Dan Richardson discusses our draft strategy (RFC)

[YellowandBlackBlood]

Would you take pick 1 for Ellis?

Nobody would give us pick 1 for Ellis so it's a moot point.

[Phil Mrakov]

Strategy? Bullwhackers.

[🏅Dooks]

Would you take Geelongs pick 16 odd for Vickery?

[WilliamPowell]

Would you take Geelongs pick 16 odd for Vickery?

Yes but...

Looks like the bulldogs are going to have some very nice picks

They need a key forward, would have been talking to them already to see what they'd be prepared to offer

No-one can turn around and say garlett for pick 60odd wouldn't have been a steal!

bloody hell

[WilliamPowell]

Agree

[Diocletian]

bloody hell

Yep..... alleged off-field issues or not, more than worth the risk for that  price...

I disagree, we're talking about a guy who clearly has mental issues that couldn't make it into a side that finished below us on the ladder. Watch him disappear junto the black hole of Melbourne over the next couple of seasons. The only reason Richmond supporters rate him is because his one decent game a year is always against us, ala Mitch Robertson

speak for yourself LT, my opinion of him is based on a bit more than his once a year cameo against us. Has talent and fills a list need. He couldn't get a game this season bc of a public fallout with the coach - it happens, at the height of his game is a very handy small fwd

[Rampstar]

lets be honest about this - when you have mediocre picks like us in this draft and you don't try to either 1) improve your draft position by adding more picks or upgrading your picks or 2) bring in some decent players from other clubs then there is no strategy and telling the supporters that there is a strategy is just taking the piddle.

And that's a serious concern.

Its not a potshot or cheap shot!

we have done absolutely zero so far to improve our list while clubs all around at least try. Last year we only traded in Hampson and that was a disaster. There is no list management or draft strategy because its apparent to a lot of RFC supporters now  that there is no strategy. Absolutely nothing.

That's a fair and reasonable call for mine.

[Judge Roughneck]

Would you take pick 1 for Ellis?

Nobody would give us pick 1 for Ellis so it's a moot point.

No one would give pick five, either. And yet you'd knock it back on some grounds.

[tony_montana]
