I said I'm going and I am. Here is my parting shot on the pussy-cat board:
Congratulations Geelong. I hope you win the flag.
If so, you will have supassed the great Western Bulldogs of 2016 as the least deserving premiership team I have seen in the fifty years since I was old enough to start...
Exactly. Richcogs can eff off.
I'm going for another reason. Last post ever. It's been a decent place to come this board, but as I said just before, there's only so much one can take.
Match-fixing. Equalisation. Call it what you will. It's an industry, not a game and while Hawthorn were hardly unfavoured during their glory years, Richmond is to be dragged down at all costs.
So, that's it from me. I'm out. Life-long supporter walking off. Can't stand this any longer. How good...
Dangerfield in the GF and now Stewart...
It's not their lesser lights but their mainstays that do this. Cameron is another sniper. The Media let it go because of the reputations of the snipers.
It is widely believed in Geelong circles that Richmond gives away frees because of rough play and playing on the edge. Then they laugh at this, defend the indefensible and act like bloody hypocrites. What would they be like if they actually won a flag again?
Gillon Incorporated - a wholly-owned subsidiary of the big end of town.
Australian Rules was a people's game, but those days are well-and-truly over now. And every year it gets worse.
Jezza Cameron: Really good fun. Feel like we're in the game.
I know players don't say much of value at times but it may have been better to shut up than say that.
The umpires are corrupt. Every half-free goes to Geelong. Same sort never paid the other way.
And the commentators are no better. All owned by AFL Inc.
I like what Fagan's doing.
Come finals, he has a touch of the Fitzroy Lions about him.
Fitzroy won seven flags as the Maroons and one during WWII as the Gorillas, but as the Lions they were pussies during the finals, not that they made them too often.
Richmond finished the regular season first in 2018 and were clearly the best team in the competition over 22 H&A games. They won their first final, lost their second after sitting out a week and were out.
Under a challenge system, they could have fronted up to the grand final anyway and it may...
Chris the short-haired and short-fused Cat after being reminded he piggybacked his sole premiership as coach in his first year and his finals record since is just 6 wins from 19 games.
Take out Dimma's first three finals (the practice runs) and his record is 10 wins from 12.
Fairy shrimps of Geelong
These little filter feeders may be tiny, hence the name, but they thrive in brine of three quarters water and one quarter salt.
I think this one's called Chris.
