gillard's legacy

 

[Jono]

The changes to the AOTY veterans rule really played into his hands don't you think?

Too cluttered.

 

[Jono]

Yeah I've seen that one but North have always been poor ****s who need to sell their whole guernsey to get any sponsors. Will wait and see what the other teams look like.

 

[benchmark00]

Bingle.

 

[Jono]

Blue chip sponsor

 

[benchmark00]

If Richmond were sponsored by that Bingle their games would almost be watchable.

Too cluttered.

get rid of the nmfc part then

Pretty much every club have their initials at the top there.

 

[Jono]

plenty of room

Richmond celebrating not having to lose the deposit on their end of season trip, scheduled in the second week of September.

 

[Jono]

Haha at you having to change that usual joke and adding second week in September #madefinals

Did you guys start doing that when you were the "Kangaroos FC", and just kept it since?

 

[Jono]

Kangaroos FC, what a low moment for them that was.

Yeah, think that was the case.

 

[benchmark00]

Dat NMFC hype.

 

[Jono]

Is it huge post-Dal? Not being a dick etc, genuinely curious. Haven't followed too much, but I can imagine that the hype around the club and its base will be similar to when we got Cousins at start of 09 (talking from my experience alone obviously). I remember everyone was puuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuumped.



Great year that was

The hype for North is coming externally though, Richmond's hype has always come from their own supporters.

Can't remember this many articles about North in an off season. Seems like every news service is carrying a story about North every week.

Helps that we have supporters I guess, whereas North need external assistance


In all seriousness though, got a lot to do with the fact everyone knows Roos underachieved last year. On paper, should definitely make the 8, and prob top 6.
