Fallout if Richmond loses Round 1: Healy
« on: March 21, 2012, 06:48:42 PM »
Healy, Russell and Caro are on 3aw at the moment. Healy brought up that Carlton could handle a round 1 loss but if Richmond loses again to Carlton there'll be some fallout given the rising expectations of Tiger fans and given the Blues ordinary preseason and injuries. Caro replied if it's a narrow loss (4 goals or less) there won't be any fallout but if it's a bad loss it will majorly disappointing. Caro then said she takes no notice of NAB Cup form so she is tipping Carlton although her heart is on the Tigers and she expects Richmond to make the Eight this year. Healy said competitive losses won't wash this year; Richmond has to start winning games.

I was talking to a fellow Tiger tonight on the phone predicting this exact type of comment from weasels like Gerald.
As he said, were just easy targets atm
It's that simple Spud
"I discussed (it) with my three daughters, my wife and my 82-year-old mum, because it has really affected me … If those comments … were made about one of my daughters, it would make the hairs on the back of my neck stand up. I would not have liked it at all.”

Didn't stop the sky falling in last year even though we only lost by 20 points after leading well into the last quarter - something that has been largely forgotten in the diatribe from opponents of us having the season opener each year.

If anything, it's the media beating us up, not the supporters.

The worst thing we can do is let the scum get a big lead on us, I really think we can and should win this game, not based their injuries, being underdone etc... I honestly think we are better.

But hey if we lose, we can't change it.

We lost by over a hundred against them last time up. If it's that bad again I'll be peeed off.

I think the Blues have more to lose if we win.

Hi First time post but I have been reading for a while

I think the fall out for both clubs will be the same, if its a close contest then neither club will lose much credibility however if the margin is more than 7 goals, then the heat will be on either loser

Hi TE, welcome to the forum.

I see it like this, if we get flogged we will be accused of being the same old Tigers....bla bla bla......

If we win it will be because the Blues are underdone and riddled with injury, although they only have 3 out and one more that is not a star or regular name. We also have King out....but that won't bother the press.

If the Blues do win, they will be hyped up as top 4 favourites.......no matter what happens we lose even if we win..... :-\

I think if the Blues lose by more the 7 goals the heat will start on Ratten as they have already lost all the preseason games.
Will enjoy seeing the pain in their supporters eyes as they comtemplate their season.  :shh
