The Blair "Which?" Project

One of my favorite last quarter gut runners. Elite in this area. Quality player who was encouraged by the club to take up an offer we simply couldn't match. He did it to set up himself and his father. A Richmond man through and through...
This year the night before our game V GC he and Dusty wondering along the beach having a chat with a handful of other Richmond players a few meters behind them

now plenty of players on every list will have friends at other clubs , played juniors together , previous club , families are connected etc

we had Higgins do a little trash talking but everyone else seems to 1) go with our blessing 2) they don’t trash the club and 3) retain some level of friendship with people at the club

I’m sure that it must stem from both the people they have gathered within the club and the culture they strive for with the Richmond man stuff

you see little trash talk from our guys on the field and no “over celebrating “ and genuine joy for teammates doing well

I’m hopeful that this culture will see us stay top 8 for a long time , fingers crossed that means some silverware

Until the online era I'd polish off daily The Sun, The Age, The Australian, then the Weekend Editions, Sporting Globes, all sports mags lol.

We had a milk bar until I was 18, so it was easy to fall into that trap!!

If I'd had access to a milk bar in those years I don't reckon I would have gone to the papers first. :cool:

I didn't say I went to the papers first, it was the ice creams!! :p

Funny story, we had the house connected to the back of the shop, so after it closed at 9.30ish, and everyone was inside.

The folks may have asked us to bring some milk, bread, drinks or something from the shop to cook or if visitors were over.

Me and my bro would casually walk to the door, then when inside the shop bolt to the news stand.

Flick through the pages of P***boy and P***thouse.

Run to the fridge, get the drinks or whatever it was we had to get, bolt to the back door.

Casually walk in like nothing happened!! :cool:

We repeat played that many many times aye!! :eyes

Heart Balm was compulsory reading, it was my bible.
Dyer'ere was funny too. The paper had a lot of bs stories even I couldn't believe at that age of naivety.

I stole a Penthouse (covered through The Age) once from a quiet newsagency. Kept on walking 2 blocks home with fear as if everybody was about to capture me. :))

Blair & Matty Clarke on Talking Tigers today, well worth a listen.

Key talls will be the target in the draft.

Apparently it only had 2 very thick pages in it by the time you got home

Our recruiter clearly said that we may redraft a delisted player. I’d be wrapped if Syd came back next year ready to go.
