Title: No other club wouldn't/couldn't have lost that game except Richmond: Barrett
Post by: one-eyed on May 19, 2017, 12:18:47 PM
From Barrett's Sliding Doors column today:

RICHMOND

IF ..... it was any other club last weekend ...    

THEN ..... it wouldn't have lost. Couldn't have lost. And yet, because it was this club, not even a surprise that it happened.

The old girl was all excited 'yes we've won', but the old man said 'don't count on it, there is still 21 seconds to go'.  :lol

Typical Richmond

And that's the reality of following this shot hole club.

We ALL now expect to lose...which is hardly a healthy state of mind

And yet if anyone dares think differently a majority of this site will take it upon themselves to bring the other down to their level. Maybe it's a result of the supporters and not so much the club...

Those supporters are easily influenced. Collingwood blew a game one day earlier but the media focus on the "story".
Eddie McDire has more clout than most of us know in media circles.

This muppet should shut the ____ up .

If ever there was a team that could rival Richmond's ability to snatch defeat from certain victory its Barretts own North Melbourne .

How many debacles have they had during Scotts tenure.  Heaps .

It's just coz we're richmond. Heaps of other teams lose close games or give up leads. Look at Melbourne just this year, Collingwood, north over the years as mentioned.
Hawks 8 game losing streak to the cats.

YES. Why shouldn't the media be all over how comical it is to be a supporter of this club.

I hope the media give them all they've got.
