What's their problem?????

[Tassie27]

Hi again,

Just been on the main boards alot and the anti Richmond trolling is unbelieveable. We are rivalling Geelong atm. What is the problem, it seems they want to point out EVERY thing we have done wrong and rub it in our faces. A lot of comments often have nothing to do with the OP and are just quick swipes back. Why do we invoke such hatred??

Sorry shouldn't be so sensitive but it just gets my goat.

Alright I am going to go and take out my anger on the vacuum cleaner.

Cheer

We're an easy target Tassie, especially with the Hawks winning on Sat. Just duck your head, try to avoid the cross fire and move on. Mind you, it's interesting that the thread on the main board getting most of the response was started by A Carltank supporter.

They can go and get stuffed

They still hate us passionately even though we have done zilch in 25 years ... i'd rather that than the sympathy trolling that clubs like the Dogs and Aints get.

My advice is steer clear of the main boards, the Dawk fans will be unbearable

They are all jealous of the sleeping giant. No other explanation

It is nothing more than fear. They all know we're coming good and most of them are getting their last licks in before we surpass them.

good call rt, that about sums it up

 

[tony_montana]

um sorry to spoil the party, its not fear lol

its the fact that so many tiger supporters shot their loads prematurely at the end of 2004 with the wallace appointment and drafting tambling. Hawks fans copped it incessantly, took it on the chin and now give it back with interest, which is what some of our idiot posters deserve.

fear lol

was no more than a pissing contest banter at the time TM, they came out on top and are showing their class, I'll let you be the judge on whether it's deserved or misplaced arrogance. twas only 12 months ago that the hpped variety were skiting about a dynasty that ultimately lasted as long as ch 7 rerun of gladiator...I prefer to keep my powder dry

bo the bottom line is they have a premiership, we'll never be able totake that away from them. winners are grinners and we'll just have to take it on the chin and keep trying...

Don't think there were a lot of Hawks fans copping it on the chin when they were shit, I recall there were plenty still out there slugging away despite overwhelming odds. Now they actually have the ammunition to back up their claims, while we're still hoping to score the odd dent they can just blow us out the water. Yet there will still be those amongst us who keep on punching away and eventually we'll be the ones who are firing the heavy artillery.

After Harleys "greatest team of all" and Clarkson's "we're a happy team at Hawthorn" it will suffice when Wallace mentions, whilst raising the Cup, that famous phrase:

"We are..............from Tigerland!"

 

[smasha]

Get on board next year.

 

[True Thylacine]

Frankly I dont care what their problem is. I prefer to stay on this Board almost exclusively rather than try and reason with rantings of the long term unemployed and pimply faced youth that tend to stalk the corridors of the main board. Besides they won...and good luck to them. I am sure we will be just as humble when we do...lmfao

Looking at the content of some of the posts its gotta be penis envy I reckon... or whatever the female equivalent is!

What's galling is that many posters are non Hawks.

Good luck to Hawthorn.

Great result after an excellent year gives them "the right" to laugh it up for a while... it's part of the bonus of being a "grinning winner".

Dicks from other clubs are just joining in to get a cheap shot away.

They should be using their time off in the holidays to improve their grades though...

 

[THE_GUN]

its really funny isnt it.
i dont mind the dawks supporters, but the carlton supporters are the ones that really make me laugh.
first they compare tigers 04 to the dawks yet dont mention that they were in the same position at that time as well and what have they done.

if you compare tigers v dawks v tankers clearly the winner is hawthorn
but the most pathetic team of all three teams are the tankers.
3 consecutive no 1 picks
1 c.judd (best player in the afl )
the easiest draw of all the teams (played both dawks & pussies once)

yet they claim that going from 15th to 11th was a successfull year
no significant injurys either.

KNOW they actually trhink they will be a top 4 side.

i really dont know if i should laugh at them or pitty them for being so dillusional. crap coach,crap defence,crap fowardline and they think they are a top 4 team.

 

[tiger_12]

maybe but dont forget nine of thier players are taking drugs

 

[Bojangles17]

**** them and all they stand for

Someone gave us an overdose of sleeping tablets it appears. We're in a permanent slumber.

Then can we have whatever they're taking...

 

[Tigerman20]

Am I missing something but why does the Hawks premiership have anything to do with us?

Exactly, who cares about the Hawks..

It's fear that makes them focus on the Tigers.
Fear because they know that we've now set ourselves up brilliantly. The next era for Richmond will be a long one chock filled with flags, rather than one hit wonders like Geelong or Port.

It's been long time coming, but recent execution of a brilliant plan willl guarantee a Tiger dynasty, populated with premierships.

Well done to TW and his team for building a culture and framework of excellence, making Richmond the team destined to become the new standard everyone will aspire to
