Training Pre season. Next up a VFL practice game v Williamstown at Arden St 10.30am Sat 17th Mar.

[Jindrrk]

I don't rate Richmond. I only see a North loss on the cards if we take our foot off the pedal and focus on round 1. Ricmond will struggle to make the 8 this year.

Talk about stating the obvious

 

[Jindrrk]

Nielson gets a one year contract = "he's done!!!"

Lol. How about he tore his ACL in his first season and struggled to shake off the injuries. Big men take time and Nielson has shown some promising signs. Not many key position players can run down robbie gray and content with key talls. We need both he and EVW to stay fit. If they can do that they are locks for the future.

Again....talk about stating the obvious...but it was needed

We have the full Richmond team in our side developing....Nielson (Rance) and Zurharr (Martin) so with the rest of our elite team coming through and add in Josh, we have the next 5 premiership wound up.

 

[Groin guru]

Only if Martin's groin is mysteriously misplaced in an act of ruthless meditation

All richmond players ans supporters have small groins.

Fans have none.

It's why they come in here only AFTER Dusty was signed and flag won.

Well bowled!

2am and still no GD thread. Lift your game Gasometer

May need to rename to Slowometer

 

[Twinkletoes]

Is it free to get into the footy tomorrow?

I very much doubt it as the Ticketmaster site is advertising it with a link to purchase tickets.


Edit: In fact it definitely is not free, as the screen grab from said site below shows.

$20-30? Good lord.

 

[ozzyoslo]

He's 31, not 87 and he's coming off another excellent season.



Blooding them with Tarrant and Thommo is even better.

I wouldn't be holding my breath waiting for Thommo's career to finish. He could still be playing in 2020.

Time will tell Tef........they called time on the some other elderly statesmen in recent times.

 

[ozzyoslo]

Yeah, fair farks to the Tigs in that they won a flag, but what won it for them was not some ground breaking small forward line.

Wot wun it was having a brilliant run with injuries, having their top two midfield talents in Cotchins and Martins (both top 3 draft picks) have simultaneous career-best seasons and hitting peak form at exactly the right time ie in September.

and the AFL closing their eyes when it came to the prelim head non contact rule allowing clubs popular sons to line up on the big stage.

And three home finals sort of helped, too.

Imagine if one of our 2015 or 2016 Preliminary Finals was played at the MCG or Etihad.

 

[ferball]

If only our 2016 PF had been at Etihad or the G.

You have to wonder what would have happened if the Cats had the home final they deserved after finishing above the Tuggers. Richmond out in the Semi after failing to win a final again? Most likely I reckon.

Why on earth are they charging $20+ over and above a membership for a praccie? Are they even putting a spin on it besides $$$$ ?

Is this an AFL thing as opposed to a club thing.

 

[King Corey]

No idea not calling out one or the other, but it's pretty poor for the supporter (customer). A membership should be sufficient outlay to get into a practice match unless it's some nominal amount if they're using a community ground that goes to a local club.

 

[giantroo]

It's the AFL. Clubs don't get any $ from the gate for preseason games.

Its $20-$30 for non-members to buy a seat,Its $10 for member to upgrade to a seat. GA is free for competing members.

Thanks, that's much better then. Read it as $20-30 for members to enter as GA which seemed absurd.

 

[Horizons_00]

Is there a practice match this weekend?

Was canned in favour of a pub crawl.

Yep, 22 North players in a VFL praccy this Saturday. I think it's at Arden Street.

Is this piss up open to the public?

 

[remfan101]

Only if you rock up via motorbike

Yes but the club website will only provide details 5 minutes before it starts.

 

[Passmore]

Like one of those pop up food vans.
