Grand Final 2020 Thread Richmond Vs Geelong / Game Day Thread

I’m more a post playing Scott Cummings type operator myself....
Not really fussed who we beat next year, but would love to beat collingscum in 2022 to equal their 4-in-a-row then beat them again in 2023 to be the undisputed all time greatest club in the history of the AFL ( and the added bonus being that would be our 16th flag and overtaking their 15 , meaning they have no claim to brag about anything, apart from being the greatest runners up( read losers) in history)

Don't care which Richmond player, only hope it was Eddeeeeee's boy that got snotted. Couldn't possibly come up with a better premiership post script.
Anyone with free cycles might enjoy this Tiger Tiger Burning Bright – Stuff about football & community & belonging. It's got a well written section of GF coverage with pictures and videos. Good read.
Catman's old man played in Geelong's 1963 premiership team.
I've heard him speak and he seems like a ripping bloke.
Clearly doesn't mind drawing attention to himself though!
I have a touch of sadness that Caddy didn't play in the Premiership side. It would have been great if he was one of the better players against his old side, and even better to see him ragdolling a few of his old teammates.
I have sadness too, Tigerman.
I agree with your point but mine is seeing Knighta in blue with the glum face.
And to a lesser extent Grigga.
Funny that I can almost take Grigga in blue (and he's the Premiership player) but seeing Knightah so unhappy with his old team is strange.
Of course happy we won but Knighta was just about my favourite player at the time.
He was the epitome of Richmond.
Classy, skillful running midfielder with the massive shorts.
I think there was a running joke at the time that his white shorts were so wide you could use them as a screen for a drive in movie.
I guess these days it's just a paycheck for these guys.
Just feels strange whenever I watch the replay and see Knightah looking like that.
It would be great if the boy from Merbein returned home as an Assistant coach at some point.

I loved Knights too, his 3 goal performance in the 1995 semi final against the Bongers gave this heartbroken old Tiger a massive buzz. How good was that hit of Scotty Turner's on O'Donnell
To put it politely, the Tigers were very frustrating for way too long, Knighta and Richo made us watchable during those dark years.

Finally received the Blu-ray of the GF and watched it with the SEN audio lastnight. If nothing else Gerard Whateley at least fizzes up Dustins final goal.... albeit a tad over the top!
Think it all loses a bit with them commentating off TV and relying on Kane Cornes' on site expertise.

The guy at Dion's head level, right centre (sic), in the Cats cap with a mask beneath (?) his chin, looking glum and bored, eyes half closed.
Is that Scomo? Did his clueless minders smuggle him in to emerge, 4X can in hand toasting other Moggy fans, pretending to be one of them in another forlorn 'Scomo the winner' photo-opp?
The guy whose chin is directly behind Dion's fist is looking nonplussed. The woman directly below his elbow looks like she's been sucking on sour lemons, and the bloke next to her doesn't look too happy, perhaps he has to go home with her.The guy at Dion's head level, right centre (sic), in the Cats cap with a mask beneath (?) his chin, looking glum and bored, eyes half closed.
