Heard on radio 927, that Richo is definetely leaving Richmond signed and sealed!!! Perhaps there is some truth in the rumour that Brown might be swapped for Richo

Has anyone heard further about the rumour
 
I think all this stuff about leaving and trades is a touch premature, although I'm not quite sure when the draft is.

Richo's got his testimonial coming up on B&F night, don't think he would be doing the walking yet, but he may well be sick of all the speculation.

If he leaves the Tiges, i can't see him going interstate because of his dad not being too well, so doggies might be a go. But who knows - i doubt even the club would know at this stage.

My thoughts on brown IAII is I've been told by a doggies supporter that his aerobic capacity is suspect, hence why he spends a lot of time in the forward line. To pay the money that's been touted, got to be a lot more versatile than that.

I listened to KB on the way to work this morning and i thought i heard him say that he'd be expecting richo to stay right where he is:confused:

Maybe i missed some earlier interview .

How would KB know that? I don't recall him going anywhere near Punt Rd for quite some time.

My problem with Richo going to another club is I'm sure he would start dominating as soon as he left Richmond,
For what his trade currency is worth these days, we would be better off keeping him, besides he is our most marketable player and a Richmond legend

I dont think it was stated as fact lidge but just his considered opinion. And opinion that i would take more note of then some of the crap circulating at the minute.

Man if he is our most marketable player, we have serious, serious problems. And to say he is a legend. What has he done? Played in premierships? Won B/f's? Coleman medals? He is a renowned choker who would fit in nicely at Port.

The best thing the club can do is trade this bum!!!

I'd agree that we do have serious problems,

Although its not Richo's fault he is playing for a team devoid of any logical game plan (hold the ball up and kick to a contest on the wing)

Its hard to win Grand Finals & Colemans when you play for Richmond, I'm sure if he had played for a top 4 team he would be known as a gun player and opposed to what most Richmond supporters call him now,

However my point is, unless we were going to get something good for him we'd be better off keeping him, I mean lets face it when he is firing he is unstoppable (even if that is off a half back flank when Richmond is 96 points down)
If he stays injury free he is still a potent force
 
Richo

I sincerley doubt that we will be trading Richardson. He is having a testomonial night on the same not as the best and fairest, where they will roast him and also show video's of his ten years at the tigers. I would be astounded if the club then turned around 10 days latter and kicked him out the door by trading him to another club, it just wouldn't be good form on the part of the club.
 
I don't care if we trade Richo. I was a big fan of him until this season, but I have turned on him now, but I think there is too much baggage for another club to take him on:

His major attitude problem.
Constant injuries stopping him being of any consistent value to the club.
His constant badgering of younger players is hampering their development.
His demeanor and giving the bird to fans is doing him no favours with supporters.

The guy is a headcase. We are stuck with him. I have heard so many times that he is going to change, but he won't. As entertaining as he is in full flight, I'd rather we didn't have him.
 
Richo......Get Going

Richo...Richo...Richo....
Let Richo go to a hack club and dominate there.......And by my reckoning most forwards(and he's played his career there) have bags of eight throughout their career....see the major forwards of the past 20 years......all get bags, year in, year out......but not our Richo.....Richo's gone......too old to turn it around....that leopard's never gonna change his spots......all althletism and no footy brain!
(When he gets the ball in space.....watch how his brain seizes up......and watch him fumble, stumble and get caught with the ball).....when he has to think he crumbles.

We play better without him.....
Trade him for anyone, he couldn't be a Premiership player with the Eltham Under 12's....
Trade him for Brown....
Trade him for Farmer...
Trade him for the Footy Record Seller outside Gate 8 at the 'G'...
Trade him for a set of steak knives...
Just give the dude a bus pass quick...
Let's start afresh.....

Love the Club
Love the Club Song
Love the Club Colours
Not some trumped up legend....
Legend? ha.
