    AFL TAB Refuse to Pay out $150k pay-out to Maths Wiz Uni Student who out-smarted their system

    https://www.heraldsun.com.au/news/victoria/monash-university-maths-whiz-fights-for-150k-dusty-martinbilly-slater-multibet-winnings/news-story/0e28df2f25e24a008133be6342ae0028 Definitely makes me think twice about using TAB for the Melbourne Cup. They'll try find every excuse not to pay you...

    Could a 23-year hoodoo be broken on Tuesday night?

    The last time Richmond was on top of the ladder at the end of a home and away round was in Round 12 1995. The instance before that was back in 1982. With GWS suffering a draw, the only thing stopping us from claiming top position this week is 2.2 percentage points and a victory against the...

    Where are we going to finish?

    With a run home against the Hawks, Cats, Dockers and Saints, where do you think we'll finish on the ladder? 4th means an away preliminary final against Adelaide, 3rd would likely be an away final against the Cats at (KP?) Or 2nd would be a home game at the G. 5th would see us play the...

    Player Watch #7: Ben Lennon

    First round pick coming into his second season and can't even get a game ahead of first year players such as Menadue and C. Ellis. When he played in the seniors this year he has looked fumbly and a bit lost and even at VFL level he isn't dominating. He only had 17 possessions this week in the...

    Opinion Run and carry limited by our high defensive press

    The biggest change of our game plan and the one crucial factor of our game which is harming our game is our run and carry. I have not seen in a month a player take a run through the middle or down the wing and take a good few bounces. Last year we used to open up the game from the back line and...

    Opinion Players Reinventing Themselves

    I think a few of our best 22 and other players are going to have to take a step back and ask themselves if what they are doing is enough for the club. I am quite worried that we have too many one-track ponies in our team and that the future of AFL is leading towards players who can play multiple...

    Will Griffiths Play?

    We arrive at our first individual conundrum in this year's pre-season. Griffiths is playing decent football, but it is incredibly difficult to find a spot for him in our seniors. Griffiths is proving to be a very handy second ruck option and competitive up forward. With an estimated guess, our...

    Preview Friday March 7 - Richmond v Essendon @PUNT ROAD OVAL....or Craigieburn

    http://www.afl.com.au/news/2013-12-16/wa-preseason-feast Surely there couldn't be enough capacity to hold not only an AFL pre-season game with Richmond but to be playing Essendon as well? Would be a great atmosphere, might need to block of the roads to get some more seats going. Tigers by 80.

    Opinion Ricky Petterd

    I don't get the hate for Petterd on this board. He should be spoken about in the same light as Chaplin, Houli, Grigg and Maric as Hartley specials. But the way some people speak about him is as though he wouldn't make our VFL team. Let's recap his year, we pick him up for nothing in the rookie...

    Preview Round 13 2013 - Richmond v Western Bulldogs

    Coming into this game there are pretty high expectations that we’ll win this one pretty easily and comfortably. Let’s hope that the boys don’t have this attitude because our biggest enemy this week is complacency. We are in ripping form, confidence is high and the ‘f’ word is circling around...

    Preview Round 9 - Richmond vs Essendon - Dreamtime at the G'

    Richmond v Essendon Both teams have started this year to quite a high standard and unlike its recent predecessors, Dreamtime at the G will be a game between two quality sides. Essendon has shown that they are truly in the mix this year and it would not be surprising to see them finish the year...

    Alright, well I know it's extremely premature but TAC cup is around the corner and talking about the juniors is something we all love to do on this board. So to get us started, I'll mention a few players whom will probably be available around our first round pick, assuming we keep it, and...

    Opinion Small Defenders

    Which small defenders would you have in our best 22? Currently, our backline will look as such with the talls. There's even a possibility of Griffiths. B: Grimes Chaplin HB: Rance This leaves at most four spots, but more likely 3. Our small/medium defenders are such. Morris Ellis...

    With the fantasy season around the corner, I thought it would be good to have a thread dedicated to the Richmond players for interested fantasy players. For me, Brett Deledio if a back is a lock, and if not, depending on his price, I might consider as a midfielder due to his consistency...

    Sword Art Online

    This is a new Japanese anime and has already released 18 episodes. I must say, I'm not an anime fan, but this is by far the greatest show I have watched in a while. I am not of singular opinion though, as IMDB has this rated at 9.5, the highest of any movie/show of any kind. From wiki: In...

    Opinion 2013 Fixture

    The fixture will be announced in approximately two weeks. What has Richmond requested from next year's draw? Will we get the horrible run like last year in the beginning? Will the AFL give us any expansion teams twice? For me, We'll play Collingwood, Carlton, Essendon, Port Adelaide and...

    Opinion Ben Griffiths

    This may be a bit far-fetched for some, but it's always good to have some discussion and debate on this board, but I believe that if Griffiths has a breakout year in 2013, it will severely increase our chance of competing in finals. Our key posts in the seniors will likely be lined up as such...

    Competitions Richmond Board Phantom Draft

    I thought it would be fun in the lead up to the draft to do a phantom draft for the Richmond board. The posters who would like to participate pick a team and they become that team's head of drafting. So basically, they will choose the selection for that team. First come, first served. It would...

    Lifting a player up on the goal line to rush a goal

    Is there a specific rule from prohibiting this tactic? Similar to line-outs in union, players lift a player on the goal-line to touch a ball which would normally be a goal. I know it would be looked down upon but boy, wouldn't it save a lot of goals. Thoughts?
