Game Day RND 1 - 🏈 Carlton v Richmond Game Day 🏈

[Thrawn]

I just want to say that my Dad, a true Tigers fan, passed away yesterday. I've been dealing with a fair bit for a while now with him, and I'm gutted right now. He said to me in 2016 that he could die happy if the Tigers could win another flag. They went crazy for him and won 3.

Now, the sentiment should be to put footy aside and wish that the Tigers could win this one ... for Dad. But Dad ... you tormented me with your smugness for much of the last 8 seasons or so. I didn't have much to offer in the way of banter during this time, and even last year when the spoon came to Tigerland, you'd laugh at my banter and then promptly forget due to the dementia.

Now one day out for what should be the crowning glory of our resurgence and Richmond being at their lowest ebb, you up and die one day before the game.

I hope we smash the Tigers from pillar to post and someone at the pearly gates tells you the score.

When your ashes are returned to me, I'm putting you on my mantle so you can watch the games with me this season, until we put you in your final resting place come spring. Now you can't avoid the scores.

I love you Dad. Talk to you at the full time siren you cheeky bugger.

My condolences to you and your family, ODNs.

I've been told Crippa will be rucking when Tom is on the bench [emoji15]

Frank the Tank must be genuinely pinching himself. Delisted by Port. Comes to us because of Newy’s ACL. Fanta does a calf and Durds does a foot (though Frank might be ahead of Corey anyway) and now he gets to play in front of 80,000, something he’s unlikely ever done in his career.

Makes sense.
We don't need 4 talls in defence.

Doesn’t get it often, but can kick goals out of his arse.

Port fans loved ripping on him; but reminded me a bit of Lincoln McCarthy

It's so good to be back. FOOOOOOTY!

Baggers by 50 odd, Harry to kick 4, LCampo to cement his place in the lineup.

You can say anything in footy.

Long as you say it with a straight face.
