I dont feel like there are many that are, so they?Honest question (without trying to troll honestly) why do SOME not all, but a vocal minority of Richmond supporters seem to take it personally that some posters rate other clubs chances going into season 2023 (and maybe beyond) than The Tigers.
I was wrong about Geelong going into 2022 (honestly thought their flag window was shut) and I could be very wrong about Richmond in 2023, I just don't believe they have enough speedy midfielders and forward line punch any more to be a serious flag threat, plus I am still yet to be convinced they have an strong enough backline at this stage.
On the plus side, they are getting games into some very quality kids, and I do not believe the Tigers will fall off as dramatically as the likes of Hawthorn and Brisbane after their flag dynastys.
I feel like the are following the Swans template of a semi rebuild, and that is not a bad thing.
Apart from a couple of us feeding some pretty hilarious Geelong and Collingwood trolls on our flag era, the commentary seems pretty tame compared to the equivalent Carl vs Coll thread.
Like that thread I believe the two clubs here are of similar calibre.
If discussed on topic it’s a fascinating one, and one worth following. And I’m looking forward to seeing how we compare next year with our changed up teams.
