Don't understand the positivity re: wet weather. Despite our 'chaos' ball style, we are shocking in the wet, and Richmond have always been a good wet weather side.

We're more likely to not score a goal than win.

Yep - no room for positivity in any shape or form in this site

    I'm all for positivity Spalding, just not when it's being positive about an obvious weakness for us.

    Just watch Bachar Houli run and rebound out of defence time and time again without an opponent!

    That's an easy fix. Just cork his left leg. That will nullify his influence.

    Bloke wouldn't know his right foot from his @$$h0!e

    someone please tell me where our goals are going to come from? 

    this side on paper is an absolute worry....

    Also still amazed that AVB is getting a game - he has to perform today or do something that impacts the team 

    I'm putting the targets on AVB and Melk today, big game for these two 

    You're a real clueless supporter MF-C. It's obvious Mate. Tomlinson will dominate on a wing and slot 3 on the run from 55 out. Max is brilliant when he drifts forward and deadly from 35 metres out. There's another 2. You clearly haven't taken any notice of Hannan's form. 3 more goals there. Viney's long leg after he bursts out of the centre . . . kicking it 55 metres over the cluster. Pencil in anther 2 goals from him.  Tommy's virtually been unstoppable over the last 18 months. So there's another 5 in the bag. So far I'm up to 15 goals without trying. Seriously Bro, what's your problem???

    So I can put this out there prior to the game starting, I reckon they've picked the right side today. I watched Colliwobble talls struggle in the wet on Friday night (how bad was Cox), and I think we have enough height in TmAC, Gawn, Tomlinson, Oliver up front. It's gunna be scrappy, but we seem to like it better that way. 

    The omission of Jackson and Bennell isn't so stupid, Not great conditions for Jackson, and in wet heavy slog, not good for Bennell's calves (remember he is a longer project than just this year)

    So it's a half full glass of something when they get up today.

    Jackson only played a half apparently, in the scratch match.

    I wonder IF they have planted him into the Gym, almost full time.?

    It may get there, but it's not exactly looking like 'wet slog' conditions so far. Not a lot of rain on the radar yet either.

    Are you suggesting a late change??

    Would be nice if we could play 4 quarters for once.

    First chance I've had to watch us live this year. Very nervous 

    Hoping that Brayshaw continues to find some form. His brother played a better for Freo today.

    Dees by 13. Hannan and Kossie to combine for 5 goals.

    They said on fox that teams seemed to have worked out how to beat Richmond. 
     

    That’s great to hear but I bet my left nut Goody will play our style whatever the hell that is and lose again just for something different. 


    Currently second last on the ladder ?

    Were told yesterday at 4pm tht they were leaving on a flight to SYD straight after the game. Their heads surely won’t be in this game.

    Why were they only told yesterday when we knew for a couple of days that this was happening?


     

    Our midfielder already showing what a shambles they are.

    Viney is rubbish

    • PREGAME: Brisbane

      The Demons head back out on the road in Round 10 when they travel to Queensland to take on the reigning Premiers and the top of the table Lions who look very formidable. Can the Dees cause a massive upset? Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Hawthorn

      Wayward kicking for goal, dump kicks inside 50 and some baffling umpiring all contributed to the Dees not getting out to an an early lead that may have impacted the result. At the end of the day the Demons were just not good enough and let the Hawks run away with their first win against the Demons in 7 years.

      It’s game day and the Demons are chasing a fourth straight win as we take on the high flying Hawks at the G. After decades of being tormented by the Hawks the Dees will be keen to extend their 7 year dominance over Hawthorn.

    • NON-MFC: Round 09

      Round 9 kicks off out west with the Dockers hosting a Collingwood side resting several stars. Fremantle need to make a statement on their home deck after some disappointing form on the road, while the Magpies will be keen to maintain their Top 2 position. Friday night sees a must-win clash between two sides desperate to stay in touch with the eight. St Kilda have shown glimpses while Carlton are clinging to relevance after a flat start to the season. Saturday’s twilight game at Marvel pits the Bombers against a struggling Sydney outfit. Essendon can’t afford another close match against a lower-ranked side, while the Swans risk sliding down the ladder even further. Up in Darwin, the fourth-placed Suns will look to extend their stay in the top four. The Bulldogs have hit their stride with three big wins on the trot and will be very keen to consolidate on their momentum. The always fiery Showdown looms as pivotal for both clubs. Adelaide are eyeing a spot in the Top 4 with a win, while Port Adelaide’s season could slip away if they drop another game and fall further behind the pack. Sunday begins with a yawn fest between Richmond and West Coast. The Tigers need to bank the points to stay clear of the bottom two, while the Eagles are still chasing their first win of the year. The Giants face one of the league’s toughest road trips as they travel to GMHBA Stadium to face the Cats. With GWS at risk of a third straight loss, Geelong will be eager to consolidate their position inside the eight and start their climb up the ladder. The round wraps up with the top-of-the-table Lions heading to Ninja Stadium to take on the second-last Roos. The Lions should easily take care of the struggling Roos who might be powerless against the best in the comp. Who are you tipping and what are the best results for the Demons?
