Benny Departing

[Groupie_]

all I'll say is the timing is really weird

almost like the afl couldnt wait to get it out

a coincedence it comes in the week that the media finally published our umpire issues ?

its almost like theyre trying to send a message to the umpires that everyone from the dynasty era is gone now

also benny apparently had a meeting with the cfl regarding our umpiring during the week

they probably told him to announce he is gone and the umpiring will now get better

Papered over the cracks with 3 flags

Hahah that was a classic post, whoever it was who made it.

 

[Nostradumbass]

At this rate only people left will be Teague and Rutten and I will help pack their bags. lol

Why are they still here?

The Tassie team needed an announcement of a CEO
I hope RFC do a global search for the next CEO.

and find henriette rothschild

TY for everything Benny.
CFL freemasons boy's club strike again.
Is there a more corrupt League on the globe?
We need to find the best person we can.
NO CFL approved DOUBLE AGENTS!
3 0 75
The World laughed at Benny but he had the last laugh even with the Freemason rule changes designed to stop our game plan.
We beat corruption!!!
Onya Benny!
I understand you going to Tassie.
We need a strong bloke to stand up to the freemasons and bring us back to number one where we belong.
Let's force the CFL boy's club into making yet more rules against this mighty club.
Richmond Forever!!!!!

 

["The Roar Is Back"]

I love that we had a dynasty under him but lets be honest he went really loopy towards the end:

-all the woke shite forced down our throats

-no balls to stand up to the way the afl treat us and the way we are umpired

-no balls to call out the rule changes by Stephen Shocking that stopped our dynasty dead in its tracks

-refusal to return the traditional yellow even though the fluro had run its race and looked a million times worse with 3 different coloured sponsors

-accepted green, red and blue sponsors to desecrate our sacred guernsey

-accepted above number sponsors even though theres no afl rule that you have to have one and we only make a small amount of money from them anyway (which goes to pauper clubs anyway)

I'm sure theres more

You bullied him into leaving ya dawg .

also benny apparently had a meeting with the cfl regarding our umpiring during the week

Meeting was to finalise the figure he was gunna get. Only a fool could believe it was to address umpiring .

Make no mistake afl was involved getting Dimma to the sun's and Gale to Tasmania.

 

[Truetiger]

Make no mistake afl was involved getting Dimma to the sun's snd Gale to Tasmania.

Really he was always going to join Tasmania once it was confirmed with or without AFL assistance. Good luck to him, he will have more success with them then the suns will ever have.

Tassie aren't even in for 4 years. If they were an active competitor maybe but what is the risk here?

There's a potential for conflict, no specific risk needs to be identified. Should he be involved in the decision to continue (given the cost escalation) with the redevelopment of Punt Road which will commit a massive amount of the club's resources, or not (not that it's his decision alone but he could easily influence it in a different direction). I don't get how people don't understand basic conflict of interest management in the AFL. eg. Hocking makes a whole bunch of rule changes while speaking regularly with Chris Scott about how Geelong can get better, then quits to go to Geelong and no one bats an eye. It's insane.

Onya Benny, I'll never forget your guitar skills with Trial by Video

Will come in handy in Tassie.
Tassie official music instrument the Banjo.

 

[Tiger_Of_Old]

Thanks for service Benny, all the best in future endeavors. Tiger Legend.

Now give us back our reserved seating in N5.

Lost my seats in m6.
Not happy

 

[Tiger_Of_Old]

Poor form Groupie. Only the first nine words were required.

Can tell Auntie wrote the first 9

 

[Tiger_Of_Old]

Too say FU CFL
I'd appoint Brooke Cotchin.

 

[Freddy Swift]

At this rate only people left will be Teague and Rutten and I will help pack their bags. lol

If any other side would like to poach either of them, please feel free.

 

[juss]

A club legend. Thank you for the era.

I do have some pretty worrying thoughts for us now though.

It's indeed a conflict.

What incentive is there for him to appoint long term positions in our best interests rather than saving them for Tassie?

 

[Bojangles17]

Thx for putting us back on the map Benny ,

 

[smasha]

Always be a Richmond man.
Dimma also.
Umpire rorts.
Rule changes.
Personel poaches.
CFL really played their grand final on us.

 

[sante]

Another who was a massive part of the club turning around and becoming a powerhouse again.

 

[smasha]

As our original club song says,
Onward The Tigers.

Same faces tomorrow night.
The Tiger Army are still here.

Best supporters on Earth.

If only the CFL could poach our supporters,they would too.
