Welcome everyone to One-Eyed Richmond's Tiger Forum Cheers from mightytiges and WilliamPowell.
I think Rioli is replaceable. We only have to look at who our high quality running backs have been.Houli - Pre Season draftShort - RookieRioli - Rejuvenated small forwardIf we are offered Pick 6 and 15 for Daniel. Take it and run.Anyone with pace and good skills can play off half back. Take Zorko who is 40 years old for example. There is no guarantees the IDs we pick will be the answer. What is proven however is if you don't have enough top end talent you will never come close to winning a premiership. If we don't get into this year's first round and next year's with multiple selection we will be the next Essendon.
Still will be the best player in our side currently, and probably (debatable )will be the best at GC, if he goes, your belief that a 18 year kid is a guaranteed better prospect , shows a speculation and naivety on your behalf,

Come on WPRegardless of who you think it’s directed atIT’S A VALID POINT FRANKIE MAKESStandards have dropped in basically every level of the club , it’s obviousIt’s also obvious the club has fallen back to leaking worse than the Titanic post iceberg And regardless leak or no leak - what’s happened to freedom of speech in this world Nothing said was offensive in any way shape or form ..
WP you seem to be struggling to tell the difference between "baiting" and "banter" these days.....for a start baiting is trying to get someone to fly off the handle and/or break forum rules so they get suspended or you can report them, basically entrapment (eg '65's m.o.)...that's hardly going to work on the forum administrator is it now?

A simple statement to try and get a riled up response I'd baiting Frankie's post didn't mention anything about standards, just one of these which sort of gave it away that it was his direct dig at another poster. Perhaps if he had actually articulated his post was about the dropcin standards then I wouldn't have replied the way I did but he didn't.I'm all for freedom of speech but I have said numerous times over the last few weeks be careful what you wish for. So we don't get accused of playing favourites anything that could and can be construed as baiting will be called out and removed. People can't have it both ways
I work in Africa and they were taking the pee out of me for saving Africa.......
FJ is the only one that makes sense.
Are the same people who sold the farm for TT & Hopper even though GWS wanted to and needed to get rid of them to free up cap space still in charge of our trade negotiations?
