I'll be in the standing room at the Punt Road end. I'm even hoping Joel may make an appearance for the members at Punt Road after the game (as did Knighter all those years ago).

Heard Robbo on S.E.N. last night accusing richmond supporters of all sorts of disloyalty and basically imploring us to turn up tomorrow. As if we wouldn't). :pullhair Like I need that clown to tell me how to respect a champion.

How crazy- The truth is for the last 15 years (considering what the club has done - or lack there-of) Richmond's attendances have been (generally) outstanding. This year has been no exception. I'm really sick and tired of all the pathetic excuses for clubs that consistently have dreadful attendances, such as Melbourne, Bulldogs and North - even though they have been far more successful onfield than us during this time. FFS we have been mainly awful for 25 years and still turn up no matter what, what is Robbo on about?

Despite all the whipping he has received, I believe Joel is quite liked amongst the majority of Richmond members and I'd expect a pretty good showing tomorrow.
 
Would like someone to confirm that it is in fact his last game for Richmond when they see him leave. A few more scalps and we can say a new era is with us!
 
Its a Tiger home game so lets hope lots of collywobblers turn up to help with our profit.

Although I wouldn't mind betting that we share the gate at both matches during the year.

Good luck Joel.

It was my understanding that we only share the gate with Essendon for our home and away matches.

Seeing we didn't play Collingwood 'away' this year, that would seem to make sense.

not a new era where we slag off our champions i hope?????

I'll be there cheering him on - he's been a great contributor and club man, and unreasonably maligned. I can think of three games in particular last year we wouldn't have won without him...i can also recall him putting his body on the line for the cause plenty of times...He was kind of frustrating i admit...he sometimes looked like he had more skill in his big toe than half the team put together and other times he would frustrate the crap out of me...for all that ..he's been great.
 
I'll definately be there. Gotta pay tribute to a true Tiger champion, because when you think about it, how often do 250+ gamers with this sort of talent come around. There's probably about 2-3 every 15 years. I've thoroughly enjoyed Joel's efforts throughout his 264/5 games, and he is a player who will be missed more than most people realise.
 
Have to go straight from work. Park the rocket at Scumwood park as it's to big to hide at the G. Take the train the last bit to the ground.
Win Lose or Draw will be proud to help cheer off a quality person and quality Tiger player.
 
Will be there with bells on. A loyal servant of our great club deserves a big turnout to say farewell.
