List Mgmt. Treloar officially nominates Pies as his pref club (Mods: please use this thread for all AT posts)

He didn't show up? That's hilarious in itself.

I think he'll be extra gutted this year for 2 reasons.

1) 3rd 1st week exit in a row
2) Deep down, many Richmond supporters would know that this year was their best shot. They have great records against Freo, Hawthorn and Sydney who are all old and on the way down. From next year onwards, there'll be a new crop of younger sides coming up who Richmond don't have the wood over.

They'll be thereabouts for the next couple of years or so but doubt they'll get it done with this lot. They basically have the non-Grand Final version of the Collywobbles now, which takes many years to shake.

After how lippy Richmond supporters have been about Collingwood over the last month or so I took great delight in yesterday

Oh yes, I've never copped abuse at a game like I have at the round 21 game against them.

After the siren the tigers players almost did a lap of honour high fiving the fans on the fence. I turned to my Richmond supporting mate and said sarcastically "congrats on winning the grand final". Supporters were singing their song a good half hour after the final siren went.

This will hopefully shut them up for the whole of next season, but knowing Richmond supporters probably not.

Richmond are very similar to NM. A good average side, inconsistent, but really, not a great threat for a flag. Both teams might finish 5-8th again next year and at best, Richmond might actually win a final.

I think Richmond could win a premiership in the next 1-3 years. Not an old side. Have some good young talent coming through. At the moment they are mid table in terms of experience. Hawks, Swans, North and Freo will drop off due to their stars being old.

Whoa. Now is NOT the time for any optimism towards Richmond!

Doggies will overtake them by this time next year if thy aren't already ahead atm. Giants could be on par with them next season and have much more improvement, same with us.
So you are right in saying they may catch the teams infront of them but will they stay ahead of the teams just behind them who imo have much more room for growth

I think they're no chance. Shallow list, their A graders go missing too often, nobody to replace Maric, weak back 6 other than Rance.

I think the Dogs, Eagles, Giants, Power and hopefully us will have the next sustained period at the top... But things change quickly so who knows.

Meh. Not sold. This year was probably the best shot they were going to get. The dominant sides of the year were sides Richmond never have trouble with and they officially became umpire's pets this year. Let's not forget how many games they won simply through abnormally accurate kicking for goal while their opponents kicked like crap.

Basically, everything that could have gone right for Richmond this year, did. Despite that, they didn't make top 4 and got knocked out of the finals first week. We already already have all but 100% confirmation that two young mids linked to them have instead opted to come to Collingwood.

I'm not seeing the rosy outlook here. While expect them to be in finals for a couple years more, I"m not seeing a flag in this group.

Not with the current crop. They need to trade in for elite quality to get them to the next level. And Maric got 2 seasons left max.
They have failed so far at the trade table to get those players that make them to genuine contenders . If indeed we get what they want.
Next year list won't be good enough to go all the way by just getting Yarran. Unless they get Danger, within past 2 weeks this and next years chances have evaporated; they got reasons to be worried.
Maybe in 2 yrs time but others will be on the rise too.

Their bottom 6 players are very ordinary. Their leaders are downhill skiers. No toughness and a real lack of leadership. They won't make a prelim with this current group. They need a rebuild

Us, Dogs, GWS and possibly GC will go past them. They would have some serious mental scaring after that game

You're right. Next year could be the year to pinch one with most sides up the ladder coming down. Hawks, Swans and Freo will be worse next year. West Coast will come off a bit as well I think. Maybe Ports year next year.

Houli goes alright.

They've locked themselves in early with a name synonymous with Essendon, and to a lesser extent Richmond if count his playing days.

Back yourself in to become a richly storied club and choose a name in a few years, surely. Just call it the best and fairest until then.

Or perhaps they'll just wait a few years for the senility to really kick in, then rename the B&F without Sheeds even noticing.

The club's got plans to call it after our first Brownlow Medalist or Premiership Captain - which ever comes first.

It's why we made Sheedy a Life Member on his departure.

Robbo on AFL 360 right now exhorting Richmond to go after Treloar and rip him away from us. Please stop Robbo. Just stop.

KB would love this.

I thought Robbo loved Loyailty

We dont have Treloar yet Dave, so no loyalty issue from our point of view.

He's right though. The Tuggers would be stupid to give up now.

hmmm, so the "Heath Shaw GWS best and fairest medal" - has a nice ring to it.

Well Treloar Character be Bashed after he Pubicly Committed to Collingwood.

I say Robbo just trying to Stir Up Trouble so he can have something to Write about it.

What did Wheatley say about it?

He has made a Announcement and I say Tigers would go after someone else like Yarran or Bennell

Treloar has already notified Richmond and advised them thanks but no thanks. If his mind is made up and has informed Pies that's where he wants to play then that's where he will end up. If it has to be we trade our 2 1st round picks in this and next year's Draft then that's what it will take if Witts refusing to move. Richmond PO and worry about Yarrow!

TD, I dont recall what Wheatley said. Therein lies the peril of posting on BF - not concentrating on what happened next - was too outraged and had to post!

Robbo hates Collingwood and I guess this mean more Viewers for 360 and More Readers for HS tomorrow

I think he'll be happy just to have a bar named after him.

People actually pay attention to Slobbo?
