Richmond are all about momentum. If they ever get momentum, they can’t be stopped.

Exactly and when you get ahead of your opposition its easier to do the 1% ers that help a side to win…scoring more goals is a bonus.

What gets me is Richmong players didn’t get any booze to drink out of the cup…they’re all such cheap bastards they assumed booze was already there!

And it’s won Richmond a flag

So you kick to Hooker…or Stewart…or Begley…or Raz.

Richmond made a virtue out of necessity, since Griffiths was injured.

It won’t cause that sort of fundamental change.

Biggest armchair ride in a GF I can remember in that first half. Terrible.

Won’t talk to dustin without ralph.

oh my

Not the same Adelaide .team. Tiges played v well. No passengers.

I wish Rance wasn’t such a flog

I don’t get it, I really don’t. None of this makes any sense. Richmond are actually premiers.

No, ■■■■-chin is a turd of the first order. Shouldn’t have even been on the field so he can get ■■■■■■.

As has been said Richmond went harder at the contest, dominated clearances it seemed to me and just scragged it forwards their way where they would run hard, pressure and get goals. Adelaide had absolutely no zip through the middle, didn’t try and pressure Richmond back so were never really in the contest. Nearly every one of Adelaides forward entries was a bomb onto their heads with easy pickings for defenders and Richmonds midfielders were always there to outnumber and sweep it out. To say Richmond won because of the umpiring is giving no credit to the team that worked harder and executed its gameplan to come away with a win.

If Essendon want to move forwards next year, this is how they have to play and if they can add in some cleaner ball movement and make use of the great forward line we have, even better.

Ah well. At least we don’t have to obsess about how we lost Jenkins anymore. Gary Rohan now has some company for worst ever grand final games. X-posed.

Trent Cotchin. Brownlow Medallist and Premiership captain.

Get your head around that.

Time to hit the trade table.

After watching the Bulldogs last year, Tigers this year, I really hope the players believe it can be us sooner rather than later.

Tigers to a man played like their coach did today. Every contest was an opportunity to hurt a crow.
