Autopsy AFL 2021 Round 8 - Tigers v Cats Fri May 7th 7:50pm EST (MCG) LIVE TIGERCAST COMING!

[Ice-Wolf]

What did you do for the 37 years prior?

Probably ritually microwaved their membership card by round 2.

 

[Milanista28]

Why didn't Richmond give Rohan a guard of honor? Maybe they forgot? Because Richmond give GON all the time they rarely forget.

 

[Wojcinski]

Look on with envy at the teams winning premierships.

So you just spent 37 years not watching or enjoying anything football related?

 

[juss]

lol richmond have the least injuries in the afl. get your head out of the sand

Houli, Vlastuin, Martin, Cotchin, Lambert, Grimes, Prestia have all missed and some have/will for longer periods. Edwards is about to miss. Ive probably forgotten a couple too. You've got to look at quality over quantity.

We might not have it the worst in the league, but we certainly haven't had it the best.

No of course not, celebrate the wins but at the end of the day it’s all about premierships.

Need to take your chances at winning a premiership, if you don't it all falls apart and then you do wait 40 years just to get another chance again and occasionally you come close but then it is harder and harder to win. As I said it is hard to win in this league but you keep trying and trying year after year. Geelong have been the best team since 2004, 12 top 4 finishes, 11 preliminary finals, 5 grand finals for 3 premierships and have only missed the finals twice in that time period and they may have won more flags if the ball bounced differently.

Indeed. Very exciting player - think he'll light it up on Optus Stadium for years to come

Hope the Eagles come to the party and create a bidding war. Liam Ryan and Bolton would create unbelievable aerial dominance.

Geez the cats fans have been up and about since last night with their chests puffed out. Not unlike most home and away seasons although we all know it all comes unstuck come September.

The audacity of Geelong fans to enjoy a 10 goal win. Stop sulking, sook.

 

[SupercededMan]

I’m a neutral observer tonight not complaining about the umpires just noticed tigers seemed to be on the wrong end of the free kick count (be it right or wrong) early tonight and also in other games this year. Maybe the price you pay for high pressure game style I’m not sure.

They won the free kick count last week (and rightfully so, IMO, even as a Doggies supporter). The week leading up to the match with the Dogs, Tiges supporters were already whingeing and predicting a free count in favour of the opposition.

I'll accept the free kick count was in their favour, and for good reason (Dogs were last to the ball a lot of the night), but, geez, complaining and predicting AHEAD of a match ... LOL.

 

[SupercededMan]

But the history of Richmond is important to note when assessing our performance today and what it means for the season. It’s not unusual for us to put out performances like this in the last 4 years. Therefore, it’s not a loss that rules us out or even puts us on shaky grounds yet because of our history and how little these type of losses meant.

If we lose to GWS next week then the questions can be asked IMO because if there is one thing that we haven’t done in the last 4 years is carry a negative W-L record as late as Round 9.

No, the history of Richmond is NOT important to note for supporters of other clubs. We really don't give a crap.

Missed this on the night.
How does this peanut get paid to be an expert?

"a long nine points", that's a doozy.

 

[Art Vandelay_]

No free against Selwood for hitting a bloke over the ball

Wtf

Can’t have paid a free.

Paying a free kick would be admitting Selwood committed an act against the rules. He hit his opponent in the head, hit the head while committing an illegal act would mean he’d be open to suspension.

That would have been a BS outcome as it wasn’t a reportable incident.

Yeah it’s unlike a supporter group in competitive sport to be happy after a win. How dare we.

Can't wait for Hawkins to be rubbed out for this brutal attack on the Richmond debutant

He could have killed him

Difference between being happy and being arrogant. You’d think you blokes would learn by now.

 

[frggr]

Legit the Tugboats are the most insecure supporters in the league

Yeah there are no cats supporters alive who are cautious about mid season form. Being happy is definitely arrogance. Stop being a bitch and accept that fans will enjoy a good win

Or like dusty brushing your best player aside to kick his 4th in another premiership?
