Even after all these years - and even after it was caught on camera - I have yet to hear a commentator or anyone one KZbin mention how, at the end of the game, Trent Cotchin ran half the length of the ground to commiserate with Brett Deledio, who was understandably gutted. What a class act Cotchin is.

I know, will forever be remembered as one of the greatest Tigers ever

A crowd has never been that loud because never in the history of the game has there been such a one sided crowd. There would have been at least 90,000 Richmond fans there. It was deafening inside the ground.

He had to leave. Simply a selfless act, because we needed the younger players. In the end, he did what was best. I can’t imagine how he feels to not be in yellow and black after the granny. Hopefully he can return the the tiges at the end of his career

This was my very first and indeed the best Preliminary Final that I've ever been to in person, along with my best friend and my cousins this was and always will be my all time favourite moment. We were indeed seated one row behind the Richmond Tigers Football club Cheer Squad and OMG, it was indeed so loud and so passionate.

[@alexjackson2823]

​@@truefunksoul8638 the reason there were a lot of supporters at that game was because it was the first prelim you had played in in 37 years mate, Collingwood make the finals all the time so its just like any other year mate. We hold the all time yearly crowd turnout record of all time in 2010 having 1,600,000 supporters go to our games that year and an average of 60,000 supporters a game which is the all time record. Ricmonds highest yearly turnout is 1,300,000 and that year we weren't even that good and we got 1,100,100. These are proper statistics because look at all the afl crowd turnout tables. Literally in 2010 we played you guys and all the richmond supporters that turned up were in the cheer squad (watch the game) and the rest of the stadium was filled up with 70,000 magpies fans. Yes you guys are the second most popular VFL team but we are the top overall in popularity ever since we were established. Don't get me wrong I loved watching this game and the atmosphere was incredible and I am happy for you guys. Also I go for the Cats so I'm just stating non Biased facts.

[@ardaozgan6507]

My favourite goal was the Dan Butler goal at the end beautiful and I’m a proud Richmond Tigers supporter Trent Cotchin played a beauty and just saying Richmond are playing Port Adelaide in the prelim and even if we lose I’m so proud of these boys they have been outstanding for the last 4 years and I hope we can keep it up GO THE TIGESSSS 🟡⚫️🟡⚫️ 🐯🐯🐯

[@arconeagain]

@M AFL/VFL is by far the biggest sport in the world per capita. The record crowd at the MCG for a VFL Grand Final far exceeds any other world record when considering the population of Victoria at the time. The percentage of the population at that game, when looking at Australia's total population, was off the charts. But you wouldn't know anything about that because ignorance is bliss, ay.

[@arconeagain]

@M the population of Brazil in 1950 was almost 55 million. The population of Australia in 1970 was just 12.5 million. The Australian attendance smashes the 1950 world cup. Per capita, do you know what that means? Do the mathematics. For an equivalent crowd per capita, it would mean there would need to be around 529 thousand people at the world cup.

Now I can finally say it, but I wasn't one of the many, many people who were declaring Greater Western Sydney certainties to win this year's premiership 6 months ago, 12 months ago, or at various stages throughout this season. Come to think of it, what do GWS and Geelong both have in common? Neither of them are capable of beating quality opposition either interstate or away from home, that's why both of them have ended up being Preliminary Final losers.

[@johnarundell7951]

They've basically never done anything yet and I've never rated them either with overpaid and overhyped stars everywhere who go missing when the real heat is on. You can add the Crows to that list. What have they actually done away from Adelaide in terms of achievements as a team in the last few years? Nothing.
