Welcome to the Tigers - Connor Menadue

Re: Welcome to the Tiggers - Connor Menadue

Probably wishes he got picked by the bulldogs. Who wouldn't?
Seriously we are too judgemental of out players. No wonder players don't want to come to Richmond. Give the kid a break.
 
Re: Welcome to the Tiggers - Connor Menadue

p!ss the traitor off! No one should be allowed to disrespect our club like that apart from the board, ceo and coach.....who have been for 7 years and counting

I reckon Conner is exactly the sort of player that have had the Doggies go all the way. Super quick, never never stops chasing and gives total commitment I still say that in time he will be a great player for us. Baffling as to why he found himself back in the twos for so many games. I agree with others that say our selections have been mystifying and woeful at times this year. Points to a clear lack of forward thinking. Will this change from now on? Man, I hope so....

spot on...the endless games given to completely out o form old softies like edwards and ellis and vikery..and yet young kids like connor drooped after a single average game was bewildering....so much to be pissed off about with richmond..we are embarrassing compared to how the dogs went about their business...so many players get richmonized.

Let him live.

Disagree Jack. That was pathetic by him.

He is a professional footballer paid good money by the RFC. The moment he got drafted by us, his allegiance should be with the RFC. No one else.

Do you think Hodge or Fyfe go parading in public wearing Richmond jumpers?

Trade bait. Get rid of him.

Maybe I have got up on the wrong side of the bed. But he can get stuffed.

Just shows what is so wrong with this club.

Agreed SA. Bad optics for club and player. Poor reflection on one, the other, or both!

Agreed spook. People are looking for things to be offended by. Ang Christou once wore a Collingwood guernsey to Carlton training.

Yup. Some angry people in these parts.

Fyfe/Hodge would probably love it if we gave him a reason to put on a tigers' jumper
 
Re: Welcome to the Tiggers - Connor Menadue

Yep, non issue. Lin Jong visited Collingwood during the year. Still played good footy after that debacle. Won a Norm Goss medal and a VFL premiership medal, would've played yesterday if he didn't get injured and have someone else take his spot. He was there crying yesterday.

Cos he's going to the pies. Realises it's the wrong move but too late. Why do you think he wasn't picked yesterday? :hihi
 
Re: Welcome to the Tiggers - Connor Menadue

Joel Selwood went to his mad Monday dressed as Jake King in a Richmond jumper a few years ago didn't he? Was he crucified for that by his club and supporters?

Fair dinkum some people are precious here looking for reasons to get upset.

Connor's a kid who loves footy. He was rapt when the dogs won. So long as he puts in the effort over the pre-season to replicate the success of the dogs, I'm happy.

I think Menadue will be an excellent player for us but don't rewrite history. His form dropped off a lot later in the season and even when he was in the vfl he didn't really set the world on fire.

Needs another pre season and hopefully we will see a more consistent year from him. Good player with a lot of promise
 
Re: Welcome to the Tiggers - Connor Menadue

I think some people on here may need to find a hobby this offseason if they are going to blow up at things like this. Will be a long 5 months otherwise...

Is that really you SA?

We were all Footscray supporters yesterday. Bloody hell it's only a photo from yesterday along with some mates of his, not that he's coming into public stating he wants to leave. Point the finger at someone like Lennon!!

It's good to get fired up in the mornings, SA. ;D
 
Re: Welcome to the Tiggers - Connor Menadue


Boring, boring, boring. This is a nothing issue.

Good on you Connor, be comfortable with your decision.

Clubs have no loyalty ever talked to an ex player boys?
 
Re: Welcome to the Tiggers - Connor Menadue

Nothing wrong with barracking for the Dogs yesterday but it is just ultra dumb.

Yep, about sums it up. Most had a soft spot for the bullies but that's taking it a it far for a kid that's done sfa. They should make him wear it at tackling practice in the Pre-season.
 
Re: Welcome to the Tiggers - Connor Menadue

Tipping he might get a call from Balmey first thing in the morning to offer some advice about thinking before acting.
