AFLW 2024 - Round 9 - Indigenous Round - Chat, game threads, injury lists, team lineups and more.
our main weapon of running teams down has been taken away from us this season with the reduced quarters,
so any B#itch complaining about tigers getting homes games and free rides and umpiring decisions should zip it.
Now that I got that out of the way I have a feeling we will win this game, head says eagles too strong.
Are you preparing your excuses already?Righto.
It's a real 50/50 game. Richmond on ground conditions. West Coast on playing the last six games at home instead of the Gold Coast, Brisbane, Sydney, Adelaide and Darwin, with seven day breaks between every match instead of four or five.
It sounds simple but we havent been! We've been kicking so poorly directly to the opposition or to a 2/3 on 1 situation and havent been able to contest and then lock it in, teams are just scoring too easily when we turn it over.
If Hardwick has one focus this week at training it needs to be forward 50 entries and bringing the ball to ground. We don't need to win the aerial contests, just can't be destroyed by bombing it long to a cluster of defenders with no one competing.
Nic Nat will kill us in the ruck contests, there's really nothing we can do about that particularly, we don't have a match up. Maybe the attempt will be with 2 ruckman we can tire him around the ground or try and get ahead when he is resting as he doesnt play the full game, but when he is on we can't really stop him giving first service.
I'm probably not, not based on the formlines and how the two sides have been playing. The only thing that gives me hope is it's Richmond (that statement would have been laughable 5 years ago) and we can definitely perform on the big stage in the big games.Nic is a bit of a freak, and when he's on no one in the league can stop him but that is for the most part at the stoppages and even more so in the centre square. The Oscar Allen pinch hit in the ruck to allow Nic to rest on the bench and not up forward appears to be working (so far) and his game time has steadily increased.Richmond's ability to pressure when they really turn it on is hands down the best in the game , that creates the ground ball and that's where West Coast struggle. Like that last few matches between Rich and WC , I'm expecting a cracker of a game.
Cant stand night games in QLD, ok in the 1st qtr then gets slippery as fk.
We'll probably have to win all our remaining games to make the 4. But with the likes of Edwards, Prestia and Astbury hopefully returning, they might need the extra game we'd get if we don't.Looking forward to it
Leagues 2 biggest clubs where winner probably locks in top 4 position and flag favouritism
Loser finds itself uphill battle to make top 4
Typical Victorian humidity bias.13 degrees, 82% humidity, and wind of about 15km/hr forecast at around 8pm.
Oscar Allen likely to miss you would assume due to his cork he copped on the weekend
I think he will make Nank look like a schoolgirl.Remember this kid from the draft. Exciting talent. I hope Nank doesn't kill him.

I think you are placing way too high expectations on a young debutant.I think he will make Nank look like a schoolgirl.

Now, onto important stuff. What do we call this clash? The Robert Wiley Cup? The Peter Wilson Cartwheel In The Ocean? The Todd Bremen Wait I Thought You Said Michael Brennan Swifty? The How Good Was Mark Merenda Memorial?
It's a portmanteau, dopey. Wilson was famous at Richmond for doing a cartwheel after we beat Carlton one night in the dark days.It's "cork in the ocean" noob
But in honour of Jeremy Humm, I would propose we call it the Humm Dinger Cup
free kicks?
Should be a cracker. Best two teams in the comp.
I'm only gaggin.Haven't you seen the free kick ladder for 2020.
Eagles are last for free kicks for.
Tough game to pick. I'm hoping the 29 degree heat in Darwin last weekend sucked the energy out of the Tigers for this game, counters the four day turn around for the Eagles.
Both teams traveled last week to.
Eagles to sneak past the Tigers in the final 10 mins of the game.

As if I don't know "Wilson like a cork in the ocean, over his head, oh my word!" It's one of the great calls of all time.
