If We Beat Richmond, I Will.......

[RalphiusMaximus 6,053]

... Be pretty happy.  You know the last time we won the first six games of the season was something like 1965, right? 

 

Edit:  Or was that the first seven games?  I think that team won like eight in a row anyway.

Begin to think Goodwin might be starting to listen to those around him.

If we win, I’ll go absolutely nuts.  

The Tigers are the best team right now. 

Of course my reaction is best described in pictures.

Be releaved that the side is finally starting to live up to its potential.

To be honest, I won't be that surprised as we really should have beaten Richmond in at least one of our encounters in the last few years.

Time we stop being intimidated by these sides.  Richmond are good, but they are not invincible.

Richmond came out the favourites, super-confident and arrogant during the pre-season for a practice match against the Dees. They did not impress and went down rather embarassingly to an underprepared Demon outfit. It's going to happen again this coming weekend. This time, we're prepared, despite key injuries.

Loved the caller on SEN a short time ago, has us going 10-0 heading into Dogs game if we beat Richmond.

Head down Swan street to drink a few beers and luxuriate in the afterglow of a win against the benchmark team, then home to jump on DL to post some rantings, watch the replay and read all the newspapers articles I can find.

Mind you if we lose I’ll do pretty much the same thing except I’ll wallow in defeat rather than luxuriate in victory.

Realise that we are only another five wins from playing finals!

Cue pessimistic Demonlanders writing on 'Is Goodwin the right guy' thread, that if we still make finals, we're just making up numbers, thus it's and indictment on the board for agreeing to a contract extension for Goodwin.

if melb win I'll probably watch the reply 5 times.

I would be absolutely disgusting to be around. Richmond supporters would have nothing on what I would be dishing up.

I’ve been as critical of Goodwin as anyone but it would be harsh to criticise after a 5-1 start to the season with the only loss coming against the premiers. Best leave that thread until the end of the season I reckon.

I must confess to watching the replay of the last quarter of last weekend's game twice.

Haven't done that for many years

... be surprised. Looking at the recording of the Hawks game, I got a bit disheartened about or chances Saturday night.

If MFC beat RFC we will laud Goody’s cunning ploy to appropriate and assimilate Dimma’s gameplan into the Demon playbook.

Pop the lid off.....a bottle of beer! 

But seriously I will also start to believe that might be something this year. 

[Bitter but optimistic 22,241]

This is a dead set critical game for us

It might even be a “line in the sand game”

Anyway in honour of this game ,and of course The Warrior’s 300th, I have decided to have a moment of morality 

If we win..... I shall confess to the maid that lockdown is over and she can actually leave The Manor

Ill give up smoking, drinking, swearing and fried chicken.

How would he go without Yze and Williams

Some folk here have made some very public and specific commitments...
