Sorry kids

Not only would I have recruited him but have the ability to handle and mentor him.

Are you a migrant. Lots of English courses on offer. Do Kelly was BOG? Dusty was Awarded the Norm Smith for Best on Ground. We could have had him.

Not interested in 23 of them. We need to pick 2 of them. I dont agree with Anderson as a lock in. Our second round with go for Langdon but that is un inspiriring and a needless addition of a ponytail.

Hey DD. Well I would have recruited pickett and personally had the ability to handle him. I would have had Nic nat over Watts, would never have fallen for all the other recruiters bluff with Scully and Trengove, just one of the two small men. One look at Toumpas was enough to see nothing. Tyson and Salem was a no again. And its a no to Thomlinson in our hour of need for speed, skill and creativity with the ball. And I would definetely not fallen for Goodwins cheat sheets at interview. Does he mentor Greta Thunberg.

The bloke does not have the ability to fill a key role.

Well, I would not have recruited them.

700 odd players in the AFL and yet Goody and Co send out the call. " Go get me Tomlinson' Should be sacked for that alone.

Do not tell me what to do. We do not have an AFL game style anyone respects so less talk about brand the better.

Culture is a Club thing Mono, not just down to the coach. Six years in to the Roos/Goodwin thing and we do not have it.

I have followed since 64. Check out Richmonds record against ours in that time. Premierships. Finals, Head to head,

Selective at best picking 2016. The one year in the last seven they did not make the finals.

Tigers Demons President Peggy O Neill Battler Bartlett CEO Brendan Gale Pert Coach Hardwick Goodwin Captain Cotchin Jones/ Viney Home Base Punt Rd Goschs Paddock Supporter Base Massive Moderate Recruitment Brave and clever Conservative Players Committed Good when winning Culture Excellent What?

We are as far away as the late sixties, early seventies and there were only 12 teams then. Look at the situation. Victorian Power Clubs, AFL investment in the Sydney Clubs, dominant and super professional WCE, a big Adelaide Club and then Brisbane. No room at the inn for us.

Brand is a marketing term, and meaningless, culture is another thing all together and we do not have it Hardwick is a balanced person, Goody not so much.

i miss the point. people here are commenting on what we lack to win a flag. By the by. You do not tell me what to do or think.

We coulda had Ben king last year. No way is he coming to us now.

It would take a dull brain to not see what it takes to win a flag and not compare where we are to where we need to get to. Each to there own though, ignorance and denial helps some sooth the pain.

Might have helped if Goodwin reviewed the preliminary and gave them some direction.

All we need is A home ground A dynamic president Recruiters with a vision A development program A skilled coach A club culture A dozen or so extra top line players.

It wont be someone his size. Just a bully boy

All year we have heard the company men excuse our 2019 on a poor pre season- Enter Pickett in June.

We do not have the guts or the culture to recruit the likes of Pickett. Gotta have the right kinda wholesome chap you know.

Because we do not have a good culture or mature coaching we always go the mediocre, safeish option. Tigers backed their culture with Pickett.

Completely wrong way to look at it when many of us would not have recruited the NQRs you mentioned in the first place.

Imagine the conversation between Goody and Richardson. Richo, I want you to concentrate on..... Actually forget that because we dont know your role yet.
