And I am hoping it will be in two weeks time.

    He was off the boil against the Cats no doubt.  But he got involved in heaps of plays.  I know he has the ability to convert those opportunities.  I feel he's on the verge of explosion.

    Which would be at odds with everything he said in this article haha 

    Wouldn't complain if he ripped the game apart on his own having said that!

    Even though language gets vulgar sometimes on DL, I do try to keep it G rated when possible :) I had to get that post out quick so that was all I had in the bag ?

    That should read a 'Trapper Johnstone like half' Diamond Jim. Have never seen a more influential half played by a footballer than the 2nd & 3rd quarters he played against the Crows in the SF back in '02.

    Admittedly though, that game should've been played at AAMI Stadium given the Crows lost the QF and we won the EF.

    Just needs to take his time I think.  Rushes it sometimes.

    • POSTGAME: Richmond

      After five consecutive defeats, the Demons have now notched up back-to-back victories, comfortably accounting for the Tigers in the traditional ANZAC Eve clash. They surged to a commanding 44-point lead early in the final quarter before easing off the pedal, resting skipper Max Gawn and conceding the last four goals of the game to close out a solid 20-point win.

    • GAMEDAY: Richmond

      It's Game Day and the Demons return to the MCG to face the Tigers in their annual Blockbuster on ANZAC Eve for the 10th time. The Dees will be desperate to reignite their stuttering 2025 campaign and claim just their second win of the season. Can the Demons dig deep and find that ANZAC Spirit to snatch back to back wins?

    • PREVIEW: Richmond

      A few years ago, the Melbourne Football Club produced a documentary about the decade in which it rose from its dystopic purgatory of regular thrashings to the euphoria of a premiership victory. That entire period could have been compressed in a fast motion version of the 2025 season to date as the Demons went from embarrassing basket case to glorious winner in an unexpected victory over the Dockers last Saturday. They transformed in a single week from a team that put in a pedestrian effort of predictably kicking the ball long down the line into attack that made a very ordinary Bombers outfit look like worldbeaters into a slick, fast moving side with urgency and a willingness to handball and create play with shorter kicks and by changing angles to generate an element of chaos that yielded six goals in each of the opening quarters against Freo.
