Right now, Richmond deserve to be premiership favorites

[Adz]

Touched up the Dockers, Swans, Port and the Pies.
Right now, their best is better than anyone, with perhaps only Hawthorn to rival them and their recent form against the Hawks is great.

Remind me of Brisbane 2001.
Looking at their draw they will win all of their remaining games and finish top 2.

Discuss.

 

[BoxMatrix]

Yeah... no.

Way too inconsistent. Some very overrated players in their team.

 

[PAFC_1870]

Oh seriously **** off.

Stupid school holidays.

 

[Forward Press]

And yet they lost to the Eagles at home.

No.

 

[tangolikelama]

Port favourites for the spoon as well!

 

[Happy Mastenator]

I liked last Friday night when they never looked like winning despite playing at home against an interstate team. If they are flag favorites there is something wrong with every other team

 

[Fyfetheknife]

Yeah as mentioned they are way too inconsistent. Brilliant against Freo and the Swans. Poor against the Eagles, and others.
Lost to Melbourne as well. Start to play consistent footy then maybe top 4 is possible.

 

[YES! YES! YES!]

Nah. Freo, Hawks and Swans still are.

All have much larger/tackle friendly bodies than the Tigers. They will crunch Richmond out of the season if they have to during the finals.

 

[juss]

5th best side in the comp

 

[YES! YES! YES!]

Oh seriously **** off.

Stupid school holidays.

Hey come on! Was there really a need to post that?

 

[funk44]

Bigfooty at its finest right here

 

[wcadams88]

I like how you're adding port and Collingwood in there

 

[PAFC_1870]

Hey come on! Was there really a need to post that?

Ok. It's bed time. Is that better?

 

[Morris Major]

Half the league can be flag favourites if you judge them by only their best games

 

[MeisterBot]

Won't get near it until they bridge the gap between their best and their worst, which has been a problem for a few years now. But their best is very good and capable of knocking off any team.

 

[I Lost My Keays]

I think they deserve to be 9th to be honest

 

[giggler99]

lol what you smoking OP? they'll be lucky to make top four let alone win a premiership, they are good but not premiership material yet.

 

[NewMelbournian]

Richmond are not as good or as bad as people above me have said. They are not certainties to win everything. They are not 5th best (or worse). Right now they look good for the top 4 and anyone who finishes the season in the top 4 is always a genuine contender.

 

[AstonSouffle]

If you can say with conviction that they won't put in a performance again like last weeks against the Eagles. Then of course, but we both know that's not going to happen.

 

[Barry_Badrinath]

On the front page we have:

"are Collingwood flag threats?"
"Are West Coast the real deal?"
"Richmond deserve to be premiership favourites"

Meanwhile Hawthorn just keep chugging away in the background.

 

[Supercoach Bargain]

Ray Chamberlain Likes this.

 

[YES! YES! YES!]

And yet they lost to the Eagles at home.

No.

Yeah, but that's just one game.

Don't think Tigers are favourites though. Need more muscle/tackle power to match it with the likes of Freo, Swans and Hawthorn.

 

[Power Raid]

whatever it is, I'm enjoying it

 

[AdamE89]

Not when they lose to Melbourne and Bulldogs

 

[Papa G]

Brisbane for mine
