I would have liked him to be retained but his a big time stoner and thats probably why his endurance sucks. If whoever grabs him can get him off the pot, he will be a star

you think cupido's biggest reason for being cut is for being a stoner, but you are chasing campo, who has more speed these days in the flap of his wallet, than in his legs?
 
will, if anyone remembers the laurence angwin story in the age mid year. he stated that a player at the club told him he can get him "whatever he wanted" ... well, he aint there no more. i think thats why essendon delisted Zantuck, didnt want to have a drug war at windy hill

I'd be very, very careful throwing those accusations around. Especially when you are doing so without any fact.
 
cupido, zantuck and haynes have all been poached by eddie - he is involved in a local B grade club in the EDFL and they have signed to play with his club roxburg park, that should b a fair side and im sure it would be a big budget to land all three of them

I said I wanted to keep him if he could dedicate to his game. I dont mind what they are on as long as they play good. Campos worth the punt, we wont lose anything. An outsider runner might be what we need. Hell if we keep Murphy we will have two.

For all the supporters who argued a case for keeping Cupido, please read the thread Re: Cupido on the Richmond board & let me know what you think...
Interesting read.

Um...hate to break it to you, but that story was fictional.

You guys have convinced me that he has a bad attitude.

But SURELY you have to keep him over murphy and Henneman.

Hes got a bad attitude but he makes up with it in talent.

Sort of the same thing at Carlton, with Norman, great player but the head wasnt there.
 
bad attitude in players can spread like a disease, cupido had 3 seasons to prove his worth at essendon and only proved he had ability in his first, which funnily enough came after being delisted by the premeiers brisbane lions.

There are lots of talented players that have been delisted because they do not have the work ethic, i can never understand why players become arrogant after half a good season. They are presented oppurtunities to earn 4 times the wage an average hard working citizen will earn.

I would taken henneman over cupido 10 times out of 10 because he is going to apply himself even if he doesn't have the talent. 3 years ago I would never have said this, i thought cupido was a great pick up. Sydney proved that talent is not the only thing that makes a sucessfull football team.

I agree if Matthews and Sheedy cannot turn this guys fortunes around who will?
 
We have a super coach who is also an ambassador to the game, a great former captain who is not only courageous but selfless n apart from what the rest of the competition thinks, a professional captain in lloydy...if stupido couldnt take a leaf out of any of those books....he doesnt even deserve the page his profile is on, on the bomber's site. Thanks for the 39 goals in 03!
By the way, hope we pick up that big unit that is Splaanderman from the lions....definitely worth a punt!
 
All the people saying Cupido should not have gone before Henno and Bolts are forgetting one thing. Team balance!! Yes Cupido and a few others are much more skillfull but who is going to play in defence if we get injuries?? If Ted Richards wanted to stay things may have been different, the same with Allen as there would not have been a need for a back up ruck (which Henno has done). It is very simple , you can not go into a season and have the only 3 or 4 190cm plus backman in your best 22 and have nothing left after that.
 
Over rated bad attitude, given the number 13 to early. Did well when we have been 10 goals up which aaint that often. Has about as much ticker as road kill :thumbsdown:

Did you realise you can actually edit your posts? :)

Given the number 13 to early? What if it had gone the other way, you'd have praised the decision. When we first got him, most of us, including myself, thought he was going to be very very good. Okay, so he wasn't. So what? 13 is just a number anyway, with a bit of history behind it.

Give me Andy Lovett anyday before both of them.
