"Geelong finished top of the ladder therefore their prelim should have been played at Kardinia Park"

geelol lost their qualifying final so richmond was the higher ranked team in the prelim

funny, they dont have a bone to pick with pies who they played in the g qf like they did with us in 2017

 

[Muddiemoose]

as though a noise coming from the scoreboard has such a dramatic effect on the 89 point belting of that game.
i mean cmon, ive heard heaps of interstate and 'away' teams have their sounds played at the g in finals.
its probably because plastic gws didnt have anything to put through the speaker so it was left out.
stick to your s**tty morning television and pathetic shanty town football club, campaigner.
they just can. not. stand. that we are so good, any little clutch at a straw to discredit us.
pure salt.

I remember in 2017 they had that stupid trumpet noise every time they kicked a goal
Was cringe af

Koch was on FIVEaa radio, claiming playing the Tiger roar provided an unfair advantage.
It was a Richmond home game.
Richmond has been subsidising VFL-AFL revenues for 40 years, providing large attendances, we finally have a strong team and he is being churlish.

I don't like the tiger roar.
The fan noise is plenty.

Not that it provided an advantage.
GWS playing their song through the speakers at our home final in 2017 though, did Kochie bring that up?

Omen bet at Kalgoorlie tomorrow. R8#3. SALTY!!!!!!

Running in blue and white hoops.....

One of the most underrated parts of winning a flag is once you recover from celebrations, you have the whole off-season to read through opposition Grand Final gameday threads to see which group of supporters our premiership hurt the most.

I think I’ll save Geelong till last.

Pro tip. Adelaide. Footyveva and mike_smythe are next level schardenfruede.

Dumb question, was that for the Grand Final or all the finals?

Because at the Prelim I certainly didn't hear a roar or anything after Richmond goals, the crowd was easily too loud for that.

This! I honestly didn't know the Roar was played... to busy celebrating each goal with the nutcases around me.

West coast extra salt & vinegar

It's friggen everywhere you look.

Table sat, Sea salt, Chicken Salt, Pink Himalayan

they are saltier than that salty Greek cheese.

 

[Tony Harrison]

Doesn't matter what the thread topic is, west coast supporters still manage to throw something about the mcg advantage into it.
It's wonderful.

Good to see they have finally added a poll to the Fyfe better than Dusty thread

Fyfe vs Dusty

I genuinely don't know whos better and I thought this would make an entertaining thread. Compared notable achievements fyfe 2 brownlows, 2 leigh mathew trophies, 2 B&F, 3 all australians and causing all girls out west having expectations of guys way to high. Dusty 1 brownlow, 2 norm smiths, 2...

Port Adelaide chairman David Koch questions Richmond Grand Final advantage — and reminds everyone there’s no V in AFL

‘There is no V in AFL’: Kochie hits out at ‘cocky’ Victorian footy bias

Lol

If I'm not mistaken there was a lion roar broadcast over the PA at the Brisbane final when they scored.

Bulldogs have in the past had some lame doggie doggie doggie thing broadcast when they scored.

Eat a bag of dicks kochie.

and I remember in the 2017 prelim, the GWS stupid song soundbyte was playing every time they kicked a goal... it's a "neutral" game as far as the "crowd engagement" is concerned, for all finals. He's clearly salty.

just found it weird that GWS didn't have anything setup for the GF this year and we did (or they kicked so few goals that I didn't even notice it haha)... it didn't matter anyway as the crowd was way louder than any "tiger roar" being played through the speakers

EDIT: found the GWS thing referenced here -> https://www.bigfooty.com/forum/thre...y-giants-4-45pm-the-mcg.1177945/post-52620143

I would go back and watch the game again if I were you. They had instruments in their cheer squad so that song is actually from the cheer squad and the TV crew have mics near the cheers squads so that is why you heard it.

 

[Tiger_Mad_80]

gold from pies fans

 

[Punt rd end]

Fyfe is a better pure midfielder, Dusty is the best mid/forward in the game. Fyfe also just seems like a better person.

I did go back and watch the 2019 GF as well and I did hear something on all 3 of their goals (hahahhahahahahhahahhaha) and it didn't sound too consistent, so you might be right.

Why the hell would they play that after the siren in 2017 prelim when they kicked a goal after the siren?

No it was from the speakers. They played it when Himmelberg kicked the goal after the siren and then went onto the Richmond song.

They (GWS cheer squad) played their song after every goal they kicked and at other random times in the game.

In terms of after the siren, I speculate that the TV stations just turn on all crows mics which is why their song was so loud at the end of the game

I know I heard it after every goal whilst sitting in N10. That’s a long bloody way from where the cheer squad was

Yet they still didn't beat GWS

Maybe they were hooked up so it goes through the sound system?

 

[Coach_Required]

Love the what if's scenarios being thrown up ... if we had a full list, if we had a better fixture .... if if if LOL

West Coast lost at home to Hawthorn, Collingwood lost at home to GWS.

Nothing to do with Richmond at all, we didnt take our opponents lightly in the past 3 months, didnt get ahead of ourselves and we werent inconsistent when it mattered most.
