Why we're in awe of Richmond: Access All Areas Grand Final edition - 2017 - AFL

[@brentwilkie2134]

Had a few very minor losses, and when played those same teams second time, they won every one of them. Finished 3rd on the table. Brownlow medalist, coach of the year. Won both finals games convincingly. Won the Grand Final convincingly, yet people are surprised and say they didn't deserve it? This is a CHAMPION team and CHAMPION club!

[@brentwilkie2134]

If we include the finals, they played Geelong, GWS (3 times), Adelaide twice. So all the top 4 teams. Beat them all.

[@shaunyd3]

richmond finished 13th last year thats why they played some lower ranked teams twice. richmond also had alot of friday night games in 2016 and because they finished lower they dont get the primetime games for this season.

[@johnarundell7951]

There are a lot of similarities between this team and Geelong '07 .. under performing after knocking on the door for a few years then flick the switch ruthless monster team :) so funny people doubting they will even be a force next year when they will be top 4 for the next 10 years. Look out AFL this is happening so get used to it! Won 9 of last 10 matches.

You should change your name to SALTY FIZZ

[@shaunyd3]

so each team who wins the premiership we should judge them by who plays them twice? the afl does their best job at the end of the season to figure out the schedule for the next season. the afl has no idea who will be in the finals for the next year and they schedule it as such. last year richmond finished 13th so the afl decided to put them on saturday afternoon and sunday afternoon games more. what deems a good side? i tell you what, its winning your games and having minimal losses. doesn't matter who you play. richmond will have a much harder draw for next season as they are the premiers. they will get friday night and saturday nights more and they will only play about five games on saturday or sunday afternoons. ONE LAST POINT. No one has given richmond any credit this year. they played hard attacking footy all season. they deserved it. can they back it up with another solid season? i hope so only time will tell.

[@johnarundell7951]

Brutal grand final tackle from Townsend on Crouch at 3:44 is what this team is all about :D

[@pizzablockspizzablocks5917]

I love the way the tigers play

[@robertocarlos-yi1sk]

Richmond were easily the best when it mattered most ( finals ). 2017 Premiers...end of story...

[@camwells9726]

Interesting looking back it this now after 3 premierships to this group, I’m a Richmond supporter and after this premiership I was content with the one , never for a second thought about dynasties

[@floridapmi]

It's 2021 and this video is still relevant.

[@PunkSpike]

cheers for the content boys, always watch AAA every Monday. See you next year!

[@goxaviergo11]

Never stare down a tiger. It never ends well.

[@brentwilkie2134]

Richmond's win cannot be compared to the Western Bulldogs, who finished 7th on the table and then fluked their way to the GF win (good for them). Richmond has more star players, and great new talent. Richmond finished 3rd and won all their finals games convincingly. Richmond will be a real force in 2018

[@rhetoric_]

and they beat Adelaide when it mattered most, a team with arguably the best defense and best offense. In my opinion, they beat the other three sides in the top four, who beat the sides in the bottom four. What can you take away from them?

[@taliamason7986]

Solar Fizz They thrashed Geelong. Bye or not, there is no excuse for Geelong's poor performance and Chris Scott's poor record in Finals which is staring to make me think he really isn't a good Coach after all.

[@stuckupcurlyguy]

I agree they had an amazing year but I don't know if their talent runs deep enough for them to be top 4 again next year. But who knows? We were underestimating them all year and they fooled us all. Maybe they'll go back to back.

[@paddygrindlay5096]

Smacked the Cats. Smacked the inform Giants. Smacked the inform Crows. From 3rd place. The Dogs. Smacked the Eagles. Smacked the Hawks. Scraped by the Giants. Scrapped to a great win over the Swans. Not dissimilar but the Tigers have a deeper list for mine.

[@mabiorcholappreciationpage]

Actually can be compared. Both teams finished 15 and 7, but the Dogs were lower on the table because of how many teams that finished on 16 and 6 or 17 and 5. The competition was really even in the Top 8 that year. Richmond only beat the Doggies in percentage when you compare their premiership year

[@MajesticSkywhale]

Richo being unable to even speak from crying so much was so nice to see

[@bot02525]

Here’s a joke... The Crows! #wecryasone #cowsgomoo

[@djizzah]

Dusty should have won best haircut award as well

[@beastlolz3793]

I like the Rugby vs AFL fights video :D!

