Question
Am going to the game as always unlike some on here
I do I record it on IQ .? As there is no provision for the press red for Kev
If you press record .it will just record normal commentary

What I can say Jackstar...last year when it was " Press Red for Ed " all the replays ( and it's fox footy so you know there will be heaps) were the Eddie version.

Can only assume the same thing for Kev.

This is a great innovation by the way....such a shame Richmonds 2014 campaign has not come to the party.

Answer - learn how to work a remote.

As I have said clown
You can record the normal commentary on IQ from the remote app on with the actual remote but if your at the game and the record function is preset
You cannot record Press Red for Kev
I obviously understand this better than you as you don't even understand the problem thus cannot give me a solution
Foxtel cannot help either I have just found out saying that you wil be able to record the replay later in the week ?

Jackstar is back!!!

Mal Brown has done a lot of great things for the club that dont get recognised. For a long time some of our best recruits from WA came to Richmond because of Mal Browns intervention back in WA where he did some fantastic work. Maurice Rioli & Robert Wiley being just 2 examples where Mal played a big role in their recruitment.

After what seemed like an eternioty of being simply crap, we finally had a coach that had us playing hard uncompromising and good football. we won more than our share of close games and showed a fighting spirit unseen for ages in coming from behind to defeat essendon in a final.'

Thanks to that c-vag we lost that coach and got a carlton piece of excrement  to start the slide back into the mire for another decade.

Any perceived good he may have done  pales into comparison in terms of overall and long term affect his undermining of Northey had on RFC.

He should be banned from having anything to do with the club.

Stuff him and his family.

Everybody blames Brown for Northey leaving us but where's the evidence ?

Northey did what so many Richmond people of power have done in the past 30 years and looked after himself.
Couldn't back himself and see out the last year of a contract and prove idiots like Mal Brown wrong- he was looking out for himself and took the cash.
I loved John Northey but he lost me when he tried to hold the club for ransom.
I'm not a huge fan of Mal Brown either but don't kid yourself or give Big Mal undeserved credit -Northey walked.

northey didnt hold the club for ransom at all.

all he wanted was some job security, and he had earned it.

Mal brown was heading a very public campaign to have him replaced.

With that going on and the club refusing to extend his contract, how could you blame him for taking a 3 year contract elsewhere. Who needs constant undermining from wanna be powerbrokers  while trying to do their job

The only way to prove mal brown wrong was to win a premiership. What coach in the history of the game has had winning the premiership as a condition of keeping the job.

Nor are your ways my ways,” says the Lord.

Every coach after Tom Hafey at Richmond until Francis Bourke, maybe even Mike Patterson.

"Give me a 3 year contract or I'm walking" isn't holding the club to ransom?
I know it was a few years later but Paul Roos proved that boards can be won over in the right circumstances.
The whole must win a premiership or he won't get a contract extension is just opinion - we will never really know but it is highly unlikely he would've been sacked had we delivered a strong 1996.
Anyway, Mal Brown - let's not give him the credit, imagine the smug look of content on his ginormous, pumpkin shaped melon head if he read these posts!

Don't bring that old chestnut up again, how much more security could you need than be in a contract midstream. That bloody maggot left for a bigger pot of gold at the end of the rainbow , was poetic justice he stuffed up in the end and I'm still reeling the silly was made a tiger hall of famer  :banghead

brown's argument was that northey was a good coach, but not good enough to take out the big dance, and pointed to the fact that he got clubs to the grand final but couldn't win them.

So the only way to to curtail this undermining would have been to have won a premiership, even a runner up would have led to a "see, thats what im saying"

It's not a case of giving Brown credit, but if he hadn't been fronting a movement to have Northey replaced, i doubt northey would have asked for the contract extension when he did.

By RFC not giving any security, even a 1 year year extension, would have done nothing to alleviate any fears that John had over keeping his job.

Brisbane jumped in and offered him a three year contract so he took the secirity. I for one can't blame him.

Brown? I wouldnt pee on the fat stuff if he was on fire.

My mail is that you were one the faceless stuffs backing Brown in this caper and that you two went down to the Footscray Park public toilets to celebrate when Northey announced he was leaving

The bloke had just taken us to a prelim final and was getting some great results with the group. Then that big mouth wanker  started publicly undermining him, he had every right to ask for the security of another year. Wasn't going to do all the hardwork and then have sheedy walk in and reap the rewards.
