Well, unless a key player defects to GWS, or the club completely cocks up the handling of a club legends retirement, or a young star gets caught blowing 3 times the limit, you certainly should. 8)

Or A coach is sacked half way through the year, or a player cleans out his locker wanting to leave, or that same player is accused of assaulting a team mates missus ;)

And still just miss out on finals? 8)

Oh, finals by the way, for those Richmond fans out there, they are what the rest of the football community is getting excited about when you blokes are starting your pre-season training. :lol:

Just miss out? you are kidding yourself if you think you just missed out last year?
Happy to take carp from a Geelong, Saints, Bulldogs or Collingwood supporter of late, but from a port supporter talking about finals? Seriously :oops: You may as well started your preseason before the grand final in 07....And yes i definitely would rather finish bottom than get pumped by 119 points in a GF. Your mob made finals in the last 2-3 years?

You will see below we were 1 game and %age out of the 8. Sure, even thinking of getting 10 wins in a season would give you blokes a bar a bulldog couldn't chew on but yes, thats just missing out.

You'd rather finish bottom that get flogged in a GF? Good choice barracking for Richmond then.

As for Grand Finals, "your mob" hasn't made one in your lifetime..... :lol:

After watching Richmond opening their account against Port last year we'll all just have to agree that they are both 5hite.

Fantastic News, Brodie Martin doesn’t require a knee recon and could line up this week.

Would have been devastating for him to have another recon, promising young talent!

Bahah 1 game and percentage it may be, but a difference of 26% could be classified as more than just percentage. Bloody hell mate, thats a shit load out of the 8 if you ask me (and yes Richmond were further out the 8)

Not sure if its been mentioned but craigy has signed a "permanent agreement" that sees him employed as a full time employee at the club with no contract. interesting move and a good one IMO

Explain why it's a good move when you know little about it?

I know a contract means nothing in the modern world ( see Mark Thompson ) but surely this makes it easier for the club ( or Craig ) to cut ties at their will?
