Tigers V Bombers

[Toorak 108]

This game is a footy mistake fest. Talk about clangers.

[Maple Demon 449]

But an awesome goal to end the half.

Essendon kick straight the game is over at 1/4 time.

[KingDingAling 3,758]

I watched us play Port, then I watched a little bit of Bris/Carlton and switched it off.

Melb Vs Port was a far better game to watch than Bris Vs Carlton.

Not sure about this Essendon Vs Tigers game.

I don't know if it is the level of footy that has lost my interest - or the amount of cans I've had, could go either way there.

[SaberFang 7,151]

The level of stupidity by Richmond players in this game is absolutely... Stupifying. Under 15s could play a more competitive game.

[Deestroy All 14,266]

Richmond are a rabble, we've passed the torch by the looks of it.

We helped by giving them Miller, A.Maric and Petterd to go with their spud farm of recruits; Hampson, Chaplain, A.Edwards, Grigg and softy Houli.

Meanwhile Schulz, White and Derickx are killing it at their new clubs, even Nahas has had a small impact at north.

Most of my family and a lot of mates are Tigers supporters so I take a lot of interest, and an immense amount of joy watching the [censored] hit the fan and the microwaves melt the cards.

Cotch can't kick over a jam tin, Riewoldt is a downhill skiing sook.

Imagine how bad they'd be had Martin left.

Richmond and Reiwoldt are a joke

Hope they enjoyed beating up on GWS

Means absolutely nothing

[Sir Why You Little 37,241]

a very dull game....Hardwick must be looking behind himself more these day...

Won't be long.

[Dee Fan 3,247]

It's just Richmond being Richmond, they always get ahead of themselves and it's great to see them crumble.

[Toorak 108]

I'm looking forward to when we play the bombers in two weeks.

Judging from what I've seen tonight we'll smash them.

[Maple Demon 449]

Just heard the Tigers summed up as lazy on SEN. Perfect description. 50 margin at 3QT - thinking it'll be 86-105 in the end.

[Straight Sets Simon 23,113]

I actually get joy out of seeing Richmond fail, a bit rich coming from a Melbourne supporter but they really do get caught up in their own hype.

This loss will fuel speculation that Worsfold is waiting in the wings. Dim a is gone I would suggest.

Interesting thought about Wosha, Chook. At this rate, I'd be surprised ih Hardwick sees out the season.

Worsfold is now living in Melbourne I believe and wants to coach again.

[P-man 13,366]

I was staggered at the talk of top four for Richmond this year. Never rated them at any stage. They peaked last year and got found out at the first hurdle in the finals, but convinced themselves their list just needed a top up. Their delusion was rampant and widespread and it has cost them. Time to start over.

Did not know that.

[chook fowler 19,674]

Did not know that.

It is a rumour but a strong one.

[Maple Demon 449]

Attendance at the game was 74 000 and change. Think we can at least meet or beat that. I'm figuring 80 000ish.

Weren't they supposed to be served their notices by the end of May - only about 100 minutes to go.

The Tigers will be really struggling to get anywhere near ninth place. Top 4 - pftt.

I think it was the show cause letters that were due to be distributed by the end of the month. Besides, the way this thing has draged on..and on...and on, you didn't really expect them to stick to a timeline, did you?

[What 18,810]

Jack Riewoldt the king of meaningless junk time footy

What a spud

Wouldn't matter who coached Richmond, they are rabble.

It has been for years. The supporters run the club and the board and surrounding staff are too [censored] scared to offend them. And when you add to this that the supporters are either drinking champagne because their team is better than anyone or drinking cyanide because they are the worst team in the league, then you have mob rule, and that never works. It especially won't work down Tigger Alley because their supporters are so freakin' unbalanced and unrealistic.

Normally when you point at cultural problems in a club you target players, or coaches or admin. Down that way it's the supporters that harm the club in ways that no other club has managed, and probably won't.

Until that changes they will either be suffocated by unrealistic expectations when they win, or drowned by the vitriol and anger that accompanies losses.

But enough about putting the boot into the RFC in its moment of pain (as fun as that is). I want to talk to that fella that defected from us to go join them when we had our teatime of the soul. What was his name again?

[What 18,810]

Richmond havent won a final since 2001 LOL

They will always be a nothing team
