    Richmond really are the gift that keep on giving.
    They will be as long as they keep giving spots on their list to hacks from other clubs and state leagues.
    They say Burt Lancaster has one, but I don't believe them.

        You really know how to drive home a point TD.
        TF is this?.........Obviously you're not a golfer.

          We could have had Wright, another early pick (for Griffen) and a whole lot of salary cap room instead of Boyd. Big Tom better make the grade or it could burn quite a bit.
          The curse is dead.

            8. Marchbank went 6 for GWS and Paul Ahern at 7.

            I vaguely recall Macca saying that our draft pick was playing in the TAC Grand Final. We assumed at the time it was Wright.

            I dare say it would have been Wright at 6 to us and Marchbank at 7 to GWS had the Boyd trade not gone through.

              The AFL must be furious Sydney copped a loss with the final kick of the game against Richmond & Dogs now. It's making it harder for dual prelims in Sydney and a GWS vs Sydney GF this year.

                My goodness should I bother reporting on the once rivals, but now their games are like one giant love in.

                  He was impressive, but really Stkilda have very ordinary tall backs .

                    We made that game one of the most irrelevant games in history, no one cared about it after ours.

                      We did the same last year. Robbo tweeted that there were people in bars at the MCG after the 1.45 game watching the last quarter of ours.

                        I've seen some vision of Gresham from the Saints over the last few weeks. Impressive youngster

                          Agreed. The Saints are really only 2 years behind us and I expect them to be a strong team in a few more. Problem is they'll lose some key players in Montagna and Riewoldt by then. They also just lack that Stringer or Bont type player, although they have high hopes for Billings re. the match winner.
                          But then again, I'm an Internet poster and Bevo is a premiership coach so draw your own conclusions.
