He's usually bad at kicking when the pressure is on him otherwise he usually delivers. I mean he did kick 5 in a 50 point loss on sunday.

Swan will be back this week unfortunately.
His 200th game and he will want a win badly.

Jack will be tagged by half the Collingwood team lol.

Should be a cracking game... Tigers are up and about having beaten 3 sides that absolutely will not feature in September, Collingwood have only faced one strong opponent and lost badly... we get to learn a little about both sides this weekend. I can't pick it. Good for football though, hope the Tigers don't fade away like Essendon and Carlton have done of late.

 

[Rodney Dangerfield]

That was quite a spectacular fade yourselves on Sunday. Might have trumped us.

50/50 game.
As much a test of where the pies actually are as it is for the tigers.
Richmond are up and about, young, fast and showing some skill.
Their fans deserve to be positive, pies need to draw a line in the sand and show us they still have what it takes, we haven't done anything this year worth talking us up.

Fair post.

Some of us Tigers fans think we're a chance, mainly due to the Pies missing a few decent players. At full strength, I'm sure most of us sane supporters think the Pies should be odds on favs. But fact is, the Pies are being forced to fill a few holes. But will be expecting them to breath fire this week after the Hawks loss. I just feel if we can withstand that initial onslaught, we might be able to get moving in the second half, and come out on top.

On 2013 form, the sides are pretty evenly matched. Should be a good game, can't wait.

I'm obviously biased, so Tigers by 12 points.

This game has too much hype for a team that's made the finals less than Fitzroy since 1983.

Just another game for Collingwood.

I see the other team you support is Liverpool.
A team that has not won the premier league in 20 odd years.
Does this mean that the game between Manchester United and Liverpool is not as hyped?

Not a chance.

It's a big game this weekend and for good reason too.

Big supporter bases, 2 traditional clubs.

Good pot-shot at Richmond though. God knows we don't see enough of it.

Sorry I can't really tell the difference between the main board and the bay these days!

If Ben reid is right to go he will get Jack as he towels Jack every time

That's nice of him.
Jack gets sweaty when he kicks a bag.

Yeah that 1 time was just astounding

 

[KrakFiend]

That was quite a spectacular fade yourselves on Sunday. Might have trumped us.

Yeah, recently successful perennial PF/GF team fading away in one half of football = the last 30 seasons Richmond has dished up

Lets not talk about the last 50 years then

(1990, 2010 vs 1967,1969,1973,1974,1980)

On that logic collingwood is extremely over rated for a team thats only won 2 premierships in over 50 years dont you think

 

[biggiemediums]

and neither are you as we know know very well but we whipped the Hawks last year.

Richmond actually play well agaisnt good teams.

I'm not arguing I think it will be a great game I was just replying to the "did you have issues last week?" smart arse comment when clearly we did lol.

 

[Rodney Dangerfield]

4 flags in the last 77 years for the "greatest club in Australian Sport"
Absolute farce.
In Reality Collingwood won most of their flags when it was just local park footy.

Melbourne made the finals not long ago. Play them then. What's the first 25 years of that period got anything with our current club anyway? The current club has a rebuilding history of 3 years.

Good to see other clubs are starting to hate us again rather than pity us. Hopefully they will soon despise us.

I don't pity the Richmond Football club. I pity the supporters for actually thinking their team is any good.

Pies by 87 points.
