Preview Richmond vs GWS, Round 2, MCG, 27 March 2022

[biaseddustyfan]

Yeah but Dusty won it himself and Grimes held up the backline. GWS also had their whole defence out that night.

chaos king + kmac/pickett will win it for us

 

[JAKLAUGHING]

But only a 5% chance of being able to satisfy her.

Need the royal sceptre to get to 100%...

 

[Rich01]

no idea

So a bit unfair to put this one on the club then.

 

[Grrr]

We haven't performed well at MCG through last season and round one this season. Our tally during this time I'm pretty sure is 4-7-1.

Whereas last season the Giants played twice at the G and won both including a win against Melbourne.

We'll be right. Up the Tigs!!

GWS lost against Hawthorn at the MCG last year.

But anyways, your point still stands. We haven’t played well there since the beginning of last year so we need to find a way to actually make this a home ground advantage for us. Since the 2017 season, only Sydney have defeated us at the MCG from the non-Victorian sides (in 2021) so we probably don’t want the flood gates to open on that one.

 

[Lsta062]

I feel like Richmond is the sort of club that will win multiple flags in short succession then go into obscurity for years. Every bit of luck is against us.

I feel like Richmond don’t play around with us. Either they finish top 4 and mean serious business or they don’t and give plenty of notice that they’re not doing anything in the season lol.

I kinda appreciate that they don’t waste our time and manage our expectations early if you can call that a positive lol.

 

[captain blood 17]

Mods, it’s gameday. Time to open the thread up. Let’s goooooo

 

[beema limapep]

We are going to get absolutely destroyed today.

Brave yourselves.

 

[beema limapep]

Any player today who doesn't give 100%, shanks kicks or plays like a D grade suburban footballer is gunna get torn to shreds.

No more excuses.

 

[Drunken Wookie]

If last week put a dint in our plans to go the whole season undefeated losing this week might just put it beyond reach.

 

[Lsta062]

It won’t matter how good our forward line looks if both our midfield and defence get thrashed today.

Maybe if things start horribly then we can switch Balta to defence and bring Miller forward.

plays against us.

I just checked and for all the games this guy has missed since his 2015 debut, he hasn’t missed a single Richmond game. This includes his time at Melbourne, Fremantle, and GWS.

 

[fargothegreat]

This should be pinned somewhere

Yeah the RCD potting is getting old when people don't know the full story.

It's the same with people constantly calling for Caddy to play. He won't be in the team until he improves his attitude. Was constantly abusing his less experienced team mates in the VFL for not hitting up his leads. Not Richmond man behaviour.

 

[Lsta062]

if you lose 0-2 there’s like a 10 %chance to make finals , was some data I read about it few weeks back

5 teams were 0-2 last year and 3 of them made finals (GWS, Brisbane, and Essendon). I think there may have been a period of time where teams weren’t making finals after being 0-2, but it’s happened every year since about 2017.

Looking forward to having a close look at Tom Green

Looking at his profile is almost exactly the same size as RCD - 191cm 92kg

 

[best]

gws youngens will run rings around our old goats in the warmer weather

 

[bc27]

I’m usually pretty realistic with tigers.

But I’m saying this right now. Tigers are going to come out pumped as all hell and they’ll win it.

 

[Grrr]

I thought all our old goats were out. Tarrant, Pickcett, Edwards and Lynch the only one's over 30.

I'm usually pretty realistic too.

I think Giants by 24. We will fight and scrap hard though, will just lack class, and always be pushing shit uphill as we will be beaten in the middle all day. I expect to see fight though.

 

[Punt rd end]

GAME DAY MOFO'S

 

[Ma Xiao Long]

The Lilydale train line has busses between Box Hill and Camberwell tomorrow

What the ****? Same thing happened when we played GWS last year

Unpopular view for those who think time stands still.

Would fire him and pay out his contract. Don't want that attitude at the club.
