Eh, who gets into the HOF is pretty meaningless really. O'Loughlin was a great player for the Swans for a long time; held their games record, holds their goals record (I think). Did some dodgy shit off field, but Akermanis is a well established ********, but no one is batting an eye at him getting in? Better player, sure, but if on-field performance should dictate who gets in then I think O'Loughlin deserves it.
Though to join in the tin-foil hat party, he probably got in 'early' because he plays for Sydney. Gotta sell the game to the neanderthals north of the Murray.

You filthy peasant.

There have been many players do more on the field than Meeky O who aren't in the Hall of Fame. Wouldn't be much of an honour if a third of the competition were in it. Maybe it should be renamed the Hall of Adequacy.

It was self-deprecating, I too live Norf of the Murray.
I agree there are blokes who've probably done more than him who aren't in there yet, but all things considered, he was a good player over a long period and I think is deserving of being in the HOF.

Enough said... If he deserves to go in then every 300 game players should go straight in

I guess Cotchin chose to kick with the wind? Seriously though, pretty amazing scoreline. I'd have given the Tigers a chance to pinch it (they've done alright vs Freo in Perth of late, and how like Richmond to lose to us but beat the undefeated), but not like this.

I didn't watch this game and obviously haven't watched enough of either team because going by the versions we played I just don't see how this result was possible.

Freo were a bit off tonight.

Richmond have turned it around considerably since they played us. Look a much better team than a few weeks ago.

A club needs to take one for the team and hire Lingy as a coach. **** me he's annoying.
Yup, he gives the viewer absolutely nothing. I thought Richo took Cpt.Obvious boundary riding to the extreme but this ******* is on a whole new level. Its making my ears bleed.

When he waffles on about which team wants the next goal, I'm tempted to knife my own ear drums.

"Fremantle are 5 goals down with 10 minutes to go, you think if Richmond get the next goal it's going to make it hard for them. Richmond really want the next goal to ice this one. On the other hand, Fremantle will be keen as mustard to get the breakthrough and really make a game of it. This next goal is so important."

Years of playing at the top level gave him that insight on how competitive sport works.
