AFL 2017

Crows very sloppy. 2 point lead.
-
Boo. Tigers hit the front. (Deservedly)
-
Good qtr for the baddies. 9 point game.
Smothering d by Tiges. Compounded by sloppiness by Crows.
Still in the balance but Richmond looking better.
Crows need some bounces to fall their way.
-
One way traffic. 5 goal lead
-
Whey hey. Got one. Tex
Still 2p points down.
-
Getting embarrassing
-
3qt and it's only 7 goals.

Yellow and black , premiers , fuck yeah

Only saw about 40 minutes at the end but fuck that's a good assessment.
Reminds me of the last time the Swans got fucking slapped in a GF
Tigers did that week in week out all year , was quite amusing people giving them no credit .
Flogged every team in the top 4 come finals , and people kept picking them to lose , it's party time in Richmond tonight
-
Oh yeah. Well done the Tigers supporters hereon. @kiwiinmelb and a couple of others
-
How about them apples?! Awesome to be a part of this. Still feel like a bit of an imposter but at least I started supporting them when they were unreservedly shit. Best moment was the final couple mins when my good mate had tears coming through. Reminded me of the 2011 RWC final. Some happy lads tonight and Richmond was chaos. Yellow and Black!I

Crows choking on a big black n yellow Schlong here
Choked they were. Tigers just swamped them. Must have had twice as many players on the park the pressure they put on constantly.
Crows couldn't buy a trick.
Pooh. Bum. Wees.
I genuinely couldn't be happier. Was panicking a little after the first quarter when we were playing better footy but could get any recognition on the scoreboard. That third quarter was amazing how well they shut down the Crows' possession.
Commiserations @booboo on losing with the better team all year, but sometimes fairytales come true. That arse whopping you gave us earlier this year helped us address some key issues; namely contestable possession.
With such a young squad, there's no reason we can't win another two or three times in the next 10 years.

@westcoastie said in AFL 2017:
@Rembrandt they're called Nineth-mond for a good reason...
TBH, they've rejigged their game-plan massively from last season - their top-6 players (Rance, Dusty, Cotchin, Riewoldt, Prestia and take your pick of Caddy or Houli) are genuine stars who if they fire will take them deep into finals. Typically though, if your bottom-6 players aren't much chop this is where they might get found out in this years finals. Personally, I see them bowing out the week before the Grand Final. But if they keep improving into 2018, pick up a couple of decent players in trade time, next year looks promising.
They could win it though if they make it to the big one and their top-6 fire. I think Grand Finalists more likely to come from Sydney, Geelong, Adelaide & GWS - all of whom have more recent finals experience and proven big-game players.Wow. Richmond. Thought they'd go out in week 1, but I did say they could win it if they made the big dance.
