News Richmond Doco: On Track - Documentary on RFC Website

[GoTigers2015]

Does anyone think Tyrons trade value went up or down after watching the doco? What would potential suitors think after seeing how he goes in the inner sanctum? Would they be impressed by his cat collection and his love of Johnny Rambo or do you think he might be a little bit weird and there for change their opinion on what they'd offer us if he doesn't have the best year or whether he's worth trading for at all?

Thoughts ?

His inner peace joke was pretty poor.

I enjoyed it.
Loved the Morris family, especially Jan. What a ripper.
Loved the Chocco-Dusty thing.
Most importantly I liked how it humanised the players for us. At the end of the day, they are just human beings like us who have feelings and emotions.
We are way too harsh on them sometimes...perhaps a lot of the time.

If you've ever played sport, it never goes your way all the time and you are trying your hardest for it to happen. We must remember this regardless of they are full time. But that is the industry we are in.

Agreed.

Although Vickery frustrates me, we as supporters are kicking him while he's down. I know you're referring to all players in general, but Vickery cops the worst of the supporters views. He was hyped for 2 seasons in a row and failed to deliver. This is partly Richmond fc fault and plenty of his own. Reece Mckenzie private messaged a fan page asking for the admins to address unnecessary comments towards Ty. The players see things that are written and I could imagine it would wear them down. However, I do understand that this is part of a life as an AFL footballer. Hopefully for Vickery he can produce his potential and break himself free of the negative criticism he receives by producing a successful season onfield.

 

[Smoocher]

Great insight into the club. Enjoyed it immensely.

His inner peace joke was pretty poor.

Just weird , talking about his footy and how he needs to find consistency and then straight into the worst stand up comedy routine you'll ever see. Other clubs recruiting staff will look differently at him after seeing that.

His quirky nature seems to be popular in the group. Don't think will go against him.

Just finished watching the doco, Ty was absolutely fine.

Still cringing at the footage of players fighting, especially Gordan and Vlastuin thinking they're boxers.

Every club looking to bolster their forward stocks are willing to pay overs for an under performing forward with a temper that loves spending time outside of footy with his two cats Rambo and Dozor. Makes perfect sense

Yeah its just a general perspective, but we as fans like to vent. Badly.

It was uncomfortable watching Dimma and Chappy argue. With an attitude like that Chappy may not play all games if fit. Discipline him. VFL

If that is enough to get a player dropped... Wow. No issue there at all. Chappy & Co stuffed up. Hardwick gave it to them. They tried to explain. Hardwick said no dice. They moved on quickly to not lose any further ground in the race.
Overreact much?

I,now, I read about the incident here before I watched it and to say I was left underwhelmed after I watched it would be a massive understatement. Nothing in it whatsoever.

I think you have an unrealistic idea of what goes on at AFL clubs if you think he should be disciplined for that.

 

[Tiger_Of_Old]

Finally got around to watching it last night.
Like i said in the other thread.
Smells like we have got ahead of ourselves again,And are satisfied with back to back finals.
Hope it was worth it.

Sorry tiger, beyond me how you take from that vid that we have got ahead of ourselves.

Spot on.... They boys trained.... there were cameras there.... the end. Great marketing, not a lick of difference to the players performance.

 

[Calcium Man]

Really not sure that would be very interesting to many outside us hardcore tiger fans.

I enjoyed it.

The Vickery hating is just pathetic, he was mildly amusing and the boys love him. I thought he must have done something shocking when i read the comments on here.

The Chaplin thing to is well overblown, got put back in his place and so he got on with it.

The rest was pretty amusing but there really was not a lot of depth to the whole doco, it didn't really tell you anything that most on here wouldn't have got from watching the videos all summer. That being said i'd watch it again because i'm a tragic.

 

[Mr Unbelievable]

Just watched it, enjoyed it immensely!!!

lol with Rambo named after cat, I had a pet named Rambo as well

 

[NZ_Tiger]

I've run similar things and people always try to rule lawyer and take short cuts or abuse any ambiguity.

Pet what?
Very suspicious lack of detail here.

Thats ok Turtle.Just me thats all.

heck, imagine the reaction on here if the cameras were on 24/7?
Those sorts of disagreements and hard words from the coach happen every day. There are always semi fights/arguments going on.
Do people really expect it to be just really nice and happy clapping all the time?

The Chocco-Dusty relationship was the highlight for me.. what is has provided Dusty off the field is clearly priceless and seems to be paying dividends with him footy...

It was a grey rabbit, FFS Rumballs, why did you call me out
