July 28th 2008 02:10
RICHMOND president Gary March said the club’s decision to severe ties with former director of football Greg Miller was football-based and aimed at giving the Tigers the best chance of on-field success in the future.
March said the club had to act now to ensure they were in a good position when it came to making their most important football decisions in October.
“What we wanted to do was not be behind the rest of the field,” March said.
“It’s well documented there’s a number of clubs out there looking for different people … what we didn’t want to do was miss the best available person once we’d made the decision to move forward.”
March also admitted the way the Tigers handled Miller's departure from the club was not ideal.
“In an ideal world, I would have sat down with Greg and we would of discussed it and worked on his departure,” he said.
“I’m disappointed it came out that way and I expressed that disappointment when I met with him yesterday.”
