I’ll ask one more time.how would they cope when modern teams that were used to the pressure couldnt? it would be all over by 2 nd qtr
Why do they have to cope with modern teams under modern circumstances?
In a fantasy match up, why is it being played under conditions familiar to the modern Richmond side - modern training standards, facilities, rules, tactical advantacements.
Why can’t you answer this question?
If Richmond got parachuted into 2002 rather than Brisbane being parachuted into 2020, suddenly Richmond aren’t as fit because training standards aren’t as good, they get the f*** bashed out of them because they wouldn’t have encountered a team as physical as Brisbane, they are nowhere near as skilled across the park, they face a team who’s worst key forward was Jonathan Brown, they have no exposure to the game styles that they used in 2017-20 because they haven’t been conceived yet.
Please answer the question: why is this hypothetical game played exclusively under a modern, current condition?
