We're recruiting from the Dirty Boulevarde.

Can expect plenty from Tigerland to *smile* on them if they don't measure up.

Just on Petterd. Wasn't his achilles supposed to be worse than originally thought? Was bloody sure I'd heard he was almost no hope of being picked up this year.
 
Re: Petrard will be Rookied

The last time we imported this much collective experience (assuming the Petterd & Stephenson rumours are correct) was 1994.

Greg Dear, 30, 137 games + 53 @ Richmond
Michael Gale, 27, 105 games + 91 @ Richmond
Paul Broderick, 24, 93 games + 169 @ Richmond
Matthew Dundas, 22, 73 games + 14 @ Richmond
Mark Neeld, 22, 48 games + 26 @ Richmond
Jamie Elliott, 21, 40 games + 9 @ Richmond
Haydn Robins, 21, 20 games + 4 @ Richmond

Some hits & misses.

Big Blood Nut O'Dwyer was the best of pick ups.

Re: Petrard will be Rookied

Not against this at all. we're short on mid-sized forwards. Petterd has talent.

Why do you think he trying these retreads? He knows next year could be his last.
If our season ends in June like it has in the last 12 years, watch Choco step in as caretaker.
Wait and see

So it should.

Didn't Northey bring Scotty Turner with him from Melbourne?

A few others who didn't play a senior game at Melbourne are Brett Evans (via Springvale), Stuart Griffiths, Mark Summers, Ricky Hartman (no senior games at either club). We infamously drafted David Williams after Melbourne delisted him to allow for recovery from a knee injury, but he didn't play during the two seasons he was on our list. Greg Sizer played 1 game at Melbourne and none at Richmond.

Then there was Bill Morris, who played one game for Melbourne reserves...

Merv Keane got a bit lost on his first trip to Melbourne and went for a run with the Demons by mistake.

Pretty diabolical reading. Not sure why we persist when faced with the facts.

Nothing wrong with doing the same thing over and over and hoping for different results.

I call *smile*. Seen one of them on Criminal Minds so it can't be the first in the world and secondly after watching the actor stumble around I doubt he'd ever be ready to play AFL. :hihi
