Bad luck

[The_Reaper]

Bad luck to your lot this game. Really did not deserve to lose by more than a goal. Fought, hard and well even though the season is shot. Unlike some other clubs Richmond can retain their pride.

Richardson was brilliant. Showed why he is my favourite player in the AFL

You got class. Hopefully, you can leave a positive impression on your WCE supporting friends.

Thank you for your kind words. I reckon Richo is the favourite player of all the opposition fans out there. I mean, when the heat is on, who will win the game for your teams? Richo of course! Missing two shots at goal that a twelve year old would kick nine times out of ten!

And then doing a new Mal Michael, still being under the impression that we are in 2006 and not 2007. And did you notice how quickly the Richmond balloon deflated after all this?

A champion of a hole is our Richo! And when West Coast was-later- up by 30+ points Richo gets a mark at the right forward pocket (his “bad” side) and ,naturally, he kicks this time the meaningless goal. I would love him as well if I were you, love him very much indeed! Pity I am a Richmond supporter and I have had to endure crap like this the last 13 years!

Cheers Reaper. Wasnt really bad luck, had our chances, weren't good enough to take them. Good luck in finals.

 

[Stenglein's a Champ!]

Some positive signs for you blokes tonight, it was a valiant effort.

Once some of those younger bodies start filling out you'll become a much better team.

Just lacking some muscle and height at both ends.

Two quick questions;
Does anyone know why Foley was kept off?

And when will we see Mark Coughlan back?

its a shame you werent one of a few hundred eagles supporters that sat near me tonight, all ill say is they take it a bit personal when another team is having a crack and taking it up to their team.

but well done to you, should be more supporters like you.

Cheers,

Foley - Possibly a match up problem but otherwise I'm clueless.

Coughlan - Seems to be on the track again and should be right to go next year.

No one expected you to win tonight but you took advantage of our poor skills and had a really good crack at it. A few more converted opportunities and the game could have gone right down to the wire. Good luck for next year.

 

[QL 21]

Yeah, gotta love Richo - my favourite non-WC player.

Good luck with next season.

 

[krustyman]

the eagles midfield dominated the ball and was able to move the ball into arrack quickly. tigers put up a good effort in keeping in touch and got within 7 points in the last quarter, but are still short of a few good players.

your skills were down true but when we turned it over, you made us pay just about every time too.

True it was a bit of a comedy of errors at one stage. I think it may have been in the last quarter(?) where there was about four consecutive turnovers.

I remember that, there was a cheer a groan a cheer and a groan from the crowd

the eagles are so good at kicking to a guy on a lead, i was jealous.

Richo would have fitted in really well at Fremantle.

Richo's problem is running flat out 100 metres up the ground then back another 100 metres and taking a grab, by the time he kicks it he is buggered.

EXACTLY.

At training he kicked them 8 out of 10 (his words) then on the footy field his accuracy is only 60% because he is usually exhausted when he kicks.

 

[Embers]

You may not have the best team, but your club has some ripping fans. Great turnout by the Perth Tigers last night and they are really a great bunch to talk to etc. Well done on a good effort last night

Finally a real tiger supporter with an accurate appreciation of a footballer. Personally as an impersonal observer of the game I was disgusted with Richo's 22 possession, 15 mark and 3 goals 2 performance. If he had of covered a bit more territory he could have got 20 marks and showed a distinct lack of leadership by not putting himself on Kerr to tag him out of the game early.

Sure he is one of the few matchwinners at Richmond but why play him if his an average kick? Sure he is a brilliant mark, goalkicker (despite his kicking) and possession gatherer but why bother. Surely better to play Jay Schultz or Polak - with the brilliant disposal Richmonds group of matchwinners in the middle have given the wasteful Richo over the years imagine how many goals they would have kicked?

I like Sturgeon look forward to the day when we don't see Richo's crap. I'm sure without his 2 points which destroyed Richmond and his limited influence with his possessions, goals and contested marking Richmond may even have pinched this game...

Your so stupid, thats all im even going to bother saying...

He was obviously being sarcastic and hanging shit on Sturgeon. I found it amusing.

If you didn't realise I was being sarcastic i'm dumbfounded to understand how you can operate a computer let alone post a reply.

Basically I find it horrendous that some supporters and even Richmond supporters cannot appreciate how good Richo is. I could go on and on but look at one simple example - Lynch isn't half the footballer Richo is and kicked 7 goals. Imagine how many Richo would kick in a year with Kerr, Cousins and Judd supplying him?

Almost single handed he carries Richmond to a near win and there and still supporters with the "yeah I know he took 15 marks on one of the best defenders in the league but what about that point he missed in the 3rd quarter - it's time to give Kent Kingsley another shot I reckon..."

Keep it up

One of the best posts i've seen this year. Funny and objective. Thanks for putting one of our "own" back in his place about the best player we've had in 25 years.
