President Mark Maunder travelled to Craigieburn for the traditional Richmond Family Day.
A trip worth making,got to see where Craigieburn is situated,a fair way out from Melbourne
in a new development,quite a nice suburb.

The new Ground looks great,wasn’t open to the public and the finishes touches are being put
on the Dressing Rooms,overall looks like a good training facility.

Got the chance to chat to Gary March and Brendan Gale who appreciate the support of the Sydney Tigers,both gentleman have made a commitment to our function and the Club will also be sending two injured players to our function.

Gary March even took the time to mention my name as having travelled down from Sydney during the jumper presentation,which was appreciated.
It’s good to know there is support for our group from RFC

So what’s the message from Damien Hardwick for 2010.
The future,this year is not just a development year,but the start of the future of the Richmond Football
Club and helping it to achieve success in the new years ahead.
Lots of likely new recruits,plenty of athletic type players,there will be some tough times this year but
Damien Hardwick and his Coaching staff have a blueprint and will not deviate from it,and they have the support of the board who know that it’s time to rebuild.

Let’s hope the building blocks of today reap success in the future.
