Richmond 2017 AFL Premiers

Ian4 I believe Optus stadium has been built to the same or close to dimensions of the MCG. So in time the WA clubs could not have a case, which I haven't heard noise from the West complaining. They have won 3 flags, Fremantle been unlucky.

No noise from Stdney. Sydney have won 2?. GWS will have their day in the sun as their game stacks up once they overcome their mindset and ferocity.

Port have won 1.

Adelaide 2, but all the whining has come from them, their supporters and media who hate the Tigers and how we won the GF with an unconventional set up and game plan.

Best of 3. Please.

Our game is unique, brutal, played over 120 mins and Australian.

No need to follow/copy other codes.

Ask the players( not the whining, complaining Crow supporters and team.

A GF is won on GF day not during the H & A season and oh did /was there this much uproar , angst when the Bulldogs came from 7 th to win???

That's right , NONE. They were the best team in the finals and on GF day.


2017 the RFC are the Premiers! End of story!

I laugh when I hear all this rubbish. when we won in September, there was a lot of positive media for us. but now that the monster has awaken, the haters are coming out to criticise us. I just play on it and give it as much as they give. and never forget that whatever they say or think, they history books will always say we are 2017 premiers. and we'll rub it in even more when we go back to back.

It's a compliment to us. Those that lack class and grace try to discredit the feats of the RFC. Why? Because they're turning green in front of us. Why? Because they know how big this club is; and now the house is in order, they know the RFC is on the verge of sustained success and they can't stand it. *smile* 'em!!

For example, those flogs in the Carlton cheer squad with their pathetic little banner "Not as sweet as 16" prior to our unfurling of the flag in round 1. Half of those flogs didn't even see their 16th it was so long ago. I'll bet they'd trade half of their 16 they won before the automobile was invented for 1 now.

Let them all turn green!! If they haven't already, wait until we go Back2Back!!

Go Tiges!!

do you seriously thing they would be peddling this nonsense about home ground advantage and needing to play a best of 3 GFs??

How good would that have been? Pumping Adelaide two weeks in a row.

Best of 3. Please.

so what is Mike Sheahan's view (or anyone that is for changing to best of 3) on drawn GF's? I'm tipping he is for extra rime as opposed to a replay so we don't have to come back next week, right?
 
Ian4, the players view after the drawn was to play extra time not come back.

Ask the players, what I've heard is they were spent.

GF replays is maximising the $ for the AFL. Clubs participating should get the bigger slice,so should the winner.

Sheehan and his Melb love in Lyon ( both haters of the RFC ) and what we achieved beating those soft , robotic Crows should be concerned with their side who have achieved nothing, so far played no one and saying more about who soft the Crows were on GF day.
Also should be campaigning that GF should be for the fans not corporate people who don't follow the game or may not support either team on GF day. Corporate sponsorship, well there are plenty games and finals for that!

Sheehan wants relevance since he left or got pushed from the subscription based Herald Sun.

No one from WA has complained.

Garry should stick to what he knows best.

Scott from Geelong can be added too. Can't wait for the return Crows game and the Cats.
 
Best team of the year in 2017? The side who had an 18-7 record compared to Adelaide’s 17-7-1

We won the grand final by 8 goals .... 8 goals

We could have played on Rundle mall and still would have won. Pffft , the cup is in the trophy cabinet.

I guess people are forgetting that the afl grand final is always played on Adelaide oval. We got a lucky break that the afl transferred it at the last minute, unbeknown to everyone, to that toy ground , the MCG ::)

Just confirmed it publically on Open Mike with Flea tonight: "I can't say I've always had a lot of affection for the Richmond footy club..."

Quick as a flash Flea says "Yeah, we always knew that."

Trolls that can't get over what happened last September. It's a bad dream they think they will wake up and the flag will disappear.

I've never heard so much negativity.
*adelaide are apparently still the best from last year, incorrect
*we should've played in Geelong... Did Collingwood ever play in Geelong
*it should be the best of 3
*it was a fluke. 1st final 8 goal win, 2nd final 6+ goal win and the GF another 8 goal win

"Richmond won a flag? But the dee's have had a better list since 87! Something's not right! We should change the rules! Play the GF Interstate, unless the Dees make it. Undo the history of football and make it a Grand final series."

"All the astute experts like me, mike n Dal are aware the crows where the better side. Maybe the premiers each year could be awarded by a three way vote!"


"Anyone wanna bring their wife and daughter and come out to dinner?"*







*Yeah, harsh! But the guy has done nothin but cry n moan that the crows should have been premier's in 2017 since 1/2 time on grand final day! I'm pretty dam sick of his rambling salt spewing!

"Ohhh, derrrrrr, oh, ah oww, ah, wha, oh ah..."

"Ar Gaz, Richmond yeah? Nah, nah, yeah, lets change the rules! Yeah, yeah Gaz!"

"Oh, Cotchin in my top 50? Ohhh, derrrrrr, oh, ah oww, ah, wha, oh ah.."

"Nah, not good enough!"

"We all know that Hirdy was innocent. 2000 injections off sight? So what, just cause no one kept any records. Doesn't matter! Irrelevant that we hired a guy who imported banned vitamins. Wheres the proof?"

"The world should reinstate Hirdy back to God status. Cotchin the cheat should never have accepted Jobe's medal. Even though Jobe never gave it back, Jobe should be acknowledged as the Brownlow medLIST."


"Anyway, we will win the flag in 2018. I should know and Im not biased at all to my football club! Oh and ban Dusty's dont argue!"

"I hate the RFC too, not that anyone cares!"
 
Sheahan probably hates Richmond because we were the first team to move to the MCG and then became the team that Melbourne probably think they should have become in the late 60s and 70s.
