I wish spud would just shut up. I love this comment:

Tigers, Crows prepare for 'mini-final'
The pressure is mounting on Richmond and Adelaide, with Friday night's clash between the struggling clubs described as a "mini-final" by Tigers coach Danny Frawley.
Richmond has one win from four matches while the Crows are the only team in the competition without a win.
Frawley says it is a vital game for both clubs.
"It will be a good game of football won't it? That's why you play," he said.
"The pressure's high, probably a little bit higher than we want it to be.
"We thought we'd be in a hell of a lot better position than we are after four games but we're not, we can't do much about that.
"We've just got to get on the front foot and be positive and react in the right way."
Frawley said he is not phased by constant speculation about his coaching future.
A loss to Adelaide would increase the pressure on Frawley but he said the media scrutiny does not bother him.
"They don't hurt at all because I suppose if you worry about sticks and stones, you're going to become reactive but, as I said, a lot of it [the criticism] is warranted," he said.
