You have to hand it to Richmond supporters they went through 37 years of absolute rubbish.... I’ve felt with 20 and I’m going mad.... humility it’s all about humility
You don't appreciate the good times without the bad times. The bad times also help you respect opposition supporters going through the same times. It'll come!
Im a bombers fan and i tell you one thing, i can relate to richmond fans like never before. Our club is rubbish atm and dont know when our turn will come next. Been 20 years already and 16 with no finals win.
@@bergasms Spot on - As a member, I took my young son to games during the bad times after 2005 - we never left early, even when we got flogged - and yes, we were at THAT Geelong game at Marvel. Through tears after that game he asked me why we didn't leave early. I told him we stayed to the end because loyalty was important and that it will be so much sweeter one day when we win. I never gave that comment much thought after that until, on the day of the 2017 GF, he rang me from a GF party (a bit pissed, but he rang me right after the siren) and yelled down the phone 'Dad, you were right - being at all those bad losses DOES make it feel sweeter!' He was 20 years of age at the time and I told him that when we last won in 1980 I was his age. All good things come to those who wait. One of the nicest days of my life was the next day when he sat down with me and we watched 'Game Day' when Bachar Houli guested (what a champ) and then watched the replay over a few beers. A great weekend.
MANCHESTER UNITED Mate no one cares about soccer at the moment, we clicked on this vid to watch an AFL documentary and your over here boasting about soccer. We want to watch a game that real men and women play and don’t mess around being wimps. Your so stupid for commenting on this video and also stupid for thinking that there and 240+ countries in the world, there are on 195.
@MANCHESTER UNITED F.C HA.. yep, the most popular sport on earth, riddled with match fixing, fans smuggling flares and weapons into games and tax-evading players and coaches.. no sport on earth is more political than 'the world game' you speak of and no sport on earth has fans who are disliked and ignored more than 'the world game'..
as a young bloke i felt very lucky to see nearly the whole 1980 season including the grand final, i was at a new school and met a couple of tigers fans, we joined the cheersquad and went to all the games, it was a magic season Richmond were dominant ,it felt so special, didnt think it would take so long to win another but the last 4 years have been a great ride.
I'm only just turned 20 but I've been watching the AFL since around 2005/06, and remember watching a lot of Collingwood vs Sydney Swans games on tv. I played for the Pottsville tigers. I remember the Richmond tigers being pretty bad back then, it was around 2016 they got their fight back. 👍
After supporting and following and being a fan of The Richmond Tigers Football club since I was in Grade 4 (Thanks to my Grade Four School teacher who managed to brainwash a few of the students in their class including me to follow the Richmond Tigers. LOL!) I remember the wins the losses and Matthew Richardson leaving was absolute heart breaking, also with getting Ben Cousins (from what I remember, he had alot of problems the poor guy,) not making it to the grand final and 2016 was the lowest point of the Team, Club, Fans and everyone in the Richmond Tigers Football club, it was so gut wrenching. However I kept the faith, I kept praying and I kept on Believing in the team, The Richmond Tigers Football club, I knew that they will never give up, even when times are tough, losing one game to the next and winning another and of course the occasional draws, in 2017 all i wanted for Easter was a Richmond Tigers membership and that year was the most epic and insane year of my life, Richmond Tigers making it to the Grand final in 2017, I wasn't there in person but my mum let me decorate the family unit in Richmond colours with posters, banners, streamers and balloons, even the next door neighbour did the same thing and they are too are a Richmond fan and member. It was the best 2017 grand final ever, also I managed to watch The 2017 Preliminary final when they faced the Giants, me and my best friend who came with me to game, we sat behind the Richmond Tigers Cheer Squad and it was the most memorable and enjoyable and an insane football game ever. Richmond Tigers , thank you so very much for the 2017, 2019 and the 2020 grand final wins, I will still be there to support the amazing club ever. Thank you. 😊 😊 🐯🐯🐅🐅
I remember doing exactly that with my young son after the heartbreaker v. Essendon at a Dreamtime game, when Richo kicked what we thought was the winning goal but had a free kick and 50m paid against him instead. He was shattered.
That guy was in the row in front of us at the 2019 prelim. He had this big tiger head strapped to his chest. Cool and friendly guy, and he did a great job energizing the fans around us.
I used to cop a lot of crap from my friends Before the 2017 grand final because I go for the tigers. And as we all know Richmond didn't win for 37 years.
Taylor was a Terrible Leader. He always goes missing in Big Games. He was a passenger in the 2017 AFL Grand Final. They should of sacked him years ago.
