Can I just ask if our Alice Springs game v lions is a home game for us?

Also given how covid has stopped so many in melb last year seeing live footy...why play up there ?

Yes it is and we play well there. I don't think the Lions have played there very often so I reckon that gives us an advantage.

Martin caught twice tonight when attempting the fend off. Could this be signs of the beginning of the end for the Dusty and Richmond dynasty?

was thinking the very same thing. the explosive power not quite there for him tonight.

Mathieson....... no integrity, no honesty, just a disgusting fraud and a cheat. What must it feel like to be as low a human being as that cheat ??

Mathieson needs to be added to the list of punchable heads. ?

I'm pretty sure he's been high on the list ever since he was first seen at AFL level

Dusty looking for a contested touch, tagging the goal umpire

I know the umpiring has been one sided, but I can’t recall a coach whining about it at half time like Hardwick, what a little [censored]

Reckon Brisbane players have worked out how to tackle him. Don’t go for the waist but raise both arms and come down on him from above.

Im sure it is and we are financially compensated for it.

I would be keen if mods could do a survey on if this is a good idea.

Especially after Goody wants it to be fortress Mcg. Its contrary to this view.

Also its not like a trip to Sydney or Canberra. Its a fair distance.

Given we play eight away games including kardinia but not the ones at marvel( whick is the mist for vic clubs)... im wondering if we just forgo the $ or whatever and keep our eyes on the ultimate prize...a flag.

Oh no a 2 hour flight. Toughen up princess, the game in Alice is brilliant 

Marlon Picket throws it out of a pack at every opportunity.

Castagna gets clearly tackled high.

BT: “Rioli wrapped up in a good tackle!”

Deever, you really do have to look at a map. As the crow flies it's not much different to flying to Brisbane.

Love seeing Mathieson give the Tigers a taste of their own medicine  lol

Wonder why Riewoldt didn’t wander down and have a chat to that stain Mathieson.

Must of missed it,  what did he do?

Kicked a goal then mimed ripping the shirt open like superman and stuck the forehead and his massive underbite into Baker. 

Friggin maggots not a clue about playing footy - no way was that a deliberate OOB - the guy was pulled out of balance as he kicked it. 

Probably a stupid question but what are the AFL instructing the umpires to do? 3 tackles in the lead up to that Brisbane goal were stone cold holding the ball/incorrect disposal! If you have prior opportunity and incorrectly dispose of it, it doesn't matter if you make an attempt!

If the umpires are being instructed to do this, it's a disgrace. If they aren't, then the umpires are disgracefully enforcing (or not enforcing) the rules of the game. 

Brisbane are an ugly team that are going to be hard to beat.

Tigers just aren’t that good this year...

 

... and they sook when they lose.

Commentators declare high shot is worth a fine. MRP take note (and it's Richmond $1k should do)

Well the thing about it was it was a double tap, he copped a hard (deliberate) forearm, and then he came through with the other hand across the face. I think it will end up being a fine, but it's typical dirty tactics from these thugs.

This is great.. now we need GWS, Freo and the Saints to start winning so one of them can boot the Tigers out of the 8.
