Fork 'em

I’ve always loved Dusty because despite being one of the best all time players and achieving everything, IMO he’s remained pretty humble. 

It was so nice to see him actually talk to McVee instead of rubbing his face in it, when clearly it’s no shame to lower your colours to a champion like Dusty. It’s happened to far greater and more experienced players. 

He is back in form and that undoubtedly makes Richmond better. An absolute star of the game he is. Some of the stuff he does is mind boggling. Imagine if all those years ago we drafted him ahead of $cully 🤮

I agree.
And another thing I've noticed is he'll regularly pass to a 1st game player.
Multiple times I've seen him set up young blokes with lace out passes to give them their 1st shot at goal.
Stories they can tell their mates forever no matter how their careers turn out.
"Got my 1st kick/goal from Dusty Martin".

Thank you for your contribution Fork 'em. You're only doing it slightly wrong. Anything from the early 90s that got your hips moving? 

I was a Headbanger man.

Sounds like a great idea all round.  I'm sure it must be a [censored] call for a club doctor to have to make anyway.

It is part of their job.
Allir Allir assessment should have been open and shut.
Same the bloke with "the migraine." 😒

For three quarters today the result was in the balance. But for our fantastic finishing burst, we could have had the chasing pack at our heels.

As they say in the classics.

The boys are startin' to sharpen up nicely.

Well

They certainly don't like the umpires and the coach aka Mini is on the nose (mention of not having a plan B....where have we heard that before)

Yeah, I though all our HTB frees were hilarious.
Icing on the cake in the goal square 😂

Max Gawn in the mood has to be the most dominant player in the game.
Best ruckman I've seen.

Where did this God damn rain come from 

Torquay apparently.

That song with the families was fantastic.

Toigs have just lost their minds 😅

I will never watch this and not tear up. Pure. Magic. 

I got the chills watching it just then.

Just flicked over to YouTube and look what the algorithm delivered.
Never gets old.
 

The local footy team I played for used the Richmond them song.
Once at a Melbourne Richmond game I found myself absent mindedly singing along to Tigerland.
The look of disgust from the 2 older cheersquad women beside me snapped me back to reality 😂

On rhe travel, interstate teams must hate playing at kp because they have to fly into tulla and then get in a bus for what, 75 mins, down to Geelong?

With not alot to look at.
Then again, probably all just staring at their phones anyhow.

How does a game of rugby union at the MCG get 84,000? I don’t know anyone in this city that cares about it. 

Always good to watch a big sport at the highest level.

There’s a lot to like about Adelaide.

I disagree.

Far out, footy messes with your head. Usually watching Papley I’m thinking of how much I can’t stand his annoying mug. Just now I yelled out “Yes! Go Paps!!” Come round 24 and I’ll be back to wishing him a pregame injury. It’s exhausting!

Reminds me of when I yelled out " Go Milney!" during the drawn 2010 GF.
Watching neutral games can be confusing to say the least.

Dont ask 

Dont tell assessment?

The doc ran out to Ollie Wines last week to assess him after a heavy clash and got waved away.
So he left.

Nothing to see there either.

Also got a few doggy frees which helped. UMPIRE ALERT. Watch for #23. Some weird interpretations.

No doubt there was.
Always is nowadays.
I won't be watching it again though.

I thought the Pies were slightly off their game from the first bounce.

 

C'mon man.
They were on fire early.
Marking everything in the F50 and kicked 2.2 before Carlton scored.

Like it or not the Blues were impressive.
It's all about pressure.
