Caro is the one writing with emotion rather than logic in that piece.

We shall see. I just don't think GCS passing on Rayner is as a sure outcome as people are making it out to be. How GCS handle Ablett will show you if they are going to be any smarter under Evans.

So how long will Channel 9 leave it before telling us that he is on The Footy Show tonight?

I have. You are just too blind in your hatred to see. But Richmonds odds of winning the flag went from 1 in 18 to 1 and 8. So, as of Sunday, they got a little better. And that's fact.
You guys are all over the shop. I love the fact now we are already seeing back peddling from some North supporters. The old "glad we didn't get him/sigh of relief rubbish".
There's been nothing logical posted at all by a bucketload of north posters in this thread and now you want to take a moral high ground? Please. No wonder you lead "Kaos".

Oh that.
When everything is equal Richmond aren't even a top 4 side. Sydney should have your spot in the top 4. You have lucked in to a winnable final by drawing Geelong, it's a 50/50 match, but your side is no chance beyond this point. Bookmark it. As for "Hatred", it has nothing to do with anything, this is the sort of crap that is spouted by inconsolable teenagers when they don't get their way. I don't "hate" Richmond. They are not significant enough to "hate".
The footy show would be promoting it right now if that were the case.

Yeah I mean, imagine overpaying under-performing players just to satisfy the cap.
Keep it up for a few more years, and the AFL can fund us Paul Roos to instill a culture to take us back up to the lofty heights of 9th.

Caro is normally very good at writing without emotion, but everything she has written on this saga has come across as very fanboish.

I'm not sure what you're getting at here. I don't think Sydney needed funding from the AFL to sign Roos up as coach, and he also took them to a premiership... and you can't be talking about Melbourne, given the AFL didn't fund that and he'd done his job a year before we finished 9th. Strange post.

Take the blinkers off. It is well established she has no love for Martin at all.
Good thing she's banned from North...

Interesting how you started the response. A lot can be read into that.
What Richmond have proven is last seasons result was an abnormal result.
So a top 4 finish isn't that unbelievable. I think back in 2015 we finished a game out of top 4 as well.
Sydney simply weren't good enough over the whole season to justify the top 4 spot. Their results ie: w/l back up my statement.
Our game is definitely a 50/50. I like those odds out of Skilled Stadium as any opposition supporter would. They are a quality team.
And the rest of your post was emotional clap trap.

Think one thing we can ALL agree on, she should just be blacklisted full stop.
I know the bad blood goes further back but I wonder how richmond fans will view chopstick gate in a few years..

Was cleared by Victoria Police at the clubs instigation to investigate it.
The reporting of that incident and commentary on it was embarrassing. Much like this current contract negotiation. It's like the media is trying to out do itself on the levels of dickheadness. Remember when we used to laugh at the English media? We are just as bad now.

Not long now and it will be confirmed Dusty is staying.
North gave it a good shot but no cigar.

Sorry you might've misunderstood my posts. Carwo had him in her sights then and now, nothing's changed...

They were nothing but a pawn in the end, was well played by Carr to string them along like he did.

Sorry mate, I understood it, but she wasn't the only one. KB wanted him suspended for a year. I think Kochie had similar sentiments as well.
The hysteria was loco.
And you're right, carro does hate him. But i'm sure the feelings mutual.

North just gave Dusty the ability to get more out of Richmond. Couldnt have seen him leave to go to North.
And him not going could well be a blessing for North. To put that much coin into one player is just stupid.
Stick to the normal rebuild via the draft.
Ding ding ding.. we have a winner!!
There was an agenda now, as then, and she's completely set him up if he leaves.. the tigers fans will despise him.

All this for maybe 50K extra?
You don't really think that do you?
North threw the kitchen sink at Dusty and, it seems, still got rejected. Embarrassing, and really unlikely to inspire others to go there. Other profile players will look at that and their fist though will be 'what's wrong with the place', making it harder to get anyone through the door.
North becomes a 'destination to avoid' club, and having been there, it's really hard to dig yourself out of.
