Big diff in % still. They would need to win by 10 goals plus and us lose by 10 goals plus also. The latter is a foregone conclusion the former a ? though

A difference of 90 points will see them jump us on the ladder. I can see us losing by 60 and them winning by 40 odd ;D

The problem with the term tanking is, it infers they perhaps could have won.

l don't think they know themselves cause if you don't move the ball forward then no-one knows.
They too busy going sideways, backwards, then up to center & then back to fullback before turning it over back at center.
l seen one piece where they were moving forward & our player looking direct at a free player 30 metres away in front of him & under no pressure he turned side on & went across ground. l deleted the game in disgust. They will not get 1 cent from me next year & l will stop all contact to me email, phones, & chuck their mail in the bin. Not 1 cent. We are worse than our darkest days.

It's so comforting to know that we have good old Betamax Jackson on the case, looking outside the box to find us another "surprise gem" like Conca & Brandon. Add to that BJ Hartley working behind the scenes to find us another Hamspud with our second round pick. Then we can all be comforted because the guru "Chocco" and his development diciples will fine tune the backwards/sideways chipping skills they need to play Dumma's bruise free, slow it right down, full ball control, hug the boundary, kick to the pockets "Blieprint to Success" game plan that we all love watching.  :rollin

Bring on 2017 because we are finals bound without even trying.  :clapping

Ive got the difference needed as 70pts as far as margins go. Might be wrong. Sydney will do us by that at least.

I was lazy and did the ladder predictor (can only choose 12-30-60-100) point wins or whatever it is. 30 point loss and 30 point win wouldn't change it but 30 & 60 would (and only just) so just went with 90. You could be right :thumbsup

suppose being a poo club thats some kind of reward pick 5 which they will more than likely waste on the wrong player

We like good accountant types, mummy's boys with perfect hair, preferably panty wearers that like the designer tattoo just so we know he's a "bad boy". Just make sure that he's got a good quality highlights package so Betamax can watch it.  :rollin

The one great thing about the RFC this season and with other poor seasons in mind is that we have been so bad at times that if we did decide to tank no one could honestly notice any difference.
 
With Benny Hill background music watch some of this seasons lowlights and for any other team the comment would be "they are surely tanking", for us the comment is "typical Richmond".

I'm guessing we will be pushed down to pick 8............Rockliff is a restricted free agent on big coin.......afl want him to walk.......that way they can give the lions a compo pick after their first.........then to top it off they will give them a priority Pickford being more poo than everyone........that way afl sees lions get picks 2,3 & 4 and a new coach to boot and we get told to tilt over further and take pick 8.......
