Courageous win!

[Go Richo 12]

Is that is one of our more courageous victories in recent time? I am anti tanker so i am biased but i believe that win will do more than tanking for earlier picks ever will! Collins' courage in that last quarter, Jacks with the flight mark in the 3rd and his sqaure up instead of blazing away shows just how far we have developed. I am in post victory euphoria at the moment but this win carries alot of weight.

Hardwick's reaction when the siren sounded says it all

Courageous Win - It was true tigers of old spirit "If we're behind then never mind we'll fight and fight and win".

I really thought when we were 33 points down in the third quarter that we were gone for the day, then Lazarus rose from the dead. Everybody stepped up in the last quarter. Cotchin had a blinder all day, Deledio was fantastic and Reiwoldt has got magnificent hands. Well done to all the boys for a great last quarter.

What a brilliant win!!! They boys really stepped up a gear in the last. I thought they would surprise this week and they didn't let me down.
Sure a few things went our way but the umps evened that up with some appaling decisions going against us. Apart from our usual standouts in Riewoldt, Martin, Deledio and Cotchin playing great all day, Moore, Gus, Nason, Vickery and of course the man of the hour Collo all had brilliant games. An then theres captain Courageous Chris Newman. The guy is a rock and that goal on the run from 50 was outstanding!!An inspiring captains game if there ever was one. Astbury with 22 possies was also great and boy can Griffiths kick. A great goal and attacked the ball all day!! I've probably mentioned almost the whole team by now but hey we had so many contributors today that in all honesty everyone played well. Even Tambo stepped up near the end with some vital posessions.

 Sure there is plenty of room for improvement but hey we just keep moving forward. Any one willing to talk the "F" word yet??

I was using the F word when we were 33 points down!

What a game, wasnt going to go today and changed my mind at the last minute.

Great comeback, you could sense all day that we were still a chance. Once we started to run the ball better we really cut through their zones.

Great game from most and what a last qtr from the Skipper!!!!

Collins was unbelievable in the last quarter. Should knock him out at the start of every match now.

So we have to knock out Conners after every match and Collins before?

A great captain's game from Newman.

Now who were those posters saying Newman wasn't a captain's whatever.

Captain pee-pee I think was the expression.

Great coach in the making Hardwick and I predict our next Premiership coach, and just to think, some were running a Rawlings for Coach campaign on the forums lol ...

Newman isn't a natural leader but he has grown into the role and is getting better and better.

The advantage of the clear out is that Newman is one of the very few older heads. There's no other older blokes apart from Cuz really who's doing his own job as a real pro. All the young blokes look up to Newman because there is no one else really to look up to. There's so much enthusiasm bubbling amongst the young blokes that a calm and steady Newman is a really good leader for this bunch.

PS. Wasn't captain pee-pee Johnson?

Absolutely magnificent win.There's nothing better than being a Richmond supporter....
I think to day we saw cotch step up to truly elite..his attack on the ball especially in that
 last quarter was awesome.

In the past I have said that we have had worthless wins. Today and the ones before havent been worthless, We have a great young coach, some very good young players ... we should all be happy with whats happening at Richmond now. Theres nothing like seeing the players winning and the supporters going nuts when we hit the front like that.
