As i see it.

It is an attempt at possession football combined with cynical negative defensive tactics involving deliberate out of bounds, physical contact at every occasion in order to impede the opposition player, both legally and illegally, jumper holding, sheperds the lot.

It is a leaf out of the Leigh Mathews school of footy and basically it is modern football.

ask Caro. She uses the term freely. Even l'm not sure what it is. l presume it's about winning. Just win the game. Well every club trys that lol But ask Caro someone

You'd hope what we got in quarters 2, 3 & 4 is the Richmond way

And the tripe from the 1st quarter isn't but........................

Well according to Hardwick on Fox Footy's On The Couch last night  that was actually(paraphrasing) "The North Melbourne way" (slingshot/setting up goals from half back)and he hopes we go back to winning "The Richmond way" which is apparently setting up goals from turnovers in our forward half....though when directly asked what the Richmond way was he basically dodged the question and said we prefer to keep that in-house and not tell the whole world before saying something about "maintaining the highest standards" .....

You're kidding yourselves.
Stop it, ffs.
This RFC way of playing football is clearly the average standard of crap they have dealt up for thirty years.
Anything above that is what THEY HAVE BEEN ASPIRING TO GET TO but without consistency it's merely a target
So the RFC way of playing football is non existent at best and deeply seeded in nostalgia at best.
They've don't nothing in the last 30 years to suggest they have a style whatsoever.

Hardwick called them insipid two weeks ago.
It was the first time he gavearealistic appraisal of his team.
The RFC style of playing is, by statistic strength - insipid.
So don't kid urself

Dimma defines the Richmond way

Tigers’ coach Damien Hardwick has provided an explanation of what the ‘Richmond way’ means.

The term has been used increasingly by Hardwick and Richmond players in the public form, as a benchmark for the team’s performance.

“It’s a set of standards and behaviours that our players abide by and play by,” Hardwick told Fox Footy’s ‘On The Couch’ last night.

“Every player that puts on the Richmond jumper knows the expectation of what is required, both on-field and off-field from those.

“Most clubs will have them, there’s no doubt about that, but probably when we’re playing our best footy, those are the things that are done to an incredible level.

“At various stages, with the consistency of performance that we speak about, those standards haven’t been met.  That’s probably the disappointing thing, and the thing that the players hang their hat on the most of the time.

“It’s been working for us . . . it’s been something that’s been a long time coming, but I think the players are starting to really get the idea of it and, more importantly, run with it.”

Ah!  Good!  So glad that the  club has cleared that up!   

Not!

[Hard Roar Tiger]

No wonder we don't know what to expect from the players- that is the most confused answer to a simple question ever!!!
