Ramps (10Flags) will claim he was ahead of his time and the Club has pinched his idea from 7 years ago
SOS Mark 2- Ramps Style: Operation 60,000November 30, 2004
4 million dollar debt is shocking, but we have one thing that no one can take away and thats the supporters. We were first to a million supporters in 1980. Theres hundreds of thousands of yellow and black devotees, so i have my solution and its Operation 60,000.
Richmond should just come out and try and blow away all opposition when it comes to membership numbers...my view is one day all of the big clubs will be parading membership numbers of between 50-60,000 people. So why not do it now! A fully fledged campaign...to get 60,000 for 2005- thats an increase of 33,000 members- people will say im peeed but i know one thing Richmond supporters love their club...come out...lay it on the line...60,000 to blow away the pies and the dons, to pay off our debt and have money in the bank by end of 2005.
Whose with me lol

tiga is famous for his parodies
. We are still waiting to sing Halleluja though
Halleluja (sung to the tune of Halleluja by Lenoard Cohen and also performed by Jeff Buckley)
Well a message came down from the board
The way we play doesn’t please the Horde
But you don't really care for losing, do ya?
Well we know we need mindset shift:
One week we fail and the next we lift
The banner makers are praying Hallelujah
Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah...
Well our faith is strong but we need the proof
A shining light through the phone box roof
A player with class and skill that will thrill ya
Well Richo’s finally kicking straight
And Brownie’s leg is feeling great
And Cogs and Newy are running Hallelujah
Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah...
(Yeah but) Baby We've been here before
A promising team that has hit the floor, (You know)
But there’s something different this time I tell ya
Well we’ve strengthened up from front to back
and gained some more skill in attack
And all the fans are screaming Hallelujah
Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah...
Well there was a time when we were so low
When Danny Frawley ran the show
Tears filled our beers and depression that would kill ya
Then Wallace came and cleaned the slate
The ferals love and no longer hate
And finals are in sight now Hallelujah
Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah
Hallelujah...
[Instrumental]
Maybe there's a God above
And at last we give the eight a shove
And no inconsistent form… that would fool ya
Now there’s no more tears on Sunday night
Cause the players have finally seen the light
Now Tigerland is singing Hallelujah
Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelu...
Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelu...
Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah

Frawley copped it big time in the early days before 2007 (before any blame and anger from supporters switched onto Wallace).
Ox had his 101 things Frawley did wrong as coach thread
And Frawley's whole footy career as player and coach was summed up in this thread titled "Remembering Spud"
As a player
1984 - Wooden Spoon
1985 - Wooden Spoon
1986 - Wooden Spoon
1988 - Wooden Spoon
As an Assistant Coach
1999 - Wooden Spoon
As a Senior Coach
2002 - 3rd last
2003 - 4th last
2004 - Wooden Spoon

I had my Spud Season pics which could equally now apply to the gameplan under Plough
