SHANE Edwards has recommitted to Richmond to the end of 2016.

Richmond will be relieved to have secured the quick South Australian's signature.

Is this an Austen Tayshus quote?
A surprised koala pic. I can't believe we actually gave Titch two more years. It seems we only re-signed Edwards up because of what happened with Matty White. That's not how you do list management.

Worst decision this club has made or there about. It ranks up there with the recruitment of Sanchez, P Bowden and the rest of the list clogging country players we have recruited or kept.

Worst decision this club has made or there about? How? Poor decision but how is it the worst decision the club has ever made

Agreed. It will never top re-signing Grigg. That only happened a year ago. Or trading for Hampson. That happened 6 months ago.  :lol

That's the thing though....what would be a major stuff up at most other clubs is just a standard stuff up at ours.

Oh noes.  Tigers are trying to help us forget about their past mistakes by topping them.  Was a pretty good effort.  Classic tigers. 

Stay tuned, nine year contract, 1 million per year for Vickery.  Have to sign him up fast before Ballarat seconds get in.

ffs ive come to realise they dont deserve my support or even my criticism. sthe only thing such ineptitude deserves is to be totally ignored.
id like to see just one person  someone any one from that rabble try and justify a two yr contract for that bum. he should be up for trade and the very best he should be expecting after 8 very ordinary yrs is a 1yr performance based contract. he should only get that after we shop him around.

just about the straw that has broken this camels back. you can see what is going to happen. every out of contract  player bar 3 or 4 will be re-signed before the end of the yr. there will be limited turn over of players. there will be few new faces and desperate areas of weakness in the list will be ignored.  it is more likely than not they will take players just like s edwards in f/a because they obviously cant see player deficiencies,  they  think blokes like this hack can play.
 it is patently clear that this rabble is totally incap[able of learning from its past mistakes and learning from clubs that succeed.  they dont deserve anybodys support when they cant make one hard decision on players and are so deluded.
what a freakin rabble  and welcome to the next 10 yrs of mediocrity. that is what will happen you dont have to be nostradamus to see it when decisions like this are made.

If you are considering pulling your support and criticism can you throw in your forum posting

Thanks for considering

We had to keep our only indigenous player for Dreamtime.

In all seriousness we don't know how much he will be getting paid. There are a lot of players that need to be delisted before him. Probably 2 years worth funnily enough. Sad but true.
so you agree he needs to go not just now. so what about trades. sillier things have happened.  restricted f/a some club may have been dumb enough.
with out a doubt he should only have got a one yr performance based contract if we were to give him a contract at all. that contract should not have been given until the end of trade week.

yep I was hoping he'd stuff off and we'd get a compo pick. I've got 7 though I'd like to see us get rid of first. Some coach will think they can get something out of vickery, then I'd cut batch, Helbig and ohanlon. Hopefully newy King and the other Edwards all retire. That's enough for now. Agree he should have only got one but I'm sure we can still find enough to cut next year anyway.

Agreed. Should mount a late challenge to Ablett on Brownlow night from here.

Played a physical game well.

Needs to do the same against quality opposition who are more physical and apply pressure
