Ruined a good post there, I was happy with myself with that one.

Anyway we'll lose Rance for a few weeks and this will turn into a really ugly season now. Sucks.

been trying to think of Rance's other dog act all night. Vic deliveries.

Rance running around like one of those thugs in a **** reserves side towards the end.
he was carrying on like an idiot at the end of the Port EF thrashing

ps

Oh **** of Rance.

I'm sick of his ****. Goes hard at it and is a good bloke but he's dumb as dog **** and I'm sick of it.

How thin is Hardwicks ice?

Folks seem to be giving them grief comparing them to Melbourne but really shouldn't they be comparing them to North? It wasn't so long ago people were saying Richmond had a better list than North, is it just poor recruitment, poor coaching or poor development?

its pretty thin.

The question is, would it be thinner had they not re-signed him? If not, then this whole idea of clubs re-signing their coaches to take the acid off their coach and remove media scrutiny during the year is a failure. It was already dumb, letting the media dictate when you re-sign your coach, but this is just proof that it is not only dumb, but it doesn't work.

Yes North is a way better comparison. The Melb comparisons were happening in 2011, but they stopped when the clubs went through completely different paths.

North and Richmond have had the exact same path - long term coach rebuilding and making finals.

Amazing that the game ended up becoming watchable after the second quarter was some of the worst footy ever.
