Hartford and Wallace on SEN were just discussing this now. If you could add any 3 Tigers of the past to our current side who would they be?

Royce Hart: because we need a CHF. Or someone who can take a grab around 40 to 50 out.

Kevin Bartlett: because he would add class to the midfield.

Merv Keane: because I always reckoned he was underrated by our supporters and he was a terrific player who add substantial class off half back.

Apologies to about 80 blokes but in particular to Mopsy Fraser. Would have loved to see him beat the crap out of some opponents on the G.

Jack Dyer in the ruck  :bow   He'd sort out a few of these 7ft pansies;
Royce Hart at CHF, and Jack Reiwoldt as the second forward;
Fred Swift at full back.
You'd get 500,000 people to the 'G to watch the game, especially if we were playing Collingwood.
 :cheers

1/ Jack Dyer by along way - would just love to see him playin the Yellow & Black

2/ Royce Hart - because I can't remember him that well because I was only 10 when he retired

And because I saw a fair bit of KB growing up I'd love to see:

3/ Bill Morris or Jack Titus

hmm we desperately need a fb chf and ruckman. for me dyer in the ruck he also fills the enforcer need.
chf to hart but i want the royce hart before his knee went.
swift is the full back.
could do with someone like the ghost at chb as well.

some other needs we have atm.
small forward bartlett. or skinny titus. sheesh just think of a  a froward line containing riewoldt hart titus and bartlett
second ruckman lee.
another enforcer in percy bentley the true wild man in richmonds history.

no support for Mopsy claw? I would have thought you would have supported some well chosen acts of thuggery.

whoops was thinking of mopsy when i wrote percy bently. mopsy was truly the wildest man who ever pulled on a boot for richmond.my old man regaled me with stories of jack and mopsy, would take both in a heart beat in fact they are must haves in any richmond side.
i still recall the story as told by jack dyer of mopsy taking on the 3  twomey brothers  at victoria park and causing a riot. the whole team needed a police escort to get out of there.
