Results are the only thing that matter. I am not only talking about wins, but I want to see on field improvement. Everything else is window dressing...
Re: CARL PETERSON
I remember back in the day when we had him, I liked him alot, Looks the goods.
But remember..........It was one game & it was against Melbourne.

shultz had 11 disposals and 1 behind from full forward. I didnt see the game, but these numbers dont have me scared hes going to morph into matthew lloyd. On the flip side, i was impressed with adam thompsons game. did alot of hard underneath stuff and was in the camera alot of the night.

I didn't see any rebuilding in the 5 years TW was at Richmond. I saw a lot of tops, scraping for wins, mature age players who were not our future playing over kids, media spin. There was no 'rebuilding'. It's a common misconception that most opposition fans like yourself can get wrong, that we have been rebuilding for a long time. Maybe TW said we were but he never laid the foundations for a rebuild, that's what DH is doing now.

No, I think the key word in your post that makes it wrong is CURRENT. The current rebuild did not start in 2003. If you think Hardwick carrying on Wallace's "plan" you've got rocks in your head.

Exactly, if there was ever was a five year plan (which I severely doubt) it was abandoned half way through when we spooned. After that it was all about short term fixes and Wallets desperate attempt to continue milking the Richmond cash cow for as long as possible by trying to get a contract extension. This is year one.
For a Richmond fan SP you really get a lot wrong about your own club
A rebuild started under Wallace with the much publicized aim of contesting a flag in 2011
that rebuild failed as most the players who were expected to support it failed (i.e. Hughes, Schulz, McMahon, Meyer, Pattison, JON, etc.....).
As such, the ultimate failure of this rebuild combined with the retirements of our vets last year means we had to start all over again.
So the current rebuild is about 6 months old.

Correct, Wallace did have a 5 yr plan/rebuild when he came and we all thought the aforementioned players (and many others) were going to be our saviours. Didn't happen
So we start AGAIN! For what, the 5th, 6th, 7th time over the last quarter century?
