Man..............why do we have such a bad record of drafting and trading for players....its atrocious

Man..............why do we have such a bad record of drafting and trading for players....its atrocious

Because until Miller, nobody, I mean nobody, had a flippin idea. When we got a half decent player, it was by pure luck. Look at our form in the draft. How many of our first picks, have gone on and done anything.

For to long, to many people in the footy dept, have been paid for skills they haven't got. For example, if we the mug punter in the outer can see these blokes are no good, why can't the coaching STAFF. Do they watch the game with their eyes shut ( We know T.Jewell did)?

 

[madtiger]

What about Stephen Jurica? man he sucked

 

[madtiger]

Nah no chance of that, the only player I follow is Steven McKee and I will follow him no matter what team he plays for even if he goes back to Myrtleford I will intend to follow him, because I believe in him...

He is a great player beyond what anyone give him credit for and he is a great person and I live to spread the world of the wonderful person that I know.

And besides..... McKee was never delisted from Richmond, he chose to leave to get better opportunities.

What chasing coin???

 

[Weaver]

man.......we have the worst trading/drafting period over the last 7 years.

You could put a team like that together for all teams though.

D. Metropolis, T.Carroll, G.Harding
A.Donnelly, D.Antonowicz, K.Green
J.Crabb, M.Merenda, J.Humm
D.Haynes, S.Cummings, C.Rintoul
M.Collica, T.Wilson, M.O'Brien
D.Sierakowski, P.Read, M.Prior
K.Munro, L.Bellotti, D.Adkins, B.Hill

... and the Eagles are destined for a grand final in most people's minds. It is the nature of a draft system that more than half will be duds.

 

[therupy27]

i no these guts are a little bit past the five years but do the names Jamie Elliot, Todd Breman and Mark Mcqueen send chills down anyone elses spins

 

[Rodney Dangerfield]

Wayne Hernaman and Todd Menegola were good players back in the day.

 

[jake]

Belated LMAO @ this thread.

LMAO @ Steve McKee helping this person in deep depression and getting deep throat in exchange.

LMAOOOO @ Luscious Wayne.

LMAOOOO @ the change of heart from the stalker "he was the ONLY person that made me feel like life was worth living. I would NEVER be the person I am today without him and I owe him the world" to "Myrtleford! ******** I'm not going down to Myrtleford to watch that dud!"

LMAOOO @ "Steven is far from a dope, he is intellegent" - I suppose he did wait until the stalker was 16 before giving her one.

LMAO @ Collingwood's 2002 success.

LMAO @ Stevie McKee encouraging car accident victims by showing them videos of his football career - proving that having no coordination in your arms and legs does not stop you from having a career as a professional sportsman.

LAFFIN.OoOo

I remember being off my nut for much of this thread.

lmao@McKee being and accident victim predator.

(known for lurking at accident "Black Spots)

 

[froars]

Talk about deja vu - JohnF, Ox and Jakey on one thread doing what they do best lol. Nasty little boys

You can't put James White on that list IMO. Didn't he walk out of the club and quit footy himself? Never got a chance to prove what a dud he was or could have been. Smart too i reckon - i wouldn't want to be associated with that lot either

 

[Darth_Tiger]

he did walk out froars, but then changed his mind came back and played a couple of senior games before being delisted. at least that is how i remember it.

Walked out preseason. Saved Ray Hall's career too, we had to delist one player and it was going to be Ray ... until White chose a quiet life.

 

[Darth_Tiger]

fair enough, i conceed.

 

[Weaver]

fair enough, i conceed.

He might have walked out mid-year as well. Walked out mid-year, get him back down to preseason training, walk's out again. I only remember it because of the Hall angle. It can be a very very fine line between being a 10 year player and a 10 minute player sometimes.

 

[Captain Blood]

That's an atrocious list for so short a period of time!

Another couple of duds that come to mind are Lionel Proctor and Trent Nicholls

Trent Nicholls twice!

 

[Captain Blood]

And the Birdman

 

[PsychoTiger]

Something to pass the time in the off season, and hell why not wallow in our misery? Lets pick the worst 22 players of the last say five years, so that everyone can participate (and also to keep it managable since if we make it longer there will be way too many candidates). i'm happy to be a bit flexible so we can consider anyone from the geishen era onwards. the players nominated have to actually have played in the position (not neccesarily in the seniors) and the more potential tag the player carried the better.

here is my attempt....

The Field of DUDS....

now thats a lot of duds!!!

that's a bit harsh on Fiora..he's not in the worst 22.

There's a longer line for this contest than for the free U2 tickets

 

[Darth_Tiger]

read the whole thread. i never said he was the worst i based the team on unfulfilled potential which before he left richmond he was right up there.

 

[Darth_Tiger]

and still is lol. good old muppet arms.

 

[oxx]

LMAO

Possible duds ended up taking a similar route to this thread didnt it.
All i was trying to do was label afew rookies
