Perfect development ruckman.

Well there you go. Fair dinkum. Another "development" player selected by this utterly blunderous Recruiting Manager of ours. How many more years is this gonna go on for ?

Is there any chance this dud could actually get us players that have an already developed game ? Yeah, right. This bloke is gonna look great alongside other "development" players like Goofball Graham, Short Pass Pattison and co.

The sooner we get rid of evo the better.

Tend to agree.
 
You two duds are full of it.

You spend all year bleating about the power of the draft and how we must use it to be build reserves in positions we are lacking and then expect ready made bigmen at pick 51.

It's little wonder that our recruiting team ignore you,the great unwashed.
 
Its amazing how our esteemed Recruiting Manager “evo” comes out in the press praising himself for giving up pick 19 for yet another skinny muppet flanker with a granny moustache, and yet he complains that he doesn’t have the early picks to get a developed big man !

Clearly he has no plan. None at all !

This bloke is a used car salesman. He works off the back of an envelope. Yesterday’s man. People would be horrified if they knew how unprofessional he was. I see him at junior games regularly, standing around talking to boofheads in strange clothing instead of watching the games in earnest with professional resources and aides around him.

Geezuz, the bloke is so small fry he doesn’t even use a capital ‘E’ in his name ! What’s going on there ! ?

Dud. Get rid of him. Taking us backwards faster than you can say “Dean Limbach.”
 
Thats more like it.And is in fact true. :-[

But I will say this in my defense.The RFC only issue me one envelope per year to write my insightful thoughts on the back of.Hopefully next season they will extend the budget to allow me to use 2.
 
And how often does he use the "budget" as an excuse ? Pathetic. The Bulldogs, North etc. They all have less to work with than him yet they still get the job done.

Lets face it: evo wants to be a none man show at Richmond and run everything. This bloke needs to be "Beck'ed."
 
All evo is interested is his 5 minutes of fame each year. He has NFI when it comes to spotting talent or list management. Time he Becked off.
 
I keenly await you and your fellow plebians petition.

At least I'll be able to use it as something to write on the back of ,next year.

Now that you feel like Spud the Dud, where are the cliches ?
 
Let me ask you this, evo, who are you going to recruit in the PSD ?

Exactly. No-one.

You might be lucky enough to convince Guy Richards not to sign with Williamstown if you begged hard enough.

As a result you wasted pick 19 on that skinny flanker McMahon where you could have got him for nothing in the PSD.

Where's that petition. I've had a gutful.
 
Harry,to be fair,I did warn you months ago what I was planning.

Why do you think I went to so much trouble in the media talking down this draft?

I find it important to soften up the rank and file before delivering my masterstroke.McMahon will be seen with the benefit of hindsight as one of my all time great moves.





P.S Don't forget I was the guy who discovered Wayne Carey.
 
Sorry, didn't realise I was next.

I'll be a couple of minutes.

Yep.

Now that we have an "A" grade junior defender & 2 inside midfielders, we at Brisbane feel that we now have room to experiment.

We will take another tall defender, Harry Taylor, 193/4cms, 90kg, 21yo, from the WAFL.
We don't have any problems recruiting WA'ns at all, after all we're in Queensland, beautiful one day .........., just ask Jared Brennan. ;)
 
Look what this evo fella's done to our list.....

& now look at what he's drafted.

Another HFF'er in Smotchin.

a Bloody Tarrant, the only family softer than the Bowden's

& now in that damn evo's words a "developing" ruckman. Leysys sick of developing. Evo's love children Meyer & Oakley-Nicholls are still developing. Yeah, devoloping in the flaming Coburg two's....

Beck him.

So you guys think getting McMahon was a great move?

No !

But you obviously did as it got your big fat head in the papers after your deluded attempts to get Judd failed. You were prepared to do anything and give up anything for the glory.
