Who's this reporter? Sounds exactly like one the realists here at OER or he's been reading our posts.

It's a great forum, quoted by journalists and meda outlets but for some reason unknown reason aren't accepted by the club.

Very good article particularly player development which has been incredibly poor.

Dimma can't develop players and has an over reliance on recycled hacks or mature aged VFL flogs .
The club is more interested is playing moneyball than developing youth.

All our first rd draft picks are going backwards.

Game plan is so out dated you can't imagine Hardwick utilizing the talents of Yarran if he ever becomes available.

havnt done so since dimwits second or third year

i cant for the life of me understand why, when your zone is falling down completely and the opposition forwards are taking easy uncontested mark after mark, you wouldn't revert to man on man?
“For My thoughts are not your thoughts,
Nor are your ways my ways,” says the Lord.
 
“For as the heavens are higher than the earth,
So are my ways higher than your ways,
And my thoughts than your thoughts."

The fact that Ty Vickery and Reece Conca seem to be walk up starts yet have not performed at an AFL standard in 2016 highlights the difference in standards between Richmond and a club like Hawthorn or Geelong.

Connor Menadue and Jason Castagna have been victims of this mediocrity, dropped after 1 quiet game as 19-year-old kids. How do you expect the club to move forward when it conveys mediocrity and rewards players who have been around for long enough and not performed to AFL standard.


^^^ the most damning comment for mine

Have said for the last few year Hardwick's downfall was going to be playing favourites more so than anything else

Agreed
