Relax, we've got this...

We need to make this the Demonland slogan. Seriously.

 

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

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
 

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.

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.

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


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

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

Poor form

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

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

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."


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.

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

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.

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....

  • NON-MFC: 2026 Opening Round

    Finally the 2026 AFL Premiership Season is upon us. While Melbourne sits out Opening Round, there is still plenty of footy to enjoy with five non-MFC clashes to kick off the new season. It all begins on Thursday night with a blockbuster at the SCG as Sydney hosts Carlton in what should be a strong early test for both sides. On Friday night, Gold Coast gets its chance to open the season in front of a home crowd when the Suns and Christian Petracca take on Geelong at People First Stadium. Saturday features a double-header, starting in the afternoon with Greater Western Sydney and Clayton Oliver meeting the Hawks at Engie Stadium. That is followed on Saturday night by Brisbane Lions hosting the Western Bulldogs at the Gabba, with the Lions embarking on their campaign to win the Threepeat. Opening Round wraps up on Sunday night at the MCG, where St Kilda takes on Collingwood in the only game in town in the first week of the season. There is no shortage of storylines across the round, so discuss all the action from the non-MFC games of Opening Round.

  • PREGAME: St. Kilda

    With just over two weeks until their opening match of the 2026 AFL Premiership season, the Demons are already well on the path to redemption and have the Saints firmly in their sights ahead of their mid-March clash at the MCG. What do you think the team will look like when they run out on to the G?

  • REPORT: Richmond

    Mars is not usually a place known for lighting strikes but on Friday evening it happened twice in the vicinity of the stadium in Ballarat that carries the name and is a half completed building site with limited capacity for spectators.

  • POSTGAME: Richmond

    The Dees ran another clinic for the second week in a row as they easily accounted for the Tigers in the lightning interrupted shortened match at Mars Stadium in Ballarat.

  • GAMEDAY: Richmond

    It's Game Day and the 2026 AFL Premiership season is almost upon us as the Demons take to the field for their final practice match before the first ball is kicked in anger in 16 days time. What are you expecting to see from the Dees today as they take on the Tigers at Mars Stadium in Ballarat?
