I actually don't feel anger or frustration. I just don't care. Its gone. I laughed at the final siren.

Is this what its coming too? I'll never stop supporting us, but right now I don't care about the club.

I also can't wait for the trip to Melbourne this weekend to see us up against the Cats. :rolleyes:
 
Same.

Not hurting.

I have come to expect this rubbish.

This club will fold in the future. They will miss a generation of fans, which is the only thing keeping this club going
 
I felt the same way today. My mate was watching the game with me (eagles supporter) and he was frustrated and getting wound up, I knew we would lose at 3/4 time given we hadn't kicked a goal in the 2nd and they had piled on plenty at that end.

Just a pathetic joke, doesn't frustrate or anger me but sure pisses me off when non richmond people want to talk to me about it.
 
Yeah, just feel pretty hollow, almost not caring. Didn't like the first qtr, were playing like individuals, every player and his dog was just blazing from 50m. Saw the writing on the wall early on, despite the scoreboard. Didn't necessarily think we'd lose, but wasn't happy with the way we were playing.

Would have got mad in years gone by, but have got used to it I guess.

We lose belief in ourselves so quickly, then just get scared of making mistakes, so we back off the contest.

Conca was good when he came on, showed some leadership and direction.

Most of them need the season to finish now.

I could see this shit when the fixture came out actually. I joked about how we needed to play them in the first half of the year before GC learned how to play at all. It just shows how high Richmond have set the bar for my hopes. I'll always love the Tiges but man I'm sick of this crap they dish up.
 
Yep, I have my flights booked for the Sydney game in a few weeks time but if they keep putting up this crap I wont be going. I'll find something better to go.

Not because I'm pissed off, simply because right now I dont care. I'm numb.

The club is back at the crossroads we thought we had passed.
 
I'm not hurting, sent my membership back after last week. Will follow the club the rest of the season and that's it:thumbsu:
 
I havent been this gutted for years..
I dont know how to deal with this crap anymore emotionally..
Cant wait to go out to dinner with some friends toight and I wonder what the first thing they will talk to me about..


****!!!:(

Its just a joke .

You can be a young developing side whatever ... blah blah blah , bullshit bullshit bullshit .

Its just the same shit year after year , decade after decade .

They've showed at times they can play , its almost like they just chose not to turn up .

So why should we ?
 
Pretty empty feeling. Just numb. Not happy or sad, just meh. Kinda like when there's a draw. I think it's the worst type of feeling, footy should stir up the emotion in one way or another. Not this time.

Nope, knew this wasn't going to be easy for us.

Once again people got ahead of themselves thinking we're a genuine chance at finals. We were the worst team in the comp last year, we've turned over half our list in a bit over a year. What do you expect?

We aren't going to be playing fantastic footy for a while, we're showing patches but we're still a ways off from being consistent.
 
How true is that... kids dont follow duds.. god I should be charged with child abuse put that famous jumper on him and dragged him off to games.I saw the premierships I wanted that for my son why are they so soft even Dusty looks soft.Ok deep breath they are only kids they will get better but will they get meaner...
 
Nah, I am hurting. I'm sick of losing and I feel like the 'ride' is so important to me. I want that when we're (one day, if ever) successful that I've had to go through all of this just to be 'rewarded' at the end. I 'spose a bit like karma, not that I believe in it.

I'm not sending my membership back, not going to stop going to games, etc.

It sort of feels beyond frustration though. Helplessness is probably the best word.

I never ever thought we were going to get into the 8. I never got ahead of myself. We've gone backwards since beating Essendon, back to our old ways.
 
I am the same. Even 2-3 years ago results like this one or Port Adelaide would have left me ropable and furious with the club and players- but at least I cared and would still turn up the next week and kept following the team. This year these results just leave me numb. I am a gold member and have followed the club for over twenty years. but I have just lost my passion. I used to go to all the MCG and Etihad games but I have only been to two games this year and I doubt I will buy a membership next year. I admire the people who keep the faith and just a few years ago I though I would always be one of them but no longer - whether it is having kids or whether I have just reached my breaking point.

This would be fine against nearly any other team but not the gold coast, this loss is inexcusable....the dropped marks, the miss kicks, missed tackles and "kick and hope" kicks that we consistently resort to when pressure is applied is appaulling.

When the passion, fight and loyalty has been stripped away from the supporter base is the moment the club should fear the most

This statement should be put in front of every single person involved at the club....absolutely spot on and very scary as this could be reality in a short period.
