He has been very quiet in recent times, has the chief. Very little media since the start of the season.

Welcome Liam Baker

Head down n arse up busy workin as he should be. No need to roll him out at the moment coz even the meedjia understands that we're half crippled with injury and aren't bothering to have a crack at us.
Just on this issue, I noticed in today's Hun that the Woofers CEO Baines has suddenly crawled into the sunlight n backed the coach to protect him from the meedjia mob. Prick din't crawl out until after they'd had a ten goal win and the sun was shining bright, bet no-one would have heard a peep from him if the Woofers had lost that game to StKiddenme. Not a bloke I'd want riding shotgun for me.
I am more than happy for bakes to go home and we get a 1st rounder, I would also be happy to see Rioli go to the Suns for a 1st rounder, love them both and they have given us flags, but if they want to go, let them, and the club goes to the draft with plenty of power for a strong rebuild.
It looks like he may get an offer he can't refuse. If that is the case then you can hardly blame Bakes if he leaves, it's a short career as a footy player. Will always be a favourite at Richmond.

What do you mean 'you can't blame Baker?'
Heaps of people turn down money because the environment they are currently in, ask Riewoldt, ask Dusty ask Richo.
If it wasn't for us, Baker would be milking Cows.
He owes us. Either he stays or he makes sure he picks a club that compensated us.
I think 2 things are true, saying we can't blame him for leaving for a better deal isn't the same as saying he can take a dump on the way out, he's allowed to go & chase a better deal, but you'd have every right to expect he does it in the right way
Watching tonight - surely bakes picks the eagles. Harley Reid will be carrying the side on his back within the next 2 years, and freo are their usual mediocre selves. Trade will be interesting - do the eagles think they have enough talent to give up a top 5 pick for bakes?
Can't see him leaving. Reckon he is next as skipper.
However, should he feel the need to move on for monetary reasons gagf.
Like zips pointed out, Jack turned down the dockers at our lowest ebb, Richo the same and Dusty left millions on the table.
Yeah it's going to be tough but who says we can't again?
He belongs at the Tiges.

Depends, they will never give up a pick under 10 for Baker.
But i won't accept our 1st pick for there's if they finish under us.
Yeo for Baker
Yeo, who's only played like 10 games in the past 3 years, with our strength & conditioning department? Better ask the eagles to throw the set of crutches he'll inevitably need. (And even if we've got a new S&C group by then, they'd be too unproven for it to be safe to deliberately bring in someone that injury prone)
Couldn't agree more. We are usually pretty easy. Time to lose that reputation.
I'm joking. But Yeo shouldve been looked at the end of 2021, imagine him in the guts in the 2022 team
Yeo is rising 31 and injury prone, has played 43 games in the last 5 seasons.
