Go for premiership or give Carlton the spoon?

[Ghost of Punt Road]

I saw the score of Brisbane against Carlton, and explained to my wife (giggling all the while), that I have waited a long time to watch Carlton get flogged every week.

She suggested there is probably a forum for people like me.

"Yes", I replied, "It is called the Richmond football club.


I honestly don't think we have the team to win the cup this year, without luck. Maybe next year. BUT, Gold coast are really the only thing keeping Carlton from the spoon. We have the power....we can give them the nudge past the blues....

Personally, I don't feel we can lose tomorrow

Wadaya recon?

I don't think the Tankers need our help to win the spoon. They are in full tank mode and will win it fair and square on their own!!

Turn it up. I hate Cartoon but tomorrow is probably the most winnable of our remaining games (unless Jimmy boy stays on).

This - they and their supporters (I know a few) who are barracking for every loss in the home straight. The big tank is on down there.

That is their plan, finish bottom, lose the Kruise to FA, end up with pick 1 & 2, Brisvegas will be thinking the same

The ideal scenario for next year is that Carlton and Essendon duel it out for the spoon.

Seeming pick 1, 2 are so even , u can sence pick 2 is the premier pick this draft, so spoon this year has no benefits over second last

And unlike when Ratts took over from Pagan, Barker hasn't been told, 'just keep losing and you've got the job.'

Still have the wooden spoon posted to me by a Carlton supporter in 2007, complete with a "letter" purporting to be from the Richmond FC. Waiting for the chance to mail it back. Go Lions!

What a wonderful weekend - the wobblies lose (they were brave) - the bummers thrashed (even braver) then the scum thrashed (were they brave or just kidding?) - a shame every weekend can't be like that.
