Roast The Chronicles of Alan Richardson - Part II - Richo Resigns (16/07)

[Percy2257]

Can't argue with that.. Also - members and the media play a huge part in the decision.

The more Rattan is hailed as the savior on social media, the more pressure the board is under.

A win this weekend would nearly secure Rats position, not joking btw..

Haha. Historically St Kilda has proved to be a graveyard for ex Carlton greats. Jezalenko etc. if Ratts becomes the full time coach will history repeat itself?!

 

[BrutThough]

Finnis is about to burst into tears.

 

[Sheepey]

Watching this press conference, Finnis seems more emotional than Richo.

 

[jaza2003]

Awkward to watch

[jaza2003]

I think he was asking the media not to.

 

[Pakenhamsaint]

Even now hes quite humble about it. Understands the reality of it

cool!

 

[BrutThough]

Even now hes quite humble about it. Understands the reality of it

Can leave with his head held high.

 

[Human Person]

You Maniacs! You got him sacked! Damn you! Damn you all to Hell!

 

[VDS66]

can't say I disagree with anything you've said, but nepotism is rife within this club.

Good to see the club is disseminating the wrong info to people like yourself lol.

 

[kernelT]

Good closing presser from richo.

 

[stfan]

Class act by Richo in his Press Conference. Thank you for your efforts at the club.



Poor effort by Finnis talking about Richo's family when Richo had requested him not to.

Yes but only because he will get emotional. But you go for it. Read more into it. Amazing

Speaking of graveyards, how is the Carlton Football Cemetery travelling these days?

I hear a few of your boys have begged Ratts to come back but he gave them the finger...

 

[plugger66]

Both spoke well. Are we allowed to say that. Glad nearly everyone has said the same.

 

[Tom12]

Is Scott taking over next year a done deal??

 

[plugger66]

Anyone finding an excuse to bag just amazes me. Let him leave with respect.

 

[GodSziller]

Finnis is fuming here. Richo definitely wasn’t supposed to take questions.

I guess if you want to credit richo for our draft selections whilst also blame trout for why we are still bottom 4.

We've had 10+ picks in the top 25 since richo arrived and used most of our second rounders in trades, the list should absolutely be better but we are still a bottom 4 side.

I'm on the record as stating that the main cause of our issues pre-date Trout.

You're confusing me with a number of other posters. Trout played it safe but didnt make many absolute stinkers.

Richo started with a list and club in absolute disarray and has now put a reasonable foundation in place. My issue with him is his tactical prowess and ability to implement a game plan that allowed the young talent to develop.

We're a bottom 4 side this year due to the blokes missing and the aforementioned horrible list management of the Lyon era. Unfortunatley for Richo, his performance last year was so poor that he was in the gun this year no matter what the circumstances.

 

[kyrgios]

Can he take our current captain with him out the door?

 

[Mowman]

Yes but only because he will get emotional. But you go for it. Read more into it. Amazing

I thought he said the same thing

 

[Crusty Undies]

Richo conducted himself remarkably well for a guy who just got sacked. Very good exit interview, and I'm a bit more confident in the group having heard his assessment of them too even after leaving.

 

[Mowman]

Gee Finnis took it very hard
