Needed Balmey on board to join all the dots , dont over play his role ober 5-6 other factors that shaped our. 2017 campaign , it’s patently absurd
Balmey coming on board
New recruits Nank , Prestia and caddy
Leppa inventing the small forward line
Emma Murray helping dusty find his nirvana and threading the group together
Dimma and cotch leadership
Caracella and his ball movement
That’s some perspective on the recipe for a resurgent Richmond FC
I will ask Balmey @ Club80 on the 20th
Reports that they have offered big money that we won’t match. Surely we don’t have to match anything with a contract in place. There must be more to this move.This is his reponse. Credit to him for getting back to me.
Yes, he was contracted for next year (signed two-year deal in October 2018) but Richmond agreed to let him go.
My understanding is that clubs usually don't stand in the way of assistant coaches leaving to further their careers.

yep. And forcing someone to stay against their will because they signed a contract generally doesn't give you good results.
Yep left for the money and perhaps the senior gig knowing dimma aint moving.

I reckon we should get knights, offence was he strength at the bombers when we was coach, so dimma on defence and kinghts on offence should be a good balance.I think Bombers asked Rutten why they weren't playing like Richmond yet and he said...ummm.....aaah..... Holler for a Caracella!!
Super big loss. Shouldn't affect our established players and game style short tomid term but going forward we will be back to using templates (off someone else's laptops) rather than creating our own unless we find a like for like which will be difficult.
As everyone at the club understands for all his strengths at culture and player management, Dimma don't do offence very well.
