Extremely hard for me to say this, but

Richmond till i die.

The thought of not supporting Richmond could never even come into my head.

Training Wednesday at 2pm smasha... be there.

Everyone be at training!!! Take a sickie, show them we still believe and we still support them. Dont lose the faith.
 
Well, there may have been more at training earlier today, but I didn't get there until after work, about 3.45.
Most had already gone in, there were still about 6 to 8 of the guys having a kick, so there isn't much I can tell you.

Polo and Edwards were handballing to each other. Polo has the faint remnants of his dye job, but it looks like a pretty decent haircut happened recently. ;D He had his right shoulder bandaged.

A few torps were being kicked from beyond the 50 metre line, by Tucky and Luke. Angus Graham has bulked up in the legs.

Unfortunately that's about it. I will have to do better next time.
 
Bit of a shame to see some posters tear into other Richmond fans when they are down. Give the guy a helping hand rather than getting stuck into him because you love nothing more than an opportunity to big-note about being a 'true' supporter.
 
i will be glued to the tv watching us this week as if we were 6-0.I (we) have been through way to much to give up now & i would never contemplate it anyway!
 
the bottom line is every one deals with trauma like sun night differently, some want to run and hide, others get angry and others see it as all part of the journey, the bottom line is if you really have the passion you will hang around and wait for some better times

...some vent on the internet and some eat our own.
 
I can't believe how calmly and rationally I took the humiliation.
The two blokes I went in with pissed off at half time, but I stayed until the end.

The fact I wasn't feral and seethingly angry kinda worries me as I think I'm becoming less fanatical than I once was.
That scares me a bit, as I love Richmond FC like family even if I never could work out why :-\

Perhaps the bludgeonings have taken their toll to a point where I expect them and don't even hold out for hope any more.

PS....Is it just me or has every *smile* under the sun taken it upon themselves to leave smart arse text messages or jibes about our loss all week?
In paticular its morons who hardly follow the game I'm finding :frustration
 
What are talking about.

Foley kept on getting his ownball.
Cleve has kicked 6 in his first 2 games this year & should have had a few more.
Whitey showed something


Keep faith in the kids!!

If we put many more efforts in like that, I don't know what could happen, Richmond may even lose a fan. Terrible thing to say I know, but that's how I feel inside. I can't get over it. I need a win.

Make me believe again, Tigers.

I must admit, if Tambo and co are shown the door and this rebuild finishes in tears...I'd strongly suggest that my interest would be sorely tested :-\

I am finding the same thing. I'm scared to even read the paper at morning tea, because it leaves me wide open to smart comments from smug fellow workers -one of them a Carlton supporter. ...and I've never said a word to them about their past 2 years at the bottom. If we ever become a force again, look out.It will be pay back big time. They won't know what hit them >:D
