Meanwhile we have a plethora of hacks on enough to fed a small country;  Chaplin grigg Houli Hampson Morris hunt

Don't care what benny says, reckon we need another KPD. God forbid Rance goes down and Chaplin has only so long left in the tank plus we could do with an upgrade on him even now

That is a bit disrespectful.

I'm sure the great Benny gale is overseeing with success the Richmond ruck and key defender stockpiles

Wouldn't mind enquiring about young Harrison Wigg from Adelaide....need more elite kicks as much as anything....

I liked the look of Mitch Grigg from Adelaide too. Not grtting a game but they have a pretty good midfield group to try and get into. Unlike us.

Herald-Sun saying we're interested in Brandon Matera.


OVERLOOKED Gold Coast forward Brandon Matera is being hunted by Victorian clubs desperate for clever small forwards.

Matera kicked 18 goals in 19 games last year after being suspended for a week for breaking a no-alcohol agreement by the players.

After being dropped early this year he fought back to reclaim his place but is again out of the team.

Clubs including Carlton, Essendon and Richmond are seen to be scouting for mid-sized forwards at season’s end.

Here we go, linked to every player, all the big fish (not in this case) but we will sit in the corner quivering and end up with another half back flanker.. :snidegrin

Players must want to come to a particular club. If theyre not certain, then the club must "sell" the dream of playing with them (unless your the Hawks and have just won three premierships)
Geelong is a prime example of how to sell a dream, they are also a team that don't take short cuts and have a proven they have the blueprint for success.
Why would anyone want to live in Geelong? Or Sydney?
But like Geelong they attract good players because those players know they'll be better players at those clubs too and get them closer to premiership glory.

What can Richmond sell?

I can still here Nathan Brown saying, "I left the Bulldogs to play in finals"   :rollin


Richmond FC, ruining careers since '83.   :clapping

Tom Browne on Talking Footy said if the Suns continue to lose (as well as cost the AFL $20m in distributions), then there will be a player exodus from Metricon. He mentioned Prestia and Matera.

Prestia linked to us, Melbourne and Hawthorn.

Throw the kitchen sink at tom lynch ... Almost good enough to turn this club around with a couple more additions ...

Sam day too ...
