What is "The Ricmond Way" of playing?
« on: May 17, 2015, 09:21:15 AM »
I'm going along today determined to discover this elusive mammal called The Richmond Way" of playing - hoping to work out the characteristics of this version of AFL football.
What is it?
How does it work?
How will we know it happening/not happening?
Does it actually help us win or play other teams into form?
How does it differs to Danny Frawleys "Richmond Way" - he also lamented unrichmond like performances
Does it lift or lower the quality of the spectacle?
Is it the coach, players, list,recruiting dept, Benny or Peggy's vision that delivers it?

I'm reaching out to the OER community- if we pool our knowledge then together I am sure we can work this whole thing out
"The money might have been better. But, at the end of the day, Richmond showed faith in me. It's only fair that now we're 18th on the ladder, I show the faith back in the club and do everything I can to put them in front. In the end, I'm stoked I made the decision to stay. I f***ing love this club”

Easy..

Its uninspiring, turning the ball over, slow, unsure, poor decision making, having the wrong players in the wrong positions and absolute crap..

See. We play it so well!!

“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.

By the sounds of it, it's winning, exciting, tough football. We haven't played like that since 1995

I think it means playing the Hawthorn way but he probably can't be seen to be copying

Maybe Dimma needs Swooper as his senior assistant

I think we're delivering on that style of football....
