Talking Footy

I'm a Richmond supporter (since early 70's) and a Port Power supporter (since they joined the AFL), so you'll see me post messages to both AFL team pages. I'm not greedy.......I was an avid follower of the Port Magpies in the SANFL, so their entry into the AFL caused me a huge dilemma.

Since Port has at least won one game....and hopefully another tomorrow, I'll probably be posting there more than here.....for now

Anyway, for other Tiger fans, just be patient. We have a few good players to return so there is something to look forward to a bit later in the season. The other good sign is the current form of the fast, young brigade. It seems to me the style now needed to win AFL pemierships. We just need to avoid those dreadful injuries.

Go the Tiges!! :P

As a Sydney supporter I was very worried at 3 qtr time and early in the 4th. If only Richo could kick straight the result could have been different. How many shots on goal did he have that missed?

And it was everyone elses fault too.

"It was too hard of angle to kick",
"it was too far out, I had to reach too far for the mark",
" it was already your fault before you kicked it",
"it was already your fault before you woke up",
"it was already your fault before you were born".

He's an overrated pretty boy who can't go a full season with some injury and the Tigers will be a more competitive team without him.

I'm hoping Richo has some tall timber support tonight. The game is about to start and the coach wasn't saying yes or no to Troy Simmond's inclusion on the news. If he's in, the talls and fast runners may just get over the top of the Magpies.
