Sitting here (into my third Chivas and listening to Roy O) and reading the todays treads, it has struck me that we (supporters) have got to realise that the Tamblings, Lids, Foley, Polos and Raines's of this world have been trying their guts out all year, not just for themselves but for us, and we owe them the support they deserve. We all have to realise that drubbings are going to be part-and-parcel of this season and maybe next and we can only be there for them and support them until they become men, yes men, at the moment they are just boys playing a mans game. In 3-5 years time, I cannot wait to see these boys playing with an extra 10-15kg on their bodies running the lines and hitting leads. I read threads on this site asking if Lids is playing as good as he should F**king hell, he's only 18 years of age, we should have got Franklin instead of Tambling, Tambling is going to be a gun. Today at the game I saw so-called Richmond supporters walking out at 3/4 time, what is this saying to the kids "hey we like you but only when you are winning" . Lets wake-up supporters and stop getting on the kids backs and start supporting. Myself like most of us long suffering supporters long for the day we are a power again, it will happen but it is going to take time. . . I can wait, can u.
