Richmond's training was poor: Ivan Maric (Ninemsn)

[Judge Roughneck]

It's like Ivan runs the club.
LMAO.
I'd prefer someone with heart doing it, anyway.

All this article does for me is just re enforce what a stupid cultureless club we are,where we let standards slip and nobody notices nor does anything about it until our season is shot...just a truly amazing article

does it surprise you though mate? the place is run like the blue oyster bar

[Gigantor]

Angus I thought that we had changed,but we haven't..theres something in the makeup of this place that drives this but stuffed if I know what it is

[lamington]

I'm not surprised Ivan brings better work ethic into the club. The guy is of Croatian descent ie.communist blood ie. will run until his feet are bleeding.

really need more like him. I hope his cousin brings the same attitude to the club.

[Gigantor]

you want more Croatian communists?

Great leader is big Ivan 

That's what missed most when he wasn't on the ground for the first half of the season, his leadership.

So many things point to him being our most important player

to think we have only 2 or so years left with this bloke at his best and no one else coming through.

  

im with u there, ol willy.

Apart from Tito, Croats generally despised Communism and were among the most enthusiastic of the Nazi collaborators in Europe during the war.

The place lacks mental toughness but above that it's getting ahead of yourself as we so often do.

The problem is they believed their own poo instead of coming out hurting in round 1 they thought they were going to stroll into finals

The club is stuffed and these wins and this article just prove it more and more

[Simonator]

Im glad to hear that our standards have lifted.. but i recall dimma saying earlier in the year when we were losing that we were training really well, just couldnt perform on game day. lies lies lies

[Rampstar]

Only wogs understand standards of excellence. Richmond needs more wogs. 

[Gigantor]

yep that's the one worrying part..the coaches and managers didnt notice that standards had slipped...its their job to notice

[lamington]

Only wogs understand standards of excellence. Richmond needs more wogs. 

  they did build tje hydro electric dam after all

It's what happens when your official policy is to only listen to people "within these four walls" at the club.

Richmond were prepared to accept a below-par training standard earlier this AFL season but the Tigers are back on track, ruckman Ivan Maric says.

yet all we heard about was how hard they trained, at the time.....

Deledio said it was the hardest training they've ever done....

Maybe for him but what has Grigg, Thomas, and to a lesser extent Ellis been doing?
