I am sick of seeing Hawthorn and Geelong get all the best players, year after year, while we sit back and do nothing. Mind you we shoot ourselves in the foot when we put it out there that we are tight with our player payments. The way we handled contract negotiations last year hasn't helped either, the Dusty situation looked bad on both parties, Matty White, can you imagine the outside perception of that by potential players to our club? It is not just Tiger fans who find it unbelievable that he wasn't offered at least 2 years by the club, which he reportedly would have stayed for. We are just not an attractive proposition for good quality professional players at the moment, let alone any of the guns.
One other thing, who would want to come to Richmond and get yelled at by Riewoldt and Chaplin, our so called fwd and defensive leaders who themselves are virtually incapable of second efforts. For leaders their body language is disgusting, yelling and cursing at the players, pointing fingers instead of chasing, who would want to play footy in a team with that?
