingham.

Fair assessment at the time. Upgrade that lot over two preseasons and we're in a much better position than we are in now

You disagree? Our next upgrades could have been Treloar for Grigg, Clarke for Maric/Hampson, someone else for Houli and you don't think we'd be better off now? We'd still need to invest in the kids but those top up players should have been improved on
