Round 23 Non MFC Games
3 out 4 of Richmondâs last 4 games have been victories by 3, 3 and 8. Everyone is gettable this year.

Match Preview and Team Selection - Round 23
Although a loss would mean I could watch the team week 1 of the finals this is a must win game. A home final first up and a potential dream run of all finals at the G should we be good enough to progress. It will be really interesting to see our mindset at the start of the game.

Dylan Shiel, get it done.

Farewell Jesse Hogan
Something that I donât think anyone has considered is money. Heâs 24 next year and in the last year of his contract, obviously none of us know how much heâs on but it would be fair to assume it would be quite substantial. Part of his contract would of been based on potential and the go home factor. This next contract should be naturally larger and his âpaydayâ. But if his inability to perform in big games continues or a potential move to defence was to occur (I canât see this happening, I think he would change clubs to where he could play forward) then he would/should be offered a contract that reflects his worth to the team. This could result in a significant difference between what weâre offering a what another club may offer.

Finals Tickets
Being a Redleg my GF ticket awaits. Cant wait to watch the boys put Richmond to the sword.

How far will we get?
Dream big, on our day we can beat anyone. Stating the obvious we canât afford any more injuries.

Run home to Finals - 2018
I think the Pies will have the higher %. They play Freo while Hawks play the Swans.

Run home to Finals - 2018
A hypothetical..... We beat Giants next week and the Hawks beat the Swans. If we were to beat Geelong and the Pies beat WCE in Perth. We could potentially play all our finals at the G if we weâre good enough to progress through.

Thanks, much appreciated.

Run home to Finals - 2018
Can anyone remember how the swap over occurs in the finals? The winner of 5 v 8 plays loser of ? The winner of 6 v 7 plays loser ? Is there a real potential to play week 1 Geelong week 2 Pies week Hawks/Tigers

The Elephant in the Room
Iâm saying all teams have injuries. We didnât lose the mentioned games because Lever and Viney werenât playing. I think mindset is the reason we lost, and thatâs an area the Hawks have us well and truly covered.

Hawks currently have a couple out.

How would Hogan go on Buddy, Ben Brown or a Joe Danniher type. If the answer is for Hogan to play in defence that actually strengthens the argument to trade him and a trade should be sought before any such move was to happen. If Hogan was to play in defence it would be an admissioyn of defeat. The no.1 trait of a key defender isnât contested marking or kicking, itâs the ability to beat your opponent. That can be by out marking his opponent, but it can also be by punching/spoiling the footy. In order to be at the contest you also have to have the physical attributes to match up against some of the games best forwards. Hogan is a great mark leading up onto the ball but that doesnât necessarily translate to outmarking fwds that just up at the footy. As for kicking, yes Hogan uses the ball well when passing by foot while others such as Frost and Omac often get criticised by their disposal but thatâs why weâve got the likes of Salem and Lewis down there. All players are required to kick the footy but there have been numerous times in most games where the ball could/should be passed off to our better users of the footy. In short Iâd rather another gun mid than Hogan playing at CHB.

Agree with this, but with this comes a significant pay drop.

Run home to Finals - 2018
I hear you B.B. and totally agree, but the wheel has to turn in our favour at some point. Iâm not confident but hopefull, so until itâs confirmed, for me weâre still alive.

I wasnât aware of the interest from Essendon. I would do that deal without hesitation.

Hogan 2018 season over with foot injury
Mastering the art of bafoonery. I posted several times in the âtrade Hoganâ thread yesterday and I stand by my comments, mainly âyou ultimately get judged by how you perform in the big gamesâ. For you to suggest some of us take any joy out of this news is just plain stupid. And no I donât feel ashamed, Iâll leave that to those who either canât or refuse to deal with reality. Its happened, we process it, park it up and move on, weâve still got two games to play and a potential finals campaign. I personally believe this news doesnât mark the end of our season.

Hogan 2018 season over with foot injury
The Suns game provided that opportunity but wasnât taken.

Farewell Jesse Hogan
So he played hurt against the Suns for what reason?

Farewell Jesse Hogan
With regards to TMac Jaded I donât think we honestly know what his maximum output is. Weâve never seen him at FF for a whole game, let alone a whole season.

Farewell Jesse Hogan
Please read my post about whoâs heâs kicked those goals against, again players are judged in the big games.
