In an unprecedented move the Richmond Football Club have named their coach to replace Danny Frawley more than a year before his contract expires at the end of season 2004.
In an officially released pre release press release, Greg Miller, Richmond Football Director declared that Humphrey B Bear will be coaching the Tigers in 2005.
Whilst he was fitting the new Saloon doors which replaced the Revolving door at club headquarters, Miller stated that "Humphrey will come to us with unparalleled credentials. Our focus will be on youth at the club and Humphrey has the runs on the board in that area. He's previous stable employment, excellent communication skills and experience with youth made him an obvious choice. There were a couple of others in the race like the Red Wiggle and that cute blonde chick from Hi-5 but they declined further negotiations with the club when they found out that Humphrey was approached."
When we later spoke to Danny Frawley about this very public vote of no confidence he stated "Look Yeah Nah, The news of Humph coming on board has put me under the pump a bit as far as my future is concerned, but I guess I'll have to dig in and take things one day at a time. I've tried contacting Humph to welcome him to the fold but as yet he hasn't returned my calls."
