Here we go again. The soft cap boogie man
![lightning :lightning](http://oneeyed-richmond.com/forum/Smileys/default/lightning.gif)
Don’t skimp on development
Don’t skimp on high performance
Don’t skimp on recruiting / list building
Do that and it’s not a soft cap boogie man that’ll be haunting us but a cancerous tumour of mediocrity will infest and set us back 10 years and it takes another 10 years to rectify it. So there’s 20 years in crap going nowhere making up the numbers
You need talented people you get those people and make the adjustments in the whole organisation and pay the fine IF there is one.
It’s not 1990 and we aren’t tin rattling anymore.
We are a powerhouse football organisation with more paying members than North Melbourne, Footscray and Saints combined.
I’m sure there’s a lot of wasted money elsewhere that we can find, like on virtue signalling initiatives that do nothing for actual football performance that we can do away with.

For instance, instead of wasting money on purchasing rainbow flags, socks and hats we could use that money to get the VFLW program going again considering we are the only club that uses an affiliate.
Then all the girls will have real support in a more professional environment.
