caro to the bombers?

Actually nah stuff you all, we shall flood the markets with all things richmond.

I went to woodman point with the family on sunday, there was a pasty white shockingly overweight teenager there who wrapt himself up with a magnificent richmond beach towel, looks like patrick's defection has already spread to the wider community.

Go tiges :thumbsu:
lmao..
 
So it is time to follow Richmond. An old Bomber, Damien Hardwick, is coach and he appears a man prepared to stand firmly by his beliefs. The club, too, has adopted a philosophy of excellence in everything. It has set itself a daunting standard and will trip up from time to time. But if it is not wilful but a mis-calculation then it loses no ground.

Good luck Tigers. We will be watching with interest. And respect...
:rolleyes:

Always liked Patrick. A very good journo.
Regardless of whether I agreed with what he said - he always speaks his mind and doesn't pull punches and bow to AFL house - unlike the sometimes puppet Mike Sheehan, the agenda driven Damien Barret and the delussional Robert Walls.
 
This pre season keeps getting better and better. Could you take Conelly of our hands also? :D:thumbsu:

Who knew Patrick had morals and ethics. Respect. :thumbsu:

Meh, not fussed with him coming on board and buying a membership, but respect him for not sticking with a club that conducts itself like the Bombers have done recently.....I personally could never leave Richmond, but if it ever conducted itself in such ways I would lose a massive amount of respect for the club and the people in charge at that point of time. Good to see we have good people at our club though.

Also interested to see if the last straw for Patrick isn't the revelation of bigger breaking news coming out of Windy Hill/Tullamarine or wherever this nomad club will end up........!

Could be that Bomber has influenced Jimmy in more than just coaching......;) :D

At least patrick has the courage to call it as he sees it...

....'A winter of arrogant manipulation by Essendon'.....from his article...

Where the essendon admin lied to the GFC by saying they were not talking to B.Thompson and seeking him as coach...

Where the essendon admin lied and manipulated matty knights by letting him think his job was only to be reviewed at seasons end and setting him up as the fall guy for their incompetence...

Where the essendon admin lied to the media by denying they were after hird and thompson...for weeks on end...

Where the essendon admin lied to their members/supporters and football players, coporate supporters by not revealing their true feelings concerning matty knights tenure as coach...

The essendon admin humiliated k.sheedy with his inept removal...and now they have followed up that sheedy ignominy with a full public excoriation of matty knights...he alone was left to carry the can for the supporters anger, players frustrations and sponsorship rumblings...the silence from that essendon board was and still is deafening...

May well you say that this....'pre season gets better and better'...

Cos in 9 months time when matty knights is then able to speak out about these sordid events...

Guess who will be in line to hear what he has to say! lol...good old patrick smith with his note pad and biro/recorder...

Hopefully we will get to hear all about the devious machinations concerning the essendon admin and matty...all the sordid juicy details...

And by then you may well wish the pre season had never started...;)...


Ps...To have a 'golden boy' you need a 'fall guy' and the essendon admin made sure of that....
 
I suppose we have to stop calling him Fatprick Smith from now on, He did a ripper article yesterday too.

And JAKLAUGHING much better font :thumbsu:
 
Whilst l'm glad he rubs shit in the nose of the EFC and the AFL, l deplore what he's done.

I encourage those that dont agree with things to speak their mind and try to educate others, but **** that is a shit and petchulent way of dealing with your issues.

And to be honest... it pisses me off that he's brought us into it. Pisses me off. We dont want the attention of being placed on some moral high ground or being compared to those he feels are dis-ingenuous.

Poor form, thanks but no thanks.

Couldn't agree more Wally, real guts and principles would mean staying and taking on the people he thinks have hi-jacked HIS club and are taking it in a direction he doesn't approve of.

Can't knock the $ for the membership, LOL...perhaps he's hedging his bets and eventually he'll give his 'loyalties' to the grand daddy of all ex-bombers - Sheedy at GWS when they start getting success. ;)

The RFC would be livered to see that article. Seriously, the mere thought of being associated with what "Patrick Smith" thinks is right and wrong, will **** them off. He's a journalist, who's made his living off being a filthy untrustworthy swine.

Richmond wont be patting themselves on the back for a second and they certainly wont be judging Essendon on moral behaviour.

If PS wants to support for RFC, fine. But where does he get off flogging his own alliances and using the print media to tell everyone who is barracking for now.

Pathetic if you ask me. RFC dont need him in the back pocket, just continue to go about its business without anyone pissing in our pockets.
