Richmond is awful

[Rodan_Krakouer]

Envy ha ha ha ha. Envious of what, sack your coaches every couple of years, made finals twice in 25 years, no spirit, no passion to speak of, no stable expierence except Johnson a couple of good kids but who hasn't. Do you wonder why this up and coming side never get tipped to make finals. Because you are crap.

I find it hard to listen to anything a Richmond suporter says as you have no credibility supporting such a rabble. Five year contract to Wallace the big mouthed fool. He is laughing all the way to the bank. Course it was a five year plan which by the way is no closer to sucess now than when he started and whats he in to his third or fourth year.

Good theme song thats about all, still not better than the Bombers though.

agree with you Delaney - we are strugging - thanks for writing about us which means you are feeling for us as much as we are

write about your team which is going well

we are not in your league naturally - we are not good enough unlike your side who looks as though they will finish top 4 - well done

maybe you will start writing about your side one day instead of worrying about us

Credibility coming from a user with the name Tony Delaney?

The only way you could have lower credibility is if you were him!

I see the Bombers have won a couple of games - and we are known for our comming out of the woodwork

26 years of crap and we still bring in the crowds, not bad, imagine when we finally do become successful. I pity the rest of you!

Don't think so about coming out of the woodwork. I watched every game last year always do no matter how they are going. I also stay positive and don't spit at my team the only difference with me staying positive is that there is light at the end of the tunnel.

Enjoy the darkness.

i serioulsy think richmond should be kicked out of the comp fro being so ****e. they are jut making up the numbers im not even going to attend if they play the coasters at subi this year ill just pencil that in now as a 150 point win abd go out on the drink instead. richo is the worst full forward to have played the game but i gues hes a hall of famer down at richmond. they are an embarassment

Had a red hot go to the end which doesn't happen often.

Surprised there isn't a thread on the umpiring. I thought the interpretations today esp a few obvious ones were clearly in Swans favour.

I reckon it is time to try making Richo a specialist FF. Gee he tries his guts out but goto is too predicable. ( oh and must lead to pocket he can kickem from there ) Maybe make Polak play CHF?

Well done for the effort ... but too many underdone passengers.

Fair assessment.

On umpires, I honestly believe that the Swans earned and deserved every single free kick they were awarded on Saturday. I had no issue with any of the ones that they received. The only problem from an opposition supporters POV, however, was that the umpire didn't seem to miss any of them.

Psychologically, maybe it's a bit like the bloke with blond hair getting the Brownlow votes - there might be some merit in wearing a predominantly white or bright guernsey to draw attention to infringements.

But I'm a long way from an umpire-basher. It's such a tough game to adjudicate on and have enough trouble getting umps for junior footy matches without discouraging any existing or potential ones. I thought they did a pretty good on Saturday, and see blaming poor refereeing as a cop-out most of the time.

As a sydney supporter, I'm just glad to notch a win. 1 from 2, >100 %, about 6th is a lot better than 0/2 bottom four.

A win on the road is gold, no matter who its against.

Umpiring: Has the way the umps treat Sydney become so ingrained that supporters of rival teams complain if they dont get biased free kick count in their favour ?

Coaching: Generally poor. Roos for risking Hall after his injury. Wallace for just general tactics.

WOW

Look I respect the Swans and all that but that comment is a bit rich comming from you. You guys are universally criticised for the tactics in which you play, we decide to try your game plan out and you have a go at our tactics?

Sorry they were borrowed from you, now you know how the rest of the comp feels about those tactics!

Agree entirely with this assessment.
I think we were crucified by the umpires on Saturday because of missed free kicks to us and I'm not usually one to blame them.

Jumper suggestion has some merit. How many Brownlow medals have Swans players won compared to Tiger players over the years?
