Preview Round 19 Richmond vs GWS @ MCG - 4:40pm Sat 02/08/2014

[Equus]

In a season like no other in recent times Richmond look poised to do the unthinkable and press for a finals berth after a 3-10 start.

Early in the piece the Richmond faithful nearly turned Punt Road upside down looking for answers but in the last month the coaching staff and players have found them. Going on a winning streak that resembled last year’s form the Tigers look set to continue that on this weekend with a win over GWS.

Greater Western Sydney however have put the Tigers close to the sword in recent times and have looked very dangerous this season. Like Melbourne on occasions they have been right in it to push up their wins tally but been unable to take the points. A season pretty much without out of form forward Jeremy Cameron young gun Jonathan Patton has stepped up to give the Giants fans something to scream about.

With the Tigers without Ty Vickery due to suspension and the retirement of barometer Jake King the Tigers set up still looks dangerous. In a rare patch of form and with the knowledge that they cannot afford to drop one I feel they will have enough in the tank to push the young men in orange too hard.

Greater Western Sydney will be playing for pride and will see the Tigers as a opportunity to land another win late in season 2014.

My tip however, Richmond by 40.

Booooooooöö

 

[Gunit]

Could be the first game played in the snow.

 

[Groupie_]

They almost beat the Hawkers at the G.

 

[fumbler]

Ohhhhh after last weeks effort i can see the ball boys collecting rent in the first quarter.

But on the other hand we are a sucky bunch of sucks this season and will most likely lose horribly.

 

[Tiger71]

Hmm we have played them away the last two times for 20 plus goal wins. This could get ugly

 

[Madtiger2006]

Jack might get 10

Event:

Headline:

The Dud:
Stat less Tom charged with Fraud

Say that Again:

Vickery Strikes again

Just a week after "King hitting" "the Glass Jaw". The Vickery wrath has continued, this time he has lashed out at a innocent unsuspecting chair. After the wild beast couldn't contain his emotion after the tiges emphatic win at the G. Experts believe, he should have the book thrown at him. With some suggesting a life ban was required. After this unspeakable act of taking the life of innocent chair, who's only goal in life was to allow people to sit on him.

 

[Tigerbob]

No Vickery, no Richmond.

 

[sante]

The return of Grigga

Interesting stat - We've never lost to them

Doctors say the chair may never walk again.

If it weren't for the majesty of Dan Connors we may have!

The return of Grigga

Tim Clarke says he has more things to work on over the next couple of weeks before returning to the senior side.

 

[Hipster Doofus]

Should win, 8 goals.

 

[Tigerbob]

Really need another win like the last time to build a percentage.

In saying that, it's not an easy game. Last time they were off, they won't be again.

Just take a win.

 

[Groupie_]

Last 100 point win on the G was vs Fitzroy

 

[Calcium Man]

Bit nervous for this game. Last time we played them they were horrible but they've shown some ticker since then.

Miles to show GWS what've missed out on.

 

[captain cotch 9]

I was more nervous last time.
They were s**t but we wernt in a great run of form either.
Im tipping us to win by 70+. If it rains 40+

 

[Madtiger2006]

Let's hope port beat coll and wc beat adel. Doubt wc will win though. Those 2 results would be great though plus a big win to us

 

[Groupie_]

I would be very surprised if port beat Collingwood even though Collingwood are s**t

Port playing very bad at the moment and the game is at the g which makes me doubt them even more

 

[prodigy1311]

Danger Game! No complacency please, just hard tough footy and we'll beat them by plenty..!

 

[DrMike]

Rance has no one to shut down, stick him in the forward line
