I've got to say, as a neutral... you guys are one of the best supporter groups in the league. The atmosphere at the ground was electric and there was definitely a sense of true enjoyment and support emanating from your fanbase. You all should be proud of that imo, not many clubs have that.
 
Also HOW BLOODY GOOD WAS THAT?! What a game!

The Geelong pre-game arrogance is even better now.
"We don't have anything to worry about. These guys are chocolate soldiers....melt when you turn up the heat. But we need to develop a tactic for the dusty push off, which by the way looks very high to me and should be penanilsed a lot"
 
Looking for a 2nd guest to join Rustof and myself on Monday night's podcast recording.

Anyone keen to talk prelims with us? :D

Im a neutral and a Hawks fan but id love to do it! :p
I can be the resident "finals specialist" and hopefully rub off some of that good fortune that has blessed me for the best part of the last 10 years onto Richmond!

Nice but hey our first real win in 17 years and a deadset shot at a flag? And we dont need smug arses telling us how to do it hey?

Haha tbh I've been following Richmond pretty close this year and would enjoy getting in on the discussion... anyway my offer stands and i'll leave it to the powers that be..

I'm sitting on a bus. It's just gone past the three hills in a plain. The Hume skirts around it and it's the only deviation for miles. After that, the city comes into view. For the first time this week, I had actually felt excitement. It was an ugly cold week in the capital and i was stuck on my work. This whole pilgrimage felt like a charade and it was likely to be a chore. Tigers in September. Yeah good on ya mate, you just spent 150 bucks for shit weekend. I reach this city at 5 and I smile as I shiver in the cold, wet air. No more sunny Sunday afternoons.

We were up by 6 goals. I crouched into a fetal position next to my seat and massaged the bridge of my nose. Overwhelmed, staring into the concrete floor. Missed Cotchin's goal.

I'm sitting in a mate's car at 1130pm. Flinders St is still clogged.
On my phone, I realized plans tomorrow have fallen through again. I also think I just pushed away this richmond chick who wanted drinks after the game. just because i wanted to hang out with the boys. i think i fancy her but i don't think she'd like what i am right now too.
Lebanese Guy in a Merc sedan pulls up. It's full, probably drunk passengers. Says
How was the game mate?
yeah good man good
What's ya get out of it though? Ha! Nothing right! *laughs*

nah man just good vibes bro good vibes

10 mins later i get a call about a death. Hiw was i ever going to respond? Then my phone died.

As is the fickleness of life. I needed some perspective.

Castagna in danger. Looking over to you, Shai. Sam Lloyd will be more of a Prestia/Edwards replacement.

Half back transition needs work. For some reason we miss Markov. Didn't think he was that important but is a gamebreaker. Broad needs less ball like Grimes. If only we could mesh Oleg and Broad together.

Caddy/Townsend needs some sharing of the load. The idea is that I want Townsend to take more of caddys shots. Caddy was very good though. Brave, confident heart. I call him Mr Backs-himself. Not the most reliable but like a good Volvo you know it's not that bad.

Nank was very admirable. Prestia was quality in an error prone evening.
Graham will not leave this side other than injury. Knowing how to play men with the ball doesn't require form. Natural hunter, ball use and role should improve. Only 3 games under his belt as well.

This ain't some one season wonder.
This is entrenchment as long as the plan works.

Let's steamroll gws or either of the Elim sides then adelaide at home. If it's sydney I'm a bit iffy.
