I've been absolutely shattered with this season.

There is no reason why we shouldn't be higher up the ladder than we are. We certainly have enough talent to finish in the 8 - 13 range, but through ineptitude of our fitness and conditioning, our previous coach copying and pasting everyone else's game plans, we've absolutely stunk it up.

Work has been a massive interference in the last few weeks, but thank god in a way. We have sucked more than ....well can't think of anything PG rated, so let's just say we suck. The fact that Jade left coburg to take on the richmond job, has also meant that coburg has been destabilised, and a side that was doing OK, has wobbled past the finish line with ineptitude only the likes of which could be termed classic richmond.

I'm just so looking forward to this season being over. I have no interest in it. None. Now I know we've got either Hardwick or Hinkley through an exhaustive process, I don't really care. I think either of them will be OK, so long as the club spends enough on it's support staff to help them. We're stuffed for another 3-4 years I think, and that's if we get everything else right.

Dark days ahead, thanks to messrs Wallace and Miller.
 
Worst season ever for me, which does speak volumes. It was over very early this year, not even a chance to get wound up with the inevitable false hope. At least false hope is something...No more 5 year coaching deals. Scary when you look forward to the draft more than the footy itself...
 
Been a real nothing year for me. Afetr Rd 1, I have just been waiting for the changes. Losses haven't hurt like they should and the highlights are gonna be off the field.
 
No surprises for me in 09 must say.

In fact 09 has had some highlights with duds being exposed once and for all allbeit 2-3 years too late , Post, Rance and Vickery getting game time and best of all the King Sultana being given the ass, after a disatrous 5 wasted years.

Now if we can just shred the list in half things are looking up.

Just imagine if our centennial game was this season.....
 
I'm with ya boys... I can barely watch an entire game anymore.

Been questioning where my loyalties lie, but sounds like everyone's in the same boat - so hopefully the love for the Mighty Tigers is in there somewhere! Just gotta find it again
 
I never thought I could agree with Claw, but he is right...he has been a soothsayer! :hihi
After round one this year, it stuck that yep, the spin, the promises and the croneyism that RFC has become was all we had.... just drivvle.
Until the wash out happens, and this includes the croneys on the board, we may be doomed for more of what we are getting.
I can't bear to take my kids to watch the trash we keep serving up every week. Thank God I have booked holidays again in September so I can escape the Scumwood supporters bragging...
Gotta be tough and loyal to support this club
 
Who are these cronies on the board you're talking about ?
 
Yep,year from hell.

I lashed out and bought 5 AFL memberships for the family and I'm the only one that's stupid enough to still keep going.
Cant blame them, the wife says we'll have family services after us for child abuse if we take the kids. :)

In hindsight the season was probably over at quarter time of Round 1, by which time we had already plummeted to a 5-goal deficit.
 
And now our internal affairs are being conducted non circus like we have nothing of interest to offer the media.

We are now the most boring side. Fremantle and the Kangaroos have excited me more in last week than our side has all year.
