    Herald Sun article petterd garland rivers.

    "But as soon as I started playing footy and seeing the direction we were going in, it was pretty hard not to sign a contract to be honest." "The players were the biggest reason I stayed. The biggest thing was the boys."

    Well done Ricky - Great to have you on board for the next few years.

    Great great news.

    So relieved.

    Thanks for staying Ricky.

    Great news on Col and Riv also.

    I'm surprised Rivers got two more, I don't think he is in the best 22 now, so by 2012 we could be in the same position we are in with Newton and Messon.

    Rivers more than deserves two and is in our best 22.

    Frawley, Garland and Pettard were all 3 VERY important signings.

    The only other players that need to urgently be resigned are Bate and Watts. However realistically Watts is too much of a risk for GC17 to throw mountains of cash at, because he's no certainty to become a player, so i'm not worried there.

    Great signings.

    My dream of seeing this forward line is still alive.

    Green Bate Sylvia

    Pettard Watts Jurrah

    With Dunn, Wona, Jetta, Bennel, Tapscott, Fitzpatrick as forward options, there is no doubt that those 6 above are all genuine goal kickers with enourmous talent.

    But... but... McKenna bought a house on the GoldCoast...

    I don't understand how Petterd could stay with us in spite of that...

  • Quote

    I have it on good authority that Petterd is off to the Gold Coast next season. Now, the AFL has just released information that clubs will be compensated in the following manner:

    Elite Player: 2 first round draft picks

    2nd Category: 1st round draft pick

    3rd Category: Selection at the end of round 1

    4th Category: Round 2 Selection

    5th Category: Round 3 Selection

    The question is, what category does Petterd fall into? The thing is, Petterd hasn't been able to show his full worth due to injury. But I would love it if he managed to slip into the 2nd Category although I think that to be honest, he is probably more a category 3 player given he has been injured all year.

    Thoughts?

    Come on! The papers must have it wrong - Freak even knows the address!

    Can somebody post the list of remaining uncontracted players. I couldn't find it using the search function.

    With Frawley, Garland and Pettard signed, most of the important young guns are locked away.

    I'd like to see how many other really important youngsters have yet to sign. Watts and Bate are the only 2 I can think of off the top of the head

  • Quote

    Oh the joys.

    In all seriousness though, it's very good news for the club.

    Sylv, the Gys and Scully were two mentioned in the article, along with Watts. Not sure of any others - it's all too hard to remember!

    It was the "good authority" you mentioned that had it wrong.

    The picture on the Herald Sun site is FARKIN' EPIC

  • Quote

    Well, looks like the GC17 will have to look elsewhere for talent.

    I believe the following are out of contract:

    Bail

    Bartram

    Cheney

    Bate

    Watts

    Blease

    Miller

    Maric

    Dunn

    Bruce

    Bell

    PJ

    Martin

    Newton*

    Meesen*

    Hughes*

    Healey*

    Spencer*

    Spencer will be offered a contract on the seniors, leaving us with a clean slate for the rookie list. The dees will look to re-up Blease, Maric, Dunn, Watts, Batram, Bail and Bruce. I think Cheney might be asked to to a "Jordie" and play on the rookie list next season. This may also be the path for Maric who has much to prove.

    Maric is signed til the end of 2011

    • CASEY: Richmond

      The winds finally returned to Casey Fields for the Demons’ third home game of the VFL season, and its impact was immediate. After two opening rounds played in uncharacteristically fine conditions, the Anzac Day clash brought back the familiar gusty conditions that have been a feature of the region at this time of the year.
      Forced to kick into the breeze first, the slow-starting Demons faced a tricky opening against an enthusiastic young Tigers outfit. Casey responded by turning the contest into a scramble, pressuring Richmond into errors and missed targets. The tactic proved crucial, keeping the game tight for three and a half quarters before the Demons pulled away with the autumn wind at their backs.

    • REPORT: Richmond

      It seemed as if the whole purpose of the Anzac Eve clash at the MCG between the Demons and the Tigers was building toward that single, unforgettable moment when Kozzie Pickett soared above Campbell Gray and all but fittingly etched his name onto the face of the 2026 Frank ‘Checker’ Hughes Medal.

    • GAMEDAY: Richmond

      It's Game Day on Friday night. ANZAC Eve. The big stage at the ‘G. The Demons return to the spotlight for one of our most significant nights on the football calendar, taking on the Tigers in a clash that always carries extra weight given the gravity of occasion of the commemoration of the ANZAC Spirit. Under the lights, in front of a packed house, this is where moments are made. Can the Dees rise to the occasion and deliver on the big stage, or will Richmond spoil the night? All the build-up, discussion, and in-game reactions here. Go Dees.
