Stadium Information

 

[juss]

Biggest prelim in a long time

 

[Adz]

Finally something resembling a full squad against them.

Hearing Dusty in doubt too.


Pies by 18.

 

[Brent24]

Not expecting to win. But we're going in massive underdogs and we've got a free shot at making the GF. Season will be a success regardless.

 

[HeavyPop]

Does it crack 100k?

 

[WhyAlwaysMe]

We haven't had a Carlton over Essendon type upset in a prelim for 19 years. I reckon we're due.

 

[DemonZombie_001]

We haven't had a Carlton over Essendon type upset in a prelim for 19 years. I reckon we're due.

It is possible. Richmond have been running at maybe 60% over the last several weeks it seems. Which in itself is scary.

 

[Waca Jr]

Finally something resembling a full squad against them.

Hearing Dusty in doubt too.


Pies by 18.

You had a full squad first time around and still lost by almost 50

 

[TiggerMan22]

Pies with the +102 free kick differential for the year. Tiges with -119.

 

[dean33]

Pies would hope to play a bit better than tonight if they want to win. Grimes to blanket degoey, dusty to run riot. Tigers by 34

 

[captain cotch 9]

Pies with the +102 free kick differential for the year. Tiges with -119.

The only thing i see in that is that our players go to hard sometimes and are careless.
Definatley not a bad thing

Pies also have been playing that relentless pressure style footy tho. Really cant see any reason theres 221 frees between them.

 

[Frank Gallagher]

Rapt we won a final, Pies are the real deal folks, may not win it this year but look out next.

 

[Sweeetleftfoot]

You had a full squad first time around and still lost by almost 50

And 2 rotations down for half a game

 

[Brad Goodman]

This joint will be unbearable in the likely event the Tigers get up

 

[PHX]

It is possible. Richmond have been running at maybe 60% over the last several weeks it seems. Which in itself is scary.

Doing alright for a team going going at 60%.

Collingwood has proven they can stick with us for a while. They'll have some confidence.

 

[Waca Jr]

And 2 rotations down for half a game

Cry me a river. * me. Gone in dry on you blokes twice. Will happen for a third time .i wasn't aware the pies had injuries. s**t is getting real old

 

[Tony Harrison]

Gonna be some quality s**t fights and pissing contests in here this week.

 

[HTT]

Does it crack 100k?

Don’t think so. Would need full MCC attendance which is nearly impossible outside the GF.

 

[Godspeed]

With Dusty sore and Collingwood having no injuries, can't see it being close.

Tiges by 76.

 

[Ron The Bear]

Hopefully Monday has been reserved for the top team's members to buy tickets. The challenger can have the scraps on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday.

 

[Tony Harrison]

This joint will be unbearable in the likely event the Tigers get up

*unbearable for you.

Neutrals gonna hate it either way.
Probably barracking for you guys until they remember you're just as bad as us

 

[TigerTime_89]

Reckon Collingwood are a great team, they are definitely in this up to there necks. Couple of Tigers injury rumours around with Dusty and Rioli.
If both were out it would tip it in Collingwood's favour I reckon.