[@mickcoram3579]

best team in the competition who couldn't beat a top 8 side away all year

[@brendonwatt6098]

I'm sorry where are grand finals played, let's not forget the fact that kids from all over dream of playing let alone winning on the mcg? Invalid comment and I'm a doggies supporter. They beat everyone who beat them except dogs and Sydney cause they played once in season and dogs didn't make finals Sydney didn't play against Richmond, and no one was going to stop them, they beat the top 4 across the finals, convincingly too, and Geelong flogged Sydney let alone what Richmond would've done. they beat port at home that year who made finals which has the most biased umpire dictating crowd in the country, and that's no secret, lost by 3 points to gws and geelong by 14 after a 6 game winning streak, bfd? Adelaide? Can't play away from home either if that's the case.. but it goes both ways and that's just it. Beat west coast and essendon, lost to Sydney by 9 points. Wow. Dogs by 5 at dogs home ground and who were still in good form at that part of the year, wow.... St Kilda and Adelaide only bad days out, every team has them. Other one being Fremantle but that's a different bad day out, at home. So it's not like Richmond are invincible? But yet they proved best team in the competition. They've won 3 in 4 years, 2020 on neutral territory or home ground advantage to Brisbane and port. So all the invalid nonsense all you haters can come up with mcg advantage cant win a season, no dynasty is mute not to mention completely untrue BS. Pay them respect, you're just coming off as a sad lowlife mongrel if you wanna hate for no god damn reason other than jealousy of success. You're probably the only sad loser on here hating because you have your own insecurities and need to take it out on a football team who'll never know you said anything by trying to belittle their achievements. 🤦🏻

[@DinoBoiiVlogs]

Tiger fan here......... awsome home and away season but s$&t finals but I liked the grand final also west coast and port game

[@naumiex9126]

As a crows supporter watching this in Melbourne, it was one of the most heartbreaking days of my life...

[@jasonevans4291]

naumiex 97/98 were good days for crows

[@BillyBowlster]

Would you prefer to have your heart ripped out watching the grand final again without knowing the end result, or rewatching season 2020?

[@naumiex9126]

BillyBowlster I’d rather rewatch the 2020 season we were never going to be anything special this year I just wanted to see improvement and I’m happy with what I saw in the second half of the season

[@MajesticSkywhale]

Has any team ever been Minor Premiers and Premiers in the same year while also having a single player take the trifecta of medals?

[@brendonwatt6098]

Nope. Dusty only player to ever get trifecta of medals and Richmond finished 3rd that year. Never been done

[@MajesticSkywhale]

@@brendonwatt6098 insane, I was just wondering about this again a few days ago, thanks so much!

[@brendonwatt6098]

All good bud, I like my footy stats and know what it’s like to have an itch, happy to help ☺️👌🏻

[@olliegrinners3224]

I've recently uploaded a video containing the best moments from this 2017 AFL season, much appreciated if you could check it out! Cheers.

Jack Stringer's value has nose dived after his ex has revealed what really has been happening in the Herald Sun paper on Saturday. Would ANY club still want him. Not worth a 1st or 2nd round pick.

[@sleepyoufool1]

Teunis Swart what did she say?

[@teunisswart8236]

This is just a small section from two pages. Abby Gilmore has had enough. She's not going to stay silent any longer to protect the football reputation of her estranged fiance, Jack Stringer, or the boys' club that is part of the AFL. It's taken a year of heartbreak and pain, but this week she found her voice. Her seemingly picture-perfect life was finally shattered when the footy WAG received a message from a 17 year old schoolgirl saying she was having sex with her fiance Stringer. Gilmore knows she will cop flak for speaking out. Blowing the whistle on the WAG lifestyle and toxic culture of sex, lies and gambling at the football clubs is regarded as out of bounds. With a six-week old baby, the couples second child, Gilmore 24 felt ashamed and humiliated as a seemingly endless parade of girls left messages with in your face taunts about their sex sessions with Stringer some sending nude photographs of the premiership player. "When it all blew up I was turned away from the club. I couldn't believe it, the senior people just didn't want to hear me out." she says. "But the Bulldogs players showed they cared. I'm proud of them for that. They were disgusted by his behaviour, doing that to me when I was pregnant. They let him know it. This was just a small section from the article. Well now we know why the Western Bulldogs are pushing out.

[@johnarundell7951]

Sydney was the best team for the last 4 months of the home and away season so please stop saying Adelaide was .. a few years ago Richmond got 15 wins and missed the top 4. Overrated flat track bullies.
