Honestly, if we ended up with two players as good as Taranto and Hopper out of picks 12, 19, 30 and F1 we’d take that every day of the week.
It would be nice to keep one pick but if we give it all up for Taranto and Hopper we still come out way ahead IMO. They’re both ****en awesome (may have spent the weekend on AFL stats page watching all their touches in a game), and are just Richmond type players, run all day, never shy away from the hard stuff, love to tackle and both have real clean hands.
They’re both players I can see winning a BnF in a premiership team. They’re not game breakers like Dusty, Bolton and Cumbers ect… but more like Prestia where they’ll do their work at a high level and just beat sides thru sheer weight of effort and numbers.

We do that when we do not win a premiership for 30 plus years.
It is called getting bent over and not using lube either

You talk as though Richmond have never had a handout. It helps no one being basket cases and North (and their fans) - nor any club - want to be getting handouts, but they need it. We should be very grateful to have the fanbase that we have, but things can turn quickly and footy is pretty heart breaking when your club is on its knees. They havent been rewarded for their shitness, they need help - yes they've made mistakes, but all clubs do and will.
Rance was on the money.All I see is beaker when Loyd starts flapping his gums. He offers nothing

Clubs shouldn't be getting themselves into that position anymore! The Blueprint has been set! They keep ****ing up their development, recruitment and coaching panel! Similar to Essendon! They make dumb choices and get shit results!
History is a great teacher!
Took us 30 odd years before we worked out where we went wrong because we were so stubborn

How did you cope seeing Dimma with his new partner at the Brownlow? They were laughing and having a great time with the players - must have been a tough watch for you considering you were adamant Dimma had to leave Richmond due to his divorce.
Remember? The players wouldn't respect him anymore according to you. Also you said he had to leave so the AFL would stop picking on us?
So first it was Dimma had to go so the AFL would like us again but now you're saying it's time to stand up to the AFL? One moment you're happy to knife one of our greatest ever coaches to appease AFL house then within a couple of months you want to storm AFL House who you were so desperate to appease.
You've really outdone yourself here.

Let’s be honest we’re the best blueprint in the league on how to climb the ladder (cats and swans are best for staying up). Patients, invest in recruiting and development and stick to a plan.
But rarely do the media talk about that. Instead they jizz over the quick fixes of Z Williams, D Shiel, A Saad etc… or whinge about equalisation.

Bullshit
Spot on. I remember clearly Benny being asked the question in Dimma’s first year as coach when we were down the bottom and we were being compared to Fitzroy etc.
He pretty much said no way. We got ourselves in that mess and we’ll get ourselves out without free handouts and that’s exactly what we did.

John Ralph said on the Couch Pies pushing for it, we have to get Grundy's salary off the books.
What a lovely club to go to if your a player, makes me look like a saint. When it does not suit them they railroad you

I still cannot believe he is probably going to Melbourne. Not sure Pies believe it either
