Goldposts - The best of Punt Road End

[tommystigers]

Here's one from Atha Klasso:

Right now I am gutted
Terry talking up Tambling aka Marty McGrath and the guy gets 1 kick. His career will be going the same way as Marty McGrahs too.
We lose by 53 points
Roughead 5 gls Franklin 4 gls there's your diff b/ween 2 sides
Deledio excused as he was injured and has played some great footy this
year.
No wonder Terry was savage in last nights post match press conference
Chefs at Punt Rd Social Club had prepared for him and Greg Miller a huge
tray of humble pie
for them to chew on with second helpings of course.
Until Roughhead and Franklin retire it will become a tradition at Punt Rd
the eating of Humble Pie after Hawk matches
or until he quits or loses his job. Hopkinsville Goblin has alot to answer
to.
Look of resignation on my face and my mates faces was palpable. That 2nd half was
as worse as the whole Geelong game earlier in the year
No skill no passion no heart no desire no pride absolutely nothing just an
inept inadequacy in skill and decision making
and a derision of being in the position they are. Heads must roll and so
must reputations the club has to wholehaeartedly commit to a youth
policy and make hard decisions and tread on toes before we even think
about climbing the ladder. Even getting rid of Richo to full time blood
a youngster who will be our backbone for the next 10-12 years. Otherwise
Terry's 2011 prediction will be just another token finals appearance
much in the same guise as 2001 with the same heart wrenching results with
the same sort of calamitous issues.
Tiges are gawn absolutely the worst club with the least light at the end
of the tunnel of all wooden spooners in the last 25 years.
The apparent lack of success and poor decision making in the board room in
the coaches box and on game day on the ground has left me gutted
as a supporter and the pain will only get worse with no indication of a
time frame of when it will get better.
Thank you Helen D'Amico
Thank you Geoff Raines Bryan Wood for defecting after 82 grannie
Thank you Pres Ian Wilson and Barry Richardson for their personal agendas,
club infighting and dwindling club finances stature and respect
Thank you to the morons who appointed Alan Bond as pres for 1 yr and he
made 1 trip to the club in that time
Thank you Kevin Bartlett hope your satisfied with your dummy spit at the club and
continual resignation and failure to move on and hope the AFL and Sen have you on their honour roll.
Thank you for SOS in 1990 and we all going out of our way to raise 1 million to help keep the club afloat only for subsequent administrations to go down a similar path and get similar end of season results as circa 1990.
Thank you Leon Daphne and Jim Malone for only offering John Northey a 1 yr
contact extension after he led us to the finals in 1995 who promptly quit
and we then get Walls for 3 years only to sack him within 2
Thank you for the Giesche bet he tells the umps now give the tigs all the
frees you can they need it
Thank you for 5 years of Frawley no progress except knowing how to answer
like a rabbit in the headlights starting his response with"yeah nah" going onto "stick fat" in the middle of his response

and finishing with "cherry ripes" at the end and still not answering the
question. Please I ate so many cherry ripes thanks to Danny in 02 03 and 04 I am now a grade 2 diabetic.
Thank you for Clinton Casey for pillaging the club finances once again
Thank you for Greg Miller for being the marshmallow Sheeds actually called
you. Please channel 7 bring the Hammerheads back so he can go there.
Thank you Terry aka Hopkinsville Goblin for talking the talk and not
walking the walk and forcing every true tiger to eat humble pie like you
and your mate marshmallow man.
Thank you Terry for coming as the Messiah and presiding like a child molesting priest taking advantage of those who were at your need mercy and help. On judgement day Jesus will punish you for impersonating him. Maybe your next job Terry could be one impersonating one of the four horsemen of the apocalypse.
Thank you for all the memories for 95% of them were bad
Thank you for all the scattered history and pain and sorrow you have all caused since 1983.
Thank you for reaffirming my belief that we were once the most feared and
respected predator in the afl jungle
Thank you to all the clappers clapping them off you have all contributed
in your own unique way to make the Richmond Footy Club on match day
the best it can be and the future just holds so many more ambitions and
years of unparalled and unbridled has beens broken dreams and gut
wrenching
days such as yesterday.
To all involved from from half time onwards in the 1982 Grand Final on the
25th of September 1982 a big big thank you for the way I feel and for the
way I have felt and for forcing me to be the butt of mates jokes as well
as the pain of having to endure absolute reckless uninspired and utter
garbage similar to yesterday for the last 25 years.
Thank you to the guy who dropped manure on the club after their round 9
loss to Geelong in 2001 when he clearly should have brought Father Dimi
from "The Exorcist" to come and exorcise the demons the curse the Kavorka
that has presided over the dense thick and blackest clouds in existence
over Punt Rd.
Thank you for rendering my pain now immune and my love for you a mere
pinprint on my soul.
Thank you for the guy who went bezerk on Danny Frawley after round 4 2004 and went to the footy show. If you were loaded and appeared in a suit you could have been our next president as you had the right intentions about the club but went about the wrong way hence the media lapped it up and made fun of it by giving the non plussed and unimpressed footy public "There go the tigers eating their own again".
Once again thanks to all I have mentioned and apologies to those that I
have neglected to mention. Thank you for making the AFL an easier
competition to be in and having heritage round every week with the theme
of the 90's as there are 15 teams who have a bye each time they play us just like in 91-94 when the Crows were the 15th side.
Thank you In Anger Frustration Pain Sorrow Indignance Derision Suffering
Yours sincerley
Life long Richmond supporter born 1974 a premiership year.

