Resources

[froars]

For the same reason I won't bag Wallace, I'm not going to bag Miller like some have.
Do you think that if Miller and our recruiting department had all the resources other clubs have, we could improve our list.
Stuff this idea of having a special group to fund a rookie, what we should be doing is having a fund to get better recruiters in every state.
I'm sure we'd get the spies if we could pay them, and better recruiting results.
Miller and Jackson can't be at every junior footy game around the country - it's just an impossible ask.
I'd rather put my hard earned into this area.

Discuss!

The off-field side to the RFC is the cornerstone to future success. I'm sure with greater fiscal results and an increase in revenue streams, our various football departments will also get a boost. It is the reason we have been in such a poor state of affairs on field for the past 25 years.

agree.
a large part of the off feild area is in getting an effeoctive footy dept with nous that can recruit the right players and then the coaching staff that can give them an education to reach the highest level. both these areas have been lacking in the last 20 yrs.
money buys the right people who should have the pedigree to make the correct decisions. jury out on wallace but he has brought the best he could wish for-time-to get it right. as we continue to build our financial resources in the next year we require on feild success in wallace's and millers fourth year toghether. lets revisit this at the end of 2008.

the reason these 2 gooses cop it is because all the money is going in their pockets, maybe if it wasnt then some of your wishes could happen but at the moment just these 2 guys are getting $1 million a year and our recruiting/development etc is for the tip

ya see this is where crazy john come into it.....

this guy could really fix our problems, i dont care if people think he would only be useing our club as a marketing and publicity stunt!(he has a business to run and i respect that.)

He is a Tiger man through and through and would pour millions into our club to see us be successful again.

we could have recruiters in every state and he could attract plenty of sponsors for us.

we need to develope our recruiting and also the way our draftees are brought into AFL life and all that revolves around money im afraid.

Rich people don't get rich by spending their own money. He's using the RFC for publicty. The guy is just an attention seeker.

Maybe we just need to find another politician as corrupt as Paul Lennon, then all our woes would disappear.
