Why would you bother busting your guts to play footy at the highest level for Richmond?
It can't be the effort and performance because no matter how hard you work or how you perform the so called "supporters" drag you down.
It can't be passion for your club, because no matter how hard you work or how you perform the so called "supporters" drag you down.
It can't be ability because the so called "supporters", who never even got close to making the grade, drag you down.
It can't be because your dad was a Tiger superstar, because the so called "supporters" drag you down, no matter how hard you worked to achieve your own success and won, before succeeding at another club after being supported by the so called "supporters".
It can't be because you are a life member player or administrator of the club, because the so called "supporters" think you are a dud and want you out.
It can't be because you have kicked a squillion goals, because the so called "supporters" think you could never kick and should have kicked forty squillion. They also know what you need to do to correct those kicking errors, but they can't kick for nuts themselves.
It can't be because you are literate but have outstanding footy skills and know how to spell weather in the correct context whether it is raining or not, because the so called "supporters" live too close to a railway line.
It can't be because you love playing footy because the so called "supporters" don't love you because you are too skinny, too big, too fast, too many tattoos, too many grey hairs, too cute, two years too long in the system, too many injuries, too nice a bloke or too much bandwidth.
So why would you so called "supporters", who constantly knock most Richmond players, be bothered playing for Richmond, if you ever had the ability to have a chance?
