Plus Melksham who missed most of last year. Fritsch who hasn't been able to play there consistently. AVB if he ever gets back on the park. Hannan after missing over a year.  Mind you none of them are KPF's. 

I'm pretty sure Richmond won a flag with just one KPF

Why are people saying he won’t play in Round 2?

The idea appears to be that he won’t be quite ready for the restart but without a VFL competition, that means another week or two of training. 

 I wonder however, if he continues to impress at training and the AFL allows two extra interchange players, whether he might be given a limited run against Carlton.

 

Gee it will tempt the selectors if he continues to "Dazzle" on the track and has no other setbacks ,but the AFL Decision to stick to four interchanges might scarper the inclination to play him first up!


The responsibility that comes with having a first child is life changing and in my opinion is the primary driver behind HB getting his [censored] together. 
 

Not a bad journey back from blowing coke, public drunkenness and blueing.

Quite refreshing to see someone turn their life around and get serious about things. Hope it continues and he can carve out 100 magnificent games for the Dees!

Hoping his dedication to getting serious about his football rubs off on a lot of the playing group.

Your forgetting he had two other blokes who weren't in Richmond jumpers playing there as well which were hard to man up...

 

I'm in the wait a while camp at this stage, only because of what HB will face if our forward line is not a cohesive unit that can create space, which he will need, and i would like to see initially if we are anywhere near there in the first half a dozen games.

Apparently, the extra interchange isn’t going to happen.

You must have a decent Thesaurus.   Mine is not only terrible, it's terrible.

What's another word for thesaurus?

Round 2 seems a bit early, during pre-season they were always aiming for mid-way through the season. 

Round 2 will be midway through a normal season.

glossary, language reference book, lexicon, onomasticon, reference book, sourcebook, storehouse of words, terminology, treasury of words, vocabulary, word list

Yep, that was my hilarious joke. 

FWIW, I think he’ll play round two.

Nope, they don't cut it. And many of them you may have noticed are more than 1 word.

To this day, no Thesaurus can handle 'Chicxulub'.

Or, ternary, triad, trichotomy, trilogy, trinity, trio, triplet, triumvirate, troika, triplication.

  • NON-MFC: 2026 Opening Round

    Finally the 2026 AFL Premiership Season is upon us. While Melbourne sits out Opening Round, there is still plenty of footy to enjoy with five non-MFC clashes to kick off the new season. It all begins on Thursday night with a blockbuster at the SCG as Sydney hosts Carlton in what should be a strong early test for both sides. On Friday night, Gold Coast gets its chance to open the season in front of a home crowd when the Suns and Christian Petracca take on Geelong at People First Stadium. Saturday features a double-header, starting in the afternoon with Greater Western Sydney and Clayton Oliver meeting the Hawks at Engie Stadium. That is followed on Saturday night by Brisbane Lions hosting the Western Bulldogs at the Gabba, with the Lions embarking on their campaign to win the Threepeat. Opening Round wraps up on Sunday night at the MCG, where St Kilda takes on Collingwood in the only game in town in the first week of the season. There is no shortage of storylines across the round, so discuss all the action from the non-MFC games of Opening Round.

  • PREGAME: St. Kilda

    With just over two weeks until their opening match of the 2026 AFL Premiership season, the Demons are already well on the path to redemption and have the Saints firmly in their sights ahead of their mid-March clash at the MCG. What do you think the team will look like when they run out on to the G?

  • REPORT: Richmond

    Mars is not usually a place known for lighting strikes but on Friday evening it happened twice in the vicinity of the stadium in Ballarat that carries the name and is a half completed building site with limited capacity for spectators.

    The Dees ran another clinic for the second week in a row as they easily accounted for the Tigers in the lightning interrupted shortened match at Mars Stadium in Ballarat.

  • GAMEDAY: Richmond

    It's Game Day and the 2026 AFL Premiership season is almost upon us as the Demons take to the field for their final practice match before the first ball is kicked in anger in 16 days time. What are you expecting to see from the Dees today as they take on the Tigers at Mars Stadium in Ballarat?
