Richmond GM of Football Dan Richardson discusses the Tigers poor start to the season, and defends their overall strategy.AUDIO: https://audioboom.com/boos/4507860-richmond-gm-of-football-dan-richardson-on-breakfast----------------------------------------------------------"We couldn't take eight years to rebuild. We needed to become competitive a bit quicker than that. But at that time all the best talent basically for the next four to five years was going to be going north (to Gold Coast and Greater Western Sydney)," Richardson said."We're seeing the likes of GWS reap the rewards of that now. Our strategy wasn't just to go to the draft like a lot of clubs did because we knew that would probably take six to eight years and we've seen that with the likes of Melbourne."We didn't think Richmond fans would accept an eight-year rebuild. We turned it around in four, which I think was a terrific achievement."We're paying a price in the sense that we knew that that mature-age talent would get us to a point but not take us to the next level, which was always going to be the hardest part."While it's been disappointing somewhat to not win a final, it's been a good achievement to play finals for three years in a row for the first time for 20 years for the club."http://www.afl.com.au/news/2016-05-02/richmond-paying-the-price-for-recruiting-strategy-says-football-manager

The rest of us led by the great claw, realised it when we lost to the blues, and the subsequent response in the first few rounds of the next yearAnd some of us were hit with infractions for posting content that was perceived as 'too negative' after many complaints from other posters. The same posters who now agree. You know who you are. Perhaps it's a lesson for all involved.On the final 4 lines. Not that I've ever complained as debating a different view should be a key part of any forum but I'd argue that your view has been consistent for a couple of years.We finished 5th last year and it was a good year without being great.I'd argue on balance that any poster who disagreed with you until this year could do so with credibility and in fact win that debate in the eyes of others if not yours.Waiting until we fail doesn't make you right in hindsight.There is no lesson to be learned here.It's just grandstanding to say otherwise.Having posted the above, I'd acknowledge you've made a number of valid views this year which I've agreed with - partly because of club performance, partly because of the way they've been constructed.
