We will make finals next year,,,,,

no way, not a chance in hell

with a big cull which will lead to less experience around we will be like melbourne next year, not upset thou as this needs to be done.

Please don't start this rubbish!

I just want some decent tackling, shepherding, mongrel and desire.

Finals will come.

Agree...we'll have a bunch of under 24s running around next year....no chance of finals for at least 2 years imo

Haven't seen this in a long time! Go tigers!
 
I hope not. We made the finals prematurly under Frawley and look where that left us. List culling plans were thrown out the window as the thought of being Richmond's first premiership coach in upteen years stroked his ego and we are where we are because of it. We need to finally bottom out like Melbourne, Carlton, WCE etc have done.
 
You know what the really sad part is ??? I haven't even dreamt or fantasized of making the finals in 15 years.

Don't reckon I will in the near future either.
 
Goodness me. Some people just don't learn.

We are light years away. A change of coach won't result in September action next year....it will take a long time to get our list up to scratch, and eradicate the poor habits learned under the previous coach.
 
Re: We will make finals next year...

Oh dear me... not quite delusional thinking, maybe evidence of dereistic thinking, where one's thinking is not in accordance with the facts of reality and experience and following illogical, idiosyncratic reasoning!

In addition, so many of us go along year to year and week to week and exhibit something called magical thinking. The statement "We will make finals next year..." is an example of magical thinking... a belief that merely thinking about an event in the external world can cause it to occur. It is regarded as a part of our early childhood development and is considered normal in those instances, or may reach delusional proportions when the individual maintains a firm conviction about the belief, despite evidence to the contrary!
