        Yeah your right Remi, too much made about it. In the end they should be happy with the progress they have made this season but as today shows they have a long way to go to take another step forward and be a genuine finals team.

            Bitter sweet for Chris Newman.

                    Too many downhill skiers.

                        Exactly they have too few players prepared to run the other way which is odd given how hard Damien Hardwick worked as player and how much of a tough bastard he was.
                        But then again, I'm an Internet poster and Bevo is a premiership coach so draw your own conclusions.

                            Actually thought the same way as I was watching the last quarter.

They did manage to lose what they really should have won though.

                                I don't dislike Richmond anymore. I have enjoyed watching them this year, they have played some exciting footy and their Tiger Army is extremely passionate. I've really noticed that since working at the MCG -- today was incredible. Never heard anything like it, standing near their grog/cheer squad with all their original chants etc.

                                Have a few genuine friends who support Richmond too, so I feel for 'em.

                                I absolutely hate Carlton (and Essendon) so anytime they win, I'm bitter

                                        The thought of them even having a grog squad just adds to my disdain for Richmond.
                                        I thought I was wrong once but I was mistaken.

                                                I feel sick for Chris. I've got a soft spot for the tigers - about 10 mates who go for them. The guy has waited 12 years to play 120 minutes and now back to square 1. Also - work is going to be hell tomorrow. I have been sticking it too all the damn blues supporters all week. It's going to be a long, long, long day....
