What was our half time score in 186?

If Richmond pull their fingers out one of our shameful records could be lost.

[In Harmes Way 7,541]

20 goals 4 to 1 goal 4 mono. As much as I like where you were going, I can’t see this game getting there.

How the [censored] did we not lose to Richmond by 120 points? Am I doing it right?

[dl4e 5,593]

Another. Friday night special.

I just landed in Manila with Monsoon rains and 80 kp/h winds. 

I am celebrating tonight. That was the roughest landing i have ever had. 

To the Pilot, you are a deadset legend!!

drinks....

OMG the Friday scheduling has hit rock bottom, thanks Gil.

There was a time that I hardly missed a Friday night game on TV: this year hardly ever.

Tonight watched a bit of the second quarter then totally lost interest.

What a farce.

Oh it was mate, right on the edge. 

Jamieson’s on the rocks are going down very nicely

[Constant Mongrel 571]

just watching the 3rd quarter and billings has taken a mark & then mucked up the gimme set shot.. bruce says 'quiet first half from jack', or something to that effect. more like, 'quiet first half of your career jack'. so stoked we didn't take him.

also, i gotta say, trent cotchin is such a great player these days. so physical and tough in the contest. if there's a loose ball to be won, he generally wins it. such an improvement from the level he played at for years when richmond just couldn't get above 9th. impressive.

Show me a Richmond player that isn't.

I remember walking away from our round 13 game last year when we beat the reigning premier by nearly 10 goals. Our players were 'manic' in their endeavour. I couldn't comprehend why they weren't able to bring the same desire week in, week out.

Dimma has got his team doing just that.

true.. but, if the ball was on the ground and there were a handful of tigers jumpers around, cotchin is getting that ball. almost plays like viney when he is playing at his optimum. just brutal.

re: the 2016 against the bulldogs. i think there was blood in the water at that stage wasn't there? i dare say our young kids knew and attempted to beat them up, having been beaten to a pulp many times by them over the years.. but yes, it's frustrating. i think we can it these days much better over a game, but just not PEAK PRESSURE. not sure why. maybe today? ?

Must say, that Jack Steven goal was a ripper and will take some beating for GOTY

We lost two in form players in Nathan Jones and Jack Watts for several weeks from injuries incurred during that game and lost more in the ensuing weeks. This was also during that period when we had 4 successive 6-day breaks and we eventually just ran out of steam. 

This time around, there are no excuses.

I remember landing there about 5 years ago and thaught the plane was going to skid off the runway. It was scary. Mid arvo with no wind.

Just quickly

Daughter and I watched TV one sat Arvo. World's most dangerous ...etc. #1 Lukla

We joked...you'd be fun mad ...

6 months later we were off on a Nepalese adventure. Before going as checking itenary...I noticed something.

Popped it up on laptop ...I was laughing quite heartedly by now...

When asked...I turned screen around....some jaws dropped

What a dilemna. I hate the filth so much. I hate Norf too, but not as much.

It's probably preferable that Collingwood win to increase our chances of making the 8. But hoping the filth win? Probably a bridge too far !!
