A few weeks ago I sat down looking ahead to this match thinking... thank christ someone already lost to Essendon. We were playing like a hatful of busted arseholes and Essendon’s 4 ‘n’20 squad (mostly offcuts) were showing plenty of pluck without being able to close the deal. A week may be a...
Yep its tanother time wasting off-season thread
I've done this thread a few times over the years for a bit of a laugh. The premise of the thread is to think about the year ahead and identify which three clubs do you want Richmond to beat like a red-headed step child (sorry Jacko, Conca and...
Dea 007 stalked the outer perimeter of the ME bank vault facility, his ears and eyes at full attention. Intelligence indicated that once again the Fighting Tiger Fund had been targeted by a club desperate to see out the season. The clear night and vibrant moon provided reasonable illumination of...
Dea mulled around the arrivals lounge at Tullamarine preparing for the onslaught of the great unwashed seeping in from Radelaidistan. There was no hint of an evil world domination style plot from the Camry’s so this week’s mission was all about Dea making a nuisance of himself.
To this end Dea...
Apologies for the delay lads
Work was most unsporting in requiring that I work this week. Thank god for WA day football
Should have the preview completed sometime today*
*warning, not a guarantee
PART 1 of 4
Dea grumbled as he flicked a chunk of ice off the side mirror of his Jeep.
“Another delightful Canberra morning” he scowled “Colder than a witch’s tit out here!” he chattered as he walked across the car park at 6/5 Tennant Street, Fyshwick: ASADA headquarters.
The massive...
<Mercy Rule Invoked>
LOLZ LKS, FCK THESE TANKING PRICKS, NO MERCY
Circular Quay, Sydney, 12:15pm.
Dea waited in a harbour side cafe for his contacts to arrive. The meeting in Sydney was a little unusual for him yet his sources had set the...
Why did I volunteer to do a serious preview??? :eek:
VS
This week we play a team that may well have just hit absolute rock bottom. Given the vastly different ways in which Richmond and Melbourne went about their business this week you could be forgiven for predicting a pretty large...
H sat behind his desk, shuffling papers and looking very official. “Welcome back 007” he remarked as he placed the stack of papers into a shredder.
Dea waited for the paper mauling noises to subside before replying. “I need a distraction after last week’s result H, what’s the mission?”
“Port...
Part 1
“One f***ing point!”
Dea seethed as he emptied the clip into the target at the Punt Rd firing range. The forwards had just had a session so naturally the walls surrounding the targets had been thoroughly peppered.
Dea was preparing to go another round on the range when his...
Part 1 of 2
Dea stood atop the Jack Dyer stand looking south over the train lines. Far in the distance he saw the trespassers, the interlopers, befouling pure, beautiful Richmond with their Piesoned presence. H’s sources had identified a suspicious amount of activity from the Colllingwood...
PART 1 of 3
The clouds separate briefly to allow a beam of moonlight to strike the yard. Dea 007 looks up and observes the moon during its cameo appearance before it is swallowed up once more by the black Miasma swirling overhead.
It was a little unusual for Dea to be placed on guard...
PART 1 of 3
Dea sat in the empty Jack Dyer stand at Punt Road, still savouring the victory over Richmond’s most vile enemy. The feeling was around the club was as if a great weight had lifted and the future was bright. His watch signalled the turn of the hour, the time for self...
Dea 007 lounges outside H’s office, waiting for the call to enter. Whilst he waits he allows himself a moment to mourn the loss of Pia from the administrative staff. No blow he has ever received from an adversary has wounded him as badly as the loss of the seductress of Punt Rd.
The outer door...
It has come to the attention of the Furies management that there has been some criticism of the lack of a team thread here @ SFA HQ.
As a concession the Furies powers that be have opened this Information Kiosk here @ SFA HQ in order to shine a light of knowledge on the darkness of ignorance...
Dea's back, and this time its a vengeance 9 years in the making
Dea sat in the centre square of Punt Rd oval basking in the glory of a win so satisfying; Ms Miller had been temporarily purged from his thoughts. An 18 wheeler decked out in yellow and black fired off its mighty horn as it passed...
Apologies for the slight tardiness of the unofficial preview this week lads, it's always harder to pull up after a dissapointing loss;)
A sombre mood surrounded the players in their recovery session following yet another honourable loss. Dea was jumping out of his skin for another mission...
Dea 007 returns in his most important mission to date!
Dea 007 awaited his contact at the London Tavern in the Tiger Heartland. H had arranged for Dea to attend a gala event celebrating indigenous contributions to the AFL community ahead of Indigenous Round and the Dreamtime match. H was...
Dea 007 returns in another preview adventure!
Dea 007 sat outside H’s office vigorously polishing his weapon. Mrs Miller was making herself busy by updating H’s calendar whilst pretending not to look.
H had called Dea in for a new mission not long after the team had returned from victory in...
We on the Richmond board have keenly felt the loss on Andy Collins and it is apparent that we are in need of a new cult hero.
It is with this in mind that I am posting a preview thread lionising:
Matt Dea - codename: Agent-D 007 sauntered into the secure anteroom leading into the Office of...
I remember seeing a similar thread at around this time last year and thought it was a good premise.
My three are as follows:
#1 - Carlton. LOL, how could any Tiger not want to knock over this mob? We have had a less than stellar record against them in recent years and the propensity for Blooze...
