Richmond vs Brisbane @ GABBA Round 5

[YellowandBlackBlood]

I said we would make the finals and I said that I would be back to say so

Fair enough I guess but that was round 5. Plenty thought we were still a chance after a month of footy. I notice you didn't revisit the thread when we were 3 and 10. If you say that you still thought we'd play finals I won't believe you.

I was trying work out whether we should get McCartin or Petracca at that stage!!

I'll be revisiting this page at the end of the home and away season to reply with a post on making the finals....   

Or not making the finals.....

Yeah Yeah ok, if we don't make the finals I will come back here, but I guarantee you, I will be back to talk about being in the finals.

Gotta pay that

I say good for you mate, your optimism has finally been rewarded 
I just hope you don't back horses.

I NEVER stop believing until it's mathematically impossible.
But as one poster on here said, people like me who keep on believing clearly have their heads in the sand.

Of course it's hard to keep believing when there are so many losses and even when you believe, is it really belief or just blind faith for the love of the yellow and black that keeps driving people like me.
What ever the case is, I didn't post back on here at any time until we made the finals "or not" until it actually happened as I said I would.

I'm happier that we made the finals than to post on here that I FINALLY got something rite

It's far greater than optimism for me.
I spent many a year in pubs up in QLD back in the late eighties and early nineties and to walk into a rugby dominated pub with me Tigers footy guernsey on, brought more than a few looks.
Just to get a frothy from the bar was bloody hard, but always became increasingly harder as the nites went on.
Let me put it this way.

I ALWAYS STOOD UP for what I truly believed in, and that was my beloved Tigers, and nobody was gonna take that away from me, so getting into a few blues was pretty much the norm for many years.
I didn't win all those battles, but I bloody tell ya what, They all knew who the bloody Yellow and Black were.

  and stick it up em all
