Attention : Terry Wallace

Please Terry - watch the Essendon game and then ring me and tell me about the next 5 year plan ???

The way we have recruited over his reign,you would expect our game plan to be like Essendons run run run,but we handball backwards,backwards then chip kick 20 mtrs to a midget,turn over, opposition goal
 
Cousins was the only positive thing to come from the game. The only guy in the side who had any skill. And he only played half the game.
 
Was this your game plan today Terry?

1. handball to anyone you see
2. They handball it back to you
3. then you handball it to someone else.
4. they kick it 30m backwards
5. Then handball backwards to a bloke standing still with a couple of opponents surrounding him
6. Now run through the middle and roost the ball high up in the air to the littlest bloke you can see.

Thats how it seemed. Couldve been the worst performance I have ever seen. Salvage some credibility and walk away Tez.
 
Has Terry lost the players? Is his message losing its effect? Have the players lost all faith in the gameplan and themselves?

If yes to any or all of these then TW has to go for the sake of the club and current players. They are shattered, can't play footy and it is destroying everyone who supports the club.

I have been told that if the club gets to 1-8 or 1-9 and spirit is gone, then something will happen.
 
According to his Press Conference today, Terry has only just found out that we have a lot of players with poor skills/decision making. We are apparently going to cull our list and replace them with skilled players. That's funny, I'm sure you said that when you were initially appointed. I'm sure you reiterated that during your 1st,2nd,3rd,4th and now 5th and final year. Problem is Terry, YOU keep picking them to play. YOU are the one responsible for accepting the current player standards. YOU are the one who develops and maintains Game Plans. YOU are responsible if the Game Plan doesn't work. YOU are the one who alters Game Plans as a result of injuries or an opposition player running hot. YOU are the one who has to adapt the Gameplan to suit the players that we have. No matter how you look at it Terry, you are mainly responsible for the RFC being 1-6 and going backwards. I am sick of your spin, pointless stats and passing the buck.
 
And the worst thing about being the worst team in the competition is that even if we finish bottom, Melbourne will probably only win 4 games and get the priority draft pick. So Richmond could finish last 2 out of the 3 last seasons and have not received a priority draft pick which both the Blues & the Dees will gain this benefit. Go figure!

I'm not sure which game gutted me the most, losing to Melbourne or today. The one thing that it did confirm for me is that we are far and away the worst side in the competition at the moment. Thats the truth that hurts the most.
 
for one of the first times in my life today while the tigers were playing, i really couldnt give a stuff what was going on. (wasnt at the game), normally if i cant make it i try to listen or get sms updates or whatever but today i really couldnt care and it felt great. at 6ish when i heard we lost it was a weird feeling.

because i couldnt really give a stuff

but why 6 hours later am i now angry that i barrack for a weak inspid excuse for a football club?


p.s i enjoyed watching an ORIDNARy Essendon play last night,. go knighter

the brand is mediocrity

is it mediocrity now? if you're mediocre at something aren't you still 'ok' at it. We are absolute garbage, it's embarrassing now, it's depressing now, Terry it's time to go NOW!!!! At least if sheeds took over for 12-15 weeks then we could perhaps get some dignity and maybe a thread of respect from other clubs and supporters. I work with an Essendon supporter who was going through the fixture and seeing that they're playing us 'well that will be a win' any other year I'd think 'yeah buddy well don't be so sure' now there's nothing surer than an Essendon win. They will smash us and make us look 3rd rate. It won't be dreamtime at the G for us.... it will be nightmare at the G.
 
i use to enjoy it more in the early 90's. we were so bloody hopless.
but geez the guys really put in even when they got done by 10 goals.

SO SO TRUE! :clap :clap :clap

I've always said (especially when the anti Richo clan get out the knives) that I can handle losing, I don't even particularly give a stuff about a premiership....all I want is a team full of guys that have a rip roaring go (just like Richo).
If we still lose, cos we're just not good enough, then so be it.

I want a team worth barracking for!

Wallace and the rest of the coaching staff are hurting the Richmond brand.

You can't blame Wallace & Co. for what has been tarnished for many years before him. Just as he & the team looked as if it was about to come out of the quagmire back in 2005 it quickly sank back in.

A few positives the Richmond brand can hold it's head up to, is selling newspapers, and the telecommunication companies having racked up revenue from Richmond ferals ringing up talkback radio.
