AFL Round 16 - Non MFC Games 2017

[Lucifers Hero 40,489]

Richmond are so lazy tonight and making StK look good:

Contested possessions: STK 84 and Rich 55.

Clearances: StK 23, Rich 9.

Inside 50: STK 43, Rich 14

Rich thrashed in the midfield and Saints are walking it into the fwd line or forwards are taking uncontested marks. 

Saints playing on adrenaline. They aren't that good.  But then neither are Richmond.

82pts at half time.....can they break 186? Saints % is now relevant.

[Dee Zephyr 19,269]

Lol, Saints have picked up 14% and are currently on top of Richmond.

Such a crazy season!

Agree re us earning our own way.

Disagree on the Swans - beating Cold Toast, no big feat, and us severely under manned.

Swans have now won eight straight ... no other team is anywhere near that at present

[Deestroy All 14,266]

Never liked StKilda. Until that hour just then. Thank you. More please.

Not sure about that, they lost to Hawthorn about a month ago or so.

You won't be so thankful when they take our place in the 8.

What I love most is that Hardwick always does his best to change the lighting of his coaches box so TV cameras cant see him. It always amuses me. I like it better than Clarko covering his mouth to swear.

Damo also has been poking himself in the eye a few times when he can bear to look.

Yeah but you cant help loving Richmond get flogged

[picket fence 17,753]

Lovin this I have a [censored] head brother in law who really got into me when Richtank beat us with compromised Bench! 

Suck a Bag Richmond u arrogant Tossers!

 

[SaberFang 7,151]

I do love seeing Richmond losing right after getting ahead of themselves, but... geez. Just makes tomorrow that much more terrifying. The stakes this season are massive, every single week.

Maybe the ultimate, final ironic twist of season 2017 is the Tigers finishing 9th after all?

Gold Coast - big deal

Melbourne - wounded and weary

Dons - by a point after siren

Tigers - by 9

Doggies - by 44 (Dogs a shadow of 2016)

That's their glorious run... good draw and some luck.

More dangerous than anything last week, could have been way worse

[dees189227 12,441]

Wow I know the saints winning isnt good for us but that was a phenomenal 1st half of footy and I enjoyed it. I loved there relentless pressure on Richmond. Dusty has been well held. 1 goal to half time. When have we seen a dominance like that this season. 

Im sorry but Rance isnt the nice golden boy everyone thinks he is. He gave away a dumb 50 in the 1st term and an undisciplined free kick where he fended off. I have always maintained get him 1 on 1 and he struggles. Riewoldt has been running him around everywhere tonight and at one stage he didnt go with him and Dusty picked him up. Riewoldt has taken the 9 marks. 

I hope stkilda keep this going and dont take there foot off the gas. 

How many tigs fans have just left etihad?

It does indeed mate, looking ominous the Swans.

Also true...

[SaberFang 7,151]

On that note, that's a luxurious 4 week run of teams for a team that played in last year's Grand Final. All 4 teams finished 11th or lower last year.

Gotta love the AFL's completely unbiased fixturing!

That'd be our fault not theirs. 

[dl4e 5,851]

I am loving seeing Richmond getting thrashed. They are subhuman.

Thought the same thing, he should have been taken off. 

Has he taken a mark in thin air yet, Vickery style?

[SaberFang 7,151]

Oh, Saints now 4th on the ladder.
