Richmond Supporters....

[Ricky]

My God, I am embarrassed.

I couldn't believe the amount of trolls coming from our side of the tracks.

I love the tiges, great young team and attacking and fast. Just so much to like about them. The likes of Cotchin, Deledio, Foley, Riewoldt and Collins who i thought was pretty good in his debut last week. Those guys have a very promising future, Cotchin in particular.

Essendon Richmond games are always good to watch. (except for the last time we met). Both teams are on a high. Magnificent win against the Eagles. Yeah, they're 15th on the ladder and most likely finish on the bottom but you guys still had to make the tough trip to Perth, and still smashed them.

Gee, it's tough to call this one. Loved to see my Bombers win but with no Lovett or McVeigh, it's going to be hard to fill those positions. I'm going to tip us JUST. under 2 goals. If we do not win, I'm going to have the Richmond Theme Song as my ringtone for a week (a bet that i made with a few mates, but it's vice-versa if we win lol)

Good Luck Gents. I'm sure both teams will be treating this like a mini final. Loser is out of the finals race.

A bit harsh there MattD.

 

[Grechy]

Yeah way too harsh Matt, he's definitely not trolling. Should be a great contest but isn't it something like 15 Essendon players on the injury list at the moment?

Surely Richmond have enough depth and talent at the moment to put Essendon away this weekend with that sort of injury list. Especially now with two key players in McVeigh and Lovett who are pretty important in that side (especially McVeigh) I'd be nothing short of gutted with a loss.

We are big enough to handle them ourselves Ricky but best of luck, actually no, just thanks for message, as I wish Essendon no luck for the weekend.

Hocking Not best 22

So when it comes down to it you are missing 4 best 22 players by my count. So its not that bad.

We are missing Richo, Polak and possibly Thursty this weekend so we might as well call it basically even.

 

[smasha]

Like I've said before,the only man made things seen from the moon are The Great Wall Of China and Essendons Excuse Book.

Connors made his debut last year. He took it up to barry hall at one stage.

Still very worried about the bombers game. When Judd was out we took it easy against the blues and they beat us well in the end. Let's hope we don't do the same with mcveigh and lovett out. Lucas, Lloyd and Hille are still major threats.

Thanks for the nice words though.

hahaha... loved that one.

 

[Tigerrific]

I am actually a bit concerned about this weeks game.

Sides coming back from Perth usually find it hard the following week and there was so much emotion regarding Polak during and after that game that we would be unlikely to have the same intensity again this week. Not to mention the likelihood that Richo and Thursfield may miss again.

I am going to the game with my Essendon supporting brother in law and after all the shit that I gave him after our last victory over the Bombers I am worried that it could be a very long train ride home...

Don't pretend you know our team seriously because you clearly have no idea.

I wasn't confident for the last carlton match with judd out but I'm confident we have them covered with lovett and mcveigh out. We won't make the same mistake Im sure.

 

[JDC!]

Bit harsh on Essendon's injury list PR. You haven't given enough credit to some of their players. But if we are missing Richo, Thursty and Polak I think it definately evens it out.

Thanks for that Ricky. Should be a good game.

wow! thats a long list..

i'd expect casualties like that from a charge at the Somme...not 15 odd rounds of footy

 

[AstroboyUK]

good on you Ricky - thats a fair shake of the hands before the game - the same back to you.

This game is a an absolute pearler! What's the mood like in Melbourne? From waaay over here it 'feels' like it should pull 80k+

If they'd moved Bulldogs Geelong to the MCG on Sunday we could have been looking at a round-attendance record.

Good Luck mate, and while I have no time for your club, I wish Knighter success.......but not this week!

I agree. The simple truth is that if we are in fact going anywhere with this list we HAVE to be beating an anjury hit 12th placed in the ladder team when we are at home at the "G" with the Army out in force as it will or at least should be. Frankly this is a must win and we should win by 30.

 

[mattdwyer]

to harsh !!! hahahaha

this kid didnt fool me .. he has come on the tiger board saying "i think the bombers will win, but it will be a close game, so bad luck already"

and he is saying it 4 days before the game .. haha .. and i'm to harsh ?

i have nothing against the bloke, i just dont like someone coming on here and saying that kind of thing ..
