Who else here thinks..

[P-man 13,366]

Relax, we've got this...

We need to make this the Demonland slogan. Seriously.

[Roost It 1,434]

65 points at 3/4 time which is when I leave

[GrandOld 367]

That vibe is just a psychological defence mechanism, sorry to break it to you. I feel illogically optimistic most weeks; I've learned to ignore it.

We are going to get reamed.

100% agree , balls deep

[Craig Drinker 179]

I think we will have a crack but will get over run in the end and go down by 35 pts. neeld will go on to coach next week.

[Ted Lasso 19,549]

Look i couldn't care less what the result is as long as at least half the players look like they want/deserve to be out there, the effort last week was a disgrace

If you are referring to the first quarter, then i agree.

[Wormburner 674]

who else here thinks that Melbourne will come out fired up against the Tigers and maybe [censored] a win.

I think that the players may come out with a burning red hot desire to crunch every single Richmond player at every opportunity. I just have this inkling feeling.

Or we will lose by 100..

But im getting a good vibe, im telling ya..

Go Dees! i will be there on sunday cheering as loud as i ever have

It's funny you say that, I've been getting stuck in to a couple Richmond supporters at work today saying they're gonna get done - you can imagine the offices response though.

I'm sticking to my guns, you're going down tiges...

the MFC would want to be packing lube, and lots of it.

Going to be mercyless

[Little Richard 6,265]

I can't begin to imagine the analogies when we play Hawthorn. Some serious latent sexual repression here

[Retrospective 104]

We will get smashed......but there will be some positives for the press conference.

We will have improved our "left handed handpass efficiency from uncontested possessions" or some such bulltish

I look back so fondly on the days we could go to the footy and watch the toiges supporters melt down and eat their own.......sadly passed

[jnrmac 20,207]

Poor form

Yeah right, Stay to the end blah blah blah.....

If the players don't give a stuff why should we??

[jabberwocky 2,301]

I thought they would be fired up for round 1, then round 2.

I have stopped expecting the unexpected.

Last week we had "attempted tackles". Maybe this week we will examine our "attempted running".

"We tried to run 287 times, but it only worked 164 times. You can't win games with that kind of differential."

[titan_uranus 25,058]

Here are the options:

• We come out and play football the likes of which we haven't seen us play in years. Just as we did against Essendon last year, we pull a blinder out of nowhere, it stuns Richmond, and we record a famous win.
• We come out and we play decent effort football, but, similarly to the Carlton game two weeks ago, we just aren't good enough. Tigers win by 30-50 points simply because they're better than us, but positives do come out of the game
• We come out and we play absolute rubbish. Similarly to last week, we're flat, lazy, disinterested, insipid, and embarrassing. Richmond by 60 at half time and 100 by the end.

Take your pick of which one.

[At Least I Saw a Flag 5,304]

No hope. However the pathetic efforts this season certainly present the team with plenty of "improvement opportunities" (to use corporate speak).

[optimus_grimes 4]

Dees by 13 points. Matt jones BOG and Howe to kick 5. Carn boys

Lock in c thanks Ed.

Because it's our club mate. The players might be lucky to be there for 5 years, while we are supporting it for our whole lives. Without us the club would die.

If that's your attitude, I'd rather you don't attend at all.

I would suggest that if any movie scene could be compared to Sunday's game, it would be this one.

Ironically enough, these blokes are pretty representative of the Richmond Grog Squad.

[titan_uranus 25,058]

We have to have hope.

Brisbane's about to just beat Essendon.

You read that correctly.

Well said, it's our club.

Wonder how many of the players actually barrack for the Dees....
