Game Day - Richmond v Geelong Preliminary Final

[23.21.159]

Is that for this year 23?

Yes. 2019 only.

That may well be the case, Coburg. We all get frustrated at times. But at least you had the good sense and civility to keep those thoughts to yourself. That is a mark of the individual.
There is just no need for people to personally attack others in such hateful ways and dump their vitriol on others.
Interesting that I should call out a couple of posters for their banal and spiteful postings and they in turn decide to respond with foul and abusive messages into my mail box.
Says much about those persons.

While I liked and agreed with Coburgs post, personal and abusive messages to your mailbox is a disgrace. C'mon boys and girls, we're all Tigers and while we will all disagree at times, that sort of *smile* is not on!!

Lol people should read blobbo in the HS.

He so clearly had a loss piece ready to go on how we choked, but then had an editor run a pass inserting “but they didn’t”.

The piece is truly bizarre. 95% is about how **** we were in the first half.

Then it abruptly ends.

What a terrible, terrible journalist.

He wants Richmond to win the flag.

I’m guessing you got a message from the King of Kong. For any one that knows who Billy Mitchell is I kind of picture him as PRE’s Konger.

I don’t use the ignore button as it ruins the comedy of the game day thread after we win. Have been some rippers this year and I also have contributed to the comedy from time to time when my lost years mental demons kick in.

If Kong is Billy Mitchell, tommy, who is Steve Wiebe?

Loved Davo's stern face when that little fat boy was dictating the rules.

Ha, very true.

Great post Coburg, we all love our Tigers and the last few years have been just a momentous glorious ride but the scars of 37 years of **** still come to the surface occassionally

Sure do.
Even for me.
Last night the same but this time I was a more measured & believed.

 

[Ridley]

I reckon we’ve still got improvement in us. Our tackling and forward pressure was not where it usually is. Geelong broke a lot of our tackles and blokes like Rioli and Bolton were quiet.

We ramp up the heat and we’re extremely hard to beat.

 

[K3]

Amazing. Selwood says they were brave.
They only kicked two goals in the second half.

Tigerlove I haven’t watched it yet.

Can you honesty tell us that ‘dive free’ to Dangerdive did Chambermaid call out what the free was and to who , before he gave the 50?

You can clearly hear what the ump says on the video up on the clubs site. Is clear as day and doesn't back up what the drongo followed up with to Astbury!

 

[K3]

All he said was in the back. He didn't name a player to receive the free. I couldn't even see him point which way. Then he blew the whistle twice in quick succession and paid a 50 to Dangerfield. To me it was blatant cheating. He knew everyone was confused. 30 seconds to go on the clock as well.

And yet what comeuppence will be get?

 

[waiting]

FYI PRE.

 

[TigerForce]

FYI PRE.

Good stuff. If there's a player that deserves to play the GF, it's Jacky G.

Not sure Scotty. Some nice guy/gal dedicated posters on here that are real champions.

Watched some updates on Billy and the Donkey Kong saga on YouTube recently. A truly bizarre bloke and story.

I rate it in the top five docos of all time. The ultimate battle between good and evil with weirdo Walter Day officiating.

Didn't realise this , I know each quarter is 20mins plus time-on but if each quarter was 1 minute shorter Geelong would have kicked 3 less goals. They kicked 1 in 1st with less than a minute to go and 1 in 2nd and 3rd with 30 seconds to go. Really when you analyse deeply we were dominant.

PS the rain we were expecting originally last night is now coming down with force.

The lesson to my eyes is play the quarter out tigers. Don't give up soft goals in the shadows of the siren.
