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

"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."

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.

We can't do much about being in a better position after 4 games?

Try winning a game or two spud. You'd be surprised what happens to our position on the ladder.

Rocket science hey??

IITB, If there's one thing worse than Frawley's coaching, its his pathetic explanations after the game, and his woeful optimism before each game.

I was so sick of listening to him last year.

"Yeah we've lost our last game but we ran the ball OK in the 2nd half of the 3rd quarter so we're hopeful we can do that for an entire quarter and then maybe build from there next week and do it for 2 quarters...." yah, yah

I wish he'd shut up as much as I wish he'd pi$$ off
