Dunno why you brought it up then.

FFS, I didn't. I criticised him for nursing a grudge against us since the 70s which is just petty and manifests contemporary prejudice hampering his ability to comment fairly on RFC now. You and JB went into an alternative debate re if he has principles. Then you try to drag me in with " If you can explain why there's a conflict in that please do."

Could you just manage to comprehend your own posts? You are making this really tedious.

You specifically mentioned jb and me in your last post dude.

Not sure if that's proof he has principles even after following your exchange with jb03.

Anyway, I just can't get upset that Tim Lane is a Carlton supporter and resents us because of things that happened in the 70s. That's part of the fun of supporting and writing about football. If you want to write another 500 word dissertation on why this irks you feel free.

A great review of our season on The Age

www.theage.com.au

Every game, every round: The story of the Richmond Tigers' 2020 season

After glory in 2017 and 2019, Richmond have had to ride bumps throughout a 2020 campaign that could confirm their status as one of the game's greatest ever sides.
www.theage.com.au www.theage.com.au

Gee the club has been through a lot of *smile* this year (admittedly a lot of self-imposed)

Great piece - it's been a long journey for sure. I went from almost not caring after the quarters were shortened to getting into the whole footy frenzy and watching a shedload of games of varying quality :)

The Age has really got behind the Tigers in recent weeks with some excellent pieces and profiles.

If we win it this year, I will treasure it.

Heard an interview on the radio about 3 guys who decided theyd go to the GC to hopefully watch the GF. Caught a flight to Darwin, did their isolation then flew to the GC.

It wasn’t explained but they acquired GF tickets from Toyota. The guy that was interviewed was asked who was hoping would win (none of them barracked for either Geelong nor Richmond)

”We going for Geelong because we,re sick of Richmond wining it. But as I’m employed by the Richmond footy club I spose I should go for them.”

Good employee.....

Another beauty from The Age

'Boy, could he play': Dusty's journey to Richmond greatness

When Dustin Martin was drafted by the Tigers, the chief recruiter made three key points. Eleven years later, Wayne Campbell reflects on Dusty's brilliant career so far, including his dalliance with leaving the Tigers, his neck tattoo and the first time he made coaches sit up and take notice.

There would be 100's of Richmond people who would love for the club.
The club should text him just before the bounce.

Then on Dwayne's World, (another Geelong supporter), had Bews's old man.

On Bob and Andy however all was forgiven when we got a 15 minute interview with the one and only Royce Hart :)

You would hardly even know we were playing this week such has been the focus on Geelong in the media. I thought last year was bad but this takes the cake.

It really does play into our hands, though. Gives Dimma plenty of ammunition.

Interesting. On the couch this week and they were split. Lyon and Healy for Geelong, and Brown and Riewoldt for Richmond. Seems David Kings "analysis" that was so accurate in 2017 and 2019 has been able to sway Brown to switch to Geelong.

Oh well, just another pundit to have egg on their face on Saturday night.

Has anyone egged Damo yet?
