Don't like to be pessimistic, but this is the worst Richmond team assembled in 5 years.

Would be an incredible performance to win, half the team is either not good enough or not ready, Jeepers

I'm assuming you are referring to post-2016, because Taylor Hunt and Steve Morris were both on the list before then.

So we've got Mabior Chol one out against Grundy and Cox....

Prepare to get destroyed at the clearances again and even though Pies don't have elite forwards they have enough to be dangerous with supply on their day.

I guess the whole point of Rioli back in the new role is to see him at half back, so looking forward to that.
Cox isn't playing thankfully, otherwise he'd kick 10

Imagine Garth ball in hand coming out of the backline, 4th quarter and close game, some serious cold sweats s**t anticipating him to kick it down the throat of a pies player

George and KMac obviously untouchable, no matter how much they stink it up.
Miller has had his card stamped, as has Caddy, Rioli comes back after showing a whole lot of not much in the 2's, and what was the point of drafting Parker if you have no intention of giving the bloke a look in.

Surprised Parker didn’t get a call up ! Why did we recruit him then if his from warrants a promotion ?

Perhaps he was recruited because he's 23 and they see five good years in him if they train him up right

If that does happen the backline could see more ball than the days of Thursfield, Moore and McGuane.

Things are looking pretty grim at tigerland this week. Is it actually worth watching? Some no name from the pies will have a field day and kick 5. Circa 2016
One thing worth watching will be seeing the mods boot your ass out "rookie" troll

Dons are (currently) above us on the live ladder.
Have to win on Sunday.
They play the Roos next week.
WC is at $1.18 to Roos on $4.95
To be fair, WC does have a couple of tough matches coming up, Dees, Lions.
We play the Giants in six weeks, a crucial clash which will determine the ladder.

Not many of us would have thought the Bombers would have been above us with 6 rounds remaining in the season

Why the fu** is Rioli in? What has he done to warrant a spot?
Take a look at our outs. There's no one else left to play down back. All of Mansell, Stack and Rioli are needed down there.
Lose this one and the goal should be to pump games into young players, sorting the good ones from the bad ffor next year and giving senior players that ho around again a chance to recharge
We're already doing that. RCD, Dow, Mansell, Stack, Garthwaite, Baker, Naish and Graham are all 23 or under.

Less than a year in the system and MRJ looks like he's dropped a lot of puppy fat and is starting to take on a more professional AFL shape. Patience will be a virtue with this lad. Has all the attributes, just needs to get ultra fit and hopefully explode into the game.

Miller is injured and Caddy was a late out last week with soreness so not sure you're rushing him back in.

let's hope McIntosh gets back to his dirty dog hungry mongrel bastard best and scares the crap outta some of those soft and fledgeling magpies.
That's what he's good at. Funnily enough, when he does that his disposals seem to improve.
