PUNT ROAD END | Richmond Tigers Forum

If you want to tank for picks and play kids on the basis of age rather than form you're asking for trouble. I'm disgusted at a loser mentality that's happy to see our kids flogged rather than have them come though the ranks and be played on merit. I'm not just referring to today's game either. Losing seeps through the fabric of the club and if spots are gifted, rather than earned, there isn't the same honour and respect for the jumper. Our future generation have been given a pretty clear message recently that losing is acceptable if everything possible to avoid it isn't done. We need to develop a winning culture, a culture where losing simply isn't acceptable. Geez I hope the process finally churns out a decent coach, a ruthless coach who does everything he can to win every game we play in.
