remember Richmond shafted you not the other way round they should have honored you 300 games
In the end he could hardly walk after one of his runs, couldn't kick further than about 30m and couldn't chase his opponent to apply any defensive pressure.
I actually found it quite sad watching him hobble around in his last few games and thinking what a great player he used to be.
If you were arguing about him losing the captaincy I'd be with you. Nursing him to 300 games though - no!
Thats right he could hardly run so why play someone like that injured
why not rest him the year out & over the summer then let him have 1 more good season & produce something to the club & retire year end without all the media crap of him being pushed out the door having the captaincy ripped off him instead of destroying his career playing a injured player like that a coach should be sacked, a doctor should be held for it the club itself what was it thinking
The Captaincy ?? gee where would l start there reguardless of who l am, Knights should have remained captain till his career was over then Richmond should have picked the next captain be it Wayne or anyone else it destroyed the moral at the club & it was not something the club needed at that time & we turned to pooh again
Knights had a Judd type injury but the coaches down at Richmond would play a name player 40% fit before playing a young player who would give 100% effort & a chance to show what another player could offer the club
Its been happening down at Richmond for as long as l can remember & a player should be honest in saying when he is injured & unable to give 100% effort & the club should effing wake up but it still has not learned anything Terry Wallace is just as stupid
l effing tired of hearing excuses from coaches oh Johnson had broken hand, Richo had broken jaw, Tuck been injured, Krakouer knee probs, Deledio injured, Tambling injured but they can all play cause there important to the club in name. eff whatever happened to moral of having 100% fit team with players who can give 100% effort & l can go on & on but who is responsible its the coach who media dribble effing riles me
The team gets smashed by the biggest losing margin in history & wins another wooden spoon well eff the wooden spoon its the worst thing on earth
no wonder Shultz cant produce down there cause he aint given the right directions from the start it like just wait your turn When Richo is finished you can have a go then thats the attitude at Richmond when Johnson use by date is up we try someone new why eff push Johno out make him earn his spot cause he aint giving directions to players & he aint doing his job on the field eff force him out the door Knights was 10 times better rounding up a poohty Tiger side cause the team we got on paper is good just it aint be coached the right way
Hughes, White, JoHkeley, Rewoldt, Meyer, all going backwards cause the message is these name players are better than you 60% fit but never produce
King 100% tough 100% fit smallest man can produce skills, fitness, speed, take a hit because he is 100% fit & goes out to give his all
But we have spoke of this over the years we are going backwards again here thinking of what could have been
My AFL membership next year will let me watch any game l want next year cause Richmond aint worthy of my money anymore after this wooden spoon how effing embarrassing is that too have 2 in 4 years the worst results in the 100 year history & the worst record for the last 25 years in the AFL cause idiots have been running the club because they live in the history of the club instead of making a new future
no wonder players are wanting to leave our club these days
Oh sorry fishyfingers l hope that answered your questions
l feel better now
