Based on the games so far it really depends on who turns up to play. The Suns should win because we're crap but if they can't be stuffed today and we bring the effort then we're a show. Mind you the reverse could happen as well and we get flogged again :-\.
-
Marlion is the sub.
NO LATE CHANGES
SUBSTITUTES
Richmond: Marlion Pickett
Gold Coast: Jake Rogers

I'm a bit peeed off that the farewell lap is after the game.
Need to get home to my kids etc.
Having a whinge.
-
Bruise free footy.
Only we can have a player streaming out of the middle and hit an opposition defender because our forwards are clueless :facepalm.
-
P2 here we come
-
Well done Maurice :clapping
20 - 18
-
We're going to win this.
-
Just as we're getting on top, the typical dumb turnover comes along and gifts the opposition a goal. Sums us up now.
Geez our mid-forward connection is pathetic. You can't play clueless forwards :facepalm.
-
Fumble fumble missed handball fumble fumble missed handball :help.
-
Surely Seth should be having a shot there. His pass got about 5m closer to goal but the angle much much worse.

Low confidence play indeed.
Disappointed.
Either that or the tank is well and truly on.
-
Seth, why give it off? :huh3.
Quarter time
Richmond 3.4-22
Gold Coast 4.1-25
Goals: Graham, Mansell, M.Rioli
6-2 up in centre clearances and 5 more inside 50s yet still behind on the scoreboard. You can't win with a dud clueless forward line ::).

Richmond 2024 = allergic to goalsTM
Our goalkicking is as embarrassing as it is amateurish. Exemplifies the drop in standards across the board.
-
Their forwards play in front to a centre clearance with smalls front and square and get an easy goal. It's not hard except for our dopes who are always behind and out of position.
-
Great goal Daniel :clapping.
-
The Suns are just feeding off our F50 stuff ups :facepalm.
-
What was that reversal for? Couldn’t tell at the ground.
-
Playing a man down with the way Kosi is playing today :help.
Why is Kmac up forward, Yze? It isn't working.
-
We're now getting smashed in the contest and unlike us they are putting it on the scoreboard.
Add our woeful skills too :banghead.
What was that reversal for? Couldn’t tell at the ground.
High contact off the ball against Kmac at HF.
-
I know our team is riddled with bad kicks but how can do many players not be able to hit the target with their handballs?

We handball even when it's the wrong option :facepalm.
-
Well that game got away from us real quick.
Kosi and Miller having absolute stinkers. Miller is getting out muscled by much smaller/lighter opponents.
-
Final Score
Richmond 3.4 5.4-34
Gold Coast 4.1 10.6-66
Goals: Graham, Mansell, D.Rioli, M.Rioli, Bolton.
Only an hour left of this unwatchable crap for the year thankfully.
-
Miller is so weak a feather could knock him over
-
We persist with the zoning , Hardwick plays man on man, poor coaching as it a not working
Can’t hold a tackle, won’t play in front and are out of position, Brown is a walking mistake today .
Our non recruiment of a key forward is disgraceful , kozzi is not vfl standard
Our kids are average , we have a very ong way to go ,
-
Does anyone know why Vlaustin isn't our captain?
-
Lots of passengers.

-
All our want always have snagged goals now.
-
Great kick from Bauer :gotigers.
Also showed he's an actual forward proactively reading that kick by Baker to mark it.
-
Seth and Hugo :facepalm
-
Another 11 point turnaround. We stuff up a golden chance and they go up the other end easily for a goal :banghead.
Banks having a mare too. About the third time he's just fumbled and coughed up the ball so easily.
-
Please do not kick towards Kosi :help.
-
We have no idea what we're doing inside F50 :help.
-
Kosi is useless
-
Seth and Hugo :facepalm
Seth’s fault, call Hugo back. Hugo had no idea what was behind him.
-
Please do not kick towards Kosi :help.
The instruction should be for Kosi to take his opponent away from the play and our players to lower the eyes and yes not kick it Kosi
Bauer should be the main target inside F50
-
Atleast that last 10mins was exciting for better or worse. Crowd is right into it now.
Pickett playing like a man possessed.
-
Kosi almost makes Ty "SideshowBob" Vickery look good.
He might be just be our worst forward since Hamspud.
It's mindboggling :help
-
3/4 time
Richmond 3.4 5.4 8.5-53
Gold Coast 4.1 10.6 11.8-74
Goals: Bauer 2, Graham, Mansell, D.Rioli, M.Rioli, Bolton, Baker.
Yep TK, Marlion gave us a spark.
Dumb forward line (aside from Bauer) means we're going inside 50 at just 34% efficiency :banghead.
-

Agree WP. And it should have been the case since the start of the game. Bauer is the only natural tall forward we have out there.
-
Oh my goodness - shut up Kellie Underwood
-
Please do not kick towards Kosi :help.
:P
Balta's fault for that option and turnover though.
-
Kosi almost makes Ty "SideshowBob" Vickery look good.

