agree with wp

sloppy has alot of influencial fans

Thats just rubbish, the only ppl that should be influencing who stays and who goes is the coach and list manager.

I thought we had moved on from the coterie influence rubbish

[Oiafi]

You might find the influential fans ARE the coach and the list manager.

the quote was 'A LOT'

if it is the coach and list manager he could have just said it that way

On what possible basis could he be kept blaisee? ???

He's slow & can't kick. Easy delist if there ever was one.

Not wanting to answer for blaisee

But IMHO Mr Magic the coaches love him and that would be one (read main) reason I reckon he wont get de-listed

They can always date outside of football. 

Don't feel the same way myself.

[jackstar is back again]

My opinion is this
Bit of a sniper which I dont like.
Has poor skills, cant kick
Good mark, although he aint big,
Plenty of better options out there.
Seen him at the local footy,has a small frame, how many small players do we want????

[jackstar is back again]

Get Nathan Jones, bye bye Hislop

[Mr Magic]

Plenty of better options out there.

I'd rather have kept ol' Rainesy than Sloppy and that's saying something.

[gerkin greg]

If he's kept on can consider himself very lucky and surely only has 1 year in which to prove himself under Hardwick or he gets the ass in 2011 – no matter how much people are in love with his naked calendar pics.

not saying I agree but he is still considered an unfulfilled talent in a position that is perhaps our greatest weakness, defensive small forward.

Not a great kick this is true, but his attack on the ball is just extreme, is genuinely tough and has a nasty streak, something we need more of IMHO. Probably has more genuine talent than King, in that he has shown glimpses of winning contested ball in congestion, so I guess they are hoping that if he gets a good run injury wise he could take a big step forward. Is probably the best aerialist of our small forwards as well, that wont hurt his chances of getting another year either, is the right age as well. Who knows maybe things have changed but the last I heard he was still in Dimmas plans .
Is this the vibe you get too WP?

[blaisee]

I really dont understand what the point of an inane comment like this is. Of course Nathan Jones is a better footballer than Sloppy on exposed form. But one is a listed RFC player and the other is a required footballer of the MFC, how exactly are we going to get Jones to richmond jack, looking forward to some winks  . Getting a B grade inside midfielder in Nathan Jones is the least of our prioriities.

Can't agree with any of this blaisee.
King has been far more effective than Hislop as a small forward in the back half of the year when compared with Hislop's ordinary front half.
Jake has much more talent from what I have seen.

If we give Hislop another contract I will disagree with it no matter whether Dimma (who I have enormous respect for) makes that decision or not.
I would much rather see his spot on the list in 2011 be given to another player. Anyone.
