HARDWICK POACHES ANOTHER TIGER

Sam Landsberger
Richmond will confront another member of its premiership dynasty in Opening Round with life member and team manager Mark Opie reuniting with Suns coach Damien Hardwick on the Gold Coast.
Opie served the Tigers for 24 years and recently assisted football boss Tim Livingstone on match days running the interchange bench.
The part-time stalwart has long been considered part of the fabric at Punt Rd, but has bobbed up at Metricon Stadium in recent weeks.
The lifelong Richmond supporter has joined former Tigers Shaun Grigg (midfield coach), Alex Rance (leadership consultant) and Hayden Hill (football analysis manager) as part of Hardwick’s new regime.
But from that quartet only Hill and Opie were employed at Tigerland last year. Grigg was poached from Geelong while Rance had been living in Queensland and contacted Hardwick when he signed as Suns’ coach.
It’s believed Hardwick’s top three off-field targets when he joined the Suns were Hill, Blair Hartley (Richmond’s general manager of football talent), and Danny Daly (Brisbane’s general manager of football).

His continued to raid our football department and will continue to , usually coaches who leave on good terms never do that there's always that respect about poaching staff. The way he went about it how he left and continues it bit of scumbag.

Little by little he is destroying his legacy. Can't wait to beat that prick.

Yze taking down the memorabilia and Hardwick removing the deadwood.
If you’re stuck in the past, you die in the present.

While I am pissed at Hardwick stealing our people, it will only speed up cultural reinvigoration that Yze is clearly working on.

Yeah the bloke that counted the stats won us the flag in 17 and the bloke that sat next Hardwick won us the flag in 19 and the bloke that left today won us the flag in 20.
Have a stock take sale and clear them all out.
I thought I heard everything but now Hardwick wants Danny Daley too.
Wasn't he responsible for the final losses in 13 and 14??
 
If they don't want to be on the quest for the next Tiger premiership then Adios, Auf Wiedersehen, Sayonara
