The next 4 weeks

[Kerrby]

First of all, bad luck last night. You almost had it (if there was no fourth quarter I mean) and I'm sure it just wasn't your night. Lets also hop Vickery gets off for starting that melee.

Now the reason I'm starting this thread (and don't bite, I'm not looking for any negativity) is to ask you about your next 4 weeks.

Where do you go from here? Where do you see yourself on the ladder?

Gold Coast
Geelong
Bye
West Coast

Surely that's a win against Gold Coast, not sure about the others. The bye there is a bad time to have it because it leaves you behind in a crucial part of the season. But talking to a Richmond supporter (HBK619) on this website, he said Richmond have the easiest home run out of anyone in the competition.

After those four you have:
Sydney
Melbourne
Adelaide
North

But back to the main point, the next four weeks will be tough and I hope you guys hang in there (except again the Eagles. GO EAGLES). After all, you're only, say 3 games out from making the 8. Good luck.

Geelong and West Coast will put an end to even the most optomistic Tiger sitting on his ladder predictor. Next week is unloseable and Geelong and West Coast are unwinnable.

Those last four games are very winnable for a good side. We are not and would be lucky to grab one of them.

Hope you guys can decimate Essendon at home in the first week of finals.

I have conceded that they will make the finals but Im hoping they get you guys (you would be hoping for top four).

The last thing I had to look forward to was us driving a stake into their finals aspirations but since we cannot do it inhouse, need to outsource.

Well Richmond may still beat West Coast, last year you pumped us by 100+ points !

I'm sure Adelaide and Melbourne are 100% winnable games.

FWIW, I don't believe Essendon will even make finals. But if they do, it'll be all the more sweet to knock them out (providing they're 8th and we finish 5th).

I see us being very competitive against Bye. Other than that every week, including next week will be a loss. Decent pick in the draft? That's what is ahead for the Tiges.

That was at the MCG no chance in hell at Pattersons. I'm tipping we smash Gold Coast next week, put up a modest effort against the Cats and get disemboweled by your guys and give up about 8 goals in the first qtr alone.

The last 4 games are a raffle, I'm not sold on any of them bar Sydney and we seem to get up for games against interstate sides in Melbourne most of the time. To be honest, best thing for the club to do is put the cue in the rack and hope Port and Adelaide win a couple and we get a better pick come draft time.

They will make the finals and this is something I am not comfortable with.

Richmond have reduced me to enjoying the failures of Carlton,Collingwood and Essendon.

Since 66% of that small enjoyment in life has been taken from me, I have only Essendons demise to hang onto.

That Hird can be no more successful than Knights is all that I have for the rest of the year. Please make it happen. Fremantle reamed then in the first half. You guys should do the same and unlike your black sheep cousin you should go on with it.

BTW: We dont beat Melbourne. Unless they are trying to lose and even then we can still give them a sniff.

Hmmmm we shouldnt lose next week against the Gold Coast, but the way our players are currently going who knows what is going on in their heads ......

Cant see us losing against the bye, but as for the rest, its all about getting games into our players for the future.

why is next week unloseable. if ablett didnt get hurt this week i know where my money would be if i were a betting man.

Nice one Hansie ... would you slap a gorilla on the table?

You would lose your money.

With or without Ablett, next week is unloseable. Gold Coast are done. Sydney beat them by 70 points and still looked uninterested. We will be built up for it.

Reputations will be restored. Our duds will win another year on the list and our players will belt out the team song like we have won a premiership.

And a fat woman who watches the footy show every week without fail and wants to root Sam Newman will be yelling out "We are Back".

We haven't beaten anyone by 100+ points for years wasn't it only 70 something points?
