Richo's new role the coaching move of the season - Walls

[Fishfinger]

Lets face it, if it wasnt for Richo, we would never of beat Melbourne.
And Giesch did play him on a wing, oh how people forget.

Frawley played him as a roaming wingman (twice) in 2003. BOG in a massacre of WB at Docklands, then pantsed by Riewoldt 2 weeks later at Docklands. Shelved after that because he was all out attack and zero defence. Pretty sure he didn't have him doing it any time before or after that.

Wallace has him playing a different role. A lot more defensive now.

When did Gieschen play him on the wing? I reckon I've got a fair memory and that doesn't register.
(HFF does, not wing).

ps. Round 4, 2000 - Pretty certain Richo was at full-forward all day when he kicked 6. His foot was trodden on in the last quarter and badly broken rather than a stress fracture.

pps. The bookmark for round 12 is here. Sacking date has been pushed back again, I see.
Was end of 2007, r12 2008, r13 2008 and now the Centenary game.
Anyone for r11 2012?

I "stay tuned" but all I keep hearing played on the frequency is    &

im sure it will be reintroduced after this weeks game, perhaps someone lost the rubberstamp for his papers.

If we lost against the Demons, it was going to be rubber stamped
Bloody Richo, lol
Wallace lives to fight another day, lol

[Francois Jackson]

richo won that game for us and thats sad it really is. 33 year old wingman

its great for the big man because i love him, but gee when is someone else going to step and win the game for us.

It was actually but the white knight sadly passed away

When he retires - seriously.  He is larger than life in our team and until we visit life beyond Richo many of our other players won't step up.  Not saying its a good thing or a bad thing or a blame thing, just how I see it.

was the "white knight" gonna put the crazy cash on the table.

[Go Richo 12]

best tactical coach in the league

You have litttle idea.
Terry coaches like basketball, If the ball cant go forward they chip it around sideways, forget about the run and carry theory, it aint happening

Matty White on Cameron Bruce.
What about Raines or Reiwoldt last year
Oh yeah, Joel Bowden re invented as a forward , lol
He played in D 50 on Sunday if you care to look

Lets face it, if it wasnt for Richo, we would never of beat Melbourne.

He played him CHB as well.

I'm sorry but can we please have a thread going that doesn't bag the absolute poo out of TW? Totally sick of it. Opinions are exactly that, opinions. Not the Gospel truth

Yep that's what I remember too FF. It worked fantastically initially until the opposition coaches worked out that as long as Richo marked outside 50 it didn't matter how many marks he took as there was no one else inside 50 for him to kick it to and our scoring dried up.
