Essendon did more to save Richmond than 95% of its fans. Tragic.
One thing I've always noticed, Richmond supporters always have had more modern jumpers than other clubs fans
It was a regrettable short period of poor governance in the time of a club with a long and proud history. Richmond, of all clubs, should have been grateful to have benefited through being gifted an easy finals game against the underachieving Carlton side of that year.Unfortunately you weren't able to capitalise on the opportunity. It's highly likely you would have lost by double that margin against the strong Essendon side of that year who would have more than likely gone on to win the premiership and thus benefited from merchandise sales in a similar manner to what Richmond is doing now.Anyway, I'm glad to see Richmond fans living it up after decades of underachievement. Even moreso, it's nice to see an Essendon legend holding the wheel during your successful era.
Doesn't this [merchandise sales] reflect on the type of person that supports Richmond?I mean, let's be honest. Only a certain type of person wears merch.
Have to get in quick for Tiger success, once in a life time stuff.
everything is about richmond with fox and the afl page
Evolved1 has evolved too far and has forgotten history. Sheedy. At least Sheedy played out his career at Richmond and was not forced out like Hardwick was.And Sheedy is in our Hall of Fame and Hardwick will be at some point. Crickets at Windy Hill
Hey @Adelaide_FC, I've just seen the AFL Amazon documentary trailer featuring Rory Sloane among others, and was wondering if it's possible to organise an edited version with all of the Richmond bits cut out? Still too triggering for my liking. Thanks.
Can’t watch anything to do with that gfPTSD kicks in
I’ve barely watched it once and I was there.
Back when the tigers couldn’t even beat a team that didn’t make the finals. As a Melbourne fan with Richmond supporting family, I miss these days.

FFS. After three premierships in the last 4 years, I’ve grown to really hate the Tigers. I hate every other club, just some like the Pies, Eagles, Bombers and now Tigers are really hated. 😡 Mansell is a skilled, fast, wing/half back runner who showed in the SANFL that he also has the 2nd efforts and intensity to be in the AFL system. It’d be great for Mark Williams or Tim Lamb to get his number and give him a call to see if he would consider a spot with the Dees. Tigers already have too many good players. They need to opt out for a while.
Im sure if he was a "gem" other clubs would have signed him. Get off Richmond's ****
Trent Cotchin not getting banned for bump on Dylan Shiels head in 2017 prelimBecause the head is protected in the modern AFL. Cotchin chose to enter Shiels headspace to attack the ball.The same action and result every other time to this incident has resulted in a suspension. Because Richmond was in the grand final for the first time in decades the AFL let it slide.
So up to 2017 Tigers were playing and losing to Geelong in Geelong. And then the Tigers started winning these Geelong 'home game's when played at the MCG.What a fortunate change in fixturing.Almost as if Geelong are more familiar and confident playing in Geelong v Richmond. Massive benefit to the opposition giving up home ground advantage to play where the Tigers are very comfortable v playing somewhere they rarely win.Tough away game that Geelong trip.Some teams just get a leg up from AFL fixturing and avoid playing in Geelong. Lucky Tigers. Just like being gifted an early kill against Carlton when they were rebuilding.
Great to see a WC thread on the Mb for all the Richmond supporters to continue their obsession with us. You guys really are a weird bunch.As far as advantages goes, having 10 games at Optus against traveling sides might help us limp into the 8, but that is pretty useless when you have to win multiple finals on the road from there to win a flag. If we don’t finish top 2 we’re cooked. And you need to overcome a hell of a lot of disadvantage and win on the road to finish top two when you’re not based in Victoria.The most advantaged teams are the ones which get gifted home finals regardless of ladder position. The mcg tenants.
Typical stupid reply from a Richmond nuff nuff..Totally avoided the issue......And the obvious.Only time will tell if Richmond are good enough to win in a Perth hub v Eagles.To date Tigers have played once there in three seasons. A 47 point thumping.Finally in 2021 Richmond have a challenging draw worthy of being the premier team. Multiple interstate trips and no super soft run at home leading into finals. If they win this season I will 'tip my hat'.
You forgot to mention the undisputed advantages of being an AFL pet.Avoiding playing in Geelong again. The current toughest away venue in the comp instead played at your home ground. Massive advantage over other top four teams who pay Geelong in Geelong.No trips to Tasmania. Let others do the extra travel.Eagles fans accept they need to travel. It's a given challenge we know can't be avoided.We don't accept pampered fixturing that gives the best team for the past 3-4 years a soft draw.Not hard to understand but Tiger fans don't handle facts and basic logic. Easier to just ignore it totally hey Tigers!
FJ is the only one that makes sense.
