I think they meant from the AFLs point of view

They’ve got a heap of talent on their list. Lots of young talent in the midfield, will get another gun at pick 1. Already have their bookends sorted with mckay and larkey. Only mistake they made was taking 2 mids in the 2020 (Phillips and Powell), when that draft was heavy with KP talent. With the amount of young mids north have they’ll end up having trade one for unders of what they should be worth as they’ll likely have been played out of position.
Simpkin, LDU, phillips, Powell, Thomas, Horne-Francis and say wardlaw/ potentially Ashcroft if he doesn’t nominate.

Agreed. Shame that Phillips seemingly has a nasty bout of glandular fever - hopefully makes a full recovery and doesn't battle the issues Waterman has.

Seven commentary really trying to put lipstick on a pig calling this match finals quality. Both teams skills are terrible

 

[rumply]

Fyfe broken glass these days.

 

[TheGrizz]

Sheesh, that poor Cumberland kid

 

[MiguelM]

Wasted chance for Freo. Had plenty of forward play but no marking forwards.

 

[Zach Package]

Richmond’s level of self sabotage is approaching ‘hiring The Weapon and Bomber Thompson’ levels of WTF

 

[eth-dog]

Lobb is absolutely vital for Freo.

 

[Call Me Cake]

Umps have put the whistle away on a lot of upper body contact and it's made the game a lot more fun to watch.

 

[kelvin_sheedy]

The head high rule was umpired perfectly.

4 or 5 looking for the free didn't get it. Cotchin is a serial offender at milking frees.

Gary Lyon asking the panel if they have ever played in a draw. Nick Riewoldt gets traumatic 2010 flashbacks!

Tell us about your round 3 draw Jono!

 

[Sporno 4 Pyros]

52 points each side…was the game played at Splendour in the Grass??

 

[MiguelM]

Some massive games to come this round now.

 

[Squeaky]

Grimes got one.
Anyhow, very Richmondy again!

 

[andleanback]

Imagine if heppell said who cares in the on ground interview after he just cost his side a win

That would have been the most incredible comeback. Arguably better than '01 given how big the lead was at 3 quarter time.

Comfortably top 3 of all time (Ash McGrath for Brisbane against Geelong in his 200th)

 

[eth-dog]

Also, Freo's 2019 and 202 drafts are absolute gems

Serong, Young, Henry (academy but still) and Frederick
Chapman, O'Driscoll, Walker, Western (both academy too but still) and Treacy

Very excited about their draft last year as well.

How far behind were we??
The Melbourne ANZAC Day one where Wangers kicked a goal near the end was one of the best I can recall (‘92??). I think we were down by 52 points at 3/4 time. Still don‘t think that is the record though

 

[The Devils Advocate]

More like Noah Wareness.

74-27 at 3qtr time.
