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.......

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!

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Western Bulldogs

    The Dogs reigned supreme in 2018 with an inaugural AFLW premiership cup and the Demons matched this feat by winning the cup as the Season 7 2022 champions.Meggs wasn’t born when the Doggies won their first VFL premiership cup against the Demons in 1954. Covid prevented many Demons fans from legally witnessing the victorious 2021 AFL Grand Final cup performance between the Demons and the Bulldogs, but we all grin when remembering those magnificent seven third quarter goals.

  • PREVIEW: Hawthorn

    Hawthorn and Melbourne. Two teams with impressive form from last week but with seasons that are travelling on different trajectories meet in Saturday’s twilight game for what could well be the most intriguing contest of the AFL’s penultimate round. Sadly, the game has been relegated to that unappealing time slot in the weekend when Melburnians are typically preoccupied with activities other than football. It falls between the morning's shopping, afternoon sport and recreation, and Saturday night fever. A time usually reserved for relatively insignificant events but this one is not a nothingburger for either of the clubs or their fans.

  • AFLW: 2025 Season Preview

    Ten seasons. Eighteen teams. With the young talent pathway finally fully connected, Women’s Australian Rules football is building momentum and Season 2025 promises to be the best yet. In advance of Season 10, the AFL leadership has engaged in candid discussions with all clubs regarding strategies to boost attendance and expand fan bases. Concerningly, average attendances in 2024 were 2,660 fans per match, with the women’s game incurring an annual loss of approximately $50 million.

  • REPORT: Western Bulldogs

    The next coach of the Melbourne Football Club faces the challenge of teaching his players how to win games against all comers. At times during this tumultuous season, that task has seemed daunting, made more so in light of the surprise news last week of the sacking of premiership coach Simon Goodwin. However, there were also some positive signs from yesterday’s match against the Western Bulldogs that the challenge may not be as difficult as one might think. The two sides presented a genuine football spectacle, featuring pulsating competitive play with eight lead changes throughout the afternoon, in a display befitting a finals match.The result could have gone either way and in the end, it came down to which team could produce the most desperate of acts to provide a winning result. It was the Bulldogs who had their season on the line that won out by a six point margin that fitted the game and the effort of both sides.

  • CASEY: Brisbane

    The rain had been falling heavily in south east Queensland when the match began at Springfield, west of Brisbane. The teams exchanged early goals and then the Casey Demons proceeded like a house on fire in the penultimate game of the VFL season against a strong opponent in the Brisbane Lions. Sparked by strong play around the ground by seasoned players in Charlie Spargo and Jack Billings, a strong effort from Bailey Laurie and promising work from youngsters in Kynan Brown and  Koltyn Tholstrup, the Demons with multiple goal kickers firing, raced to a 27 point lead late in the opening stanza. A highlight was a wonderful goal from Laurie who brilliantly sidestepped two opponents and kicked beautifully from 45 metres out.

  • PREGAME: Hawthorn

    The Demons return to the MCG this time as the visiting team where they get another opportunity to put a dent into a team's top 8 placing when they take on the Hawks on Saturday afternoon. Who comes in and who goes out?
