Can l just say l never thought ld agree with Gill on anything….but to see him come out and Whack Chris Scott, Whack Ross Lyon and basically tell media and on line muppets to shut the F$$#@ up coz the have no idea with the drivel they are spewing was absolutely AMAZING …..And yes 🕷 I’ll happily buy him an ale at the bool too…never in all my years would l think he’d be capable of defending my / our club……what a glorious bit of tv that was

who played until 2016.

That is 19 years worth of player career at a club because of a single priority pick. This is just one example.

Deledio is another.
Traded to GWS, then picks ontraded to Brisbane which the picks coming back were used to select Noah Balta

(and CCJ) So Deledio is retired but the effect of his priority pick is still within Richmond's list.

The point here is Whatever we do with these picks if we don't f*** it up we could wind up with a couple of decade worth of value from them.

Over to you Viney.

has been the beneficiary of a few things including father son. Does this rule need to change too? Scott and Lyon are saying it’s not fair because they are rivals and wouldn’t expect anything else of them. "

Reckon Lethal still has a soft spot for us (boyhood club).

Gill looks at Robbo like he is a fukcwit

Wouldn't you too?

 

[domiroo]

Wouldn't you too?

He is …

 

[Shermanator]

Slobbo was absolutely filthy that Geraldo snuck off with Gill and the cool kids to party on after the Chas last night (probably in the Crown Penthouse) and left him on the Craps table with the battlers..

Geraldo is like a fanboi when Gill is in the house, just mesmerised with his every word… ****en nerd turd..

 

[Horace]

I don’t know what to feel. He totally slammed Scott and Lyon for their ridiculous hypocrisy

….but called us the worst team ever to slam home his point.

A bit harsh Gil

Without doing the research, from a win/loss perspective, I seem to recall reading that (sadly) our record since 2019 is the worst record in history. As an old Royboy, I can't recall as many consecutive years as this in Fitzroy's history, and oh boy, there were some terrible times.

who leaves as an unrestricted free agent who becomes pick 57, which is used in the trade between Brisbane and Collingwood which nets Beams and some other picks.

Those other picks are used to pay for Quaynor.

So a priority pick in the year 2000 helped attain the value for a 2023 AA.

Gosh this list that’s being made just keeps growing…….and it’s amazing….bunch of hypocrites

It just goes to show what a brilliant person he has been as CEO. Miles better than AD and has has a heap of crises on his watch. Andrew Dillon does not have the charisma which carries Gill through dramas and he still has the gravitas to put people like Gerard and Robbo in their place.

Why are they going the last decade?!

When has a decade ever been a consideration for PP’s?

Gill‘s answer, “oh it was pretty high”

 

[Scallop Industry Thug]

Not one mention of the compromised top of the draft over the last 4 years in that segment.

Kane's too busy basting his hog to topless pictures of Chad to do a modicum of research.

Because 10 years suits the narrative better than 2019-20-21-22

I think in certain stats (ie number of losses over 4-5 years by over 100 points) the Melbourne and Carlton sides probably were worse, but that's about it. Average losing margins and total games won, it's us (even after a more competitive year). West Coast are giving it a fair shake too

 

[Samsquanch]

Just shows what a small, sycophantic, bully Whateley is.

Huffs and puffs and sermonises with his faux intelligent gravitas at every opportunity. Allowed Scott and Lyon to rant with no resistance or fact checking last night.

But then when Gil came in and clearly and calmly explained the AFL's reasoning and rational, didn't offer a peep, even when given multiple opportunities by Gil to debate whether or not it was too much, said absolutely nothing and then changed the topic.

Sees himself as the self appointed moral compass of nearly every issue, but when he doesn't get to control the direction of the debate, ends it and moves on to something else, weak pr!ck!

Even whatley knows better than to shit in the trough that he eats from.

 

[grimface_87]

Hilarious how the narrative now changes to "well North haven't actually been that bad" after years of articles like this: ‘One of the worst teams in the AFL era’: Cornes’ brutal take on bottom-ranked Roos
