Richmond is [censored].  They have beaten rubbish teams in Carlton, Collingwood, Brisbane and West Coast on a wet day in Melb.  Dees are not in bad form, they just had a bad qtr against Freo.  We were by far the better side against Geelong and had Gawn not gone down we win. 

The Hulk comes in and we win!!!

The Tiges have had 4 good wins. We have one good win and a poor win. We have not been too bad that's true but far from impressive and not confidence building performances.  However, we will have to make the most of our opportunities up forward and our midfield will have to play its a......   off.

Just on 7 news.

Martin with a groin injury concern. should get up but wont be 100% fit.

Hibberd right in the frame to get selected on Monday.

That has to be a massive win for us. Even if Martin plays, I can't see him pulling off another 40 possession 3 goal game on a crook groin.

Hogan and Hibberd look like great ins on paper.

Please let some injury news go our way and Dusty miss :rolleyes:

I hope they pick him, he then totally ruins the groin in the first 5 mins and is out for the rest of the game (10 weeks out total) and it starts the downward spiral of the Tigs season.

Oscar and JKH will play i reckon along with Hogan.. i dont expect to see Pedo in the team..

What TF does anyone see in Oscar M? Slow, He was outbodied last weekend by Ayce Cordy and just isn't up to it!

Oh, I get it he will play on Jack Riewoldt for entertainment factor!

Cheez get real people!

Pedo must come in IMO

Our best beats Richmond.

We're better.

We win.

Don't rate them.

At all.

I think you should blame Hogan and Lewis. If those two think that it's the Carlton doctor and the MRP process which is the problem, they will have learned nothing and we'll have the same problem repeating itself.

Stupid actions I concede but the penalties were completely disproportionate to what they did, especially having regard to similar, if not worse, acts by other players this year that have barely attracted any sanction at all.

It's cost us at least one win thus far.

A remarkable neck out statement filled with the insight of a seagull stricken on a barren landscape.

Insightful Pro. Well done.

I agree, they have beaten carlton, Brisbane, and Collingwood and fallen over the line against a wasteful west coast. far from convinced they can do it against better opposition

Richmond more than any other team rides on confidence and emotion. If they get on top early will be hard to reel them back in.


Not so much this As previous years . How about we call time on  making excuses. We'll lose if we're not good enough Gonzo.

Surprised people are giving Hibberd another week. From what I saw of the game today his kicking off half back was great. Unless we'd like to handball in circles inviting the opposition to take it off us and kick goals for another week, he comes in.

Misson didnt say it, but you could tell he was thinking that Hibberd needed another week in the 2s

Would love us to actually make a fast start (5+ goals in the first quarter). Hogan, Ped and Hib sound like good ins to me :) #godees!

I've seen every second of Richmond this season and haven't liked much of what I've seen. I said North were the worst 9-0 team ever last year, Richmond are a much worse 4-0 team. 

Nankervis has made them their biggest improvement, as their rucks have been shot (semi typo) for years. Spencer is good enough to break even going on his form so far this year. 

Their stars are playing well, the same ones that go missing when the spotlight is on. They don't worry me. 

They're playing as well as they can and it's not impressive. 

If we lose to them I'm going to be furious. 

Personally wouldn't mind seeing petracca go head to head with Martin. Trac is strong enough to go with him, especially in the air one on one and is good enough to hurt him going the other way too.

Who is making excuses?

Would love Martin to play but does Jack all because of the injury. Happy for him to be right the week after as I don't like serious injuries. 

For me

out: Weids milkshake and Hannan

in: hogan Hibberd(if fit) and pedo

Martin out would be huge for us.

i hope there's truth to it.

I hope he's fit and plays...

We are beyond needing oppo injuries to get a win.

I totally get your point as it's a bit of a loser's mentality having to rely on the opposition's guns to be injured in order to win a game.

However, Geelong and Freo have directly benefited from our stars being out, so I feel we're due a little luck going the other way.

Definitely a more circumspect opinion BB. 

I'm trying to work out whether Hemingway is attempting a pun here. If he is, I'm afraid it doesn't cut it.

Go and read the Richmond bigfooty page

My god they are cocky [censored] after 4 wins

Gross, just went and had a peep. Shallow end of the gene pool right there.

 

Hope their Microwaves are in good nick ;)

Jack Watts specifically mentioned JKH on SEN this morning.  Goodwin's pre-season player review of him in Heartbeat was glowing.  Will not surprise to see him in.

  • REPORT: Fremantle

    For this year’s Easter Saturday game at the MCG, Simon Goodwin and his Demons wound the clock back a few years to wipe out the horrible memories of last season’s twin thrashings at the hands of the Dockers. And it was about time! Melbourne’s indomitable skipper Max Gawn put in a mammoth performance in shutting out his immediate opponent Sean Darcy in the ruck and around the ground and was a colossus at the end when the game was there to be won or lost. It was won by 16.11.107 to 14.13.97. There was the battery-charged Easter Bunny in Kysaiah Pickett running anyone wearing purple ragged, whether at midfield stoppages or around the big sticks. He finish with a five goal haul.

  • CASEY: UWS Giants

    The Casey Demons took on an undefeated UWS Giants outfit at their own home ground on a beautiful autumn day but found themselves completely out of their depth going down by 53 points against a well-drilled and fair superior combination. Despite having 15 AFL listed players at their disposal - far more than in their earlier matches this season - the Demons were never really in the game and suffered their second defeat in a row after their bright start to the season when they drew with the Kangaroos, beat the Suns and matched the Cats for most of the day on their own dung heap at Corio Bay. The Giants were a different proposition altogether. They had a very slight wind advantage in the opening quarter but were too quick off the mark for the Demons, tearing the game apart by the half way mark of the term when they kicked the first five goals with clean and direct football.

    A undermanned Dees showed some heart and desperation to put the Fremantle Dockers to the sword as they claimed their first victory for the season winning by 10 points at the MCG.
