Tigers were atrocious last night. Cotchin took some angry pills with cheap shots all over the field, Pickett was trying to take mark of the year in the backline knocking over his teammates in the process, Balta before his injury was trying to play dry weather football and Dusty looked like he wanted to be on a bean bag in front of the fire.

The Saints were just ok, nothing special but the Richmond performance stunk of arrogance.

Agree. Bad signs for tigers.

Injuries are the biggest, and most underrated, factor in football. The tigers 'system' can only mitigate having so many key players our for so long.

And the tigers depth is rubbish now, with players like Ellis and Higgins having left for coin and opportunity

    Hold on a minute.

    What's with this whole "injuries are hurting Richmond" thing?

    How many best 22 players was Richmond missing when they went into last night's game? By my count, three: Astbury, Lynch and Nankervis.

    Most clubs are missing that many or more (I know we're not, but that's not the point here).

    They just stank last night. There's no excuse for kicking 2 goals in an entire match. It's abysmal.

    Perversely though, I can see this performance sparking a renewed focus from them.

    Interesting to see Samson Ryan debut for the Tigers.

    Ryan was a project raw player who is as skinny as they come but at a good height at 206cm tall. He's gotten a game based on strong VFL form and also playing intra club games thr past few weeks

    Meanwhile we have Austin Bradke who's been on our list for 3 years and shown absolutely SFA and probably close to the worst player I've seen on our list since Brendan Van Shaik.

    How do you feel about this post now, @dazzledavey36, after Ryan became the first player in four years to fail to register a single possession on debut?

    I reckon park the Austin Bradtke hate.

    Richmond look like a tired side. It happens to all sides who have been up and about. So Richmond it is now time to say to thanks for the memories but you can now go and get stuffed. You owe us 54 years rent for denigrating the MCG as your home ground so pay up or pizz of to Punt Road.

    This by 100.

    That was big for Fremantle's finals chances. They have Carlton and Hawthorn as their next two, which could get them to 9-7.

    But they then have a five match stretch of Geelong, Sydney, Richmond, Brisbane and West Coast.

    Even if they win Round 23 vs St Kilda, with their relatively poor percentage they're going to have to go 3-2 through that run. Only Sydney is away from Perth though.

    Point is, they are going to be going hard against Geelong, Richmond, Brisbane and West Coast, and if they're a serious contender, that can only be good news for us.

    So disappointing to lose to Pies. They were always chasing in the Freo game. Just have to put Bombers away

    The Buckley situation plus Darcy Moore I think makes them a very different side this week compared to Queen's Birthday.

    If they can win their next 2 before that 5 game stretch and get some real confidence, it’ll be good if they can upset one of Geelong, Brisbane or West Coast as I think we have the toughest run home out of the top 4 sides.

    Watching the Port game, I’m getting the feeling that we are getting a preview of what we can expect in terms of umpiring decisions the week after next… not particularly good so far.

    I can't take Port seriously. Massive choke coming up by the looks of it.

    • REPORT: Collingwood

      The media focus on the fiery interaction between Max Gawn and Steven May at the end of the game was unfortunate because it took away the gloss from Melbourne’s performance in winning almost everywhere but on the scoreboard in its Kings Birthday clash with Collingwood at the MCG. It was a real battle reminiscent of the good old days when the rivalry between the two clubs was at its height and a fitting contest to celebrate the 2025 Australian of the Year, Neale Daniher and his superb work to bring the campaign to raise funds for motor neurone disease awareness to the forefront. Notwithstanding the fact that the Magpies snatched a one point victory from his old club, Daniher would be proud of the fact that his Demons fought tooth and nail to win the keenly contested game in front of 77,761 fans.

    • PREGAME: Port Adelaide

      The Demons are set to embark on a four-week road trip that takes them across the country, with two games in Adelaide and a clash on the Gold Coast, broken up by a mid-season bye. Next up is a meeting with the inconsistent Port Adelaide at Adelaide Oval. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Collingwood

      Despite effectively playing against four extra opponents, the Dees controlled much of the match. However, their inaccuracy in front of goal and inability to convert dominance in clearances and inside 50s ultimately cost them dearly, falling to a heartbreaking one-point loss on King’s Birthday.

    • GAMEDAY: Collingwood

      It's Game Day and the Demons face a monumental task as they take on the top-of-the-table Magpies in one of the biggest games on the Dees calendar: the King's Birthday Big Freeze MND match. Can the Demons defy the odds and claim a massive scalp to keep their finals hopes alive?
