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 pooh for so long, it cant always be we pick bad players, it cant always be the coach, the whole joint needs a revolution.
Reasonable view but you don't have to start with a blank sheet of paper - you aren't ever going to have that option of starting from the beginning.
You can do the same exercise by acknowledging where you are and asking how you would change things if you had no constraints whatsoever (cash, people, facilities, etc) and then working backwards to implement what you can actually achieve.
I'm sure they do this sort of thing - they aren't stupid.
Re Judd - I was embarrassed to hear from the horse's mouths (Judd and Swann) just how far we were from being involved - we were nowhere. Never a remote chance.
Re supporters responses - also embarassing. The amount of abuse that players and officials receive on sites like this is disgraceful and shows an ugly side of our psyche. The way Schultz was sent off would make him feel that it's a good move.
