To all the media personalities and opposition fans who have written the annual obituaries....Thank you!
Without you lot, our 3 premierships in the last 4 years are meaningless.

Oh how delightful it is to revisit the articles written at the end of 2016.

How amazing, to revisit the memes that were proudly shared mid 2017 about an inability to hold onto leads.

Or the post 2018 early 2019 hatred directed at Alex Rance. Remember the big big sound? 😂 How about Lynch the liability? Perhaps even 6,6,6? All were meant to spell an end for Richmond!

2020!!! The year that changed the world forever. Shorter quarters, sexual
assaults, quarantine breaches.... this will finally see the back of Richmond!!!
Geelong up by 22 points in the grand final!!! This is it!!! This is hope!!! This is what we have been waiting for.
Haha oops... 👀

So with the latest drama, from the club which has been at the forefront of being honest about their mistakes, their weaknesses, their struggles, I’m sure you’re all lining up to write the usual. What you forget is you’ve been wrong so many times before. Sometimes hope can be the most cruel thing of them all! We are the first to admit that no person, persons or club are perfect. But deep down you know that for whatever problems are at Richmond, whatever human frailty exists.... that your pathetic clubs have paled in comparison the last 4 years despite all of this. What does that say about you and your club?

So go on, write your annual obituary, or use the below. It will only make the 3peat much more delicious. 😉

“It is with great sadness in the hearts of the AFL industry that we once again announce the death of the Richmond football club” - Opposition supporters

A broken clock is right twice a day, and if you keep repeating yourselves the day will indeed come when the current dynasty is over. Until then:
Thank you for giving us meaning! Thank you for giving us the hunger!
