Sitting 6-0, having just humiliated the reigning premier and benchmark team of the last 4 years. Up against the most irrelevant of the clubs having a VFL lineage. We simply MUST smash them. Clinical, emotionally detached ruthlessness. No pity, no empathy, no quarter given. We've been on the receiving end from the peak Geelong and Hawthorn teams of the past decade or so, not to mention Essendon and even North themselves. Let's do our bit towards consigning that insipid lurching organisation into the dustbin of history.

I wouldn't wipe.my ar$e with that tabloid low-brow populist rag.

Salem - was vital when the pressure was genuinely on Petracca - extraordinarily powerful display by the best player in the game Oliver - creates something from nothing. So good. And just great to see the love between him and Trac, etc. Rivers - loved those efforts at ground level to get a hand on the ball and get it clear. Big part of our defence. Tmac - critical goals Jacko - just got better and better throughout. I had my reservations with his drafting but his upside is stratospheric.

Yeah I think Trac might come out of this game on top of the vaunted Dusty-Trac face off!

Absolutely LOVING our pressure. Such team first play and contribution across the teamsheet. One qtr to go. Keep it up!

Such bollocks. A 50-odd metre kick out of defence with half a dozen teammates in that direction. Umpires trying to manufacture a Richmond comeback.

Frittata!!!

Trac is a stupendous talent. Fantastic effort and smarts. Great start to 2nd half!

Salem 21 disposals half way through 2nd quarter. Skills spun from pure silk.

That bump on Oliver has to come under scrutiny. If Dangerfield copped weeks that surely has to too.

Hoping our fitness can see us going the distance. They really seemed to have a lot at contest after contest that quarter.

Feels a bit like the 200 GF at the moment. Coming up against a tougher, rougher seasoned opponent.

Did that Richmond grub just punch Kozzie in the groin?

Doing a good job of clawing back into this the last few mins.

How late are the Tigers forwards with the arm in the back of a defender's head?

[censored] where is the high tackle on lever ffs

Need to steady here. We can go the distance let's get these nerves out of the way.

Excellent excellent work by spargo.

Jonesey gets to take the coin toss. Nice.

F$*%&s sake Kayo!!! What am I paying you for??? One of the biggest and most poignant fixtures of the season and I'm watching some Brisbane Carlton [censored] minutes before the game kicks off?????

Kozzy has seemed to really love playing in front of crowds these early rounds after last year's situation. I reckon we might be in for a treat tonight.

Hopefully this is the heavy bit and it clears up in the coming hours.

Win 5 flags in 6 years, and 6 flags in 10 years, like we did* then they can frigging talk. * when my father was a toddler.

4 players in the top 14. Fantastic stuff.

Would we even have a club to rave about this year if Jones had've chased success during our dark years? Probably, but I shudder to think where we'd be at. 300 games is a huge milestone - particularly for MFC. He's outlasted many titans of the club. Well done and congratulations Chunk (presuming nothing untoward happens on the training track or selection table this week!).
