Think there was a lot of positives, easier to point out the negatives!
Need someone to help jack, miller once again shows he is no good
When the heats on, damn you vickery!
Ditto Maric, get someone that can help him will go a long way
Damn you mongo and vlc! They were out on their feet and I really
Thought we had them, just needed more poise in defence. Grimes
going down was a major blow but we are getting there, can't really
ask any more from the likes of Ellis, just needs time!
Jackson doesn't cut it and sorry but neither does king. Iron
these out and we are kicking the freakin door down.
Hate to say it, another honorable loss & please not again next week!!!!!

You have never been positive, we could have won by 10 goals and you would still find something to whinge about, why don't you stuff off and get over it....

NO positives.
We lost a game we couldve won. Newmans 200th game and the players didn't win it for the captain. How can anyone say anything positive.

For me the single most important aspect i have seen develop this year in this team,is "a never say die attitude".yes we lack poise and maybe still a little rough around the edges ,but this attitude,  this team has will carry us a long way in the long run.And yes many of us here have bagged jacko and edwards for their wayward skills,however these 2 also have this "never say die attitude"in spades.For now anyway i am more than happy to have both these guys in the team
And dont forget last night we almost won with Grimes missing for most of the game ,and jacks scoreboard contribution being minimal....Yes we missed on getting the 4 points ,however we got more out of this game than what the Dons did,and finally commentators are looking at this Richmond team and saying ......they are coming

Just about everything bar our forward line which in itself is a blessing because  if our side can score a tonne with only one goal (sorry just read it is 2 )between our KPF's then we are seriously going to murder  a side when we finally get everything to click

Dimma's passion!

Loved it when he did his head in with the Maric holding the ball/ 50m decision.

Bleeds for the club and the players play for him. Will coach our side for many years and will have success. May come in 2 or 3 years but it will come.  The team reminds me of Geelong circa 2001. Young but the elements are there. Two or three more vital cogs and it will all fall in place.

We are very close to being a very good side. We need a couple of decent midfielders with pace and who can get their own footy. We need to replace Nahas and King with 1 quality forward pocket who can take a turn in the middle and play abit outside and we need a big key forward. These players probably need to be as close to Agrade players as possible. Blair Hartley needs to find us another player. Sounds like a lot but 2 midfielders, 1 forward pocket and Key Forward. We will be able to find the first 3 in this years draft with any luck.

WE LOST!!!

Mr Tigra as much as it hurts all of us to lose whether by 19 or 119 what gets me is rather than focus on the result and the way we came to that result you focus on the last 30 years. It just makes me wonder that maybe just maybe it is easier for you to deal with us losing because those emotions are in the forefront of your mind body and soul than focus on the fact that in years gone by we would have lost that game by 90 points not 19 and that slowly but surely this side is getting its poo together on and off the field and you know what proved to me last night:
That this breakthrough win is closer than ever before and when it happens I will unload alm my frustration and ridicule of all that hurt and anger into a tumult of joy and merriment and I will enjoy it like I have never enjoyed myself at the footy.
You can sit there and talk about 30 years of this and that and jump on the bandwagon when we are two years down the track and you've realised what the golo am I doing I could've felt like this years ago.  Most here have hit puberty and are looking at the cute girls you still hear the word bum and boobs and snigger with childish embarassment.

the reason he does that is he is soft. It's all too much for him so he feels a need to impose his misery on to everyone else and by dragging everyone else down to his level of misery it will somehow make it easier to deal with.

Can not agree more with people.We all thought our backine will hurt us this year ,but the area we thought was strong the forward line has failed.Grimes huge loss.Vickery may not have been at 2011 form .butboy doeshe hurt our structure and team balance.He reliefs Maric and is a genuien target up forward unlike Miller who does the 1% ,but cant kick or mark.

Thought Edwards' game was great.

Great that we are fighting games out. Last few years we fall 7 goals behind and it would have been a 15+ goal thrashing.
