Most of it is just a hive mind mentality. It's been belted into their heads for so long by the media, all they think about is us being a team of role players and Dusty.

Have a look at the way shows talk about us vs other teams. I don't believe they talk about us any less or give us any less praise than they do others, but when they talk about us, they only ever talk about the team and the system. That is fine, but with other teams they will always pick one or two B grade players and analyse their importance to the team, they rarely do this with us, it's only ever either praising the whole system or one of our star players. etc

most football fans pretty much just regurgitate what the media say.

Nick Vlastuin would be seen very differently if he was in a Collingwood or Geelong jumper.

Proof of that is the song and dance made about Howe when he went down earlier in the season. Don't get me wrong, a very good player, but hardly a word (outside of RFC circles) has been said about the loss of Vlas so early in the GF.

have you lads noticed with the fu** off danger goal dusty scored in the granny he didnt attack stanley like most players would

he saw the situation, bumbling ruck and danger standing in front of him, dusty knew 100% because stanley is cooked he will auto handball to danger without looking, so instead of going for the tackle like ordinary players would , he was smart he ran in between stanley and danger and stole the handball and scored the goal

thats why he is so good, he has it all, power, speed , skills, poise and smarts

I think "event" was the buzzword! :)

There was what I regarded as a funny exchange between Waleed Aly and Kelli Underwood on the night grand final thing.

Citing from the article I read, Aly had this to say:

“I hated it, I hated it, I think it’s the kind of thing you like when you don’t actually care about the game that is happening. It’s the kind of thing you gravitate towards when you want it to be an event, not a game. And that is exactly what it felt like.”

Underwood responded:

“That’s c**p … look at these beautiful pictures. I loved it. I think it makes it more of an event."

I mean, way to miss the point!

Aly's saying (and I agree with him) that it's the game that matters. Who gives a stuff about fireworks, and bands, and all that extraneous stuff -- sure it's nice when they get it right, but people go to AFL games to watch an AFL game -- not for that other stuff.

So for Underwood to argue that "it makes it more of an event" is to argue for precisely the thing that Waleed Aly is objecting to. And, for that matter, puts her in the "I don't give enough of a sh*t about football for a football game to be enough" camp -- at least, as far as I'm concerned.

If I want fireworks, I'll go and watch fireworks. If I want to see live bands, I'll go and see live bands. If I want recorded music, I'll turn on the radio. When I go to the footy, please God all I want to see is a footy game.

I'll stop here as I'm sure my point is clear and I don't want to sound like an old man yelling at the clouds -- and there's probably plenty of genuine footy fans who disagree with me and might be offended by the suggestion that if you like the "event" then you don't care about the game.

We have a number of threads covering the glory of him not choosing our inferior list. But can you really have too many? 🤣🤣🤣 what a ****ing dopey campaigner
 
Jack on 360

Slobbo asked who was best on ground in the celebration

3 votes dusty
2 votes lynch
1 vote meatball

Lunch apparently been going around telling the boys he’s the mayor of the Gold Coast
 
The guard of honour thing came up after the game jack approached danger and told him we wanted to do it

They got the idea to hide there medals from dusty hiding is norm smith In 2017

So when gaj and his family look back on the game it’s not rubbed in that they lost

Does anyone have the freeze frame of Dusty's fourth goal where Danger is over the boundry with one hand barely one hand on Dusty's jumper? Tried getting a screenshot but can't get the exact frame on this bloody device. Seen it posted around a couple times, just can't find it now.
 
Enjoy every second of this this premiership every one. The odds of us making another one after the physical and mental toll the 2020 premiership would have taken I think is a lot lower compared to if this was a normal season. I'll never forget this premiership and all the comparisons to other dynasty teams is a load of shit cos no team 3peated while holed up in a hub for >100 days with extended family 100s of kms away struggling in lockdown while a pandemic ravaged the world.

Proud of this club, proud of all the staff especially those who are not gonna be around next year due to salary cap constraints and most of all proud of the players and the football dept for developing and growing such an amazing culture that every last person buys into.

Go Tiges.

There has been a similar incident not that long ago, think of Lynch against the Saints in the semi final. Charge out on the lead but doesn't quite make the fall of the ball but then braced and clipped the Saints player with an elbow to the back of the head sending him from the ground with a cut head. As with last nights incident it's an unfortunate result of a contact game where players can approach the contest from 360 degrees. Now imagine how we'd have been feeling if Lynch was rubbed out for protecting himself in a contest.

I’ll put Jeremy Cameron in then, last year I think. Poleaxed a bears player and was suspended for 5 weeks. There is just no consistency.

Difference is that Cameron didn't even contest the footy, just went the elbow once he got to the contest late.
 
it's an utter lovefest for all things Richmond on 360, rest easy, i'll try to upload morsels for ppl with no kayo tomorrow

(i just had a thought, we all appreciate the game immensely, saving many from going insane, thoughout this difficult period...is it any different to 2000 years ago with the mob baying for blood in a gladiatorial games ?)

Sorry if this has been mentioned before, but I noticed that Byron Pickett didn't crack a smile at all during the presentation of the Norm Smith.

He didn't get to run through someone who has their back turned to him

I was chatting with a mate of mine pre game and we spoke about the ridiculous notion that Danger deserves a premiership. He said you deserve one when you win one, which I thought was a brilliant comment.

I love Danger and would be stoked if he played for us but I think he would be very disappointed with his 2nd halves in the 2019 prelim and 2020 granny when the game was there to be won.

If Danger was freely available to us at $800k a year I honestly wouldn’t take him. I don’t think he would play a team role and would hate to say goodbye to two players to fit his salary in
