Wallace and Miller

[wayne]

Interesting point raised by a Cat fan on another forum.

If we are after players like McMahon, Hooper and Morton is it a quick fix to try get us 6-8 wins, look like we're improving and take some heat off Wallace and Miller?

I don't know how these three guys would help us get the extra wins, but maybe with another pre-season under the belt of a few players, the returns of some injured players it might be enough to give us false hope again?

With the young players we have coming through we will improve anyway. This was evident by our finish to the season so I highly doubt
Wallace and Miller are doing this as some sort of strategy to try and keep their jobs.

I have had a shower and have calmed down a little.

I guess going after 3 players McMahon, Hooper and Morton is for the sake of the PSD. Two might agree to stay with their clubs, while we can get player 3.

I hope so.

maybe they're just trying to do their jobs ie improve the list.

we did finish stone motherless last lol ... how hard can it be to say we improved the list? Reality is improving the list and making real progress towards winning a flag are two different things - you can add 2 or 3 players and improve a list, but the question is are they capable of being premiership players.

The club argument will be that we are getting 2, 3 maybe even 4 players, taking into account the PSD pick, that are in that middle age bracket that we lack badly. It also fits in with Miller's (and presumably Plough's) view that a modern AFL side consists of 18 "mids" plus 4 talls. The issue I have is we already have a major overbalance of flanker-types and only one true quality onballer who we can rely on yet we're chasing more flanker-types while rumouredly avoiding the best onballer in the draft. We have also lost 5 talls from our list and as yet we haven't replaced even one of them. If we cop injuries again to a few talls we're going to struggle again next year.

That is real cause for concern.

Richmonds problem isnt 1 or 2 people, its the whole joint and the culture down there. Steve Wright should get out a blank piece of paper and start writing down how he would create a premiership club from new if he had the chance- he should consider if he had a 17th licence- how would he do it, what are the requirements, who would a club need, how many resources across the board to start anew, start at the beginning. Its just my opinion but at Richmond we lose the forest from the trees, we start one thing and never finish because everyone is of in different directions and those in leadership quickly lose support from the masses. We have been so poo for so long, it cant always be we pick bad players, it cant always be the coach, the whole joint needs a revolution.

wasnt wallace appointed to fix the "train wreck" that we were.

i know its hindsight but its clear as a bright sunny summers day now. wallace was a mistake and miller was worse


they are the 2 that have turned a train wreck into an unsalvagable ship wreck!

pi ss them both off and lets start from scratch

People on other RFC websites have completely lost control lol...theres even petitions now and you guys reckon me and afew others in here are bad, we dont hold a candle to those guys lol.

After going back and reading more of the other sites I urge people from the club to try and settle down the supporters, some people seem to have completely lost it.
