Why would you leave a job to take a position with someone that doesnt and might not get a job? That would be pretty dumb aye?

Have posted this in the Board Spill thread but so it doesnt get missed 

Also from Today's HUN (11 sept 2016)

Confirmation that Balme has been spoken to by the current board not the challengers....geez you hope Monday's cirucs hasn't stuffed things for the RFC 

Any way from page 80 Ando's Shout column

"Word reached this desk that NEIL BALME, that man everbody wanted bar the police earlier in the week, did soeak with  a Richmond group regarding the possibility of him working with Dan Richardson, who is currently rhw General Manager of Football.

The problem for the rebel naord ticket is Balme spoke with the incumbents, who remain hopeful of lurong him from Collingwood"

Further to this Jake Niall reported something similar on Fox Sports last Monday

it's expected if Balme comes across he'll be head of footy dept Coaching etc whereas Dan will be in charge of list management/contracts etc which is his area of expertise as a former Player manager.

Hope so.
 I suggested Balme after the first time he was axed by the filth at the end of 2006 but we were happy to instead go with a hack ex Melbourne list manager which once again proved another astute signing by the RFC. 

[Yeahright]

it's expected if Balme comes across he'll be head of footy dept Coaching etc whereas Dan will be in charge of list management/contracts etc which is his area of expertise as a former Player manager.

So if Dan goes more list management/contract where does that leave Hartley? Isn't he the head of list management, whatever his official title may be.

I'm hoping he'll be the orange boy until his contract expires.....
