You’d expect then that if we struggle this year Lethers and co will have a big say about having a softer fixture next year. It’s bullshit that Port get kissed on the dick for finishing top of the ladder and we get shafted for scraping into the 8.

No he won’t. Unlike other clubs we don’t whinge about the fixture. Just get on with it.

Sometimes the AFL site come up with some very clever headlines.

I disagree. Lethers won’t take shit like previous administrations. He’ll definitely make sure we’re not being pushed around in all areas, including the fixture.

Who the **** is this Warner campaigner?!

Their turnaround in 12 months has been remarkable. Hope they don't drop their bundle in the second half, it would be the win of the season so far.

Imagine beating two top four from last year on their own deck in three rounds? Crazy.

Everything going right for them. Reminds me of our 2017 game against the Tigers.

Must’ve been a while since the Tigers lost at the G?

They look like the “outside top 8” team to make the top 4 this year. They have done very well in retaining their older core allowing the likes of Heeney, Mills, Blakely, McCartin, etc to develop. Now those blokes have got 50-100 games under their belt & they have also included some young elite talent. The list balance looks pretty damn good. Sydney always seem to do it well although they have a lot of luck with the academy.

Good shout, 2018 prelim v Collingwood??

Sydney are actually entertaining too, nothing like the Roos era.

They lost to hawthorn last year.

Is Richmond’s Tom Lynch the most overrated key forward in the game ? He has one good game about every 6 or 7 weeks but that’s it . Today at half time against the Swans he has had 2 kicks and 1 handpass and kick one point .
The Tigers are 40 points down at half time and he has hardly been sighted . How many times can you remember he stood up and won a game for Richmond ?
. I have no facts to back up my claim but I never let facts get in the way of a good comment anyway lol .

 

[Plugger35]

That Hickey bloke would be handy right now, playing the game of his life against the Tigers, one of the reasons the Swans are dominating.

 

[Brains Trust66]

Probably see Lynch play a blinder of a second half now lol

He’s always been good for one or two of those games a year.

He doesn’t care about these mickey mouse matches

 

[George]

Well that was a clear mark by Nankervis

Shit decision but boy I’m glad it happened. This strikes me as the type of game Richmond lose now but make up for it in the finals.

North’s percentage is 37 point something . I wonder what the lowest percentage by the end of the season is ? I’m pretty sure we must have that record lol.

Gold Coast or GWS early years surely

We had 18 percent in 1899 I’m pretty sure.

 

[LiterallyNobody]

I’m wrong. 28 percent.

Yes on lowest percentage we hold the top 6 places, and out of the top 10 we have 7 places total. Starts at 22.3% to 41.88% over those 6 places.

and possibly Kennedy from other clubs . Their academy must be going great . Do they have some big advantage over other clubs or is it just great recruiting ?
