Just love what Vickery did in the 1st qtr alone against the "best defence" in round 10. He's kicked 41 goals in his last 20 matches. I think he's "fixed".
As you were....
I just want these guys to win games of footy for the Richmond Football Club. As long as they are putting 100% in on the field, nothing else matters to me. As Bojangles17 said... let it be.
Fair point, it could get out of hand although I don't think MT has posted anything untoward from what I have read.
Keep the Hawk updates coming MT I say.
Nothing insecure about it mellow. Its just a little side show that some of us enjoy following.
On our way to 75,000 members, its gonna be really sweet to have more members than the reigning premier.
We will enjoy passing the smaller clubs like Hawthorn first.
Next year, we target Collingwood.
17th year and M Rioli for about 10 years as well. That random towel was pretty cool. I have been trying to persuade the club to let me have both the cap and scarf this year... no go. They won't even let me buy the other. So I went with the scarf.
My favorite quote from this weeks podcast - "if there are overwhelming and underwhelming players, then Matt Thomas is whelming". Lol. No disrespect to said player by the way.
Hi there Groupie_ It has taken me a while, but I finally got around to uploading the Richmond Entrance against Carlton from the elimination final on Youtube. Here is the link if you or any other Tiger fans want to watch it...
For my 2 cents worth... It is "SHIN".
I knew the great Jack Malcolmson personally and am a friend of the family.
I spoke with Jack on numerous occasions about the song and it's history and I can confirm that it was written with the word SHIN. By the time it was recorded by the Fable Singers...
Thanks johnno77. It's true that Ross Knight (lead singer) is mad Tigers. You have pretty much confirmed it was them, just need to find an episode. I used to record them, but because my reception on 31 was so bad, they werent worth keeping. :(
Does anyone remember Tiger TV on Channel 31?
Hosted by Nathan Bower, I think it was aired weekly in 2001/2.
Anyway, can anyone confirm if the Cosmic Psycho's played the opening tune?
Does anyone have any episodes on VHS / DVD?
The lyrics went along the lines of:
"Richmond... Is the team to...
Yes, absolutely we need to keep tabs on the Hawks. It helps keep the membership tally just a little bit more interesting, for a few of us anyway.
It is not a failure if Richmond get 75K regardless how many the Hawks get, but it will make it sweeter if we get more than them!
Thanks @Groupie.
Atleast the marketing department are doing something to help us get to 75K. Anything thats going to create more brand awareness is a fantastic thing and this had never been done before. Support it, don't trash it.
Well done Richmond.
I heard that version today, and heard "shin" which was great but I didnt like the sound of the whole arrangement and would much prefer we kept the original (with "skin"...).
I'm the same, will never get over it. I was at the G that day (vs Carlton, final), but it took me until yesterday to watch the first half because I wanted to hear how loud the roar was when the Tigers came on to the field. It was deafening!! Goosebumps...
So the Pies made $26 mill more in revenue than us, yet they only spent $2 mill more on Footy Department. Huh??? What are they doing witb the rest of it???
Agree with you Captain. Our revenue really will grow if we make finals regularly. More memberships, shop sales, higher price tag on sponsorships. The list goes on...
Hi there RFC_Official.
Can the club please look into correcting the vocals on our song so they sing "shin" instead of "skin"?
We wouldn't want to hoist up our next Premiership cup with the song not sung the way it was originally written by Jack.
