Out of all the interstate teams making grand finals, only Adelaide have a genuine case of unfairness.

Sydney? Should worry about turning up for finals/grand finals rather than where they are located

Cant believ all the media love for ‘bloods culture’ when they are the new colliwobbles


Also brisbane and Sydney have Victorian supporter bases

It's probably just to serve the NRL fans right.

When the real sport starts, the trains will be running efficiently.

What the f is round zero about then? Gave the storm clear air this weekend.

I wish that was the case but it isn’t.

Big win. Brisbane are just so untrustworthy. Their core is good enough but they are missing something

A good enough coach? Hard players?

Hipwood just ain't the man for the job.

 

[Bedi]

It really shat me Carlton came back to win this. But you know what, 2024 I'm not going to letting the results of non-Hawthorn games bother me. (though will be tough for Essendon games...)

Legit question, is there a softer player currently in the AFL than Hipwood?

He's got talent but geez when you compare him to Rough and Buddy who used to love to mix it up he looks super soft.

That's one thing I think gets lost a bit about our 3 peat team. Yes we had a team of incredibly skilled players (especially by foot) but across the board our playing list was as hard at it as anyone (Guerra, Hale, Birchall, Mitchell, Hodge etc).

Leading in to our game on 28 April, can someone with a line to Sam let him know that the entire Swans team can't kick on their opposite foot.

Interstate clubs have flagged a radical best-of-three grand final series to reduce Victorian clubs’ MCG home ground advantage.
The NBA-style shake up is among a raft of changes that interstate clubs have floated to level the AFL’s playing field.

Would ruin the magic of the grand final to be honest.

A one off means both teams are in with a shot and it comes down to whose better on the day.

2 out of 3 means the better team wins more often but loses a lot of the excitement that goes into it.

A week off before the grand final is also a stupid idea was trialled in 2021 and sucked.

Hipwood looks like a woman Russian pole vaulter. This makes it sting even more when when always seems to kick 3-4 against us.

Melbourne's issue last year is they tried too hard to keep gawn in the ruck at the expense of Grundy.
Grundy as ruck and gawn as a forward would've been scary!

Didn’t Gawn pull rank after a few games and say he had to play ruck to? Their was a scene in the rooms after a win (can’t remember if it was a final) were Grundy went to high five or hug a few players after the song and everyone walked past him. I reckon he was always on the outer with the dees, not just on the field but off.

 

[Buckemenico]

Dees should have gone for Gunston instead of Grundy. So obvious

 

[HedgeFund]

Dees should have gone for Gunston instead of Grundy. So obvious

The Jack Gunston who wanted to leave Victoria and play under Chris Fagan like his premiership team mates Luke Hodge and Grant Birchall did?

Didn’t realise he probably wanted to move to Gosch’s Paddock and play under Simon Goodwin.

Tiges looking putrid.

 

[Cleavy]

might be a very long season ahead for Richmond

 

[smish]

Richmond have a bad 5+ years coming up. They are miles off where we were in 2020.

 

[Blackhawk42]

I'm good mates with the goal umpire currently officiating the Tigers end in this second quarter.

Let's just say, from a most hated team perspective, that's he currently fist pumping on the inside watching the Suns put them to the sword right now.

Richmond will finish bottom two this year. They have checked out

 

[peetoo]

You may not see a poorer fwd line all thei season than today

 

[Flukey!]

Richmond....horrid.

 

[QuietB]

The scary bit is the Suns are not even that clean and they are still smashing them

 

[hawkman]

Koschitzke spoiling the forward in a better position. I won't miss that

 

[Hodgey 15]

Richmond supporters haven't wasted their time turning on Yze lol.
Don't change Tiger supporters.

This isn’t even the ground floor of the rebuild for Richmond yet.
Prestia, Broad, Grimes all completey cooked as footballers.
Poor Yze, he won’t see 3 seasons out
