Game Day Around The Grounds Rounds 21 - 24

[thylacine60]

tigers struggling to admit their fast approaching and long-term obliteration - you get the feeling the supporters have little feeling for the players at all - reading their site, they abuse and absolutely vilify triple premiership players as though they don't even ike them or feel any sense of gratitude - sickening

Go Giants

Go Port. Top 4 is nigh impossible.

Would prefer we get 6 points clear of GWS so round 24 doesn't come down to playing for a home final as much as it was previously built up to make the 8.

 

[jj1978]

Richmond players not on the McQualter train I gather.

 

[Andypooh23]

I'm enjoying all these retro jumpers.
I hope we will do one.
Maybe the one we wore late 90's where the monogram popped off the jumper.
Will remind me of Kouta.

Richmond players on the "we don't play at MARVEL" train

They'll get up for next week to send off Cotch then get pumped at Port.

Once again, makes sense Wick! I think we will wrap up our spot in the 8 next week which will be huge and I also think we will secure 5th no matter this result. Honestly, think my want for Giants to win is to increase the chance of avoiding playing the Dogs first week. But a lot to play out before that comes to fruition.

Hope you’re doing well mate

 

[Dunna Heartknee]

Port look switched on either way good for us.

 

[Juddalenko]

This game feels done. Not super incredible play by Port. GWS just seem asleep.

 

[BigBreakfast]

Riccardi. Bang bang

 

[Foucault1989]

Richmond players not on the McQualter train I gather.

I can't believe he is being spoken about as an option. Massive Bolton vibes. The "good guy" assistant coach doesn't necessarily mean they'll be a good senior coach. Senior coaching is a different beast.

McRae might be the exception here but he strikes me as a stronger leader.

 

[BigBreakfast]

How did Greene do that?

I wouldn't mind the dogs first week

 

[BigBreakfast]

Byrne-Jones got a little full of himself there.

I wouldn't mind the dogs first week

Just my own insecurity I’d love to put the Cats out. But there’s 3-4 teams in the mix to finish there. A few upsets over the next couple of weeks can change everything

 

[Juddalenko]

Interesting handball by Byrne Jones….

 

[Elmer_Hauser]

I really want Mitchito Owens to win the Rising Star even if he plays for the Stains.

Love seeing players of different ethnic backgrounds/parentage succeed at AFL level !

 

[BigBreakfast]

Throw from Byrne-Jones?

 

[BigBreakfast]

Butters goes alright.

True. We usually match up okay against the dogs and they don't play the McG as often as us. I didn't want Richmond or Geelong

In the matchday thread you scoffed when someone suggest he could win.....

 

[Stig O'Hara]

Swampies are flying.

 

[Juddalenko]

According to Dwayne Russell, Bergman is one of the finest players in the comp…

 

[BIuebagger]

Bergman with a pretty huge quarter. Not one of the finest though, Dwayne

I wonder if any richmond conspiracy theorist has ever considered the machinations that would need to be at play in utter secrecy, and the number of people involved for an umpiring corruption system to "bring the biggest club down"? that in order for it to actually exist there would need to be probably hundreds of people involved, deliberately and otherwise, with no whistle-blowers, no leaks, no rumours, no investigations........maybe they are just done?
