New Saints president meets under-fire Richo

Alan Richardson has been under pressure after St Kilda's disappointing season

ST KILDA coach Alan Richardson has caught up with incoming president Andrew Bassat for the first time since last week's handover.

While Bassat won't officially take the reins until December's annual general meeting, he symbolically took control when he fronted a joint press conference last week alongside outgoing president Peter Summers.

SEASON REVIEW Saints' year of woe

The Saints confirmed to AFL.com.au that Richardson met for coffee with the president-designate at a Moorabbin cafe on Monday morning.

While it's not known what was discussed, it is a sign of 'business as usual' at St Kilda despite a weekend of rumblings within the industry about the Richardson's future.

It followed Bassat's less-than-convincing attempt to shut down speculation about Richardson's future when he said it was 'highly unlikely' there'd be any change in senior coach for 2019.

It's believed Bassat now wishes he had been more emphatic.

Speculation of a board meeting on Monday didn't amount to anything at the time of writing, with the informal catch-up between Bassat and Richardson seen simply as an opportunity for the pair ensure they're both on the same page in the coming weeks.

Richardson has coached 110 games at St Kilda for 37 wins, 71 losses and two draws. The team has failed to reach the finals in his five-year tenure.

The 53-year-old remains contracted for next season, but will be joined by a new-look coaching panel.

Former Blues coach Brett Ratten is set to join the Saints after Hawthorn's finals campaign ends, but his exact position in the coaches' box hasn't been announced.

 

[Sir Skid]

I just vomited over my telly

 

[triggering bro]

Maybe everyone knows except Cho?

Strange

 

[Sir Skid]

Maybe everyone knows except Cho?

Strange

Weird eh

 

[NotITK]

That’s just deflating, I know you have to take things for a grain of salt, but jeez, just the thought of another year with him is just deflating and makes me zero motivated for next year

 

[Connorn99]

Richo is a very good man

 

[Pakenhamsaint]

This is all very strange.

 

[Connorn99]

I still want him out

 

[bird_man]

Maybe everyone knows except Cho?

Strange

Or maybe there is actually nothing happening?

Which would be stranger

Wow that was so awkward when Robbo was talking about social media and how he's getting messages saying the players have turned on him and he's getting sacked

Is that the same Matt Thompson who used to be on SEN?
A Knob Jockey of the highest order!
Proof that if you crawl up one's arse far enough

BT just said that if Roo comes onto the board then Richo is gone. Bassett has said he would love Roo to be involved in the club. Can’t help but feel Richo is delusional & ignorant.
