Preview 2020 Round 11 Richmond vs Port - Adelaide Oval 4:35pm Sat 08/08

[Thrasher97]

I’ve prepared a video of how we’ll do it

Only difference is this time we’ll have Dusty in there somewhere, doing whatever it is Dusty does.

Dunno don't have superstar Connor Menadue, a bit worried.

forgot about this game

i was pissed off my head and went to do a wizz at 3qtr time

heard a loud BANG in the garage lel.. the plaster ceiling had fallen onto the cars .... bitter sweet night but oh so sweet

those bitter tears from the pears

 

[Martin#4]

Out: Cotchin, Chol (torn poo dot)
In: RCD, one legged CCJ

 

[smurfin]

With Cotchin being rested, my predictions for his replacement are:
Graham, Caddy, or RCD.
Maybe Caddy comes in for Jack Higgins if he needs a rest?

 

[Goshaa]

Lol everyone so desperate to derail the Tiggy train.

 

[TigerMoz1973]

I have never been more angrier in my life than after that game. And man, i have witnessed some bad games supporting Richmond. But that one. That was the worst.

The 2018 preliminary final v. Pies and 2014 elimination final v. Norf were horrific for me. Houli/Mundy and Chaplin/Nahas offer bad memories also.
The Hafey 'no show' was another level of badness.
The club owed us supporters... and they've paid up

Transcript of the interview from HS:


WHAT WENT DOWN
Hugh Riminton (journalist): Sadly an off-field matter if you don’t mind taking a question on it. Are you aware of what appears to be an indecent assault against one of your players by another one of your players in the rooms, in fact there were two incidents, after the game against Brisbane and the other the week before against the Western Bulldogs, do you have any knowledge of these things?

Damien Hardwick: No mate. I appreciate your time but let’s talk about the game. Thank-you.

Riminton: I’m going to put these questions to you, because I have two criminal lawyers who have said they have looked at this vision and they say there has clearly been a sexual assault taking place. It’s a breach of the criminal law at state and Commonwealth level. It’s a breach of the AFL code of conduct, the player’s code of conduct, of the member’s protection policy statement, it is on camera, we have received no complaint from nay player, but it’s clearly on camera, it has been discussed on social media, and I want to know are you going to take it upon yourself if you haven’t already to investigate what appears to be a crime between two of your players?

Jaimee Damon (club media): We actually have no knowledge of that, it’s the first we’ve heard about it, so thank-you for the question but we have to move on.

Riminton: So from the coach, the answer is, let’s be clear, you have no knowledge of this taking place, even though it’s freely on social media, you have no knowledge of this at all?

Damon: That’s correct, thank-you and we’ll move on”.

Riminton: There will be questions on it at a higher level and you are aware of them now. If it turns out to be a matter of horseplay, captured on camera is Nick Vlaustin putting his finger up the anus of Mabior Chol, he reacts this to that in a way that plainly indicates he wasn’t expecting such an action. He also has his genitals grabbed three times by Vlaustin, after the Bulldogs game he has his genitals grabbed by Jayden Short, the question to you is, if this is horseplay, are all premiership players within Richmond expected to tolerate fingers going up their anuses, or is it just the black players?”

Silence

Damon: Thanks for your questions Hugh but we’ll move on from that.

After a series of football questions, about three minutes worth, Riminton came in again.

Riminton: A football question, are you expecting Nick Vlaustin, Jayden Short and Mabior Chol all to be available and playing in your next game?

Hardwick: I’ve been very patient.

Riminton: It’s a football question, are you expecting them all to be playing in your next game?

Hardwick: Thanks guys.

Press conference ends.

I know Hardwick will get a lot of shit for cutting it short, however he had every right to.

I get opposition supporters hating on Richmond, hell we hate on other team ourselves, but journalist’s are supposed to be completely objective but it really does feel like there’s a concerted effort by the media at the moment to **** Richmond and their players over any way they can.

I’m not excusing what happened, in fact Vlaustin definitely should have kept his hands to himself, however this journo has pretty much taken the situation out of Marbs’ control. Whether Marbs considers it sexual assault or not I wonder how he feels about this journo doing this?

[Tenacious T]

I have never been more angrier in my life than after that game. And man, i have witnessed some bad games supporting Richmond. But that one. That was the worst.

Was a fan of Chappers early on but became a major liability later on

 

[Soberian Tiger]

I’ve prepared a video of how we’ll do it

Yes. Whatever it is Dusty does.

It mightn't be much but it seems to have some sort of influence on both the outcome of a game and the sanity of comments by the losing team's supporters.

 

[Ceehook]

Surely you know the difference between wearing a sporting jersey which have black and white lines resembling prison bars, is different to actually being in prison.

IN all seriousness though, who is going to stop Dixon. Bolta hahaha that's a good one.

You'll be lucky to be within 25 points at half time and 40 points by games end.

