But I reckon that’s it

Footage in the box looked emotional.

He’s done

Richo’s face certainly said “I’m done”.

I missed that. Let’s hope for everyone’s sake, including Richo’s, it’s true.

Would be interesting to pull the pin now....

Makes no sense. The exact result I feared... an honourable loss.

If he didnt leave before, why leave now?

Officially can’t make finals ✅
Less than 10 goals ✅
Will we get some dribble in the press conference? ✅

Richo out
Richo out
Richo out

What’s it matter anyway, we’ll end up with Brad Scott and more supporters will not bother caring.
They won’t help themselves so why should we care?
Club is better off being run by the members for free than frauds paying themselves $200k a year.

I thought he looked defeated the whole game. Was not his usual in box demeanor.

I'm telling you now, if they appoint that fucker Scott, I will be giving him a harder time than you guys ever gave Richo.

Agreed. Scott (if appointed) gets one year to improve us, otherwise he’ll cop it worse from more people including myself if that’s even possible!!!

he's been done for months
but he aint going anywhere till the end of the season

to demand that he does sooner is to cost the club a lot of dough
sucks, but that's the way it is

whoever consented to this arrangement should be shown the door as well

Good. And why wouldn't you? If Scott takes on the job so that we can rebuild all over again, we might as well appoint David Teague

Sack him now and give Ratten some time as an interim coach then maybe he pulls a Solskjaer and secures the gig.


This was my father's belief
And this is also mine:
Let the corn be all one sheaf--
And the grapes be all one vine,
Ere our children's teeth are set on edge
By bitter bread and wine.

If only Richo wasn’t the coach, we’d have been contending otherwise.

Would have won tonight if Ratten was coach I reckon

Lethers oversaw the review that came to the conclusion we shouldn't sack Richo at the end of last year. He then hired a crony with no AFL experience as our list manager. He led the charge on bringing in a broken down old Dan Hannebery. He supposedly overruled our newly appointed national recruiting manager on our first round pick. We tried to trade what is currently pick four (and may end up as high as pick two) for Jye Caldwell, who had barely played for two years because of injuries. We picked a player with a chronic back problem with our second pick. The rest of our draft was overagers.

Now it looks like Lethers is trying to replace our current underwhelming coach with a mate who has overseen a decade of disappointment at Arden Street. For some reason we're trying to replace Marshall, one of the only positives in this ongoing nightmare, with another ageing player likely past his prime and/or an injured zero gamer. We also go into this years draft with no second or third round picks. As of right now, we have pick four followed by pick 55. This is on a team that infamously lacks top end talent. We're supposedly throwing out massive contracts at big names with no takers.

We seem to be behaving as though we believe we're a club that's not that far off finals, when all evidence points to the contrary. I'd be completely in favour of tearing things down and starting again. We never properly rebuilt after the Lyon era team came crashing back to earth. That means more lean years, but I don't think that's avoidable. If we go the Brad Scott/Todd Goldstein route, we may be able to scratch together some 8-10 win seasons before crashing again and needing a rebuild. Might as well do it now. I've seen nothing from Simon to suggest he's so inclined. Personally, I think he's trying to quick-fix the club so he can get poached into the role he really wants.


Yeah nah pleasing positive
