Guardian article and I think he's right on https://www.theguardian.com/sport/2023/apr/20/the-rise-of-loud-and-opinionated-afl-media-is-reflective-of-a-wider-malaise

Just wanted to discuss the membership packs this year, cause they are different to normal. I just got my 2023 membership pack. I have both the men’s and women’s membership so had $100 to spend. I got a cap, lanyard etc. But the ‘special’ things were a cup, socks, keyring and a bear. Pretty...

Interesting segment on who is in line to be the next AFL CEO. Couple of things interested me. 'All of the clubs want Benny Gale'. 'The AFL doesn't want Benny Gale'. And Eddie that there needs to be a step change with a football guy in charge. Sounds like the AFL boy's club doesn't want any...

Apologies if already posted And doesn't Richo look like a wannbe 1970's pr0n star. Lost the tash man. Some people can grow a good one and some can't - I'm in the Richo zone for quality of upper lip growth.

TLDR – We pressure the opposition so that they rush their possessions and we intercept, our attacking style controls the ball enough and this leads to massive numbers of repeat efforts, so we wear teams out. I’ve been thinking of this for ages and decided to write about why our game plan...

Posted because it is 1) football related, 2) weird and interesting, and 3) the RFC caused this to happen in our glorious 2017 GF. We did break the Crows! The GF made them do this voodoo cult 'camp', and they used We're from Tigerland as part of what destroyed the team. Interesting read, and...

In the absence of a preview thread I though I'd post this article (link) as I reckon there's some fairly good analysis in it on how the game is likely to be played. https://www.canberratimes.com.au/sport/afl/4-points-can-master-coach-find-a-master-plan-20180902-p5019d.html Logically, Richmond...

Another Tiger person recruited to transform things. Turning Rugby League into a genuine passion for Victorians will be very hard. The article makes her sound awesome. But, I wouldn't be surprised that she is pretty damn good coming out of the Tiger transformation. Anyway, interesting to hear...

From Campus Morning Mail - A daily Tertiary education newsletter Swinburne and the Tigers kick on Swinburne University and Richmond Football Club are expanding their diplomas in sports development and leadership to Albury-Wodonga. Murray-side students will go to class at sports centres in...

Rohan Connolly has a piece that reflects what a lot of us are thinking. He pulls apart some the common wisdom with stats and analysis - or at least more than most journos could be bothered with. Most people think the Tigers are still (underneath) pretty poor. It's just luck that keeps us on top...

Jake Niall on why the Blues fans don't care much :p, and why the Tiger army is so engaged, angry, involved, passionate and caring :thumbsu:. http://www.canberratimes.com.au/afl/carlton-blues/why-blues-fans-lack-the-fire-of-the-tigers-20180216-p4z0lz.html Couple quotes The most persistent and...

Interesting article http://www.canberratimes.com.au/afl/afl-news/mindfulness-and-meditation-helped-richmond-break-afl-premiership-drought-20171103-gzed1o.html Unusual historically. But not surprising that this team and the current RFC are into such advanced and non-traditional ways to be...

http://www.canberratimes.com.au/comment/footy-brings-me-joy-when-the-world-seems-to-have-gone-mad-20170907-gycj2o.html Leader of the Greens is a Tigers nut!!! And well spoken/written I loved the bit toward the end Over the years I've wished my parents had named me Carl or even Colin. Not this...

Article on using Pilates and ballet for injury prevention at Tigerland. Focus is on the Injury Prevention person, rather than the club. Features Maric and Conca doing stuff. I presume that when they interviewed the lady those 2 were doing recovery work and had a chat with the reporter...

Thought this might interest people. Ran across this video on fivethirtyeight on the NBA draft. http://fivethirtyeight.com/features/chances-are-your-team-is-not-picking-the-best-player-in-the-nba-draft/ Core take away for me is that the NBA drafts 20-22 year olds that have been in an...

Just found this on the Mian Board thread 'Rules Changing AFTER Trade/Draft Period' Goes to prove Grigg is our second ruck!!! He's out no. 1 third man up. Grigg the ruck is no joke!!

Anyone know anything about this? Interesting thing for the club to do. Going deeper into the health industry, alongside managing health clubs. Swinburne U has established a two-diploma programme (sports management and development) in conjunction with the Richmond Football Club. There is no...

Given we still haven't spent our 'warchest' TM and the 12 EFC players will have their contracts torn up due to breach of contract. https://au.news.yahoo.com/thewest/sport/afl/a/30566332/banned-bombers-can-walk-out-on-club/ So should we try and pick the eyes out of who is around? Heppel...

Just noted on the RFC site teh video on VFL player pushing for AFL selection that McBean has improved and it was put down to TV pushing him on the track. Interesting to me as I have never before heard TV acting as a mentor or pushing other players. Don't know, but I wonder if some of TV's...

Ladies, Gents and any others watching, I've just joined. I've been a Tigers fan for about 40 years - Yes I am a masochist. I enjoy the discussion, especially on drafting, team development and how the game is run (technical type stuff). Looking forward to spending mroe time on here. Cheers...
