You're a superstar Alex Rance

None of them would know or remember what really happened in 1997.

We've given rance " the greatest defender ever" so many hidings lately lol.. can't s**t till next week.

 

[hey shorty]

I'm lapping this up as much as they are.

 

[asdfasd]

Where were all of these Richmond supporters during the rest of the year? All of a sudden they're pulling 95,000 every week?

 

[Grooster24]

Lol. That kid who pretended to give Eddie a Wet Willy on Fox.

 

[Wurundjeri]

Going to be like 97 all over again. All the focus on the Victorian fairytale of a team who haven't won in ages.

Not so, I’m a Victorian and a passionate Hawk. This is the Australian Football League and I assure you there’s plenty of folk rooting for the Crows. Please do it boys! Go you Crows!

Eddie is incorrect - the duty of care is NOT on the player going for the ball. The AFL and the Tribunal have ruled time and again that the duty of care is to your OPPONENT.

Funny tried to visit the Richmond forum. just heard crickets.

 

[Cap]

Anyone else have a Facebook full of flog port supporters suddenly keen on Richmond

We are talking about the Victorian media, not the general footy going public who have been pretty good at games that I go to.

He's had 2 incidents this year. Even a fine rubs him out. They'll have to dismiss it completely for him to play in the GF.

 

[Runnin Blue]

Eddie McGuire just said Richmond will be wearing yellow clash at this stage.

 

[NikkiNoo]

Got to laugh that Eddie was actually texting Gil about the guernsey and surprise, surprise, Gil seems to have caved to the right decision.

He knows this Nikki, he is just trying to put doubt into the discussion ... and create a way out for the MRP.

Same as his insistence that they will be at the supreme court on Wednesday if he gets suspended.

 

[Simmo28]

They have the talent, its development and coaching you should be questioning.

Yeah exactly, that was my question, where has the talent gone? It's either been traded on or hasn't been developed. I am guessing more the latter.

We need to pressure them like they have never been pressured before. They will make mistakes and we will capitalise from their turnovers.

 

[kirky]

If Martin wins the Brownlow ... shades of Robert Harvey...

Another 1997 reference!

Danoz

shooting looked a bit too cheesy

outstanding

 

[Danger in Texas]

Common sense wins out, thank christ

 

[Redleg Crow]

Make no mistake - this will be a hard tough match. But we are up for it. Those losses to North, Melbourne and the Hawks were the perfect wake up call that we needed

 

[DD#23]

I honestly wish we could both wear our home guernseys with Richmond in the white shorts, but this is the next-best option.
