    We won finals by a combined total of nearly 200 points. It was the perfect season. 

    Yeah it was. But it didn’t look perfect every game. Far from it. No one would have predicted we would do that coming into the finals either.

    It would be interesting to know what they’re saying now 

    my opinion - Richmond couldn’t play any better than that (save for improved accuracy) but Melbourne definitely absolutely can

    They booed the downfield free to Kosi. They booed the free for a high on Hunter. The list goes on.

    The tigers fans I know were reasonably philosophic about the loss. They didn't expect to win, but could (arguably should) have if they kicked even 1 or 2 of the 3 shots they missed when they were on top in the last. 

    They were very happy with how their pressure and speed showed up, which really really hampered our ball movement

    What the Tigers fans should be talking about now is how good the top draft pick is, but that they are going to get out tanked by Hawthorn.  At least they might be able to get ahead of Freo in the draft race - "oh wait, maybe we can beat Melbourne on that one!" Pitty the second and third best players in the draft are a crow eater and a sandgroper who love their mummies.

    GWS has Richmond’s 1st pick

    In all seriousness, I was rapped with how sedated the Richmond fans near us were all game.  A few started to get a bit extravagant when they got that run-on (umpire assisted) in the second quarter.  But overall, they weren't the most feral obnoxious supporter group I've come across.  Guessing they're pretty content with their three flags and are resided to knowing the time of thier current list is up.

    Incidentally my feeling was that MFC supporters significantly out numbered RFC ones last night and / or were alot more vocal in support of their team.  Could make for a massive crowd at the Kings birthday clash against the Pies in a months time.

    Totally agree with this. There were 84,000 people there, and we outnumbered Richmond supporters 2:1. I reckon the club would be thrilled with that - as they should be.

    The noise at 3/4 time was incredible.

    Interesting you say that, I was baffled and annoyed on Twitter by Richmond fans, upon hearing there were neary 84,000 at the G, saying they were all Richmond, and that Melbourne supporters were at the snow.  Like we hadn't heard that joke a million times before.....

    If their fans are realistic, they should have one over-riding concern about their performance: their best players included Reiwoldt, Cotchin and Martin. That's not going to happen every week, and certainly won't happen next year. If Richmond supporters want something to look forward to, they need to see other names appearing in their best players.

    They have to feel like they won something

    Clearly they didn't hear the cheering from us in the last quarter was far louder than they were.

  • Quote

    I can confirm there were plenty of Richmond supporters there.  The aisles were full of them heading to the exits very early into the final quarter when we were less than 2 goals up.  Don’t let Tiger supporters claim they are thing more than one of the most fickle supporter groups in the league.

    Went to the game with my son and his two daughters, 16 and 14 and they brought a friend each, the younger friend is a mad Tigers supporter, her whole family are. She was really good during the game and bless her little heart, clapped and sang our club song at the end of the match.

    Post match one of the big talking points was that they could have taken JVR prior to our selection of him in the draft. Bagging their draft selection people big time.

    Say what you like about Tiger fans but there are tons of the buggers and they are loyal. Even through three decades when all they had to look forward to was finishing ninth, they turned up in droves. 

     

    Unlike those bandwagoners from Hawthorn

    • CASEY: Richmond

      The match up of teams competing in our great Aussie game at its second highest level is a rarity for a work day Thursday morning but the blustery conditions that met the players at a windswept Casey Fields was something far more commonplace.They turned the opening stanza between the Casey Demons and a somewhat depleted Richmond VFL into a mess of fumbling unforced errors, spilt marks and wasted opportunities for both sides but they did set up a significant win for the home team which is exactly what transpired on this Anzac Day round opener. Casey opened up strong against the breeze with the first goal to Aidan Johnson, the Tigers quickly responded and the game degenerated into a defensive slog and the teams were level when the first siren sounded.

    • POSTGAME: Richmond

      After five consecutive defeats, the Demons have now notched up back-to-back victories, comfortably accounting for the Tigers in the traditional ANZAC Eve clash. They surged to a commanding 44-point lead early in the final quarter before easing off the pedal, resting skipper Max Gawn and conceding the last four goals of the game to close out a solid 20-point win.

    • GAMEDAY: Richmond

      It's Game Day and the Demons return to the MCG to face the Tigers in their annual Blockbuster on ANZAC Eve for the 10th time. The Dees will be desperate to reignite their stuttering 2025 campaign and claim just their second win of the season. Can the Demons dig deep and find that ANZAC Spirit to snatch back to back wins?
