Rumours and Stuff

At least Stef got out to see the sunlight of first grade.

Wearing a dress and setting himself on fire during training with Bea in 2020 clearly didn’t work. Stomping over Browny at will.

But if you are RCG with a Freddy Mercury moustache and a Redcliffe rumour, you’re worth a f**king kings ransom.

Come on, RCG has a bit of the imposter about him. Plays when he sees fit, usually around contract time.

Dogs security picked him up with gus and Barrett, but nobody recognised him!
Double quote after f**king things up? Check.

Complete gibber? Check.

Trying to define one's self by the team they support? Check.

Not realising he is being trolled? Check.

Carrying on stoically despite being a source of disappointment and amusement? Check

Great job. I look forward to your reply pointing out how shit we are when we already know we are shit. Keep the quality material coming.

Poor attempt at sarcasm and general Merkinese: check

Claiming to be worse than the tigers: priceless.

Well you're talking about getting to week three. Plenty of teams have gotten that far without meeting either of the eventual grand final teams. In our four finals outings since 2017 we've lost six games, four of them against the premiers or runners up that year. The other two losses were against the Storm (2019) and Souths (2020) - both better resourced clubs than ours.

If spending more money didn't get you a better team why would these clubs spend so much?
Plenty of teams have gotten to the grand final by causing upsets. Just because we played teams that were expected to beat us doesn’t mean it was impossible. You can’t use that excuse forever. At some point you need to make a breakthrough. We have the longest premiership drought of any club. Are you willing to wear that forever while watching other clubs take their chances when they come up while we don’t?

Keep hoping long enough and eventually an upset will happen.

It’s been 35 years. How much longer do you think is a reasonable amount of time to wait?
There is nothing reasonable about blindly expecting an inferior team to somehow triumph over a better one.

The recent examples you provided were clear examples of us being inferior. I get more pissed off when we are favourites and spill our lollies.
