AFL Round 17: Greater Western Sydney v Richmond Saturday 7:25pm AEST @SS

[The Falcon Strike]

Tigger train is obviously a local service only

 

[MarcusP2]

0-4 interstate... premiership fancies y?

Because they won't have to play interstate in the finals.

 

[VictorianCrow85]

how many 'famous wins' has there been recently

Dunno, can't remember any.

 

[dave123]

Was a good win and gives hope for everyone ...they are beatable

GWS I have said they are telented ...they could so do bulldogs 2016 ....easily

Richmond are beatable ....and I tnink a loss for the tigers keeps them hungry

 

[peternorth]

0-4 interstate for the Tigers. Hmm.

Despite the Jedi mind tricks of the Melbourne media to paint them as a juggernaut, they are just ordinary away from the comforts of home and should not be compared to great sides of the recent past.

I think at the end of the day, if richmond can win all games at the G, and have two home finals, win those, and win the grand final, the interstate record won't really matter.

In the old days Richmond used to love playing away. OFten won away. In 1995 Richmond won in adelaide, perth and sydney. But didn't win the flag

 

[madmug]

Well done Giants!

Given the players out, yes an amazing effort & a great result for them.

 

[Tiger71]

Good win GWS.

Take nothing away from them but having more scoring shots but kicking 10.17 we only have our selves to blame.

Oh well, still 1st with saints next week and we beat the pies pretty easily when we play them.

Gws deserve to play finals and hope this win kicks them on.

 

[kickazz]

GWS fans need to learn how to tell out "BAAAAALLL" A lot of incorrect disposal tonight

 

[Luv_our_club]

What a ripper club song!

If things go well for the giants, they have so much talent, they should win multiple flags

 

[Smartest Brain]

Simpson has been so good for us since he came in. WOooooooo..

 

[Bulldog1954]

The tigs blew it, particularly late in the third when they kicked 5 behinds in a row.

 

[Lex22]

Ah well we kick straight and we beat them. Castagna should hand is his pay cheque for the week.

Not sure about that, Giants played the better footy and should’ve been much further ahead in the third quarter.

 

[PetterdHoisted]

?

9/10 Tiges win that.

Should close their eyes shooting for goal, result would be better!

 

[Ron The Bear]

You could tell Richmond were in trouble in the 1st quarter with the look on Hardwicks face. He didn't look well.

Wasn’t a sandwich sort of evening.

 

[Boppo]

Langdon will be breathing a sigh of releif..butterfingers in the dying minutes twice

 

[dave123]

Because they won't have to play interstate in the finals.

They could lose week one .....they are not are lock for top two ...they are 4 positive ts clear ...one team..pies or eagles will be equal by tomorrow night

Won't play away from Melbourne come finals.

This is still an open season, if GWS can gain momentum they can be just as dangerous as Richmond, Collingwood or anyone else in the 8

That may be true, but good sides win interstate regularly and great sides win interstate consistently.

Whatever else happens at the MCG, Richmond are neither good nor great at the moment.

 

[JinmboJones]

GWS didn't win that one, Richmond lost it. Way too many missed opportunities. Castagna and Bolton both have to go. All Bolton needed to do at the end there was kick a point and he missed everything.

Lol. Richmond lost. Umpires tried to get them back in the game, commentators barracking for Richmond and they lost. Martin going missing again - flat track bully that guy, don't believe the Vic media hype.

Bad kicking is bad football.

 

[dave123]

So many bitter interstate flogs in a game day thread.

I take joy in hating Victorians....lol

I feel like Richmond probably should have won but didn't convert their chances. A lot like us for about 7 games this year. We would clearly be #1 if we weren't so bad at converting and everyone would be fearing us. Anyhow happy with the win and think it will give us some confidence.

 

[Frank Gallagher]

Make sure your still here at the end of our game

Can't win away from Melbourne lol, the ****ing GC would fancy themselves against you at home.
