Richmond vs West Coast - Round 10, 2013

[Darth Tiger]

A quote from The West "Nisbett was disappointed that Richmond wore their home strip which made it tough to tell the teams apart".

Well peanut if WCE didn't change your jumper every year there would not be a problem !

The RFC away strip actually has more yellow accent, so wear your royal blue next time.

FREAKING WEST COKE WINGERS. Chardonnay sipping, game abandoning sooks.

 I heard that on the ABC just after the game.

During the game my misses said she had trouble at times distinguishing between the two.
I told her to look at their shorts, Richmond are in white, and she had no real problems after that.

These arse clowns would have had a brain explosion if they had to watch north v collingwood or rich v essendon in black and white, even more so in the mud.

Would be shocked if any club knew what jumper that rabble was going to wear on a weekly basis. Pack of sooks. Did he mention that they didn't get enough free kicks?

Don't be surprised if we get another Monday night game next year given we rated extremely well on Fox Footy with 329,000 viewers. It rated 100k more than the NRL match on at the same time.

yep, word around Subi on Monday night was that the Eagles want this game on the Monday public holiday every year and want the Tigers as the opponent.

We play ok over at Subi. The payoff for us may be that we may only have to Play Freo 1 time a year at the MCG.

Mondays are not great for fans wanting to travel I must say.

not sure they'd be keen after losing to what they'd have thought were easy beats. Don't mind the 2 Perth games like some clubs complain about. We nearly came away with 2 wins.

Real fans travel


Edited to correct the quote

[WilliamPowell]

Real fans travel

Are you suggesting everyone that didn't travel on Monday are not "real fans" Bents? And would that include your good self 

If you are and seeing I did travel then I must say you are correct  But will say it again it was bloody hard coming to work on Tuesday after the red-eye flight home

Andy D loved it ...



THE AFL is considering the introduction of more Monday night games into its fixture following the success of the West Coast-Richmond clash at the start of this week.

The public holiday game attracted nearly 38,000 fans to Patersons Stadium and significantly, a national TV audience of 345,000 on Fox Footy.

It was up against popular free to air TV shows including The Voice, House Rules, Masterchef and Q&A.

"It held its own. There's a lot to like about it," AFL chief executive Andrew Demetriou said on Melbourne radio station SEN.

"It is quite possible we will trial a few more."

While they won't become part of the weekly fixture, Demetriou said the AFL might consider a Monday night match in each market next year.
