How to beat Richmond next week

The good news is Richmond are currently being thrashed by the pies. I reckon if we can win then suddenly all the focus will turn to Hardwick.

I reckon Frawley can hold Riewoldt. Maybe Royal could prove he is a good midfield coach by working out how to shut down Martin, Cotchin and Deldio and there other runners.

I think we need to bring Tapscott back because he and Magner in there will at least provide some toughness. Tapscott doesnt back down at all and he was at least 1 positive last year.

Hopefully Clark can stand up again and it would be nice to see Jamar smash Maric. I reckon we can win but the players confidence is so low.

Or maybe not.

With that midfield, against ours, we're in for a tough afternoon.

Next week

Their midfield: Martin, Cotchin, Foley, Deledio, Jackson

Our midfield: Moloney, Mckenzie, Magner, Bail, J. Tren.

Thats damning

Shazza turncoats to the Demons?

I've tipped a win this week. Unless a further destabilising event occurs this week, I'm sticking to it.

Yeah , it's better than even money that something will happen . Was thinking of starting a thread along those lines . Maybe we could all share a laugh thinking of some new ridiculous happening .

I'll have a go .

New revelations reveal that Mark Neeld has been leaving the "Match Day" coaching to Brian Royal . Mark , when quizzed on why this happened said "He's been knocked back for so many head coaching jobs , I thought I'd let him have a taste of the big time".

Brian Royal was unavailable for any comment . Sources close to the club reveal that Brian is happy to go back to coaching the midfield .

Cheers

I still think we can beat the tigers. If chippa beats riewoldt and someone else in our forward line (Does anyone else play in our forward line?) fires with clark we have a sniff. We need to tag more aswell. Neeld should know by now we are not collingwood so tag away.

Richmond will win by around 40 points, you can bank on it.

This. We cannot beat Richmond. We need to come to terms with the reality that we might give GWS a contest this year, but nobody else.

Richmond will win by at least 10 goals. Our team plan and implementation is abysmal. The players have no confidence at all in their own ability to win games or even to beat individual opponents.

The two players that usually fire up against Richmond are out. Sylvia saves his best game for the year for the Tigers and Jurrah usually gets a couple of goals. With both these guys out we will lose by 5-7 goals.

I'm tipping Richmond will better us by at least 2-3 goals a quarter, so my line is 48 points, and that is me being optimistic. Their midfield is too good for us, they also put in proper effort at periods during every quarter, where as we only do for maybe a little bit of the first half.

Going to be another ugly one unfortunately.

    GOLDIE'S METTLE by Meggs

    On a perfect night for football at the home of the Redlegs, Norwood Oval, it was the visiting underdogs Melbourne who led all night and hung on to prevail in a 2-point nail-biter. In the previous round St Kilda had made it a tough physical game to help restrict Adelaide from scoring and so Mick Stinear set a similar strategy for his team. To win it would require every player to do their bit on the field plus a little bit of luck.  Fifty game milestoner Sinead Goldrick epitomised

    REDLEG PRIDE by Meggs

    Hump day mid-week footy at the Redlegs home ground is a great opportunity to build on our recent improved competitiveness playing in the red and blue.   The jumper has a few other colours this week with the rainbow Pride flag flying this round to celebrate people from all walks of life coming together, being accepted. AFLW has been a benchmark when it comes to inclusivity and a safe workplace.  The team will run out in a specially designed guernsey for this game and also the following week

    REDEEMING by Meggs

    It was such a balmy spring evening for this mid-week BNCA Pink Lady match at our favourite venue Ikon Park between two teams that had not won a game since round one.   After last week’s insipid bombing, the DeeArmy banner correctly deemanded that our players ‘go in hard, go in strong, go in fighting’, and girl they sure did!   The first quarter goals by Alyssa Bannan and Alyssia Pisano were simply stunning, and it was 4 goals to nil by half-time.   Kudos to Mick Stinear.

    REDEEM by Meggs

    How will Mick Stinear and his dwindling list of fit and available Demons respond to last week’s 65-point capitulation to the Bombers, the team’s biggest loss in history?   As a minimum he will expect genuine effort from all of his players when Melbourne takes on the GWS Giants at Ikon Park this Thursday.  Happily, the ground remains a favourite Melbourne venue of players and spectators alike and will provide an opportunity for the Demons to redeem themselves. Injuries to star play
