Which AFL team is the dirtiest?

[frggr]

Great sides play it hard and tough, the others complain because they don’t like getting their hands dirty. Loved how the Hawks liked rubbing their opponents into the ground and Richmond are similar.
Admire the great sides, don’t knock them.

So no great sides play it fair, in your estimation?

I didn’t say that, what do Richmond Do that upsets you?

Playing tough and hard and rubbing salt into the wounds of your opponents is not unfair.

Hawks played like that. But hawks didn’t dive, cheat, chopstick and repeatedly punch or injure opposition players on their way to success.

Wish we played like it, maybe we wouldn’t be pushed aside as easy.

I think they are a great side. But I don’t think their legacy will ever be respected in the way it could have

We have our problems sure. And a little toughness would go a long way

The old saying still applies mate, winners are grinners and the rest can please themselves.

This is what Richmond are now, what the Hawks were and what all dominant sides for sustained periods have. Hardness and a ruthless edge

I think the AO conditions will be better for the Tigers.

My day is complete .. now I know where Chris Scott has taken his match day facial expressions from

Does the tigers on field behaviour taint their success in the same way the eagles off field behaviour in the mid noughties hurt their legacy? Easily dirtiest players and tactics in the league.

How old are you champ?

Hawks & Bombers in the 80's ??? Don't you obviously remember Brisbane early 2000's they were ruthless, even Voss was questioned as being a sniper and arrogant and the worst sledger on the field.

Geelong and Hawthorn were also the same, remember when the cats and Freo used to play each other? or the Unsociable hawks?

I think this so called "playing dirty" is a load of crap and just jealous flogs who are sick of seeing a certain team win all the time.

Good teams play with confidence and people confuse it easily as smugness. Our time will end and so be it but the dislike will just go on to the next successful side.

Nice joke friend.
You are talking about a squad captained by a bloke who needed his mummy to come pick him up because of home sickness and is now openly dominated by a Karen he was forced to marry due to wedlock issues.

Also coached by a flog who ridicules male emotions yet broke himself down into a blithering jellyfish type mess in the changes rooms following the 2018 prelim because someone stole his sweets.

Bloody bitter Hawfmond twirps are the grease on the axels of the bay atm.

Sniping is not hardness. It is quite the opposite.

 

[frggr]

It's great - Richmond thought winning a couple of flags would automatically win them respect

 

[greatwhiteshark]

Full respect to the tigers from me, they play it hard, they play to win at all cost and like all really good sides they couldn’t give a rats what others think of them.
Remember the unsociable Hawks, you reckon those players and the club give a toss what was thought about them as they won flag after flag.
Do the Tigers cross the line every now and again? Yes they do. But they are there to win a footy competition not to win who the public like the most comp.
I wish we had the ruthless edge they have.
