Toast The crowd

[Vitalogy]

Crowd: 94,690 - Will we ever see that many Richmond supporters congregate again? The roar and song when we came on the ground was the loudest I have ever heard for a pre-game for any side.

It's a long wait to Round 1 next year but bring it on.

The crowd was unbelievable today. The crowd went mental when Ivan kicked that goal in the last quarter. That will remain a favourite memory.

 

[Cotcho]

The song at the start. Woweee. Even the roar when the banner went up. I can't wait for us to make a grand final. Wow...just wow!!!

 

[Tassie27]

The Richmond banner made Carlton's look second rate.

 

[TheAnt]

Imagine if we won the game..? The yellow and black would be heard around the country.

 

[Neen]

AFL will be licking their lips, as the giant has awoken. The atmosphere was amazing. It was a real privilege to be there, and it should become commonplace over the next 5 years. Get used to it !

The Maric goal in the last quarter brought the house down.

If only the team could too

crowd was awsome, Ive been to many GF and this was louder than any of them, and as far as i saw there was not shit going on either plenty of friendly banter but no fights or argo.

When we ran out onto the ground, that was intense and I almost shed a tear, was electric.

Crowd was like a grand final. Im gutted tonight tho after another fade out to this scum team. My pain is eased somewhat after laying $100 on them to win at $5 at half time.

 

[Equus]

Yeah. Loved the crowed. Absolutely packed to the rafters. I had a spare seat next to me though. Probably a scalper who couldn't sell his ticket. Haha

 

[Bojangles17]

I was at punt rd end when boys came to the sq for pre game rev up, crowd went wild, we just about lifted the roof off the joint,

 

[TheAnt]

That's sad

Bugger off.

 

[thecotch]

Yeah just imagine John lennon,you just keep on

Have a nice holiday.

 

[Groupie_]

Come back when you can beat us poo and wee minnows

 

[Bojangles17]

That's sad

You ****en silly campaigner

Forget one poster to ruin a thread. Lets get back on track.

The crowd was my favourite aspect for the day. 60k Richmond supporters, at least. Loved having the supporters in bays too. Ads to the experience.

The AFL does the countdown really well. That one minute to go with the daunting music and frames of players is very good. The anticipation from the crowd adds to the experience.

The roar when the Tigers came out was simply incredible. I hate to say this for anyone who wasn't there, but I took a video of them coming out and have watched the replay on channel 7 and it doesn't match the experience live whatsoever.

Richmond coming out, the national anthem and that one minute prior to bounce was amazing.

And the goals were great too. Especially Ivan's.

Just amazing. Loved it.

Outnumbered, the carlton crowd was awesome in the second half. Brilliant. Great crowd all round.

 

[rado]

Crowd was ridiculous and think we outnumbered them fairly easily. Only thing I was disappointed about was we didn't seem to kick many great goals. Apart from dustys and maybe cotch's on half time the others were free kicks or set shots so the roar wasnt as loud as it could have been. If the roles were reversed and we had come back like Carlton and kicked great goals like they did I think it would have been that loud I wouldn't have been able to hear for the next week. Oh well....next year

 

[tigs2010]

No voice no voice. Literally none. I can't talk.

Glad I'm not the only one. When the boys were standing together in the huddle in front of the cheer squad I nearly shed a tear. All the emotions & memories from the last five years just flashed before my eyes and I felt a bit teary. Just wish the boys got up, but I'm still proud. It's been a tough & long road but that will just make it so much better when we finally achieve what we set out to do!!!

 

[Bojangles17]

Funny, MM said he felt like they were playing at subiacao oval , RFC support was so overwhelming

 

[HARKER]

This crowd will be talked about for a long time and largely for The Richmond supporters.

Kudos for the passion.

What I do like is a great rivalry, one of the very best has been rekindled, great for the game and the fans

I think so. As much as we may dislike one another, you wouldn't want it any other way.

Bring on round 1 next year..........................and bring the crowd also.
