No FTA & no radio in Sydney and ........ we win !!
Can't take a trick .......
All I know after receiving a phone call is that Cripps played a blinder and the whole team played like men possessed.
Have to ask the question again, how much of this is attributable to Malthouse going and how much is it to do with a new game-plan & attitude ??
The other thing is, what has today done for Barker's chance of getting the gig next year ??
New coach = new attitude = happy supporters !!
Nice to know they are going to be competitive every week from now, it was so hard to stomach some of the performances earlier in the season.
The other thing is, some players who would have been considered a strong chance to be shown the door at the end of the season may end up being offered an extension if they keep up this renewed level of application. Its easy to boot guys who are just going through the motions but now, those who are busting their buns week after week deserve to be rewarded for that level of persistence.
Sheik,
You can open afl.com.au and click on the game that you want to listen to and then click on listen live or something like that. You will have a choice of several radio stations streaming the game live to listen from.
The "don't deserve to be there" argument never had any legs to it IMO.
No doubt KB will raise it, Gerard still fuels it and the majority of non Carlton supporters believe it.
Yes like most of the tigers supporters who were bitching about us not having a right to be there on Sunday. Just laughed and made the victory all the more sweeter.
What a great win by the blue baggers. My BIL is a Richmond support and I absolutely gave it to him, bombarded him with about 10 SMS's after the game. The team was just fantastic and I have to agree with most of the posters about it been the second best final that I have seen apart from winning grand finals, the 1999 prelim been the best.
I thought that playing Riewoldt up the ground played into our hands as Edwards could not kick straight and Vickery was not as effective as he has been in the past. If Edwards was the leadup forward and Riewoldt takes the marks in front then he would of more likely converted those points into goals. The guys just don't give up and MM has instilled into them a never die attitude. They play for him and they will walk over hot coals for him. He has earned his pay this year and is worth ever cent. I only wish that Geelong would of won on Saturday as we would play them in the prelim instead of Freemantle in Perth. However in the words of MM one week at a time. Go Bluessssssssssssssssssssss.
