Preview Changes v Sydney

[tazaa]

Sigh
You made me go down this rabbit hole KC

So from Round 13 1990 through to Round 11 1994. We are 8 from 8. And not just 8 wins, these were proper beltings.
Average winning margin for us was 57 points lol


Then from round 15 1995 through to round 19 2025 we have met on 46 occasions.
The record is 11W and 34 losses. 1 Draw. 11 wins in 30 years. Its bad. Its very ****ing bad.


Only saving grace is finals are 2-2 with us getting the chocolates in 1996 and in Goodes last AFL game. That's all we have over them.

**** Sydney's mum
seriously

 

[The Nostradamus]

Papley, Blakey and Heeney worry me.

the papley matchup worries me most

kont and fos i think can get the job done on the other 2 to at least limit their influence

In my head it's 2-1 in finals? Or am I going crazy?

In terms of margins off the top of my head the 1996 GF (43pts) is our biggest win in 30 years over them?

They have deadset terrorised us. I was at the 2000 demolition up there where they made a Pagan side look completely inept. Was a fantastic commute back to the Sydney burbs that night.

[Devington]

Loved Clarko's words on Kerch and X

 

[Event Horizon]

Just realised Sydney's onfield ownership of us goes right back to the Pagan days.

At the peak of our Carey days they upset us in 1995 and from then on have beaten us in many legitimate and less than legitimate ways ever since.

Thankfully we got them on the big day but no matter where we are on the ladder they usually knock us over.

They are to us as we are to Richmond.

True. But we also did beat them in the 2015 final which was briefly pleasing

Those two finals exceptions were pretty special.

I knew I disliked them and this walk down memory lane is making me see why, so thanks guys.

 

[CharlieMortdecai]

They were scored against heavily as well.

Expect them to tighten up on that this week of course

You might have forgotten the 2008 elimination final, where we went into the final round flying high only needing to beat a bottom 4 Poort at home for a top 4 finish. Not sure why you would want to forget a 76 point flogging at the MCG followed by a clinical elimination by the Swines in Sydney, but you do you.

 

[The Nostradamus]

Time for xerri to show he is the best ruck in the comp by demolishing Grundy

 

[TennisPlayerAndy]

We’ll always have the 40 point 3/4 time comeback in Archer’s 250th.

Oh ffs yeh did forget that.

Was in Edinburgh Walkabout looking forward to a good day.

Didn't go that way.

 

[shimaburnsgrieg]

Was he. Which game was it, S? I always thought he only missed out doe to injury.

Round 7 last year when Clarko dropped both Corr and Logue.

I remember the day in mid nighties when they torched us at Princess Park.

Archers 250th? Greatest Night in our history. There I said it.

 

[shimaburnsgrieg]

Heeney will give Jy a bath mate. Jy cant play on Heeney, Heeney is too strong, too quick, too smart, just physically dominant in every facet compared to Jy

It has to be FOS to Heeney and Jy to McInerny.

 

[DuckYeah]

Fos to heeney

FOS is more fit to play on Heeney however he’ll still be ripped apart. You need multiple players to hit Heeney

 

[Chip Scab1]

It has to be FOS to Heeney and Jy to McInerny.

Jy to McInerny.

LDU v Heeney at CBs, LMAC when he's forward.

 

[shimaburnsgrieg]

who is our matchup for papley and rosas?

zurhaar and lmac?
daniel?

this is when i wish hardeman was in the side

By the looks of the line up we have selected I think we are assuming they are both late outs.

 

[DuckYeah]

It has to be FOS to Heeney and Jy to McInerny.

Lol we play 1v1 mate. It wont work. Im almost willing to bet that the last Q V geelong will be the entire game

Yeh the 2008 elimination final when we shat the bed in Grants 300th vs Port the week prior.
Was the beginning of the end of Laidley's days as North coach.

Those two finals exceptions were pretty special.

I knew I disliked them and this walk down memory lane is making me see why, so thanks guys.

I am very observant of our record over Richmond since 1993. Something to be proud of.
I just didn't know how bad it was. 11 wins since I have been old enough to go to the footy.

 

[muttley45]

They love handball chains through the centre corridor, guard it, and pressure the ball carrier, the turnovers will come

Jason McCartney comeback game for me

Great win in Archer's 250th. Favourite come back.


So the 1996 game at Princes Park was my first ever game of football.
Paul Roos 300th game. Plugger kicked 10. We got revenge in the grand final but they belted us that day.

And you just made realise that I have never seen us beat Sydney live. All our wins have been in NSW.
I was at the Drawn game in 2008 at Docklands. But never seen a win.

In fact unless you attended the game at the MCG in 1998 or the game at the Telstra Dome in 2007 - these are the only 2 home and away games in Melbourne we have beaten Sydney. Grim.

The “Mason Wood” game…
