Plough's aftermatch media conference / First half 'unacceptable': Wallace

[Darth Tiger]

Unacceptable game plan for the SCG,

Unacceptable match-ups against a top 6 side,

Unacceptable skill errors from professional AFL footballers.

Would be acceptable if the young fella's were playing, but it was one of the most experienced RFC sides of the year was put on the park.

Only 31 players used this year, would hope to see more new comers blooded in the last half of the season.

Wrong footwear?

Why didn't those muppet coaches ensure that the players were wearing the right boots? 

It's primary school stuff!

Disagree - we are talking about professional sportsmen here. It is up to the individual to make sure they have the right boots. Are we expectng the coaches to dress them now 

Are you suggesting if Ponting goes out to bat in a test match with cracked bat, or Lee goes out to bowl in thongs it's the coaches fault? Or if Harry Kewell wears the wrong boots it's Pim Veer Beeks fault?

Don't think so.

Whack the coach for the match ups and game tactics - whack the players for the boots

l left at halftime

WEAK.

im wearin my jumper today.

i let everyone know that you can laugh all you want at me and my team but im a die hard supporter rain, hail, shine, especially after a a tough loss.

walking out at half time reeks of "oh look at me, im in pain, why does this always happen to me?"

WEAK.

No it states that l refuse to watch ugly football by a team l know can produce a better effort than yesterday
that to me looked more like the Tanking Tigers of 2007

maybe you have no choice to wear your jumper  maybe its the only thing you own  but you better wash it, cause it must stink after yesterday 

oh look at me im so depressed my team is playing crap football, i have to get out of here and get home to my keyboard, dont you all feel sorry for me!

look we could snipe each other silly here but i must admit i used walk out all the time till a friend of mine snapped me out of it.

I must say it was quite liberating and ever since i've just made the decision, right or wrong, that i'll always stand by my team till the final siren.

opposition supporters actually respect you more when you stick tough with your team.

At the Bendigo-Burgs match last week their "cheer squad" was almighty in supporting there side even though they were getting pummelled, we even applauded them after the siren 

every supporter has their dirty days not just you, us, or richmond...everyone.

hang in there next time, barrack hard!

you might feel like a fool and yes, it hurts, but it shows others how much you really love your Tiges

[DCrane]

Don't worry blx, we have all aged prematurely as Richmond supporters, especially those of us that have sat there and watched 100+ thrashings 

[Tigermonk]

it was a pathetic rant anyway, sheesh im gettin more and more like my olds every year 

pathetic rant you say well it is Richmond Rant last time l looked
Pathetic no, you cant take the truth,  that we are rabble under the current coaching system
every other club has been down & rebuilt but not Richmond cause they always get the wrong people from other clubs who promise the world but deliver nothing cause thier no better than the last coach & only come to Tigerland cause they know they will get paid good money

talking about watching 100 point thrashings & getting old, l been watching since the mid 60's, l have seen the best & seen the worst but most clubs have seen the same, the problem with Richmond is we let too many outsiders into the club
