Remember when …,
« on: May 05, 2024, 05:04:05 PM »
Remember when we all scoffed when Josh Jenkins made a bold early prediction last October that the Tigers were a strong chance for the spoon.

Well that looks like a very astute assessment at the moment.

Currently , I would have no confidence in us beating either Hawthorn or North Melbourne . We would only be favourites based on reputation.

Well he’s gotten lucky because we wouldn’t be in the running if it weren’t for injuries. Not say we would be a lot better but I think we would win atleast 2 more.

At full strength, Richmond are a 7th-13th team, not a bottom 4 team AT FULL STRENGTH …

Whatever predictions he makes that come true doesn’t change the fact that he is a spud

Inb4 AFL give Norf another priority pick and we add to our record of being the only club to finish last and not receive pick 1....(club should take the bastards to court if that happens)  :shh

We finished last and got Brett Deledio for pick 1?

2007 we finished last but Scumbaggers who finished second last got pick one under the priority pick rules - turned out alright for us in the end though... :shh

REPEAT

SNIP

I'm in a foul mood so any baiting and trolling will be removed

And keep it up and I'll be handing out stirkes

Yes I am that peeved

Report posts and then abuse mods for not removing stuff, then this what you get

As I said the other day be careful what you wish for you may not like the final result

We are an ok team on paper - but Prestia , Lynch , Hooper and Gibcus just can’t get on the park . We are even seeing the value of missing second tier players like Ross at the minute.
