"Oh look that's just the way it goes. We're a low tackling side and....well they were just brilliant. Sydney. Weren't they?"
Thats the problem with the whole culture at the club, we spend way too much time applauding others rather than focusing on the things we can change to be a better side. Always seem to be coached to nullify an opposition rather than just beating them by playing better and smarter.

2017 is another wasted season and is the ultimate in selfishness by the current regime. They all need to have a really good look at every aspect of how the club operates and this needs to be done by a totally external body with no conflict of interest.

The only way to retain members given the crap the side has dished out this season is total transparency and currently it feels like the decision makers are still shielding some important details behind major decisions along the way which supporters will no doubt find reprehensible once out in the public domain.

We may spend an inordinate amount of time applauding the good sides, unfortunately we don't spend nearly enough time measuring ourselves against them as we're seemingly happy to just measure our success against past Richmond sides.

So Sydney managed to square the series at 1-1 - when's the decider?  In a few weeks? Is it back in Melbourne? Reckon we'll bounce back just quietly..... :shh

Ok, just heard that there will be no third game and Sydney were awarded the series on aggregate - what a stuffing gyp. AFL screwing us over again.

Hardwicks presser after the game was a joke! Laughing and joking with media.
