I just saw footage of Dimma finding Bucks in the rooms after the game giving his congratulations. I also watched the post match press conference where he gave us credit for the game. It was respectful. He thought we were the best team Richmond played all year in our losses. We got them tonight.

Yep, Dimma, an absolute gentleman. Handled himself with aplomb.

Said it like it was. Couldn’t really disagree with anything he said.

I still remember him picking us as the best team of 2010 before anyone in else in the league was talking us up.

Always though he was a very good coach with a crap list. Reminds me of MM with his ability to extract some gold out of rocks.
 
Very gracious in defeat dimmma was, earned my respect. Class act last night by him.

Alot of respect for Dimma, he has trodden the same road as Bucks with people wanting his head on the chopping block, and then resurrected his career, just as Bucks has done this year, who may well end this season as a premiership coach....
 
I remember Bucks stuck up for Dimma a few times when he was under the pump earlier in his career when we were good in the first half of the season. Dimma did the same for Bucks last year. There’s a bond there.

They’ve had similar coaching experiences to some degree having high expectations, coming back from lowly positions on the ladder, injuries to key players, list management issues etc

Go pies hope Bucks gets the flag too

Dimma is honest and decent guy and the way he went last year probably had some bearing in Pies sticking fat with Nathan.

Good to see these guys getting rewarded, I hope we get to see Bucks the Coach get what he couldn’t as a player.

He has come so far in two years.

And big ups for Dimmas class too
 
Will be facinating how the rivalry plays out in coming years, esp if we win this year, and ... lid on, but hypothetically next year, best of 3?
