I have a peculiar feeling we're setting ourselves for the 1st QF....and against the Pies.... that i think is our best crack at the Flag.. In that view we might be 'trialling' a few more modified line ups if for no other reason than the observe the checks and balances of the group. The finals campaign as we all observe is a different kettle of fish. If all goes well for us it might be but 3 games. But we need contingency through all of that. There may occur the necessity for a bit of plug and play if injury surfaces. Tomorrow's game is an excellent opportunity for refining the optimum mix whilst maintaining fitness through the list. Those that trot out will be expected to.do the job on Norf...to do the things they've trained and to do them better and better with each outting. I always seem to have my stomach in knots with Joel playing a full game but his efforts recently have been stalwart. Can.he apply same for 4/4 atm ? That's a q the fd are im sure asking and for Smith to answer. Again this game a good one for that to be tested. Dusty comes in and out of games now. His best is brilliant. It will test anyone. I think Riv is growing in leaps and bounds...but he'll still be handed lessons... he's still young ( really ) Woey... this season.is a bit of a blooding. We need to temper expectations.... he might or not get many more munutes this year but another full preseason.. will help immensely. He's on his way. Already a handy backup. Milky... love his footy.. This end of the season and finals is made for him and he for them. Hibbo.. has qualities a few others dont. He'll be played when suits. Brodie... no idea really. I can only guess the real plan for him over this and coming years is not quite what we thought...though i sense some revision by the club ( and him ) has occurred. Time will tell... Have a sneaky he might be cleverly instrumental during finals. Think Brown is now Back up Benny. Not to be discounted as we need players who CAN step in. Harmes, Spargo, Jordan are role players...not all roles every week. ....and with Clarry coming back ( some point....one day ) ...well theres only so many deckchairs you can shuffle. Will watch the game with much interest...more about the HOW we go about it than the scoreboard. Go Dees

Toiges are pathetic A̶T̶M̶ !̶!̶ (fixed 😉 )

There's NO Whisky in Ireland ;)

Bound to be 4 to 5 goals better than typical durge.

Agree with this.. Just wondering how much of a spanner got thrown in ....with Petty throwing a party ?? I sense still a bit more "movement" of magnets....but just finessing ..not wholesale shuffles...jmo. Interesting

Nature of source ?? ( no need to mention names )

No No No...Old....it would be BEAUTIFUL !! ;)

mind pm'ing me Thursdays Powerball numbers T.U. ..Cheers ( this week...not last...ta...)

I'll keep this short.and simple.. WOW...just WOW ... ( and my wife doesn't understand why i yell at the telly......well... she does really... ) Pass the VoVos around... one hell of a game. Max...you earnt your 'dart'... Milky..... ffs... mirror image goals.... no need to take the pizz out of the Toiges !! Harrison..... i was wrong ( it happens...just ask previously mentioned 'swmbo') Every one else....superb team effort. The Box.....take a bow...take two.... Footy is a funny game eh.... Many of my family....just a bit "wobbly" atm.... bless them....

No idea ?? Try the mirror. Retirement through injury invariably a negotiated outcome. The figure(s) wont be anything to worry over.

Well as it happened some arrived in this mornings Coles Delivery.... Must admit 2 bananas does not make a Hand inho....is there trouble on the horizon ?? hmmmm

If DAMIAN BARRETT had any footy clue... THEN.. ( consensus suggests we can just leave it there.....nothing to add )

Almost see it as some sanity by the FD.. The backline aint broke....dont fix it ;) Sparrow needs replacing...so is... Fwd line...still needs to gel Brown can play ...make no mistake... but he's fighting his own body.. He'll, i think, become the go to replacement should things go a bit pear shaped. So... Petty in... needs to cement that spot... finals ARE closing. Dees by 3/4 goals...

So the obvious choice was us. Hes already had more success with us than before. It's not up to us to red carpet his ascension.... he has to show there's a reason. For some players the Magoos is fertile ground... the Seniors....gets a tad barren. Some sorta exist in that space in between. He is one such. That's not a slight...just a an 'is' He may yet get another crack. Who knows. He's not really a problem...he's a standby fix it. Kudos to the lad for application.

They might let loose with how did they lose having lost. Then at least they could list that loss be it not their last lest they might then know how they have lasted losing.

Is that you Biff ???

Toiges vastly more feral than Filth....let that just filter through for a moment 😉

Can't say I'd share that view given his recent outings/form. Id really like him to get a good solid run in the magoos.

They're not a terribly evolved lot ;)

Still shown as 2-3 Is that weeks or months ?? If this is just a hamstring I'm the archangel Gabriel. Best recovery Clarry !!

I was livid in my loungeroom re that "touched" goal... Even my darling ( magpie ) wife was aghast....agog...and downright confused... .. I've lived in S.A. they're parochial beyond the pale.

I'd start drooling at the idea of anyone close to be a Swarta !!

How big is the lad now out of curiosity ?? cheers

Richmonds recent wins have not been against the leagues best defenders. Tiges recent wins: rated defence (wheelo) Hawthorn... ..... 14th West Coast....... 18th Sydney............. 9th St Kilda............ 5th Fremantle........ 10th Giants............ 11th Now they come up against....US... currently rated 2nd. Our attack.... 7th v their 10th We ought to shade them. But they'll ve having a red hot go... but we wont disappear in the 4th

We can sort of be both...and that's when we come alive... Let the backs lock it down... but a lot more daring do as McVee shows at times.. even Woey giving glimpses. Control the back...light up the front. Pick your moments ...take your chances. They say not to give a sucker and even break.. Keep the pressure on THEIR defence.. If the only difference in the end is the calibre of defence....we win. If we can take that and add 'elements' of inspirational incursion .... if the likes of Chandler and Kozzi can pick their pockets.. we give ourselves double the likelihood of a win. I wouldn't take this game lightly... but I'd be attacking rather than defending.
