You would have to be mad to give a player a 2 year contract who was dumped due to discipline problems and then rejected again when given a second chance.

We've already picked up one fringe player from another club. Please not another one RFC  :-\

It is believed former Bomber Tom Hislop has been offered a two-year contract at Richmond.

:P

Why give someone who was delisted for off-field issues and then rejected again by Essendon while training with them, a 2-year contract  ???. Hislop's hardly a player type we need more of either. This will mean two recycled mids from 5 picks :-\.

Well if we win a flag with those 2 in our side then we'll all be happy to say how visionary the recruitment staff have been.
Until then :banghead

That is an interesting decision.

Our midfield stocks have been bolstered but I am not sure if there is an elite player in our recent pick ups that I thought our midfield needed to round it off.

With Thompson and Hislop maybe we will be drafting two talls with our first two picks, oh well not long to find out now.

The clear message is that the people making the decisions at the RFC are of the opinion that we are "soft", Thomson and Hislop toughens up the midfield, not skill wise but interms of hard at the footy, tough football, having said that I wouldnt be wasting a pick on Hislop. I wanted 4 new kids at Richmond not Recycled blokes.
