Sounds fair. Lions to play in the Grand Final. Win Win for Queensland and the AFL
If COVID is life threatening to elderly people.
Then the Geelong team could be in some trouble.

Listening to Emma Murray on SEN talking about the build up to the Grand Final. We're lucky to have her.

All Richmond supporters should try and take a leaf out of Murray's book on mindfulness and project some really positive energy towards the Tigers during the week and on, especially, Saturday night.
It all helps.

I knew we were disliked but I am finding that even people who are usually level headed friends admitting they were barracking hard for Port Adelaide to win
I never say bad things about their football teams
At least not blatantly to their face , but I’m quite shocked at the venom towards us from everybody that isn’t one of us

Non-Richmond supporters are over the Tigers' success.
The media is reacting to this year's grand final just as they did last year with GWS.
Plenty of hype for the opposition in the hope that the Tigers can be defeated.
Clutching at straws in my view. Just underlines how bloody good Richmond is.
Everyone fears a Richmond dynasty, just the way I like it.

It's mostly just the underdog factor so it's understandable. Even Geelol will reap it because no flag since 2011. And the poor Danger and Gazza sob stories: never played in a GF; last game for the Little Master.
Never mind that they both walked out on their original clubs with Gazza then dumping GCS after cleaning out their bankroll. You probably won't hear that much.

WE have had the covid quarantine protocol shoved down our throats (pardon the pun) for months. if you have covid-like symptoms you need to be quarantined until your result comes back negative. ALL close contacts should also be informed and go into quarantine. So technically the whole squad and coaches etc should be in quarantine and all tested for covid and only allowed out if all tests are negative. isn't this what we are all still doing here in Vic? different rules in Qld/AFL.

Although as Geelong has been sharing facilities with Richmond maybe we should be in quarantine aswell!!!

yep ive noticed a subtle. underlying mixture of fury, hatred, jealousy, disdain in a few conversations with footy mates.

when I sense it, I lay the confidence, brashness, arrogance on extra thick and I try to be as condescending about their club as I can be.

'yeah mate, the Lions are simply where Richmond were at in 2013. If you make some hard decisions, like getting rid of Hipwood and using the pick on a kid like Dusty, the composure and leadership and culture will come with time'

mates come and go. immersing yourself in a Richmond dynasty first hand is a life's work.

Yeah I've got great mates that barrack for other clubs. Scumwood, Drugendon, lolNorf, Carlcheat. They hate us with a passion. They all wanted the Crows and Giants to beat us. They even hated us when we were *smile* but they could also laugh at us. Now they can't laugh at us they hate us even more. I'm absolutely loving it and geez am I giving it to them every chance I get :mhihi There is a lot of 30 plus years of payback being sent the way of non believers.

My wife (Tigers) has a brother who lives in Brisbane and claims to be a Lions supporter; he was Essendon many years ago before he moved up there. He's going to the game and my wife said that he should be supporting us. He said he will be supporting Geelong and I said good; no *smile* bandwagoners here. I wouldn't accept his support even if he gave it.

Great to be king!

Yeh, kermit doesn't mention the little masters history. Just that somehow he deserves to go out on a high?

As Clint said, deserves got nothing to do with it.

"Danger, this is a big game, we need you to step up"

Yep, that should do it
