I thought they may have been setting us up to fail with the "We're for Tigerland" slogan today. But, they've gone front page again.

I just watched the highlights, that goal where chappy falls over when Newman goes to pick it up Towers(i think) shoves him exactly the same as Petterd in our forward 50 and the cotch free kick.

time to return the traditional Richmond yellow

Same thing. Someone just shat and pissed on his jumper
The Parker "advantage" in the 1st qtr = Goal
Hanneberry push in the side = Goal
The Swans were given EVERY opportunity by the umpires to win the game. Jack was held in every marking attempt and the treatment of Cotchin around the ball was a disgrace. There was a shocker that resulted in another umpiring mistake where a swans player took possession and was tackled, thus "dropping the ball" would have been applied to all other teams, but somehow the umps found a new interpretation of "holding the man" - because it was a Swans player. Cotchin was tackled "mid air" before he had the ball and then slammed into the back. Play on was the call. Jetta spent most of the game appealing to the umpires for frees and Goodes was simply an embarrassment. There was a stanza of play where Goodes was more interested in staging several times and throwing his arms out when not in possession. He has the term "playing for a free kick" his own.
Some real howlers out there today. If the game was played on equal terms we would have won by at least 20 points.
Bringing this one back before I hit the hay. An even greater resonance NOW THAT WE'RE PLAYING FINALS.
What a day. Damn.
Props to knickerbocker

can somebody explain what was paid against Newman on Rohan in the lead up to Reids last goal??
Needs to add Jack on the siren and probably Dustys goal now. But i've watched this at least 20 times since midweek
That is awesome.
That was the COLA allowance.
That Rance/Tippett contest at the end, Rance falls next to Tippett not on him.

Yes. Right behind the goals in the middle of the large Richmond contingent. Amazing atmosphere. Everyone nervous but excited.In all seriousness though. How was it? Were you sitting in amongst the Tigers? ******* just a little bit jealous.
I live in Sydney and sometimes I get invited to Swans games. The Swans fans are all a bit genteel and golf clappy.
This was exactly not like that.
First 15 minutes were great and got Team Tiger going.
But the last 15 minutes and especially the Tiger fans reaction as Martin got free and bounced his way to the goal was unbelievable. Right towards us.
Even better was the noise as the final siren went. I've heard the Yellow and Black yelled out many times before,
but the passion today was sensational. EVERYONE on their feet screaming, hugging, yelling. Win! Finals! Yes!
All the players did a great job of coming over and acknowledging the Tiger fans and support before chairing Newy off.
I'll admit it. As the game ended and we all were going nuts, something seems to have got in both my eyes and made them a bit moist.
Haha that's awesome. I teared up a bit too. Was an amazing win and Jack's celebrations with the crowd were epic.

so pumped! that was a heart stopping finish and i am so proud of the boys and Dimma, they never gave up, even at 3-10 they still had the belief that got us to the position we are in today. Rance and Titch take a bow that was sensational football from you two boys

Never recorded a game since the final last year. Had a gut feeling today and put it on record.
Now to go and buy bulk boxes of tissues and take up some of that annual leave!

Close for me, but 95' gets the nod.
Gordo will stay for the run, but I don't know we will change this side.
