Crowds disappointing still

madtiger2005 · May 1, 2005

Only 21,000 today. We are winning, so what keeps the fans away? What do they expect before they start coming to games, a premiership? The closet fans usually show up to the blockbuster games and that's it.

show up against our arch enemy the blues next week.

When we play at the MCG they will come

Thrice3 · May 1, 2005

cuz no one wants to go to the Tesltra Dome...
The G will be packed this weekend, our home game too, should keep you happy MT.

madtiger2005 · May 1, 2005

We were 3 and 2 and a chance of a win. Thinking we would lose shouldn't prevent fans going to games when the team is doing well. When the team is doing well, fans should want to go to give the team the extra support which can get them over the line. Telstra dome has a roof and there is heaps of free parking at the dock behind that new coloured building which looks like it's made of lego lol.

I'm coming over for the game against Carlton, can't wait. Hopefully the numbers will start to rise now people see we are not only competitive, but entertaining to watch as well.

The crowd helped us today! I remember Pettifer tackling Lade I think and everyone yelled: BALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL and then the umpire signals holding the ball and they were all like: YEAHHHHHHHHHH

It was good and then the Richooooooooo chants

What is everyones crowd prediction for Richmond vs Carlton?
I'm thinking 45,000 - 52,000.

Tiger_Of_Old · May 2, 2005

65000+

kretchy · May 2, 2005

Hopefully it will be a massive crowd this week, especially being our home game. Both sides coming off big come from behind wins and both clubs will fancy their chances of winning.

Tigerland · May 2, 2005

Wouldn't be surprised if TW and GM fuel the fire with the Blues. The Reason? The fight is on - Bring in the punters $.

A massive game for both Clubs. Carlton are 9th on 10 points, next at 10th is the WB on 8 points. If we beat Carlton we move to 20 points and will be in the 8 safely by at least 2 games. Carlton 2 & 1/2 games adrift.

Weather was fine.
Richo's 200th game.
A chance of a win.
So where were our so called supporters ?, hang your heads in complete
shame. There was no excuse for not showing up.
Bet you will now come out of the woodwork next week.

It was fantastic at the dome yesterday. I had one of the best days ever. Roof was open, richos 200th, come from behind shellacking of an interstate club, but the crowd was schitthouse. Those of you not going cause you thought we wouldnt have a chance should be ashamed. Stop bragging about the youngsters and get out there for a look first hand. There's some exciting players on our list now.

tigerT · May 2, 2005

yes a disgraceful turnout

evo · May 2, 2005

yeh-great day at the footy.One of the best in years.

Thrice3 · May 2, 2005

MCG is going to go off on Saturday, especially when Richmond belts Carlton by 70pts.

It does get better if we knock the begeezus outta carlton. We owe them a few.

sante · May 2, 2005

Well I will be on the couch cheering for us again this weekend when we beat the Blues.

bringbackbucky · May 2, 2005

Great win guys - pity only 21,000 of you got to witness it. That will be one of those games that in ten years time over 50,000 richmond supporters will claim to have been there...
