Raines is no worse than 15 blokes on our list.

Would rather see Raines than someone like effing Petterd.

Until he was actually in our side and then he would be crucified, castrated and minced and diced and put in the poo truck ready for dumping

Come on now guys, Rainesy is a poo truck. Look elsewhere please.
Matty White is the disappointment. He had his first decent season with us and then we was out the door.

I am not sure why we keep talking about players like Raines that left the club eons ago, we may as well talk about Ottens again or old mate that went to the Crows and played a million games...... :-\

“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.

Not sure if the club will ever recover from losing Raines

Pity he has got knee issues since he left punt rd

Solid tagger. Wish him the best and I mean that sincerely.

Your man Jay Schulz is a star.

Schulz was the one that left that is a disgrace to our club's development at the time.

Jackstar is back!!!

Jay has said more than once that leaving Richmond was an awakening for him. He realised that he had to lift his act and standards and work harder.

My question is, why didn't we have those high standards as an absolute minimum at the club for all players to achieve? 

Therein lies the entire problem of what we all call the RFC!
OER. Calling it as it is since 2004.

a lot of issues with the club mate but for me this is the biggest problem with our club.

Standards are not high and our coaching staff are not respected, hence why you see one handed attempts at tackling, players not manning up at defensive kick ins and above all else big calls not made on the same hacks every week. How is that demanding excellence, someone explain that to me.

Dimma is their friend, the bloke they crack jokes with, the bloke whose mum brings dinner over, you know the Spud Frawley type.

I agree with previous posts and for me when the season is well and truly over i couldnt care less where they finish, in fact would rather near the bottom so heads will roll in all departments at the footy club, from T Clarke to Blair Hartley down to that boxing coach.

I am not calling for Dimmas sacking yet as the season is not over in terms of making finals. When that comes and our season is poo his career at the RFC is over and my bet is that will be around rd 5 next year.

The pressure he will face dealing with our club's early losses and dusty/cotch putting talks on hold will be the biggest scrutiny the club has faced in a while and we know how well the club handles that type of adversity.

Did anyone one else get a phone call this morning from the club offering $200 raffle tickets.
The gall of the club. No thanks. Last year the raffle was in July/August. Shocking timing if you ask me.
No thanks. I give enough of my hard earned. Time to repay us RFC.

Just found out wasn't even the club ringing was an outsourcing telemarketing company who specialise in footy fundraisers. Club too gutless to speak to the fans and receive backlash from frustrated members.

Been using the telemarketing co for these raffle tickets for years now

The raffle thing is for the FTF

Haven't had the call, have always bought a ticket but wont be this year

Time for the RFC to get the message

The best Tiger Supporters Backlash is to not give them money so freely like we all have over the years.

Ha ha. I got that call today too.
I asked the nice girl if I could talk with Damien personally.
She said she wasn't actually from the club.

The club that keeps giving.
