My mate Massa

[Croat tiger]

Sorry for the Sombre thread fellas but I lost a great tiger mate to a car accident few weeks ago and I normally wouldn't write stuff like this here but I thought i'd pay tribute to him because he was a mad keen passionate tiger supporter.Here is a quote from his boss in an newspaper article about him.

Mr Dobbyn said while most unionists were obsessed with industrial and political issues, Mr Massaria would first turn to the sports pages after picking up a newspaper.

"Wars could break out, governments change, droughts, bushfires, even gangland slayings always took second place to the Richmond Football Club -- it was no contest," he said"

The part about him going straight to the back of the paper to the sport section to look for any richmond news reminds me of myself. RIP Massa and sorry tigerboyz for your loss.

He will be smiling down when we knock off the Blues round one.

Sorry to hear about your loss mate.
It does put things in perspective though. I am embarrassed to say that sometimes I take the results a bit too seriously. Losing a member of the Richmond family reminds me that we are all united by a common passion and that's what makes it a pleasure to be a member of the Richmond footy club, through thick and thin.
You have my deepest sympathy and respect.
