So glad he took his chances. Was sublime.

He needs to be on our list for 8 years to be a free agent. This is only his what, 5th year? Let's just hope he doesn't leave two games short of the magic hundred. So close to father son eligibility it would kill me!

I desperately want us to upset them tomorrow, not only because it would be a win, but because it would be glorious to get the chocolates after 3 years without a Friday night match. Especially after listening to Swans/Coll/Hawks fans whine all week about "bad fixturing"!

Take your chances Viv!

Fans of a certain inside midfielder with the initials VM will be very happy with the only change to the team this week. Roos rewarding players that knock down the door as promised, and not just making rash changes from one bad performance.

We go out there and thump them with physicality from minute one, we will win. Brayshaw starting would indicate the coaches are plainly aware of that. Richmond crumbled under pressure from WB in R2, Roos will be using that as a template for Friday night's game.

Fairly sure after the very well publicised treatment we gave Ablett and Danger, they wouldn't even be entertaining the idea of playing him if he's suffering soreness and we know where. We might have lost against the Crows but Richmond definitely took note of our new-found physicality.

Exactly the player we desperately needed and Roos knew exactly what a talent he was when we put up our first rounder for him despite no assurance of getting pick 3 for Frawley. Or, more likely, they were just making a statement about the inequity of Sydney getting him for peanuts.

No chance. Softest captain in the league. Even Carltank supporters admit that. And yes, Carlton will play hard ball with currency. He's not worth more than a first rounder.

I think we will win. Unlike the GWS game where I had a feeling we'd lose long before the match. Richmond just seem ripe to be the "underestimates their opponent" team for this round.

Roosy isn't so silly as to have Vince tag twice in a row. He'll give that responsibility to another player as the umps will be focused on Vince.

Gutted that Clark got a win today.

Nobody rates West Coast, they're still nothing more than flat track bullies with an over inflated opinion of their list. Fremantle will destroy them.

Wonder who comes in for Frost?

Horrendous shot on goal by M. Jones who, of course, misses.

Come on GOLD COAST! For Geelong to start with 3 losses... oh man, that would be glorious.

Where was this? SEN?

Can't work out Mitchell. He decided to stay at the Swans so he could push his way into their team, yet Heeney walks straight into their starting 22 right after being drafted. Would be a little miffed if I were him.

What CB said. What did WALSH say? Usually coaches are very measured and very complimentary of the opposition?

Well it's safe to say that in a game plan that loves stoppages, this would indicate a large part in why it's not working for us.

Admirable that they hung in there, but we seem to be incapable of combining attack and defence the way the best teams do. We seem to be capable of only one or the other per game.

Adelaide will always get a good rub off the umps in Adelaide. It's pathetic, but it's how it works.

Hate Chappy too, but bloody undisciplined from Yarran. If every footy player went around clocking people they don't like, we wouldn't have many players left. That said, we're still far too soft a team and lack mongrel.

Yeah, nah...

I think we all know the reason this took so much longer than the other result is because they had to ensure they didn't contradict their blatantly corrupt finding the other week. This all just stinks to high hell. Come on in WADA!
