Preview Demons v Richmond- Official Preview (general match discussion)

[syl]

You wouldn't tag Magner, there's no point.

Anywho, I hope we can have a real stoush in the middle. A battle between the two lowest clearance sides in the AFL!

From the live chat, this should make you a bit happier.

When asked about having no run and carry at all this year:

Hi DJ, Bennell's form was poor last week. We hope Davey will give us some spark this week. We haven't gone away from run and carry, but we've overcorrected our game style too much and we need to focus on bringing some run and carry back into our game. Aaron

Trengove then?

Trengove then?

He's the obvious one, considering with Sylvia out we have no other good outside mids at the mo.

After the bounce the ball just sits there for the next 120 minutes while both teams fall over each other.

I always joke of bringing a boombox with the benny hill theme on loop with me to the footy. Particularly Melbourne v Richmond games...

I reckon couch is a bit stiff to not even be named in the emergencies.

Here are some good Watts highlights from last year against the Tiges - especially the third one

I like the score in the third one too. Would be happy to see that on the weekend!

knowing our luck, step ladder and small spud will be have break out games

 

[Wonaeamirri33]

I know that was cruel, and needlessly sadistic, but I just can't help laughing

Just a note to everyone that there will be a little more structure regarding the weekly threads such as this.

The idea is a natural migration from one weekly thread to the next. The only ones that will run concurrently are the review, v otes & changes threads which will all close mid week.

Just saw we're paying $4.60 at the TAB. Now i'm not much of a betting man and im not sure how much people think it effects your luck betting on your own team, but i'm damn tempted to just slap $20-30 on that. I reckon we can get back up.

Yeah and after looking at the Richmond Melbourne preview on AFL.com.au, where it states that both teams were up and coming last year, now it is only Richmond!! Didn't realize we were shizen, like the football media think we are... I have been the biggest Melbourne basher over the past 3 months, but still think we are okay.. If we do not beat the Tigers, i still think we will have a similar loss/win ratio at years end!

Things will click soon....Look at the blues tonight! They were hopeless a few years back!!

Line must be tempting, what start are they giving us?

that's exactly the reason i said that we should be playing Aaron in the midfield. we need an outside midfielder that will run and carry.
