Richmond take on Box Hill in a Saturday night VFL clash where the Tigers will be looking to get back on the winners list after back to back losses, including a thumping loss to Casey last round. The Tigers are coming off a 8 day break so should be fresh and ready to fire. Once again the main focus for me in this game is the development of the younger players and getting them playing at a more consistent level. A lot of focus will be on the likes of Smillie Sonsie & McAuliffe in the middle after they struggled against the Casey side last game, while it will be interesting to see how the forward line functions with Fawccett Sims & Bauer all named, Will be keen to get a good look at Clarke in his 2nd game back as he ramps up his game time as he looks to build towards a senior return in the 2nd half of the season.

The game will be shown on 7Mate for those in Victoria, while it will also be streamed via the AFL website for those interstate.

Judson working on that fitness/touch in 2nd week back.

Just on 4 weeks ago this game was scheduled to be played at box Hill city oval at 1 pm ..****ing campaigners change it
Why

 

[Charlie Pannam]

Too tall.
If we are playing a balanced team, you have Yassine playing, and one of the Cat B boys.
Sims needs ruck minutes as part of his development
But we’ll always play listed players.

 

[Azzleberry]

We went from being a team of short people for the last year now to being way too tall! Hopefully the conditions are perfect tonight otherwise could be a tough watch if it's wet/dewy

Could be worse. Our North game in a couple of weeks is on at the same time as the seniors

at least this one isn't our home game, so it's at a neutral venue that we just played at in similar conditions

 

[smurfin]

Bugger. Got commitments this evening so won't be able to watch it.

 

[guruisatiger]

Ch7 broadcast id say.

your fault for not having your life revolve around the vfl


but don't worry i'll melt enough for the both of us if we're playing like crap

Bloody huge night for the VFL boys after last weeks performance but with key ins this week it could go their way

Huge having gray garner sims back, as well as judd at full game time. Very optimistic for this game

Made my way to the afl captain run earlier today, happened to see vfl skipper lachlan street cutting laps and doing some drills. He’s look fit as a whistle and by the looks of it a week or two off. Will be a huge boost for the team

Hopefully they can knock the poos and wees off early

 

[smasha]

The last time I watched the VFL Tigers at Box Hill,the umpires ripped us a new one.

It was beyond biased.

 

[banzai]

The line has us at +40.5 ($8 to win). Line up looks decent enough, obviously need to improve significantly from last week.

Picture quality for me is better casting from the 7plus app than watching on 7mate

 

[Tiger_Of_Old]

Why do they employ special comments commentators who can't speak.