I think it was Hawthorn’s revenge for Vickery
-
Hello pick 1.

What do you suggest?
-
And that sums up our 2024. Shooting ourselves in the foot.
-
That was such a bad kick by short. Cost us a goal and any small chance we may have had.
-
We're +13 inside 50s and yet almost 5 goals down because of cluelessness :facepalm.

Thank gawd season 2024 is over. Today summed up how crap we are especially up forward and our mid-F50 connection. Once again we struggle to only 10 goals. Add our lack of basic skills and failure to protect the defensive side of contests. Anyway, bring on the draft!
-
Thought the last 1.5 qtrs was a blast to watch at the ground. Marlion really gave us a spark and the crowd was all over it. The argey bargey was great too.

Totally agree. 1st qtr was good
But the last qtr And a half where they took the game on was great to watch
Where's it been?
-
Some of our kids lack the required attack on the ball, some need to watch Picket as an example
And this zoning crap is a failure , we are too loose on the pick up , I know I keep saying it but can’t believe we are lucky to even bring the ball to ground in the forward line , we need to invest in a couple of key forwards in the draft , Lynch is a bonus not an expectation to play.
To buy in an average forward like Kosinski is not the answer
We need a tackling coach , only some senior players can stick a tackle , it’s so sad.
-
Perfect result …. Was a little nervous we might actually win and lose pick 1 .
Looking forward to adding 5-6 quality kids to our list , and a few more in 2026 .
-
Despite all the "yay pick one!" coping jokes, the spoon is an embarrassment and a stain on club's history & never a thing to celebrate or wish for - we all mocked the Toffs when they sung our song after the McMahon goal and how that worked out for them....historically pick 1 is as good a guarantee that you won't win a flag....hopefully we at least bid on Ashcroft so it's moot... :shh
-
I don’t think winning the spoon has the same stigma attached to it as it used to be .
What value is there in winning meaningless games at the end of the year….like West Coast .
We will have a bunch of new toys to get excited about soon .

Brisbane “won” the spoon in 1998 . 5 years later they were a champion dynasty team .
-
Over 60 tackles was a promising sign seeing we've averaging around 40-45
But 19 of them were in the 1st qtr. The 2nd qtr was the qtr that killed us and the tackling number showed that I think we had maybe 10 or eleven

Very very different set of circumstances there Matty.
Brisbane being an expansion side were given a lot of concessions to get them to the top.

An expansion side ?
They entered the competition in 1987. Hardly relevant when talking a 2001 flag.
And of the 8 players that went there from Fitzroy, only Chris Johnson played in the flags.

Didn’t they also have a larger salary cap which means not got cut after their dynasty ended?
-
There’s no quick fix . We need to play the long game . Stockpile elite talent for the next couple of years . It’s an ideal time to be crap with tassie coming in .
Richmond can not fix this mess with rookie and mid season drafts .
As bad as this year has been , it’s possible we’re looking at the year as a blessing in years to come .
-
this whole tassy thing is overblown if you ask me. I agree we need to stockpile picks, but not the north way.
who was near the bottom when gws and suns came in?

Totally agree. It is definitely a stain on this club's great history and should never be sought after.

The broken tackles and the failure to lay a tackle killed us. It led to the Suns getting easy goals.

"I had to laugh... the worst season in club history, and Richmond have waited until Round 24 to start flying the flag."
@kanecornes couldn't believe what he was seeing with four minutes left in Richmond's season.

Skeleton man with his continuous hatred, little narcissist who makes a living out of trolling , I take everything he says as Richmond hate, nothing he says adds any value to a discussion.

There's some truth to it tbh

The best lies are built on half truths

Not sure there's any lies there myself.
I don't like him but he has a point.
It was actually a good game to attend, especially once Pickett got on the field, and the 35,000 crowd felt as loud as double that when Pickett snapped that goal.
Wonder where the fight and mongrel has been most of the year!
-
But a bit of deceit though, you can’t make strawberry jam out of horse manure, with injury and age it was always coming and just so we don’t get your hopes up , it’s going to be much worse next year if we discard our best player , do we want the 18 to 20 year olds fighting the opposition or wrestling or in my case I just want them to go hard for the ball and put their bodies on the line when it’s their turn to go, not a lot of that happened this year.
Skelton man is just given half the story !!!!

did it have an effect on us or other clubs?
2011 is when they scooped the pool on concessions. Dogs were 15th, Dees were 16th. Both have won flags since.
Okay i get most of our guns were selected prior them coming in, but petracca wasnt. Lions, Port were all rubbish around 2012 and look at them.
Of course its nice to beat the new clubs, but if your a destination and big club it wont matter at all.
