Autopsy AFL 2024 Round 9 - Tigers v Dogs Sat May 11th 7:30pm AEST (MCG)

[_Mike_]

If Dogs seriously come to play, they should win comfortably.

But if they pull the same "We'll just turn up for 15 minutes and it's enough" bulldust they did last week, Richmond are in with a genuine chance.

Any team that plays us this season is in with a chance, even North & WCE

 

[CarnTheScray]

Tip Richmond now.

Richmond to win.

They'll be carried over the line by umpires massively over correcting after recent press/commentary.

That their errors will end Bevo's career (while not hurting the career anyone within the umpires or league) says all you need to know about the CFL.

 

[Daka]

We have some pretty big IN's.

Still think the Dogs will win, not confident that Prestia & Graham will get through a game.
Bont usually destroys us.

 

[tiger_tough]

If Pickett can do a decent job on Bont like he did Petracca a few weeks back I think we're a chance without Libba there.

Carried over the line? Hahahahahaha
Surely you watched a Richmond game in the last 8 years?

Unless there has been a massive revolution among the umpires this past week, this is how I think it’ll go:

- They massively overreact in the first quarter and almost pay everything our way (e.g. 10-2).

- Richmond supporters get comfortable and start wondering what has gotten into the umpires.

- We methodically lose the free kick count over the next three quarters. Sprinkle with a couple of 50-metre penalties against us on top.

- The free kick count is somewhere in the +2 to -2 range by the end of the match.

Then we travel to Brisbane and it’s back to the regular program of getting thumped in free kick.

Yes, I want the umps to “carry us over the line” on Saturday for once. But I also want a one-off million dollar payment “for once” on Saturday too. Neither are likely to happen.

Naughtons going at 70+% this year

Naughtons going at 70+% this year

It was sarcasm

 

[juss]

Just as we had a bit of a lift with a few players back, Baker goes out with a corked thigh.

I think we are some chance, but could equally see Bulldogs blowing us out of the water.

I dont think Beverage can afford this loss as head coach.

 

[CarnTheScray]

If Pickett can do a decent job on Bont like he did Petracca a few weeks back I think we're a chance without Libba there.

Don’t worry even if Bont plays like a demigod the rest of the the team is so inept it cancels out.

 

[Shade]

Not sure what the gain for the bulldogs is if they win.

Just delaying the inevitable

I don’t think that poster has seen many Richmond games, as of the last 8 seasons ?

 

[Kreuuuzeurns]

Spoilt for choice tonight. Reckon this matchup pips GC vs North. But only just.

 

[CaptchaProofBot]

Bill Kelty by a landslide...

 

[southern_crusher]

The G looks completely empty

 

[Mitchell Madness]

Parts of l4 closed for a togs home game vs a Melbourne side in prime time....
How the mighty have fallen

 

[Bird Man]

more umpire hate standard

 

[docko911]

Sick of not being paid free kicks stupid dog campaigners

 

[MJG14]

Camera work/production has been poor so far. A centre clearance and goal have been missed.

 

[kreuze_missile]

Dogs downhill skiing tonight.

Could be 100+

 

[southern_crusher]

Doesn't the tiger army support footy anymore or something. No one there.

 

[Gavin Excell]

Bolton has faded away as a player

They gave up a while back

 

[Sprout]

Man these are some half hearted cheers from the Dogs fans. Awkward.
