At least l'm consistent. Pick up the tissues mate, you've made a mess over nothing.
Jury's out. 5 out of 6 of our draftees are discards. And we bring in Aaron Davey, Max Bailley and Andrew McQualter.
Interesting off season.

Coaches have to start somewhere mate. I back in the RFC to find coaching talent as well.
Also, great players don't always make great coaches and vice versa.

Davey is only playing VFL, Bailey is only a coach in the VFL and Mcqualter is a playing coach for the VFL....they rnt on the senior or rookie list at all.At least l'm consistent. Pick up the tissues mate, you've made a mess over nothing.

McQualter said it is unlikely he will play very often.

Very nice pick up. Comes in as another development coach/mentor/VFL top up player. Will no doubt be valuable in the development of the small/medium forwards that we brought in in recent years. At a fraction of the cost that someone like Chapman would have cost and without taking up a senior list spot for 2 years either.
- if he under-achieved, it's as much to do with a series of serious injuries (including a leg break) as anything. Yes, he lost a yard along the way, and was never (quite) the same as the Flash of old.
- in 4 years he's had 4 coaches including a couple of stand-ins, so not sure who you're referring to. If it's the Mifsud affair, that wasn't Davey: you're half-right, there was some white-anting, but it wasn't from any of the players, it was from a staff member who didn't take kindly to being sacked.
- as to what he'll add, that's for your footy dept. to decide, but he was a popular guy with his head screwed on, and who takes himself seriously as a mentor and role model.

Good to see with all the off field effort to support Young aboriginals, that we will actually have some more representation on field

Well done, Aaron. All the best! (I wonder if his brother will join him?)

time to return the traditional Richmond yellow

Woenamirri is the rumour on titter
We'd have to hire out Goschs Paddock to leave him during the week.
Shane Edwards. That's it.
Good score to get Davey. Another good reason to attend our VFL matches - in terms of cost & convenience vs entertainment, I might just prefer watching our reserves next year with its mixture of mature talent and developing players. Its just a pity we don't have more indigenous senior-list players, he would be a great influence and support.
Perfect time to sound out Wilson for a move to Victoria and under the watchful eye of Davey and Richmond for 12 months
Sounds like another generation next coaching placement by the tigers and may finally help us with our problems with Indigenous players coming through.
Another really strong advantage of having our own VFL team is developing younger coaches, and having them being able to easily interact with both the VFL and AFL sides at punt road. Bailey, Clark, McQualter and now Davey (if he is a development coach like it sounds he is) will be with the younger boys at every single stage instead of losing touch a bit when they are at coburg.
He will also have a coaching and mentoring role with the VFL team, working closely with the club's indigenous players.
This made me laugh
One on one sessions for Edwards all seasons
I think a TAC cup team will be playing out of the institute soon. I'm guessing Davey will have a big hand in that.
Hahaha vfl players and coaches who did u want us to get , maybe Roos would have accepted a playing coach role at vfl level

Our VFL team is better then St. Kilda
And the Giants and despite some good additions on paper Melbourne will likely implode as usual.
Rational, critical thinking and robust debate?
Noooooooooooooo......................not a chance.
The mentoring part is referring to his role at the Korin Gamadji Institute. Though you may have already known that, can't tell if you were simply taking the piss or not.
How can people not like this? For gods sake

Helping indigenous or not, you will benefit a lot from having Davey there, both on and off the field. I wish him the best of luck.

Dunno, I think St Kilda recruited well this year. Demons is probably my tip for the spoon this year, not sure what they are aiming for in 2014 either!
