The 2018 pre lim loss hurt at the time but l reckon we will be looking back at it as the catalyst to multiple premierships and sustained period of Tiger dominance (assuming of course the AFL does not continue to change the rules to stop us)

2017 premiership happened because the players realised they were good enough
2018 put the steel into them to go overcome the injury run and make them the new super power

Port & Bernie yeah 2018 PF loss hurts me too when i think about but had we played the Pies in this years GF and given them a touch up it some of that pain would be gone.

But this thread is gaining momentum somewhat.

Love it.

We were the joke of the town for over 3 decades, now we are kings of the jungle.

Where's Figgy in all of this? Oh yeah, maybe he's headed to the US to talk to the sporting teams.

They are tighter than a goldfishes arse with their cap.

Eddie will be feverishly trying to line up under the table side deals for his boys.

Cox being rated too highly after the Prelim is delicious. Yep another unnecessary crush on their cap.

Mayne's contract another.

Adams, Elliot and Treloar have'nt likely re signed for unders you wouldnt think, and bringing back Beams has so far been a disaster with him not playing and taking up cap space that would be best used to keep De Goey, Moore, The Punter, Pendles and Grundy.

Both Grundy and De Goey chasing 7 year deals also which understandably the Pies wont want to agree to, as ruckman age faster and lose their dominance earlier than other positions (see Goldstein, Jacobs and Stef Martin), and De Goey hasn't exactly had a recent injury history that would have a club leaping to consign themselves to 7 years of probably a million a year to a bloke that might/might not end up with chronic soft tissue problems.

This stuff up might end up costing them a player from their top 5 or 6.

Maybe the Maggots shouldve let Elliot go, they cant keep everyone.

We had our leaders take pay cuts and then Tommy signed for unders what the Maggots were putting up for him.


One thing about Cox and being American, he won’t hold back if they do off load him.

Whistle Blower. He will spill not just beans

He is takin a pay cut and the Crows will have to fork the rest i would say as he is on big $.

Has stated he is willing to play for $200 dollars(sorry $200k).
But still no one is interested. Bloody will enjoy Jenkins lurking in the magoos on $600k a year for the Crows. Just about as funny as it gets in football. Unless of course we go back to back, 'coz that'll be hysterical.

Superfiggy and his apprentice...... cringeworthy!

Heh heh heh.....and the only highlight ONCE AGAIN was the one-hit wonder 2018 PF by Daddy Long Legs.

Didn't I post somewhere here that Figgy will head off to the US to learn from their sports teams just like DImma did?

Well, there you go. Typical Figgy. Still thinks he's got it made with that useless Yank. Dream on dill.

Or looking at it another way ... we have won as many flags in the last three years as they have in the last 61.
And looking at it further, we have won 7 flags in the past 52 years
and they have wobbled their way to
12 brave defeats in the last 59 years!

Comforting to know that since 1958 Richmond has now won seven Premierships to the Pies measly two. :)

only if stkilda had some heart they would be on 1.
*how many teams with all the momentum in a GF with 7 minutes to go still not win?
only flken spinless stlilda

Round 2 again.
Theyre like horny goats early on in the season.
Wouldve prefered to play them after round 10 when one or two of there players have brought the game into disrupt.
