I have no problem with what Patrick Smith wrote.

IMHO he wrote his piece based on the continuing fallout from the "5/10" comment.

Seriously it isn't a surprise that the media has jumped on this .... since the way the Club bungled the Miller sacking the media has been circling waiting for the circus to roll into Punt Road again.

I still shake my head over the "5/10" thing in a word damaging

I just see this whole thing as sad 

And this of course  :banghead :banghead

Anybody at Richmond's centenary celebration dinner - now that was well run - could sense that the Tiger spirit is strong and that past players dearly want old Richmond people in charge of the club. If that mood is shaping the board's thinking then end Wallace's contract now and save itself the angst of publicly debating his future over summer and into winter next year. Richmond promises much next year and a distraction over its coach's future could be destructive.




he is spot on about the above.

I dont have a clue what goes on inside the club but to me this is all a media beatup.

He said 5/10 , well good becasue that what it was,  9th is a 5/10 no matter where you are comming from. How do you take that and twist it into TW has to go now or get renewed I dont get. TW had 5 years, they have all said it over and over, so he get 5 years. I just dont see the problem here. Its only a story becasue the media wants it to be and so many people take what these idiots say as facts.

I dont see it as more termoil inside the club, just another reason to ignore most of what is writen and said by the media.
Here , kitty kitty. Here , kitty kitty.   AAAUGH!

Maybe, but it would be nice to have March come out and say some of the stuff he's read in the media and on messageboards is garbage.
Until he says something like that, it'll go on, and on and on.
