Mini-me was quite happy with a draw because it means the kids at school who support the Lions can't give her heaps on Monday.  Of course, a win would have been even better so she could have given it back to them.

Our recruiting has clearly improved over the last 2 years and really is irrelevant to how we are going now..

Its 2004 and earlier that we are paying for now...

Do you mean to say, some of you would prefer that we had no points at all, rather than the 2 we got.  Of course the 4 points would have been preferable, but I'd take 2 over 0 any day.

It's not as if we were the only team to play badly last night.  Brisbane were just as bad.

As Denis Pagan once said "A draw is like going to a dance and ending up dancing with you're Sister". I was gutted. We should have won that game and we didn't.
I could go on about our crap captain but many others here have already voiced what I thought. Could have won it for us and didn't.

He is as inspiring as the last lettuce at the Vic Markets. :chuck

Sad :(  Can only imagine how the boys feel.  Do you really think they enjoy the crap they are getting dished up week after week.  The team go out with the aim of winning - it's that simple.  It's easy for everyone to sit back and fire off the bullets but let's be realistic.  It's a team of young guns without much experience to guide them.  The experienced guys are running around trying to do more than they should need to.  Once we get the likes of Simmonds, Brown, Haritgan and co. back it will be interesting to see how the team pulls together and how the likes of Pettifer, Bowden and Tuck lift because they won't be trying to do everything themselves.

No-one is happy with how the Tigers are travelling.  But spare a thought for those supporting the Brisbane Broncos.  Their team won the premiership last year and up till recently were bottom of the ladder (they are now second from the bottom).

I thought it was an appropriate result, both teams were as bad as each other. I was almost barrracking for that result.

But then again, I have felt a little emotionally detached from Richmond this year (that's how I cope), and wrote '07 off weeks ago.
