Kinda want a Richmond win to knock freemantle down a spot. Useless gold coast.

 

Edit: also Papley

Richmond a genuine shot at this.

Yup. Sydney are nowhere near their skill level by foot or hardness around the ball thus far this year. I think they have quite a few players out of form as they’ve lost their ruthlessness or something? They should be a much better team than Richmond.

We're really getting robbed of having a decent crowd at our game by virtue of it being a double header and the Port fans most likely not being there for the majority of our game.

Really can't see the swans losing this unfortunately

Yeah, the crowds at the two double-header’s are going to be very interesting.  Looking forward to hear from those at the ground what it’s like because I don’t think the broadcasters will be very honest with the crowd size, especially during the first half of our game.

Total garbage

Now that you say that, Because Freo and Suns played at a capacity of less than 10,000, would they get any compensation from the AFL considering they don’t have the ability to pull 20,000+ at a larger ground?

Someone's gonna win tonight 

[Dee Zephyr 19,268]

What I think people are missing  is the fact that this round doesn’t dig into a Port home game. The AFL has said that all tickets to the double header tomorrow have been sold.
If the majority of sales have gone to Port fans then yes, we could be playing in a not so filled stadium until Port fans arrive.

I’m guessing each teams’ supporters had an even chance of getting tickets. I’m hoping to see at least a half full stadium for our game from the start.

Were membership numbers required to purchase tickets?

The Paps!

Tigers will win from here...

[BoBo 2,941]

Weirdly, Papley is keeping Sydney in the game even though they’re winning

Could be up for a thundercracker of an ending.

[DubDee 26,117]

Turns out Sydney are pretty [censored]

Tigers arent even finals quality and are missing a few of their best

Melbourne members got an email with a barcode back in December from memory about grabbing free tickets for Gather Round Viper. After that offer I’m not sure mate.

Agreed. I'm always conflicted when it comes to Papley. I have a soft spot as I saw him play half a dozen games with Casey as the 23rd man top up in his draft year. And he's obviously a really good player.

But he's also a complete goal hungry team mate who burns the others and he carries on like a total fl*g!
