Preview Changes & prematch discussion Rd8 vs Richmond

[ferball]

The only thing luckier than retaining Dusty, was the Tigs going on to win the flag.

Wouldn't have happened at all if the AFL hadn't rorted Geelong out of a home final.

I have a question for the Bigfooty board. With all the talk about Dusty coming to North before, what actually happened to Phillyroo? Is he still around or did he actually delete his account because of a bet? I really enjoyed his posts and optimism throughout that whole time!

Good question, I've wondered the same. Could be floating around under another name?

To be fair, the Tigs supporters this week are less painful than the flogs from Sydney last week.

To be fair... naturally.

The 5 or 6 good ones make for good discussion, but by christ you need to wade nostril deep though shit to find them.

Just awful. They seem to also have a higher than average proportion of users that insist on attending other boards and offering their "wisdom" as well. The main board exists for a reason - so we know where 90% of the rubbish is going to be posted.

I'm not even worried about this game. Richmond are overrated and their flag win is up there with woewodin winning a brownlow.

It's laughable that puma had to step in to save them. The AFL allowed it because of the auskick ad and they didn't want a bunch of flog supporters tearing a hole in the ozone layer after simultaneously melting 70k memberships. 1.4 million for dusty or a young LDU...no contest.

North by 4 goals.

Looking like we dodged a bullet with Dusty, he's right off the boil now.

Tigers fans are like 30 year old virgins who've finally discovered sex

Lol, that's exactly the metaphor I was thinking too,

As good as 2017? No.
Off the boil? Bit of a stretch, hes averaging 25 disposals a game and kicked 13 goals to round 7. He keeps that average up and he kicks 40 goals in the home and away season.

Doesn't look like the same effort is there as last year

Got the coin

Got the contract

Might not be as hungry, no one but Dusty and the RFC would know that.
It is however hard to maintain your peak form. Every player has a career best year and its likely 2017 was his.

Like I said though 25 touches a game and 13 goals so far as well as creating goals for others, that walks in to any teams best 5 players.

Until this week where he'll rip us a new one

Anyone who still believes Martin stayed out of loyalty is a genuine certified organic Nuffy. He was Max Gaaaaawn until Richmond pulled a Visy style shifty with Puma - I’m staggered the validity of it hasn’t been looked in to further.

Nominated dusty for the keridge this week.

Carey never had shit form, just injuries

 

[muttley45]

No pressure on us this week, i like it when we are underdogs. Amazingly similar situation to pre Hawks/Sydney games, hope for same result.

 

[NaturalDisaster]

Dusty’s form hasn’t been shit, just hasn’t been as dominate as last year.

He has been good apart from his first three quarters against Freo:

Who invited the Richmond flogs?

I miss him too. Latest revelations suggest he was right all along. Maybe, it’s time for a “Please Come Back Phillyroo” thread?!

Anyway should be a cracking game, your mob has suprised me this year and you are a decent chance to produce an upset.

Dusty is playing even better this year than last, notwithstanding his loose, careless performance in a 70+ point victory. We’d be fools to think otherwise. Richmond are playing better than they played last year, despite the “fake” protestations to the contrary by some of their fans. If we manage to knock them off this week, we would be flagging a tilt at late September. Which would be amazing really, given we have “no depth, no midfield, hardly any A-graders, not a destination club...” Have I forgotten something?

Beating Richmond doesn't qualify as an "upset" around these parts.

We've been handing you your arse for the best part of 40 years.
