Preview Round 14, 2024 : Richmond v Hawthorn, 4:35pm Sat 15th June MCG

[BlueWaterHawk]

Tried to get tickets this afternoon. Only a few left in the bleachers sadly. Oh well, guess the TV will have to do. It's going to be a huge crowd!

Last opportunity to see the lads live till the Collingwood game for me and the family

I hope the boys play their best football and put on a show, Meek and Watson in would be a huge boost

 

[moginie]

Apart from the massive crowd, first game under lights this season for many of the boys? Could be a factor.

Doubt it.

Both games in Adelaide were under lights during the second half.

Do we bring in Maginness to tag Dusty

I was thinking Weddle might be the perfect option. Not so much a tag but a defensive run with role. Take him when he goes forward, follow him into the midfield.

Would be a great test.

Has the athleticism, speed & endurance to follow him everywhere!! Only strength is the issue but who has ever had the strength to go against him doesn't have any baggage against him so it might be a good challenge for Josh!!

Dusty won't be chasing him going the other way too, that's for sure.

Wouldn't want to waste him on Dusty.

 

[HedgeFund]

Am I the only one thinking the hype of Dusty’s 300th so early in the week will be detrimental to Richmond?

Dusty could not give a toss about his 300th. It won’t make a difference to the players. It’s all for the fans.

 

[triple treat]

Bartlett is their greatest

Next 5/6 would be dusty , dyer, hart , Bourke, Roy wright, Titus

…..perhaps Ian Stewart barrot clay richo after that

Richo?

 

[The Chad and I]

First game this season for which I have strong expectations of a victory.

We have clearly set ourselves above the bottom group of teams, and it's time for us to emphasise that with some strong victories over them to bring our percentage back over 100%.

Will need to win to the tune of 136 for that to happen!

 

[TylerDurden]

Tbh I’ve got a terrible feeling about this game. Hope I’m wrong.

I get it. If Dusty jams through a couple of early ones, the joint will be heaving. Will be hard for a young side to cope with that sort of pressure.

 

[ahhhhhh]

Prepare to be disappointed. No matter how good we are these yellow and black campaigners destroy us.

 

[KermitJagger]

Nah, he hasn't. Dusty is obviously a legend of the game and his finals performances alone are all the evidence you'd ever need.

You sure love to unfairly hate on some all-time great players, Naicos, Goodes, GAJ, Dusty to name a few.

Absolutely painful. If tall poppy syndrome were a man.

[Sturty]

IMHO we will stomp them by 40+
They aren't that good, won 2 games all year.
Our midfield will torch theirs

 

[threesixpio]

Nothing surer I will watch the game and have breakfast on the morning of the game

Lock it in

Yep we must destroy them

Maddening how often he’d get away with putting his hand in opposition faces.

 

[peetoo]

On dusty, seemed to be the first Brownlow recipient for a few years who wasn’t a bit of a ball butcher.
In fact an elite kick (but everyone knows that)

 

[OnTheRocks]

I'd luv to see Watson in, big game, big crowd on the big stage. He wants to be a star? He wants everyone to know he's the 'Wiz'?
Get him in!

I’m sure if you asked him, he wouldn’t want any of those things, he’d just want play good footy in a good side.

He had that first round against the Dons.
I’d have him in as the sub for this game, where he could either kick some junk time goals or give us a spark if game is close.
