Preview Round 18, Richmond vs Hawthorn @ MCG - Fri 31 Jul 7:50pm

[TheTigerArmy]

vickery is a hard match up could see him kick 3. dusty or lids will bob up for 2-3 lennon should kick 2. Lloyd can hit the scoreboard. cotch will goal as well. just cant kick that many points against the poo and wee's

conca coming in frees up our forward line..give Dusty and lids more time up forward...

Will be interesting to see how you guys go, a lot of quality and improvement on last years model (almost half the side has changed) but id say our ins are pretty good to (compared to what is out).

Best of luck on Friday - Hawks by 5 goals.

 

[SpudsLoveChild]

We cant compete 1 on 1 for leg or ball speed so having 1 less tall makes sense. It just means our mids in the fwd line must kick goals.

Have to apply pressure like crazy. The speed that they catch and release the ball to the next player is so slick.

 

[living_in_syd]

so many spuds last year

well everyone except for jackson is still on that list.

griff and edwards are big outs for us

however we still have lloydd on our team :/

would be itersting to see hawks in and outs from last year. they are pretty much at full strength atm which is scary

 

[Koze]

Actually backing the umpires this week. They are under major scrutiny and they wouldn't want to mess up during the Grand Final preview.

["The Roar Is Back"]

can someone do a comparo of this side to the one we had against the tassie whoreks last year

who is in and who is out

lazy campaigner

 

[living_in_syd]

scoreboard pressure is key. we need to kick straight early to get some confidence and stay in it.

otherwise they will kick their ussual amount of goals and run away with it

 

[Michaels]

Gees their changes are bloody good.

As good as our best footy is, the Hawks are going to need to be off by 15-20% if we are any chance .

Their depth is amazing.

Glad to see Conca back.

Tigers by 13

What! No McInerney? Why not play all of the three stooges? Could have even had McBernie come out of retirement to be the emergency ump also. We are no chance now :S

 

[Stevi_Tigers]

so clarko's 250th as hawks coach we know what that means

 

[docko911]

Geez our team was bad against the Hawks last year... They could still be our bunnies!

 

[docko911]

so clarko's 250th as hawks coach we know what that means

Hawthorn won't score?

 

[Lsta062]

I think Hardwick did good with the changes. Apparently, a tall forward line doesn't work well against Hawthorn according to some Hawks supporters, so it makes sense why McBean didn't come in.

Conca is really needed here - I think he laid the most tackles last year. We need that sort of physical player against Hawthorn.

Vickery in was a no-brainer for Griffiths. Vickery is good with set shots, so he could teach the boys a thing or two about being accurate.

As the days come by, I start to feel more confident about this game. I don't know why though, because nothing about their team vs our team should give me any kind of confidence other than Alex Rance, Deledio, Vickery and Maric missing from the team the last time we played them

 

[Nostradumbass]

He wasn't a great player until his last year or two. Don't forget he won our bnf. Was fantastic that year.

He had a turning circle of a cruise liner.

 

[theflea]

Stevich and Chamberlain

As long as Mollison is no where near us im happy.

 

[Gunit]

I wonder who Mitchell will knee this week.

 

[theflea]

Have to apply pressure like crazy. The speed that they catch and release the ball to the next player is so slick.

The trigger from winning the ball, and taking off is crazy.

 

[smasha]

The trigger from winning the ball, and taking off is crazy.

Have to be right onto em.Run like ferrets down a rabbit hole. They have rushed in home grown hero (lol) Frawley for this game.

 

[Nostradumbass]

I wonder who Mitchell will knee this week.

Goodes

 

[Stevi_Tigers]

I wonder who Mitchell will knee this week.

vickjesus who will knock him 8 rows back in the great southern stand
