They are probably around the same stage as where we were back in 2009 or so where we lost a heap of close games by under 12 points. The next season we improved by around 2 goals/game and started winning those close ones. Wouldnt surprise to see richmond do that next year

Agree. Will be thereabouts next year.

Yes, this may be the case, but we still made finals in 2009. If Hardwick doesn't take this team into finals next year, they'll be calling for his head, if they aren't already - they were expecting finals this year!!!!

I won't lie, I almost teared up I was that happy. Mainly for my boy.

Thought we were gone a few times.

Season 2012 hasn't panned out like I hoped but I was damn proud to be there tonight supporting the boys. Thank you for a great win!

Not over yet. Might not beat Syndey next week but can still win the next 4 after with some class back in.
Love the endevour and never die attitude by the players today = proud!!
Hopefully Ratten is getting some acknowledgement from within as well right now = deserves it!!
He is still learning. Casboult needs to stay in the side, is showing some good signs especially in the wet.
Well done baggers - just have a real dip next week and remember the finals are alive still!

Was commenting more on the where the respective teams sat with respect to development.

As for finals in 09 and tigers missing this year, I can only say... sakc ratten?

Yes for MPH & Son

The boys did it for you, for us, for mankind.

The last few minutes of that match are the most fun I've had at a game for quite a while.

And I didn't have to listen to Brian Taylor!

Win win!

It certainly did. Just home from the game, have no voice left. Suck shit Richmond, suck shit to those moron umpires who tried to ruin a good game. I'm so happy.
Hope you enjoyed the game MPH78, i know i did.
i love Murphy.

if we win with a similar team on the park next week im calling out for blueman

fmd if i was a richmond supporter id have given up a long time ago.

I have to watch the replay, but I swear Tbird after his little tap to Garlett was celebrating the goal before it was kicked

Yep, definitely a sneaky early fist pump in there.

Never seen him happier. Even after wins!

He was

Brian Taylor really did sound as though he was holding a Funeral Service after the game....

His voice was sombre and almost breaking with emotion as the Richmond Team was shown crying in the rooms; and when the cameras zoomed in on Newman who was hiding under his guernsey; it was just too too much for BT; as he sadly handed the mike over to Richo who continued the mourning as manfully as he could; with help from Darcy......one of sporting TV's saddest ever episides.....