Remember these words - Darcy Byrne Jones!

hmm who's going to stop Charlie Dixon ? his goal tallies for 2020
Rnd 1 n/A
Rnd 2 3 Crows
Rnd 3 2 Dockers
Rnd 4 6 WC
Rnd 5 0 Lions
Rnd 6 1 GWS
Rnd 7 3 Blues
Rnd 8 1 Saints
Rnd 9 1 Melb
Rnd 10 2 Bulldogs

WC had a stinker the day he kicked 6 , then multiples against Crows , Dockers , Blues

might suggest he's a flat track bully especially when he went 0 Lions Harris Andrews , 1 GWS Phil Davis

his hands are so strong he could burst a footy but the world also knows how mobile he is

he's kept in check most games , if port win its far more likely to be someone who is the match winner

Balta could beat Charlie over 50tmrs giving him a 20 mtr start but thats a mute point because its very unlikely they find themselves in that sort of space

Can Charlie rag doll Balta ? if he catches him off guard certainly , but Balta isnt a skinny kid and I'd back him in to be competitive in the wrestling
the trick will be , will Balta give away a free or two while wrestling for marks, experience has to count for something and Charlie has that

Will Balta's runs out of defence be the game breaker ?
It will be an interesting matchup but the game will be won or lost before it gets to that pair

One of the rare games dusty went missing...

 

[RFCGloryJC]

Notice how Riminton doesn't have a single reference on Twitter, knowing he can be sued by the player.
Write it on Twitter, Hugh!

 

[TigerMoz1973]

Just looking at the fixture, port has been kissed on the pecker this entire season so far.

Played all the better teams when they were at the lowest points and played a heap of sh*t teams.

I know you can only beat who is in front of you, but a huge false dawn here IMO

Important we expose that. I don't understand why people are saying just take the loss.
My brother lives outside of adelaide on the air peninsula and is waiting for someone to expose them.
Why not us???

 

[OhDustinMartin]

I can only go on footy club culture and it probably means absolutely fu** all, but your right it can.
All that aside though it’s genuinely the dumbest ******* thing we’ve done in ages and the first time I saw it I just thought.. oh fu** they’ll regret that sh*t.
Wasn’t Jack doing it to somebody last week too? I couldn’t believe it, It’d be just some stupid inside joke and now some ******* idiot has used it to make a name for himself.

it is dumb, you're right. the implications of it are beyond the journo, though. it's reasonable to ask the question, less so to name the person involved with their knowledge.

 

[tigs2010]

Hugh just jelly that Mike Larkan is too busy cracking shit gags to poke his poo dot in staff meetings.

 

[RFCGloryJC]

One of the worst losses I attended was the 2001 finals loss in Melbourne.
Hurt a fair bit.
Full credit to our fans who flew to the Gabba the next week.

 

[RFCGloryJC]

If Hugh was genuinely concerned, he should have raised the matter through private channels, first and foremost.
They can't mention someone's name publicly in a "gotcha moment" without prior approval of the person.

 

[tigs2010]

But how do you know this is the case? The only factual statement you have made is Mabior is black.

Is he? **** me sideways thank god WC fans are around to give us the news.

 

[Tiger71]

I'm saying that black dudes often have uncomfortable experiences of white people (even guys) fetishising their bodies.

It's littered through our culture at the most basic level, from the way commentators talk about them and their athleticism, to a fascination with black guys having big *****.

It is not a surprise to see something like this in AFL now that AFL has quite a few black guys with African ancestry in the league.

Part of it is inextricably linked to the fact Mabior is black.

You realise chol has also done it to white player right? It's the blokes having an inside joke amongst themselves, nothing to do with race. Now I know you are eager to push this as your hate of the tigers is well known but tread carefully in suggesting this playing group condones racism.

 

[Rodney Dangerfield]

It is clear as day to see, particularly in the footage with Vlaustin, that Mabior is extremely uncomfortable, to the point of placing his hand in front of his butt to ward off any more attempts from Vlaustin to put a finger up his anus.

Instead, Vlastuin just goes for the BBC.

Biggest issue was it was not just one player, and not just on one game. Short and Vlaustin, on different weeks thought it was ok, independent of one another. Speaks more to cultural norms than just a one off incident.

I think there is a problem in society broadly where white guys are obsessed with the bodies of black men, especially their *****.

Not hard for Dimma or Livingstone to say "don't grab each others **** or put your fingers up each others anus".

I am sure a lot of the black guys in AFL, more specifically the ones with African ancestry get this treatment in the locker rooms. Lumumba said part the treatment he received at Magpies was comments about his penis and black bodies etc.

lol fact is that bloke was notorious for doing tricks with his ****.

 

[tigs2010]

Imagine the boys trying to do it to you. Go the dick tap and can't find it...go the poo dot poke and finger doesn't even touch the sides

 

[RFCGloryJC]

If anything, sports has done more to raise the status and incomes of black people in our society than any other platform.
How many black people does Channel Ten hire as on screen presenters?
In fact, Channel Ten is far more racist than AFL in terms of racial hiring.

I’m not saying what they did was right. It shouldn’t have been done, behind closed doors or in front of the camera, it shouldn’t have been done at all. That journo though, he doesn’t give a shit about Marbs or how he feels, he just cares about his next big story.

 

[tigs2010]

Most probable ie 99% certainty explanation is that it’s a stupid prank they pull (hehe) on eachother that caught on camera.

Guilty of being ******* idiots and that’s it

HA pull
