It's the old addage.. when your football is crap it doesn't matter what you say, it'll be scutinised within an inch of it's life.
Too true. I ain’t cheering someone to finger paint and change nappies..
Maybe? But he can play with the kids with other peoples money.
To be clear. I love the RFC.
But the F is what consumates the relationship and makes it financial.
If i wanted to financially support a bunch of sooks to stay home and play with the kids,
I dunno what I'd buy? a cafe in Fitzroy?
Get ready for another season like this next year and beyond.
This aint going away and I bet my left nut we won't have a vaccine in the foreseeable future if at all.
People think this will just ho away in time for Xmas.
Im glad I witnessed first hand possibly the last premiership pf the AFL as we know it.

Not to mention that we have a big supporter base in WAIf we have to go into a hub, and we will, then WA would be the go. We have a lot of WA players who will enjoy being back, and the ground there is MCG size.
He was fatherless then, and I'd expect he got the ok from his better half.By the way, different time and different place but I wonder where one of our outspoken guy's values and beliefs around family were when Dustin talked him into flying to Thailand the next day at the 2017 Best and Fairest count?
All media has their own agenda so treat most of what is said or written as inconsequential opinion and move onOr we might just be over-reading things people say in the media

Yes that's true, but I'd be pretty sure his wife would've been consulted, and gave her approval.Appreciate that but I think the point still stands. Kids aren't the only people in a family after all.
Remember when you didn't want for anything thanks to your partner's massive income and denied him the chance to go on holiday with a few mates after he'd just achieved the absolute pinnacle he'd been working for all his life, with those mates?Remember when you were a kid and you would ask your mum something in front of your mates so she wouldn't say no? And then afterwards she would tear you a new one?
What about fiancee's?and partners don’t count (Which is the sarcasm one)
Hahaha. Simple mistake but so perfect!Ho Ho Ho! was that you being witty or a keying error
Completely agree but I think if anyone else had said it the pitchfork crowd would be out in force.I too am really disappointed with our approach to this situation.
No-one has a real issue with the pending births being a reason to stay but having said that we are talking about being a few hours away, not going on a tour of England.
That aside however, I think our general attitude towards things, in public at least, has been this is all a bit hard.
It could be satisfaction with the previous achievements but personally I think we have gotten to a point where everyone has pumped up our tyres so much about our 'connection' and whatever other wanky term you would care to apply, that we have started to believe our own hype.
Once you go down that path you have no option but to try and be deeply caring and philosophical every time you open your mouth in the media and that's exactly what we have been doing. "Footy? Oh no, we are Richmond brothers, we care about life and love and being at one with the universe. There's no way we will let football get in the way of our quest for inner peace and tranquility".
We've become so caught up in our own dribble that we are drowning in it.
I don't think this issue has any bearing whatsoever on our football this season, just as I don't think all the garbage that gets spoken about our off-field stuff had any bearing on winning two premierships, but it is a poor reflection of our character as a club in difficult times.
Ironically, we are so confident that we have life worked out and have perfected the art of being good blokes, that we are blind to the fact that we are setting an awful, selfish example in a time when everyone in the world needs some hope and inspiration.
