Welcome everyone to One-Eyed Richmond's Tiger Forum Cheers from mightytiges and WilliamPowell.
I know that cost is the big problem but another thing that needs to change at Tigerland is getting our own side in the VFL. We need to be fast tracking our young kids by playing them all at the highest level we can. Playing them in the Coburg two's is not good enough! There is no way that that is good for the RFC. If we are to compete with the top clubs we at least need to be giving ourselves the same oppotunities. Collingwood and Geelong have done it and look at their development compared to ours.Find the money (2mil profit) and employ somebody who can develop our youngsters and maybe we may see some improvement in our list.
And play the games at Punt Road, if it can be managed line up a few as curtain raisers for games we play at the G also - Will recoup some of the cost doing that.
