Hi, sorry if there is a similar post but what are some of the random stats / observations found for those watching games from the 2017 or 2019 premiership seasons.
For example:
In both grand finals, Jack Riewoldt only kicked goals in the 2nd and 4th quarters.
In both grand finals Richmond...
I’m far from the modern generation that thinks everyone deserves a medal, but watching the St Kilda game the tiges don’t win that game and make the top 4 without Stack and Chol’s efforts and we all know about Graham’s prelim.
As the most innovative and connected club should Richmond make...
A lot of jockeys and racing people support the tiges, off the top of my head there is:
The entire Rawiller family
Steven King
Lachie King
Peter Mertens
Beau Mertens
Craig Newitt
Craig Williams
Stephen Baster
Greg Miles (the former race caller)
Every year before the day before the Caulfield Cup...
I'm on the lookout for any Subiaco player issued or match worn guernseys, Ryan Neates (WCE) PI and Jay Van Berlo (Freo) PI.
Please send a message if you have any leads.
Thanks for reading.
For anyone with doubts on their clubs selections in the Draft / Rookie Draft, now is the time to be an expert, and laugh at your own stupidity in future years.
For each of your clubs picks at the national draft put the player that was available who you would have picked (the new player must...
With all the talk of who we should target in trade week I wondered what age groups Richmond were lacking on our list and put together this table (attached). With 7 players from the 2006 draft on the list and then only two from 2008, it’s no surprise that many players from the 2008 draft are...
My positives from training, I'll let others deal with the negatives.
Chris Knights - a lot quicker than I remembered, all class
Trent Cotchin - seems to have gained a yard of pace, uses ball so well
Anthony Miles - really looks like he knows he belongs now
Dustin Martin - once the match...
Another tigers supporter in the draft is Tom Tyquin from Sandringham, excellent user of the footy and one of the best kids you will ever meet. Really hope we get him with a late pick if he's still there. Has all the attributes Dimma seems to want these days.
The world wildlife fund website also has an adopt a
Tiger plan where you can donate a set amount each month (minimum 15 bucks which I just did) to help the tigers. "humans" make me sick!!!
Inagine if Richmond announced that cousins has been signed in a coaching and running role within the club. He would love running around, imparting knowledge on the younger players and remain an integral part of the club without the threat of holding younger players back. This way he can continue...
Many people miss the point, 14 games can win a game, 8 goals could win a game etc, but as a club if you tried to develop strategies to kick 4 goals a quarter you would have won 98% of the games in 2010 and 96% of games in 2009. I chose 16 goals because this is usually always the sealer as it...
As a supporter I am amazed at how little focus is given to the 16th goal kicked by a team being regarded as the “sealer” or even used as a target for coaches, players, supporters and commentators alike. In this age of statistics for everything and an army of coaches the simple art of...
At times like these I often wish I could call the doc and get the delorian to go back in time and fix a few of the mistakes we've made.
Noteable fixes would be signing Kevin Sheedy as head coach in 1981 with Mick Malthouse as assistant, resting Richo for that Sydney game, Browny for the...
I am going to watch the tiges in Sydney, Adelaide and Brisbane this year and was wondering the best way to get match tickets with fellow tiges supporters. Also to let those tigers supporters who like the races as well that we play in Sydney the night of the ajc derby and also a week after the...
The biggest problem with our club is Terry’s huge ego and his aim to change the side around from week to week and try and pull off an Adelaide style victory as he did a few weeks. However, as the consistent premiership sides have proved, leave them in their right position, give them the...
This is amazing this thread, I've been watching him for about 6 years and he is the best junior footballer I have seen.
About this year, think of Dan Rich at the end of 2007 as a 17 year old.
Under 18 All Australian
Won the Under 18's with WA
WAFL Premiership Player with Subiaco.
Certainty...
To me, the perfect footballer has 3 important facets.
1. Good skills - eg Judd, Cotchin, Franklin, Gilbee
2. An excellent attitude - eg Judd, Van Berlo, Foley
3. A ferocious attitude, whenever the ball is in their area, they want it shown by Rioli this year.
Keeping in mind we are talking...
Unlike many people on this forum, I am a realist. We are light years from a premiership when you see Geelong and the simple reason is MIDFIELDERS. Why Geelong are so good is that they have about 10 players who would be starting members in Richmond’s Midfield. Yes Ablett and Bartel are class, but...

1- Chris Newman 2- Will Thursfield 3- Brett Delidio 4- Andrew Raines 5- Troy Simmonds 6- Graham Polak
7- Nathan...
With all the high profile Kangaroos supporters announcing their support I was wondering who our ones were. The only ones I know of are a few of the jockeys (Steven King, Craig Newitt, Craig Williams, Peter Mertens, Nash Rawiller, Brad Rawiller). I vaguely remember that Jane Turner and Denise...
The big worry for St Bede's this weekend is the sunny 20 degree conditions forcast, the sun doesn't react well with the fair skin of some of the midfielders. I've heard the Zinc cream will be in high demand.
