I didn't realise Richmond were such grubby bastards.

Nibbler you ripper

Tomlinson playing very well. May doesn't seem right.

Salem having a great game. Calmness personified in the chaos

Richmond are sneaky bastards. Always with the sly dig in every contest.

Only 7 points down after being under the cosh for most of the quarter. I'll take that

Poor poor option Kozzie. Don;t try to be a hero. Top of square

Superb Salem. exactly what we needed.

Gotta kick that Fritsch.

Lynch scumbag

Richmond have come to play

WTF Kayo.

Confidence has grown throughout the day. I was more worried about our previous games against what were considered lesser opposition, games we were "expected" to win. This game is a free hit in effect. Expectations are lower. Dees by 3 goals

I would prefer to sit beside a screaming baby on a long haul flight than listen to BT.

Just hit the mute button folks if mr sniffle is getting on your nerves

Home advantage does make a big difference. Same with West Coast at Optus.

Cats never miss an opportunity to boost their percentage. Always keep their foot on the throat. It's a lesson we could do with learning

I hope West Coast get pumped by 100 points here

A lot of people went early eulogising the Swans. Those academy picks don’t look so flash at the moment. I know they have injuries but their performance so far is very poor.

I see that as well as his 3 goals BB also laid a tackle. Who said he couldn't apply the pressure ?

Phenomenal barrel from Duncan after the siren. The cats were excellent that quarter. West Coast are pathetic. They are not serious flag contenders.

I reckon West Coast will fold like a cheap suit. Down hill skiers.

Watching the Cats v West Coast. Can't decide which team i dislike more.

Given the concussion issues he has overcome this is a mighty effort. Playing a real team role for the club this year. Delighted with how he is travelling Well done Gus

We gotta bring the heat. Spargs, Kozzie and Nibbler are absolutely key. If we allow the tiges to exit our forward 50 unchecked we’re doomed. May back into our defensive unit gives me a lot of confidence that our defensive structures will hold (as long as the tiges aren't coming at us in waves - see point above). My concern is goal kicking. If we don’t take our chances we don’t win. It’s a s simple as that. Accuracy is critical. Genuine 50/50 game. Even kicking straight and applying finals like pressure may not be enough. I don’t know which way it’ll go but tbh if we execute on our game plan and show we can mix it with the tiges I won’t be too disappointed with a loss. What I don’t want to see is Richmond carving us up through the middle and imposing their game style on us.
