the Hafey match?

When Richmond were sposed to honour him at the G after his passing and we beat em. Berny was huge that day.

 

[Bluelegs]

The Hafey match is a good shout. I might have to do the same.

Demons pip Richmond at the MCG

9.20 fmd that would have been frustrating for Tigers supporters.

Yeah ok, don't remember it

But looking at the dates I was in either Europe or Dubai/Abu Dhabi at the time so I was probably too pissed to watch/remember

We got to see about 45 straight minutes of perfect football to win a flag. We have been completely spoiled now. I kind of feel like I need to go back and rewatch some of the wins we had under Roos that I remember being incredible just to ground myself again. I have such fond memories of our wins in 2014 like the comeback vs Essendon, the Hafey match and Adelaide at AO. They would be probably be absolutely terrible to watch in retrospect.

To be honest, I'm still just enjoying us playing well and am not too fussed about winning or losing as long as its a good watch.

Interesting. I’d say this time of year I’m the exact opposite. As long as we get the 4 points, and don’t suffer major injuries, that’s fine by me.

The Suns and Bombers games were pretty boring.

Maybe I only feel this way because we haven't lost since the Dogs game in rd 19.

Same here mate. Don’t care if we win 41-40 just bank the wins and move on.

Was the year Richmond started 3 wins 10 losses then went on a 9 game winning streak. Then they decided to kick against the wind against Port and got pumped.

Almost reverse Melbourne in 05.

I do remember that game quite clearly

Left my wifes grandparents house in the country and turned on the radio t around quarter time. Was expecting to listen to a decent game on the hour drive home instead Port were up by like 7 goals

Even funnier that my cousin who is a mad Richmond supporter travelled over to Adelaide expecting a good game and left at 3/4 time lol

 

[pjfairbairn]

When we gave Roos his (then) heaviest loss when he was coaching the Swans. That was thoroughly enjoyable. 2010/11?

Great day. Everything turned out brilliantly.

chasing down Jetta?

Man, that guy was super quick in his prime as a FB

 

[Topkent]

****ing hated that team. We could only beat interstate teams and Richmond at home, lost every other game by 10 goals.

Only actually good games were the Collingwood ones we lost by Petterd drop and the draw.

round 4 or 5 that same year we belted Brisbane and were anointed the next big thing

Joel Macdonald had the best ever sledge to Fevola that night

The 2010 team wasn’t that bad, also beat Essendon and had a lot of tight games that year. 2011 was when we only beat interstate teams at the mcg and got flogged by any half decent vic team. Percentage of 94 in 2010 and 83 in 2011 despite having the exact same win/loss (8-1-13) says it all.

Yeah it says that we were a pretty crap team. 8 wins isn't a good team. When we got beaten we didn't even turn up, Against the good sides there was no point watching you knew we wouldn't be in it.

Memory failing you pal. Drew against the Pies, lost by four points against the Dogs. Both top four sides that year.

 

[mrmonkey]

2010 and 2011 equally bad but 2010 felt like the team was heading in the right direction started to come good towards the second half of the year. 2011 the team stagnated but after 186 that was soul crushing and didn't win after that. Probably would have got 2 more wins if it wasn't for that.

2010 much more forgivable coming off a spoon year. We looked like we had talent and the building blocks of something sustainable. Everything went to shit in 2011. Yuck, hate even thinking about it.

Don't pal me chief. 2 anomalies.
We lost 8 games by more than 5 goals in 2010 and more in 2011. We were a front running side that belted interstate sides at G and were mostly crap everywhere else

Collingwood beat us last year so they must-have been a good side right? Oh wait.

You said no point watching against the top sides, I just showed we were quite competitive. Don't get me wrong it all went to shit quickly and 2011 was a joke of a year but 2010 in a vacuum was quite good.

Lol 3 games doesn't make a season. We were completely crap in the rest mate getting constantly flogged by 40+.

More than a 3rd of the season we got flogged but good on ya if you remember that fondly

 

[Deemanding]

Coz I love my stats...

Number of 10 game or more winning streaks:
In the past 30 matches - 2
In the previous 1,230 matches before that - 0
