I voted MCG tennant, No injuries, and Good team with good gameplan.
At least that's what my mates keep telling me.
Just on the no injuries front, the amount of people who reckon we've been kissed on the d*** with our lack of injuries is starting to bug me.
I keep replying that with our manic game style and constant running and pressuring we "should" be susceptible to soft tissue injuries, but we haven't and for that I credit our strength and conditioning coaches for doing something right... and something right that is clearly better than every other team in the league right now! Pay that team whatever they need to stay together!

We are actually 4-5 goals better than the next best team but people can't admit that just yet so they come up with a range of bullshit excuses. Thats ok though, to quote Ben Shapiro "Facts don't care about your feelings" and the fact is we are reigning Premiers so suck it to 17 other clubs.

Also the answer is very dependent on which suporter base is complaining.

I went with Richmond are really good and everyone else is really s**t. Those two are accurate.
The real reason though is because our s**t list of plodders is carried by four genuine superstars. Those four superstars are overrated though. MB logic

I voted on all of them except good game plan because my workmates said Richmond are not good so that must be true, right?

Heh heh heh. The umpiring bias one is funny. Last in free kick differential in 2017......last again in 2018.
Yeah.....those umps really love us.

Voted for 2, 3, 5, 6 and 8.

I chose good team, game plan, etc. Not many opposition fans will want to admit it, but that's how it is.
I still maintain that we haven't hit anything like top form yet.

When every other team gets their turn at the top, they all seem to get kissed on the knob by the umpires. When do we get ours?
Although I must admit to being kinda proud that our guys keep winning despite not getting the armchair ride.

The universe is just trying to get their head around a competitive, nay dominant, Richmond. Give them time to see the light
Give 'em time. I still don't quite understand.

I'm sure a bit of it is luck, but to some extent, you make your own luck. Big kudos to the strength and conditioning team! Underrated factor in our current form.
Perhaps also some credit due to the depth of the list. If someone has a niggle, we don't mess about. We just rest them and bring in another AFL level player, hungry for the opportunity.

Other thing to consider in terms of the media is that both the Bulldogs and Tiges stuffed up their script that the Giants and Suns would be winning all the flags in the next 10 years! The Giants in particular should have 2 cups in the cabinet by now, but they got beat in two prelims
I keep replying "suck my dick" to them.
All of the above, if not for all that we'd basically be Fitzroy.

Yep. The Suns have been a complete misfire, and now the Giants - having falling short twice in a row - are having to contend with a long injury list, as well as the realisation that maybe they're not quite the super team that the AFL media has been telling us.Other thing to consider in terms of the media is that both the Bulldogs and Tiges stuffed up their script that the Giants and Suns would be winning all the flags in the next 10 years!

That being said, they'll probably make top 4 again. Although, you never know.

Haven't seen them at all this year, but checking this week's in's and out's, I see Patton's playing Ruck, Ryan Griffen's named at FF and Dylan Buckley is getting a game.
None of those things is a good sign.
But don't forget that good gameplan is only good at winning games, it is utterly unwatchable
