Hayden Morris straightened me up (two femoral osteotomies - painful process) wonder of he could do the same for the Tiges?

I've often wondered about the correlation between Craig Cameron's recruiting 'work' with us and his subsequent 'success' rate with The Tigers... he's the common denominator at both teams .

Perhaps someone with more time than me on their hands could plot a graph of hits and misses with recruiting under his watch.. I suspect it won't be flattering.

I thought he did an ordinary job here and I couldn't work out why Richmond poached him and were so excited about it. He's an ordinary recruiter. His track record speaks for itself.

I say:

Members of long-standing Richmond families, including the Mandies, the Silks, the Ralphs and the Clemengers, attended the Malvern Hotel dinner along with former club orthopedic surgeon Hayden Morris, doctor David Marsh, private investor Peter Capp, IT executive Leon Davies, senior legal partner Guy O'Connor and businessman Guy Nelson.

I still don't know what you're talking about, Tone.

I think there is enough anecdotal evidence to suggest that AFL coaching leads to grey hair.

I'm no medical professional so I will not comment on the stress/cancer debate.One thing I have read is that Immunoglobulin A levels decrease for 6 hours after 5 minutes of stress or anger so most AFL coaches would have a shitty immune system after each game.

It all adds up tho Daisy....All the factors you bought up are part of the job. 

You reckon Hardwick is sleeping well this week?

there you go changing the goal posts. bad diet is not stress. bad sleep patterns is not necessarily stress, failure to exercise is not stress

Richmond should look at hiring Dean Solomon or Dean Wallace as head coach, can't have enough ex-essendon premiership thug defenders that didn't have to do any defending. This turned into a demon sledge too :/

No but they are all connected to the job and add up as a cumulative of that stress

That's just wild, ridiculous speculation.

SWYL - linking Dean Bailey's death with Hardwick's decision on whether to carry on coaching is up there with the best nonsense I've heard on this forum. What about Leppitsch? Should he quit, just in case he gets cancer? What about all the other, literally, hundreds of VFL/AFL coaches who have coached through shocking pressure and not got cancer?

Saty - 'Mitigating' means to reduce, not to increase.

I was using as mitigating the odds of you getting it

Malcolm Speed is one tip to be the President of the new board at Tigger town.

I can only endorse Malcolm Speed as he was universally despised when he ran the ACB and in my opinion,helped bring Australian cricket from World Domination to humiliating defeat.

It was said about him by somebody, though I can't recall who that he was "Lawyerly in every aspect"

In other words ,a detestable [censored].

Bring it on.

Bondy was their best President by far!!

What nonsense. I don't know a person alive who would walk away from that contract voluntarily. People on this forum forget that for the coaches and players this is a job, not just a game:

Not saying he should just walk, but he should be honest and admit that he is not taking the club in the right direction.. Coaches get contracts because they sell on their vision, Hardwick has over- sold and under- delivered. 

Just popped in to tigerland.

Calls for the return of "Jade the Blade"

Win/win in my opinion.

Did mean implode but you're right way too much information there

Back on topic though i must say when all seems lost being a dees supporter its always reassuring to know there's still Richmond to laugh at

The news gets better.

 

All they need now is Toby Mitchell as vice president and Dustin Martin and Jake King will be right at home!

Forget Tassie, forget Ballarat, forget western Sydney ... Richmond are going for a new untapped market ... the crim market!

A rebranding ... the Richmond Coffin Cheaters ... big furry wharfie with bolt cutters as their game day mascot ... it's a sure fire recipe for success. Which players, which coach would dare not to win! (unless ordered to throw a game or two)

Biffen, it's hard to decide what I'd want more. Your description of Speed makes him a compelling choice. However, I would love to see Richmond fall into the hands of Melbourne's underworld. On a completely separate issue, Jake King could find a role at the club. Khoury could play a role in trade negotiations.

Khoury should have some input as dietician.

The reclaim Australia fans, Caro ,Malcolm -it's a broad church.

They need fresh ideas!

'sokay RtG. No need for violence. Just send the boys around to put the frighteners on.  Or maybe a bullet through the front door.

Very, very funny

must be time again for the truckload of manure to be delivered to punt road.........maybe cap it off with a drive by shooting at a few windows of the social club

The Tiges could end up being the first club to have it's very own witness protection program.
