Why I won't be heart broken if Richmond bomb out in the finals

Featured Replies

I CGAF who wins or who loses during the finals. I hope each team gets smashed into oblivion injury wise.  My only joy would be seeing the likes of Riewoldt, Martin, Toby Greene, Lewis Jetta, Rance, Franklin and especially that sea hunt Scully stretchered from the ground in agony.

After the bombers there one of my most hated teams. But the AFL wants them to make the GF,  just wait.

I am afraid that I have got Carlton, Collingwood, the Bombers and Hawks all ahead of the Tigers. Rather see the Cats win tomorrow evening even if it means watching the Tigers two weeks running.

Would love to see them go out in straight sets.  The only decent thing to come out of that club was one of Melbourne's best music venues in the late 70's early 80's, the Tiger Lounge at the Royal Oak Hotel in Richmond... it was managed by former captain Francis Bourke who was a really nice guy.

Remember going to a 21st there and seeing my first stripper! 

Something to forget.

Now that's real pathological hate.

gunna be a bear, ernie, may as well be a grizzly bear

It isn't the Richmond football club that is the problem but it's supporters. On mass they are nothing more than a collective noun of morons.

I'm finding it very hard to get interested in the finals after our capitulation, but the only things that would bring a small smile to my face would be...

1) Richmond go out in straight sets

2) Essendon get absolutely thumped by Sydney

And in addition  to 1, Sydney massacre Richmond in the Semi. 100 points would be nice but I'd settle for 50..

Richmond have always been my most hated side. I will be shattered if they manage to pinch the flag; especially in this even year.

Wash your mouth out Tone, then see BBO for your 100 jolly good floggings


What a bizarre topic! I mean, in any sense of the word, who the fark would be heartbroken if Richmond lost?

Solution: Delete thread

Like the Dogs last year, i'll barrack for them until i see that the umpires are manipulating the result at which point ill switch barracking sides eg the mark infringement non-50 at the end of the dogs vs gws. How could we deny the fairytale by paying a technically correct free we've payed all year! Followed by the Sydney gf.

What a delightful malaise for our yellow maggot flogs!!!!

They will have no idea of who to give the most frees to, all being their favourite idols on the ground and off.

Will i (umpire) favor Martin, the "gadget man" or "Reichwoldt", my dearest friend, or so he tells me?

What about Selwood, Dangerfield and Hawkins. The love knows no bounds.

One walks around as if he is on the Set. The other walks around as if he's got more than "one set" and the third, is king of the jumper punch set.......

But it's the right way to do it

Agreed, Richmond and all associated with them are [censored].

Loss loss - out, should be the hope of all MFC supporters.

Tanking did us no favours whatsoever

Where were we charged with tanking?

No the league wouldn't do that, but we certainly did it.

Like every other club did and will do in the future.

Sure, but we told everyone about it. 

Should have kept the trap shut

I'd prefer GWS going out in straight sets than Richmond. That said there would be something enjoyable about Richmond going out in whimper.

I used to enjoy going to the Tiger Lounge to watch Paul Madigan and the Humans winding up the "radical feminists".  Joined by Ross Hannaford, Wayne Duncan and Fred Strauks, Madigan certainly had a way with words, set to the best possible musical accompaniment.

Backed them to play in the GF tbh. They'll win tonight.

i cut this back in '92

sadly it didn't go to air, but i kept a copy of it

 

 

After reading Big Footy, all I can say is years of losing finals and finishing 9th has left them terribly bitter and twisted, I'd hate to see their response if they go out in straight sets.

I think whoever wins tonight will be in the GF. Hence Go Cats!

  • REPORT: Port Adelaide

    Of course, it’s not the backline, you might argue and you would probably be right. It’s the boot studder (do they still have them?), the midfield, the recruiting staff, the forward line, the kicking coach, the Board, the interchange bench, the supporters, the folk at Casey, the head coach and the club psychologist  It’s all of them and all of us for having expectations that were sufficiently high to have believed three weeks ago that a restoration of the Melbourne team to a position where we might still be in contention for a finals berth when the time for the midseason bye arrived. Now let’s look at what happened over the period of time since Melbourne overwhelmed the Sydney Swans at the MCG in late May when it kicked 8.2 to 5.3 in the final quarter (and that was after scoring 3.8 to two straight goals in the second term).

  • CASEY: Essendon

    Casey’s unbeaten run was extended for at least another fortnight after the Demons overran a persistent Essendon line up by 29 points at ETU Stadium in Port Melbourne last night. After conceding the first goal of the evening, Casey went on a scoring spree from about ten minutes in, with five unanswered majors with its fleet of midsized runners headed by the much improved Paddy Cross who kicked two in quick succession and livewire Ricky Mentha who also kicked an early goal. Leading the charge was recruit of the year, Riley Bonner while Bailey Laurie continued his impressive vein of form. With Tom Campbell missing from the lineup, Will Verrall stepped up to the plate demonstrating his improvement under the veteran ruckman’s tutelage. The Demons were looking comfortable for much of the second quarter and held a 25-point lead until the Bombers struck back with two goals in the shadows of half time. On the other side of the main break their revival continued with first three goals of the half. Harry Sharp, who had been quiet scrambled in the Demons’ first score of the third term to bring the margin back to a single point at the 17 minute mark and the game became an arm-wrestle for the remainder of the quarter and into the final moments of the last.

    The Demons have the Bye next week but then are on the road once again when they come up against the Gold Coast Suns on the Gold Coast in what could be a last ditch effort to salvage their season. Who comes in and who comes out?

    The Demons simply did not take their opportunities when they presented themselves and ultimately when down by 25 points effectively ending their finals chances. Goal kicking practice during the Bye?
