2010 Fixture

[F0551L]

no denying those attendance figures but I suspect the request will fall on deaf ears

From an on-field point of view it sounds as we'll have a fairly soft draw. Too bad we'll be very young and not good enough to take advantage of it  .

9 home games at the 'G  . It's been a while since we've had that many. No Docklands home games presumably against Docklands' tenants as well. Did the AFL finally wake up at how ridiculous that situation was  .

It still makes no sense that we don't play at least Essendon twice but Benny Gale has done very well under the circumstances  . Nice to finally have a voice that carries weight and the AFL will listen to.

said it 2 months ago and ill say it again

best addition to the RFC in 30 years, better than any draft pick or coach is Benny Gale.

Andy D loves him and we love him. He is a smart operator and the biggest key to our success.

He seems to be well respected in the football administration world. He comes across as some one capable of getting the job done without fanfare or headlines. During the media circus surrounding the selection of Richmond's new coach, you would often see Benny there, quietly observing. You can only respect some one who knows what to say and when to say it...and when to keep it zipped.

Actually going to a Sportsman's Night where he is the guest speaker in a couple of weeks.    Very impressed he went into bat for the club with the AFL heavy weights and was listened too!

Just proves that we finally have a man at the Tigers who can get us a better deal at the Board Table of the AFL. No more pushovers this proves that. I can also hope that Benny's clout can also replicate itself on the field and we can begin climbing the ladder. We are used to saying the fish rots at the head. With Benny around we may be on our way to being fresh fish again.

Very happy with only one trip to Perth 

Well I am not, we get to see Richmond very little as it is (games, functions, training days, family days, clinics etc...) so it would have been nice to see them over here at least twice..

Appreciate all that but Perth fans have been pretty lucky with 2 games a year for the past 2-3 seasons

But what about tiger fans in other states? Example tiger fans in Brisbane? Apart from last year's Gold Coast game the Tigers have played up there for 3 years ...they missed out

Time to share the spoils

You should try getting any sort of internet from a crappy hotel room in windy and cold downtown Joondalup.  I can't wait to catch the 'red-eye' home tomorrow night.
