A few commentators were predicting a Richmond resurgence this year , Why?

 

Richmond look cooked. No power in the legs. Their younger players are all plodders. Cotchin is finished. Dusty not far behind. 
 

Carlton look good. They looked good against us in the practice game too. Strong midfield and potent attack. Decent backline. Voss is using the “selfless” mantra this year and they are playing a similar style to us. Will cause some damage to the 8. 

Always rated Vossy as a coach.  he was sacked to quickly thinking they could find a better option.

Finally clubs are realising experienced coaches are a good option, not just untried.  

I am happy for Carlton now, if they get good, it won;t last long

Only heard it from Caro, safe to say she is a little biased

Voss make the rookie mistake with his club at birdie thinking they 1 last run at it and topped up.  

He's a good coach and will be much better this timed we'll see consistent improvement in the blues this year.  They should make th e8 if they can sustain it..

Tigers, looking older and not able tout that pressure on for 4 qtrs.  need an injection of younger players to run out games.

I don’t feel well 

Have to say I have been scratching my head over the predictions that the Tiges were going to bounce this season. I just could not work out where that was coming from. after watching a bit of that game I just cannot see them making the 8. Too old....Too slow.... To predictable.

I was going to refer to a Dead Cat Bounce but might save that for the [censored].....

Blues are looing to improve and on that showing have gained on the field, will need to step up a few more to really challenge..... a couple more seasons for them to hit their straps.

 

The Human race has evolved so far, but there must be higher intelligence out there somewhere. This cannot be it….

I predicted Carlton to be the big improver. Top 4 in fact. Richmond are finished I'm like many bewildered at why Richmond was supposed to improve.

Followed the game on delay and via 'land only ... excellent work peoples and highly amusing

I remember a time not so long ago when we weren't much chop and therefore the other games were often rarely commented on

But now that we're the Reigning Premiers (with a terrific win to start the season) the mood is way different.  We're looking for the challengers instead of vice-versa

[censored] me, I thought Carlton were a chance and tied them into a decent multi.

Early signs suggest they are [censored].

Well....that didn't age well 🤣

Let’s see how Carlton go when they aren’t gifted 4 goals every week from the umpires.

But maybe they will (except when they play Footscray of course)


Only 72,000 at the "traditional season opener"? Will there be head shaking over this crowd size, too?

Tigers' fuel last year was belief and they nearly made the 8 based on that. Doubts must have set in now. How many losses before the belief evaporates and they plunge down the ladder?

I know it’s extremely early days but we host Carlton in round 22.

Ding-dong battle between Oscar and Tom in the vein of Carey/Jakovich, Lockett/Silvagni, Flower/Greig or Hart/Knights. Should crack 90,000.

 

Whenever I’m feeling down & need a laugh I know I can always go back & watch this biased peanut give us one of her delusional takes 😆

Oscar did well.  Good on him .... seems like a nice guy. I hope he has a good season*.

 

*excluding the match/es against MFC.

.I marginally wanted Richmond to win but not by much. If they deep sixed Carlton, we never would have heard the end of talk about how ‘OMG! Richmond are back!!!’

Please excuse my ignorance, but what does this mean, to ‘deep six’ a team?

Seeing Hardwicks reaction to the loss in the coaches box after the game said it all for me, he looked at a loss and a bit of resignation that they might have stuffed this all up.... I loved it!!!!

deep-six
 
verb
INFORMALNORTH AMERICAN
  1. destroy or dispose of (something) irretrievably.
    "someone had deliberately deep-sixed evidence"
 

Morning cup of tea and Richmond BigFooty page after a loss.  Two of my favourite things.

  • REPORT: Western Bulldogs

    The next coach of the Melbourne Football Club faces the challenge of teaching his players how to win games against all comers. At times during this tumultuous season, that task has seemed daunting, made more so in light of the surprise news last week of the sacking of premiership coach Simon Goodwin. However, there were also some positive signs from yesterday’s match against the Western Bulldogs that the challenge may not be as difficult as one might think. The two sides presented a genuine football spectacle, featuring pulsating competitive play with eight lead changes throughout the afternoon, in a display befitting a finals match.The result could have gone either way and in the end, it came down to which team could produce the most desperate of acts to provide a winning result. It was the Bulldogs who had their season on the line that won out by a six point margin that fitted the game and the effort of both sides.

  • CASEY: Brisbane

    The rain had been falling heavily in south east Queensland when the match began at Springfield, west of Brisbane. The teams exchanged early goals and then the Casey Demons proceeded like a house on fire in the penultimate game of the VFL season against a strong opponent in the Brisbane Lions. Sparked by strong play around the ground by seasoned players in Charlie Spargo and Jack Billings, a strong effort from Bailey Laurie and promising work from youngsters in Kynan Brown and  Koltyn Tholstrup, the Demons with multiple goal kickers firing, raced to a 27 point lead late in the opening stanza. A highlight was a wonderful goal from Laurie who brilliantly sidestepped two opponents and kicked beautifully from 45 metres out.

    The Demons lacked some polish but showed a lot of heart and took it right up to the Bulldogs in an attempt to spoil their finals hopes ultimately going down by a goal at the MCG.
