McGovern loves a flop, still remember him trying to flop against melky couple of years ago.

Tigers losing it through abysmal ball use.

Anyone still think we can’t beat the Blues?

Oh Cripps that is an atrocious set shot kick from naff-all distance.

Cracking game.

Rioli can play

Not much else looks good for Richmond so far

pretty sloppy display, should be closer but richmond lacking a lot of polish trying to finish off their work.

Definite lack of class all over the ground. A very B grade game with no real appeal, and few big exciting moments. If the Tigers stop making horrible decisions forward of centre, and clean up their ball use, the game becomes much more even. The Blues look good in transition but their forward play is dull.

This is the thursday night kick off to round 1?

Meanwhile Dogs v Giants is on at 1pm on Sat

horrible fixturing

This is the problem the AFL has now. It’s too beholden to the broadcasters data. So they know that a horrible Carlton or Essendon game will get big ratings numbers, regardless of how poor it is.

It’s starting to become diminishing returns though. There’s no growth in a consistently poor spectacle.

Carlton have 5 Thursday or Friday night games in the first 6 rounds. Last year they had a 1 win and 11 loss record against the top 10 teams. They are poor by any measure, yet they get served up, no matter how bad they are.

plenty of sweat and effort but very poor skills on show

Tom Lynch is worth a spot on the Olympic diving team

That Weitering handball was like a canon

Lynch ruined the momentum

Yze should drop him for that

I'd love to drop Lynch. Can't stand the pr**k

way too much flopping in this game

Grilj is exciting to play, shame we didn’t go for him.

Certainly not suggesting our picks weren’t good picks but he’s great to watch. Fast and bold.

Imagine letting poor kicking see you lose a game against a team like Carlton..............sorry

This is the worst I've seen Weitering play,

2.10 this Q between the two teams

bottom 6 stuff

Tigers should be well in front, but the Blues are horrid. Surely neither of these 2 see finals in 2026.

Both Cripps and Lynch had opportunities to lead through example and both failed.

Watching 2 of the bottom 4 teams shocking

Lynch the momentum killer misses easy goals!

Absolute stinkfest.

Broncos/Eels match is a beauty

Tigers/Blues tightened up scoring wise in the 2nd half

TV for footy, NRL laptop

Edit: Eels win after copping an absolute hiding last week from the Storm

How can the two rookies for each side be the highest ranked players (by fantasy) players on the field?
