Another thing stopping us belting the lions tmrw is the fact if west coast and Geelong win its not in our best interests to have a big win. A 60 point margin would have us overtake them and send us interstate first week.

If West Coast only win narrowly, a big win over Brisbane (65+) could see you finish 2nd.
Lions are too good for us to simply chase percentage against, that’s ridiculous, they’ll be hard enough just to beat, especially if we’re without Grimes.
I’ll only start genuinely considering what margin we want to win by if there comes a stage where we are simply home. But I don’t think that stage will happen until late, if at all.

And if Carlton beat Geelong today, with the above scenario Richmond would be the minor premiers.

I think Grimes is a better player because he's more experienced but the differences aren't as great as some on here think. Fairly close in playing ability and overall ability to stop opposition players from scoring.

A draw would benefit both sides IMO, be great if it happened

Unlikely I'd have thought.
Looking forward to it. After slacking off in the first quarter last week we’ll make sure the pressure is up from the start. We’re back to our defensive best since the bye. Love the Lions and see how thing pan out. We’ve buried most teams by halftime and coasted. Last week was a wake up. Tigers by 39.
Lol, you waited until Geelong were the best part of 10 goals up to respond. But yes, I think you're on the money with that one

Huge call, absolutely huge call
Garthwaite coming into the reserves suggests Grimes' knee may not have recovered in time or could be right on the cusp as a game time decision.
That would certainly help the Lions attack if he misses.

Why would Richmond want to lose?

Brisbane by at least 10 goals, will look like they're not even trying.

Is this a dead rubber now for Brisbane? 2nd spot looks guaranteed. Richmond has to make up 8% to overtake them what margin would that need to be?
Brisbane supporters, I’d like to remind you that you are a guest in this Richmond thread and should avoid any posts that may cause them discomfort.
No such thing as a dead rubber for this club, sorry.
