Flip side of that is it gives them a bit of confidence before our game.
Also no way we take them lightly now considering Richmond gave us a good game last week. 

This — actually a bit concerned about this one

Era over for Richmond. They need to go to the draft and trade table and begin again. Very successful era, though.

I am one of the few people who actually like Gold Coast. I picked them to finish 8th (not looking good at this stage!)Ballard is becoming a player. 

Maynard is a [censored]. Comes hurtling in to do what? Reminds me of Tommy Bugg - all front no brains.

Crows kicking 3-10 is a poor return, and the Pies will not stop coming.

Maynard such a faux tough guy. Looks like a crack dealer.  

Dealer? That’s being generous. Looks more like the addict with a rotted brain needing us fix.

100% fake tough guy. Nothing surer than Maynard coming in and attacking an unsuspecting opponent.

I am going to watch the rest of crows and filth, enjoy a beer and have a great big LMFAO at richmond. We will now probably hear a big whinge from Hardwick about Marvel.

Dwayne Russell said this week he won’t rule out Richmond until they need to win 10 of the remaining 9 games to make the finals.  He can be quite nauseating at times. 

I'm sorry what was that about Essendon's new look defence?

Zerk-Thatcher on Hawkins was a disaster.

If there is any truth about the five day break being to hard the Pie will get overrun in the last.

Was it a bit over the top today that geelong and Essendon ran through a joint banner for country game?

Agree they are done for a few years (nothing wrong with that, they won 3 flags and arguably their best year they didn’t win it).

Before we make our own descent, I’d like to jag one more at the G 🙏

Rankine…. omg 🤦‍♂️

For a few years before Tassie come in and get every draft concession under the sun.

They are done for a decade.

That miss was a direct result of not looking to where you are supposed to kick.

Collingwood’s belief in desperation blended with outright attacking speed is phenomenal. It’s just frightening for opposing teams when they bring it, and the belief gets stronger. I hate to say it, really HATE it, but they are irresistible at their best.

Seriously? Absolutely over the top. May as well have called it the bogan banner

Crows goal kicking is dreadful. They've kept the pies in this because of it. they'll be sorry when the pies run over the top of them in the last.

I think I've realised that my loathing of Collingwood is almost as high as my love for the Dees. I was feeling sick with anxiety watching the game because I want them to lose so bad. I turned it off because I don't need that on a Sunday night :D

if the crows win i reckon i’ll be so flush i’ll take the family to la pochetta 

FMD

Crows should be at least 10.9. 

Thank goodness essendon are finally out of the 8 

Horrible game in Adelaide

They just traded the farm for Taranto and Hopper thinking they were still in premiership contention. They traded two first rounders, a second rounder and a future first! By my calculations they’re currently set to hand GWS pick 3 and won’t have a first round pick themselves until 2025 draft!

Era is over and they’re going to languish down the bottom longer than usual because they got no draft capital now and the new Tassie team will get concessions in a few years when they finally get picks again. It’s going to be an ugly time for Richmond. They did get to enjoy three flags though so big success.

Almost every player disputing decisions with the ump with hands up

no dissent

can we try to decide what’s allowed?

Yet they can be outplayed for significant periods of matches by average to good sides. It’s odd. Crows kick straight and the Pies would be almost out of the match.
