I'm actually an idiot and after seeing the INs and OUTs changed my tip to Melbourne.

not sure how GA standing room is counted. I assume they monitor the non seating ticketed entrant numbers at the turnstiles.

Might be a good idea to arrive around an hour early and I would think you would be ok

You should be fine - just get there as early as possible. I went last year without reservation (GA) and snagged a seat on Level One Ponsford, just round from the goals. Otherwise get up to L4 Olympic, which will be reserved up to about halfway back. Good luck!

[Jaded No More 57,784]

Buy a reserved seat membership. Problem solved*

 

 

*Reserved seat membership does not come with a guarantee that we will be a better team or that you will feel less annoyed about our performances.

I'm sitting at 3 from 7 this round - a pretty familiar situation for other tipsters I've spoken to.

Tipped the Tigers but obviously hope I'm wrong.

It's going to be slippery.

Light showers at the ‘G as I write.

If we lose I’m guessing we lost it at selection? 

Someone will come on here and agree with you if you mean draft selections in 2009.

[Jibroni 4,037]

Hope the rain goes away. Let the Dons and Pies deal with it tomorrow.

The ground and ball will still be slippery, even if it stops raining.

I don't think much rain will hit the G looking at the radar.  The heavier stuff is south.

[DemonWheels 962]

If you've got a General Admission MFC membership and want a confirmed seat, call the club and ask to purchase a 'Guest Pass' for the 'Demons Seats'. You can sit anywhere within the M14 Bay on Level 1 Great Southern Stand once you have the pass and only costs $18 (on top of the cost of your GA membership or GA ticket). Bought one for my folks yesterday avo.

Note: sometimes people manage to sneak in and sit there as it's never even 25% full – so give that a go as well.

So we must play a high posession game then and handball backwards at all costs?

[Ethan Tremblay 28,358]

Richmond have beaten the two bottom of the ladder teams in Brisbane and Carlton and have beaten an up and down Hawthorn and lost to an injury depleted Adelaide. Grow some nuts, Melbourne by 64.

Yes Richmond have not been that good we always match up well

Champagne football.

[Copuchas 756]

Rosebury (8), Foot (2) and Williamson (22) tonight.   At least that bald clown Nicholls is not in attendance.  Rosebury is generally good.   Williamson is the worry IMHO.   Let's hope they aren't a factor.   Just want to see a competitive effort tonight and in all likelihood we win if we bring that.   Dees by 26.

[sisso 2,383]

We are so unpredictable we could win by 50 or lose by 80 and everything in between

The got the Hawks with a 5 day break after they played Geelong compared to their 9 day break. They are very gettable tonight. 

Does Melbourne come switches on and do they come to play for 4 quaters.
