And those figures are skewed against us because we had a home game in Cairns.  Will be better again next season.

Dawks are soooooo full of poo.

Proof is that they are not a big four club and never will be a big four club.

Their home game against us and Punt road end looked empty. 60k+ and 70% of spectators were yellow & Black and they're on top of the ladder! What a bloody disgrace! Shouldn't be allowed to call the MCG their home ground! Bunch of imposters!
The club that keeps giving.

We need to lock in a deal with MCG that Punt Road end is ours, Home or Away

Pies have City end so if we play them no dramas

Blues, Hawks, Dons, Dees, GTFO of our end bros

I'd imagine that the Blues would be up there had they won a few more games this year so it just goes to show you that the big 4 are still the same clubs as the 70s.
I would've thought the AFL would love the original Big 4 Melbourne clubs, and one club from each of SA, WA, NSW and Qld each year in the finals to bankroll those poorer clubs to keep making up the numbers for broadcast rights  :thumbsup

Shouldn't make an iota of difference, don't think it will

2nd last home game of the season folks will turn up  :thumbsup

Agreed. Its our spiritual end. Punt Road end is synonymous with Richmond. We need to up the marketing side of it on our memberships and the like.

Dees should be pushed to the members wing. Dons to the sharps room. Blues to the car park with a box of coathangers.

the AFL should have kicked out some clubs years ago and thats why we have an unwieldly competition with an uneven fixture. If you asked them today if they could start the AFL again how they would do it and it would go something like this

1. Richmond
2. Collingwood
3. Carlton
4. Essendon
5. Geelong
6. Hawthorn
7. Sydney
8. Western Sydney Giants
9. Brisbane Lions
10. Gold Coast
11. Adelaide
12. Port Adelaide
13. West Coast Eagles
14. Fremantle

The player pool would be much better quality and the quality of footy higher still.
