I thought it traced back to the 80s and 90s? The whole 'We finished 9th again' thing is definitely pre-2000
Yeah you're right but If we're going back that far, lets go back to when we dominated the league for a decade.

It's a leftover from a bygone era. The Melbourne-Range Rover-Snow thing was a joke on the Coodabeens that has stuck.

You must be filthy on them for taking your spot. It's the tigers job to hold the eight up.

I can't do this. I take no pleasure in seeing a team go though this.

I wouldn't be too confident you UDL drinking flogs. We're on performance enhancing cream you know (allegedly), and it should be kicking in any time now. It has to

This banter thread has turned into a self-help group for s**t football clubs.
Too true mate
Of course, there's long been a sense of solidarity between Tigers and Demons supporters I reckon, and rightly so
Those dirty ****s. And I thought hoity-toity Aunty (ABC) was supposed to be the side of us upper-middle class toff at the MCC/MFC.
Well that's it, no more. I'm going to listen to Alan Jones and get an education on Chaff Bags.
Wouldn't be better if it were Collingwood? Or better yet, Richmond!

I came to this board to wish you guys the best, but then i saw the thread title and felt you're not in a position to be disrespectful and now I hope we win by 100+ more than ever
This is the first time we're meeting since you guys got done for tanking... We used to be on the same level as you, but this week, I hope, will show how far Richmond have come (and show you guys that it's possible to turn a broken club around).
The last team as bad as you now, was Richmond 2010.
I think you'll be good in 2-3 years. As I said when comparing us in 2010, rebuilding is an 8 year process. Richmond was halfway through back then, while you're halfway through now. So don't be fooled by poor performance - the list now has a framework to build around.
Btw, how is Frawley going? Should jack be expecting a tough day?

Frawley has been pretty meh so far this year. Although it wouldn't matter if he was going great, your midfield should be able to give Jack silver service all game so he should be in for a pretty good day I'd reckon.

autocol excellent unofficial preview, quality post. Are you sure your not Cutty in disguise?
A bit torn over this one. My head says we might need the percentage later on in the season, so I would like to win by 100+ points.
My heart says I know exactly what you guys are going through at this time and don't really want to rub salt into the wound, so a win by a low margin would be fine as it gives you guys some hope when the team put in a decent performance.
I think Melbourne will stay with us till half time at least. I do believe we will dominate some part of the game and this will determine just how big the margin will be. Will go with the popular 10 goal margin opinion.
Good luck guys for the rest of the season.

I think you stuffed up the order. Perfume enhancing cream instead of performance enhancing.

We're going to get fisted.
But we'll be doing the same thing as the Tiges in September.

Is that meant to be an insult? I think what you'll be doing in round 12 is closer to what the Tiges will be doing in September...
You guys are an arrogant bunch for a club that has been shithouse my whole lifetime.
