Richmond vs Fremantle @ Subiaco Oval - Round 10, 2015

[The Machine]

Watching the replay & it's such a great feeling this morning 

That was a great win for the Richmond football club & the supporters against a club undefeated & on their ground with their crowd. But those Tiger supporters who attended done the team proud as Rewoldt acknowledge were terrific.

But thinking that the last 4 wins have been over teams considered as Top 8 & flag contenders makes it all sweeter to keep the media at bay & the other club supporters in hell.

Collingwood
Port Adelaide
Essendon
Fremantle

All the above were supposed to destroy us. Several considered to be premiership contenders 
Our players are starting to mature & now know what is required to play as a team & win. The amount of pressure we are putting on teams forcing them to make mistakes everyone used to taunt us about. Our % is of a team playing good football. Another 10 games in these players & their confidence high. They could place themselves in a position to achieve what the Dawks done several years ago unexpected. Beware the Tiger is awake & so is the Tiger Army. 

have a nice day. Enjoy it at the bar at the local footy  Wear your colours proudly & don't forget to taunt those other vile supporters who used to taunt us, As their clubs make horrible forced errors & miss easy goals & lose to the Yellow & Black

Two themes spring to mind over the past 4 weeks.

1. Consistency of effort and intensity
2. No passengers

Keep this up and I have no issue with our coach/coaching staff.

You can see every single player even the ones that have a quiet game are having a red hot crack. No weak links. All it takes is one or two not to run hard both ways and bang you get cut up. I don't want to bring negativity into it bc Im on a stuffing high, but I am dreading seeing Newman get back into this side.

and for the first time in Dimmas tenure, 3 big forwards is working for us structure wise. Whichever combination of  Vickery/mcBean/Griffiths with jack, they are spreading a lot better and stretching opposition defenders. And I noticed they are now going to the pockets to force stoppages at the right time ie under fierce pressure and when outnumbered, otherwise they are now looking for better options and hitting them up.

Good work all round

Hardwick has hit on the right mix. he has his team but he has added 4 kids to the mix - McIntosh, Ellis, Menadue and McBean. That's the right mix. Hopefully we will see 1 or 2 more get a chance because at some stage the kids above will start to tire. Personally Id like to see the likes of Jayden Short and Daniel Butler get a chance but I fear the kids will be replaced by players like Newman etc.

He can't go back playing Newman,Thomas or Petterd surely we look so much better withe kids in.

[tony_montana]

yep spot on, its no coincidence that the overall effort and energy of the side has gone up notches since we brought kids in. A poster nailed it in another thread(may have been you) that when you take Newman, petterd, Lloyd and Gordon out of the side and replace them with hungry and classy kids, things change...

Add Lennon and castagna to the mix too as the season progresses.

I can't tell you all how great this win was.

Being a passionate Richmond supporter who lives in Perth ....this is like beating Carlton x 1000

I own a business 10km from Fremantle . I am surrounded by Dockers supporters. They have been insufferable this year .

The amount of mockery my customers have given me over the course of the year for supporting the tigers is unbelievable .

Can't wait to see their stupid shocked faces as they come in over the next couple of days. I've got a very long memory. One bloke in particular always goes on and on how we have no leadership at the club.

Got quite a bit of teasing in the week leading up to the game .....now my phone has gone completely silent ....I can literary hear crickets .

Running is a major passion of mine - will be running in my favourite tiger singlet that's for sure . Be flying the flag with pride.

Next it's the other local teams turn to face the music - can't wait !!!!
