Shocked that we're favourites for this. Don't think we're ready, and we're fast running out of time to be ready.
I just dont want this to be the game where we play Richmond into form.
Please keep bombing the ball into your attacking 50 so that McGovern can take a record number of intercept marks. That would really help us out tonight.

Looking forward to seeing Bouncing Bailey Williams in action.
And sometimes twice a week.We are last for frees for this season. That means we have got less free kicks than any other club.
Your players are copping multiple fines for staging for frees. Staging. Diving. That is dead set embarrasing. And to round things off your full forward seems to like biffing blokes every second week.
Open both eyes. This all sounds like a you problem buddy!
WC are in good nick and Richmond are just going okay, but we do that. The side who's stars show up will win. Martin, Darling, those types who can take hold of a game. Reckon Soldo is not to bad a match up with NicNat because he has a decent leap for a big unco ruckman. NN usually jumps all over us. And Nank is aggressive backup, so who's crumbers are best. We are missing Prestia, you Yoe. Kelly is in good touch though as is Cotchin.
Such a gentlemanly thread in comparison to the normal trash between Rich/WC posters. 7.10pm should see that come to an end for a good 12 months unless we meet come finals. Eatemalive.

You have received exactly as many frees as you've given away. Just because for once you're not being kissed on the dick doesn't mean you're getting a hard run. We have received 30 fewer frees (equal third-worst differential) and you'll never hear a Richmond fan complaining about the umps.We are last for frees for this season.

(That was a joke.)
The stars will show up (don't forget we're missing Edwards too - that's the top-2 in the B&F from last year's flag). The bottom six might decide this. Ours are better. Richmond by 14.

Compared to last weekend's games in QLD, it will be a touch more slippery given that sea breezes have returned. Should be around 16 degrees for kick off. Expect a bit of dew to develop during the game.

Game plan should be to wrap it up early to not risk any cheap shots or shameful flops winning it for Richmond again
This idea that Richmond prefers slippery conditions is nonsense. Anyone who has been watching our games will have noticed how our slick handball game has been affected: instead of being away to the races, it's been fumble, turnover. Anyone who has watched us the last three years cannot deny our best footy has come in dry September weather. We might adjust to slippery better than a slow, top-heavy, kick-mark team like West Coast, but we'd prefer dry weather.
No cant agree with your thoughts their
It is like backing a top racehorse which has got a great record at Ascot - a pretty good record at Caulfield and Flemington - but a diabolical record at Doomben
Youd want top see it put in a decent run on that track - before you start knocking people over in the queue in a rush to get your money on at the $2.30 on offer

Attaboy. Thread was way too polite.
By the way, are there any flops that are not "shameful"?

I think the Eagles win this one. They are currently in better four quarter form than the Tigers. I think too that the Eagles, in my mind, are the current flag favourites. They just look so solid across the board.
Could this be the GF preview? I think so.

I have a sneaking suspicion our form is better than it looks. We've looked average when shit teams like Essendon and Gold Coast have flooded our forward line, but we also dominated those games, and we pistol-whipped good teams like Brisbane and the Dogs.
Game style has a bit to do with it also.
Same with ground ball gets. Eagles kick and mark, kick and mark. Their plan is to hold onto the ball and not kick to a contest until getting past half way.
Even our defenders mark more often than spoiling, another way to avoid giving frees away and getting them.
It's a two horse race, those odds rate the Eagles a 43% chance now, I just think they are a better chance than that, you've got to look at our recent performances vs theirs. I'd have it 60/40 their way.
be fascinating to see if hardwick tells them to kick worm burners all night unless theres a clear lead.

Jesus. No second-gamer O'Neill or the cat Duggan or the child Rotham. That's a bottom nine!! You really will be relying on your stars.

I'm getting more confident by the minute.
