BY THE TAIL: Bernie boosted to bring Tigers back from brink of extinction
Prominent Liberal upper house Victorian MP Bernie Finn is set to be drafted to the board of the Richmond Football Club by members fed up with the poor on-field performance of the once powerful club.
Finn’s move has grown from the grassroots of the club, with supporters urging Finn to step forward to save the club he loves:
Bernie, can you get rid of the faceles rich on the board ASAP please? We were alays a working mans/womans club. We were never the toffs. We need passionate RICHMOND people. keep Freezer but the rst can follow the sun tan kid off into the glare of his setting solarium!
Bustling Bernie has declined to speculate on his board plans other than acknowledge the groundswell of popular support.
The potential board member and master strategist has indicated to the left-wing press this morning that he regards the appointment of former Essendon champ and hard-man Damien Hardwick as a step in the right direction.
Those wishing to urge Bernie Finn to become Richmond’s new driving force should sign up to the “Bernie for the Board” facebook group.

Havent we suffered enough,what have we done to deserve Bernie.
someone else for richo to snuggle up with
Bernie is the man for the job. A thinking man’s Eddie McGuire.
Over my dead body…
I have stacked the ballot already, and it won’t be on Xmas Eve, smart arse.
Is Bernie available to sign up as full back, we’ll wedge him between the posts to make it impossible to get goals below 6 foot. Big advantage…
See I’m already making excuses: “Season 2010 isn’t so much about winning or losing, it’s about regaining respect and laying the foundations to build a team to achieve a period of sustained success,” Hardwick said.
Sort of didn’t mind Richo, till i discovered he was a Lib.
Isn’t it wonderful my MPs have so little to do that they can play around with football clubs.
Woe is me. I am surrounded by yob c*nts.
I will not allow this.
Labor MP chatting with violent partner
And Rudd screams obscenities at his caucus and they all bow before him.
Bernie should run the Liberal Party. That is far more important than a football team.
Eat ‘im alive, Tigers!
Richmond?
Isn’t that a workingman’s team old chap?
The way Bernie has been training in the gym he could just about make the team going on this years efforts. Regardless of what side of politics he is you dont have much going for you at tigerland at present.Just look what Jeff did for the mighty Hawks
Nice hair colour
I shall be President and Bernie shall be my Queen.
All depends what KB has to say about it.
THe Richmond board could use an injection of fresh, aggressive, enthusiastic people.
Our current board has done done a stellar job, financially. We now need to take the next step and make a couple of astute appointments for 2010.
Bernie could get some advice from his radio buddy the she-mighell about how not to be chased out of office from a footy club by torches and pitchforks like he managed to do at the tigers sister club Coburg
The last thing Richmond needs is a lazy lay about like Bernie Finn. Actually in the interests of the party I suggest the Party should pay him to move on to Richmond.!!!
Bernie Finn is a top bloke, but can he undo the damage of Terry Wallace?
