Boy that's a bit negative even for this forum.

It’s a massive IF mate. And I’m  not expecting it to happen.

Just pointing out that GWS are carrying some brilliant form and could very well beat Sydney in week 1.

Meanwhile we’ll be playing a high quality side in week 1.

We’re so playing GWS in the semis if things go south in week 1 finals.

GWS with this win will likely finish 7th.

That means they likely play Sydney in the first final (Brisbane would have to lose to Collingwood or West Coast for Sydney to pass them), and then the winner gets the loser of 2 v 3.

So if we win both games and finish 1st, we'll avoid that semi.

All things being equal I’ve got us beating Adelaide and losing to Geelong - hence finishing 3rd and getting on GWS’s side of the draw in week 2, in the event we lose week 1.

Channel 7 going on and on about Richmond's inexperience:

Richmond are hopeless, but I reckon GWS could win it this year. For the simple reason being I think they could beat us.

Tell em they're dreaming.

We arn't going to fall for that [censored] again.

Plus, it will be like 2018 in reverse.  They are hitting a purple patch right now, but are having to throw everything they have at it just to make it and I'm tipping they will fall in a heap sooner or later.

 listening to BT and Richo commentate when Richmond are playing is like listening to NSW commentators when Storm play

[Rodney (Balls) Grinter 10,768]

Here goes Lynch getting himself into the game.

...poster.  Dam shame that.

Have been told that Hardwick has pretty much lost the players after his off field activities. Be interesting to see how long he lasts now they aren’t winning all the time. 

If that's the case he and Clarko would be a pretty good combo to get back together.

But from all reports Buckley had lost the players years ago and they persisted with him. Dimma has premierships and Richmond have a bad history of sacking coaches. I doubt he will be going anywhere.

They still haven't made the finals yet, either.

They need to win next week, otherwise they run the risk of Essendon passing them with two wins (could theoretically also be passed by St Kilda or Fremantle but they're far less likely to win both games).

First team to 100 wins. Isn't that what they say ???

 

[Damo 3,327]

I took it to mean 1st 100 pt win this year for GWS

The Richmond fawning in the commentary box is disgusting.

Noticeably though, Daisy doesn't get involved in it. It's all BT, Brayshaw and Leppa.

[Rodney (Balls) Grinter 10,768]

This is soo un Richmond like.

I like Leppa. His Richmond bias saddens me.

[titan_uranus 24,963]

Jack Riewoldt just 3 touches.

"Look out if you're playing us" lol.

[binman 42,467]

Could not believe the tigers were favourite with bookies for this game.

So I backed them to win ay 2.20.

And to win by more than 39 at 14

Fawning over Dusty now.

If Richmond struggle again next year, Dusty will get found out and just look like a hungry selfish has-been.

Please oh please.

May that magnificent bastard Mario from Doncaster make a comeback. 🙏🏻🙇‍♂️

These commentators must be getting paid per word. Take a breath ffs

BT querying as to why Dustin Martin has to  do 14 days quarantine in Melbourne when he’s just came out of a QLD hospital…

Umm, pretty sure he’s been out of hospital since late July.
