Graham has signed a 2yr deal and will be a good adition to the tigers back line
The only way that the Tigers and Graham could do that is if they guarantee to use pick one in the PSD for him and I don't think this would be the case. Perhaps you'd like to rethink your post.

Just spoke to a friend of a friend of a friend :rolleyes: who knows Mark, and his response was,

"tell that dikweed he must be on some serious drugs.... WHY WOULD I WANT TO PLAY FOR RICHMOND!!!" :eek:

He suggested that he would rather take the 2 year offer from Northcote Park that was on the table. :p

The Tigers will definitely pick up several recycled players again. Its been well documented that key backmen are probably the biggest area of concern at the club right now. Graham had a great year last year and would boost a troubled area for the Tiges, if only for a very short time.
8 or more picks in the ND will put plenty of young talent at Punt Rd but they'll need time. The fans will want a competitive team in 2005 though, and that means taking a punt on the likes of Graham and maybe even McGough or Spriggs.

Yep,I can see that being a commonly used jibe over the summer unfortunately.

Dissapointing move by Richmond.Hopefully at least he's on minimum wage.

Wait, didn't you just win the Wooden Spoon with a list older than many other sides in the competition, including St Kilda and Geelong, who both finished top 4, and Collingwood who were in the previous 2 Grand Finals? Sure you have early picks, but I wouldn't call Richmond a "great young list" yet. You have pull yourselves off the bottom of the ladder before you can be called "great" in any fashion.

No need to read on.

You just won the wooden spoon. Your list is tripe.
And yours would be? We deserved the spoon and we'll wear that for now.
TW had a look at your list and said Richmond's was better. Richmond have reached the bottom and will climb from there. Hawks still have more of a downhill slope - spooners in 2005 for sure.
Your best players have had their day - Crawford, Everit, Holland (ha ha!) You should have judd on your list but you missed him. Hodge looks reasonable but hardly capable of being a game breaker. Your vice Captain just left and the Management and Hawthorn run by Dermie and that other moron is a shambles.
I don't think you're in a position to be talking about crap lists.

As for the Geelong supporter putting his 2 cents in - Why are the Cats acting like they won the flag - they're a long way off and I doubt that getting the overated lazy Ottens is going to help.
St.Kilda, Port and Brisy are miles ahead of every other team. Geelong are mearly in the pack with the others. 2005 = reality check for Geelong.
