good test for us. Although I rekon Melb will be after revenge after we knocked them out of finals last year.
Dees by 17 points.
Dees by 17 points.
As per page 3 of the ‘Richmond Supporters’ Almanac’:
“If an opposition team win a game that is not a finals game, tell yourself they have peaked too early. If an opposition team lose a game, tell yourself they are simply pretenders”.

That game was hilarious, our season shot already and i think we were up by 6 or so goals at quarter time thanks to some decent umpiring for a change
Pies supporters going mental at quarter time as I walked up to grab a beer.

3 goal margin. Wasn’t a walloping.

Also no way they’ll be 80k. Only got 77k against Richmond on Anzac Eve when it was our home game

That was 16 points. Not a walloping by my standards

I take it your are just a typical Melbourne fan that drinks Chardonnay and brings your own cheese platter whilst sitting in the mcc yelling “go dees, go no.5”. And you like most Melbourne fans only attend 1 game per year on queens bday.
I also bet that you despise Collingwood and they are you’re most hated team, while Collingwood fans just think that Melbourne is just a minnow club that would not be around if it was not for Eddie and the Collingwood football club allowing Melbourne to have a home game on queens bday.
Think you might be surprised. Public holiday list of neutrals will go as well. The first 3 levels of the afl members reserve are sold out and the mcc will be chockers. Melbourne will bring 35,000 of their fans but it will depend on how many Collingwood fans turn up plus neutrals. My prediction is 81,000.
If Collingwood can bring their 40,000 then all your will need is 5,000 neutrals and bang 80,000.

I'm not going. It's the first Collingwood match in Victoria I will be missing in two years.
I have a uni exam at the same time the match commences

Exactly! I was at that game. Out of the 77,000 50,000 were Richmond fans. If Melbourne had not put in a shocking performance against hawthorn then the game would of been over 80,000

I reckon that timing’s a solid argument for special considerationI'm not going. It's the first game Collingwood match in Victoria I will be missing in two years.

Herpa derp. You'd guess wrong. I like you lot. I use you as examples to my kids of why it is important to get an education and brush your teeth. And don't be sad that you can't afford cheese. I'm sure you can get your wife/sister to make enough of a distraction so you can steal some.
We're in pretty good form at the moment, but I think the Dees will win by 5-6 goals. They're in ripping form and their forward line is very dangerous at the moment.
I hope it's a good game like last years only with fair umpiring this time. The amount of inside 50 frees Melbourne got and how quick the umps were to ping us for HTB was disgraceful. Every neutral supporter in the Game Day thread here thought the umpiring was atrocious as well. None of that this time please.

I actually have very nice teeth thank you. I get asked quite often “why I barrack for Collingwood?”
And actually I had a cheese platter last night from my Melbourne mate it was really nice
In all seriousness I'm going out with a Collingwood supporter. If she saw my last post I wouldn't wake up tomorrow. I think next week will be a cracker. Both sides seem to be evenly matched across all lines, and play a similar brand of football - fast and deadly when it works, and ugly when it doesn't. I think it will be a big test for both clubs, even if it isn't the be all, end all.
And you can believe this if you want or throw it in the bin, but my job is actually as cheese maker. Yeah, I cringed when that fella brought along the platter.

Disagree, I don’t think the margin will be over 4-5 goals either way.
