PUNT ROAD END | Richmond Tigers Forum

Was meant to go to the Hawthorn game, but refolding my socks seemed more interesting than another capitulation... I do love the Tiges ... but TWENTY FIVE plus years of rubbish (apart from ONE finals appearance) is hard to cope with .. I left Aus to live overseas in 1988, they were crap when I left, came back to support them again in 1997, they were still crap, and ten yrs on, again, its no better (or worse) .. All I can say is Thank God for my 10yrs away (and relief). I just dont care anymore ..

I am no coach/expert/tactician and dont claim to have any answers (they dont pay me too) .. but going to games and losing week after week after week after week is not something I need to keep going back too. In fact, what sense is there in going.

I luv the tiges .. and will be paid up again next year .. and maybe even go to a game or two .. but there is something inherently wrong with the internal workings of the club... Are the senior players just happy to be running there pubs/bars/restaurants and footy is just something that they have to turn up to so they can continue their nice lifestyle?

We have picked up some talented players, only to see them NOT blossom as players as other clubs have with their juniors. JON, pfft, Bling.. zip .. add to that, players that have left Punt Rd and lifted their game (Roden) .. what is it about the Tiges!!