Has the Tiger Centenary book been published yet? This concise history of f the RFC over the past 25 years should be the foreword! :clap Absolute GOLD!

Here's one from Red arguing over whether to play football on Good Friday:

I don’t see what the problem is ? The chocolate eggs and stuff is all on the Sunday, and we’re not talking about playing on the Sunday.

There’s no conflict from what I can see .

 

[Dyer'ere]

:hihi

 

[evo]

i have a particular weakness for good metaphor so I'd like to nominate this one.

Phantom, you keep rolling out your rhetoric like a dung beetle rolling around a juicy steamer,

 

[YinnarTiger]

And from the same wordsmith:

There's a common thread here - they'd all struggle to get a kick if you stuck a bolt through their heads and used a super conductor to wire them up.

My favourite too. Gold IMO. Gold.

This comes from the rumour that a Tiger will come out of the closet on Monday. A picture paints 1000 words.

:rofl batman and robin ?doesnt that conjure up an image.

THURSFIELD, MCGUANE, POLAK,

That's not a back line. It's a pencil case.

hehe!!

 

[t-rob]

What (or who) could we posiibly give Freo to get pick 7 ?

It wasn't actually mentioned on SEN what we would give for it.

we offered to swap theme songs

A classic indeed, well done friendly one.

:clap

Come and listen to a story about a man named Judd,
He once was revered, but now his name is mud.
For one day Dickie Pratt came a callin',
and the next thing you know for the dough he was a fallin'.
Bucks that is, the money kind... not the 'Pie.

Well the next thing you know ol' Judd's a zillionaire,
His cred less than zero but why should he care?
Did the dodgy on his club and all AFL supporters,
went to the Blues, the low, cheating rorters.
Scum that is, tanking team, Kruezer thieves.

Ms Tantie.
xox

 

[Growl]

Yep, I'll vote for that one, Disco.

Can't get the tune out of my head now!

 

[Tigers of Old]

That's pure gold. Brilliant Miss T.


:cutelaugh :cutelaugh :cutelaugh

 

[craig]

Yep :clap :clap :hihi

Lovely work Ms T

 

[LeeToRainesToRoach]

Very clever Ms Tantie.

 

[TigerForce]

Scumton's new theme song. Sing it loud and proud !

 

[Tigers of Old]

What is a Bex? i've heard of it all my life but never asked what it was.
I even remember the serious guy on TV advertising it

is it an anti depressant?

If you barrack for Richmond arsenic is an antidepressant.

[Curtiger]

Tigerdog's notion of 'Justice':

Judd having five daughters.

 

[Rosy]

We can all probably relate to this one

I want is evidence that we are not a rabble. That the Good Ship Punt Road has a rudder and is charting a course to September glory. Feels more like that proverbial creek we all know so well.

 

[Tigers of Old]

You don't kick the pilot out a plane until you make sure you have someone else who can land it

Who do you replace him(Miller) with Claw?

you can if the plane hasnt got of the ground.

:hihi

 

[Tigers of Old]

This one goes straight to the Pool room. ;D

oh we're from flanker land a mob of pansies
oh we're from flanker land
in any weather you will see us getting mauled
getting bumped right off the ball
when we get hit we dummy spit
and sook and sook and lose
oh were from flanker land
we always weaken when the game is there to win
not like the tigers of old
who were strong brave and bold
oh we're from flanker marshmallow and fluff
oh we're form flanker land.
