It's going to leave a lot of egg on people's faces if Geelong wins this - and if that happens I'll back them against the crows.
The melts would be glorious, the only supporters who could rival Richmond in post-win gloating this year were when Adelaide finally beat Geelong. I bet Jerka 'Joe the Goose' Jenkins will be regretting his comments if that were to happen.

Swans by 68
GWS by 23

Not about effort, Cats simply don't have a team capable of beating the swans on Friday- compare the depth of their lists it's a no contest.

Re: Jenkins. Our board is torn between a desire for him to keep his mouth shut and concentrate on his footy, on the other hand it's also nice to hear some opinions every now and then rather than just meaningless phrases.

That said, he and danger are still good mates and both know privately that it's just banter - that will be played out seriously in the public.

Yes but you're saying Richmond are that good to beat them by 50 as they are better than the other teams

Maybe, maybe not, but we're certainly a LOT better than the 'good judges' thought we were earlier in the year.

The season is already a success, the question is by how much.

Sydney 15.12.102 def Geelong 11.10.76
Crowd: 64509

GWS 13.8.86 def WC 10.6.66
Crowd: 19226

The GWS/WC game will be close for 2 1/2 quarters, I doubt it will be close. I suspect the winner will kick a few goals late in the match when it is all over.

Correct me if I am wrong, but it looks to me like tigs2010 is talking about Geelong matching up with Sydney and not Richmond i.e., he reckons Geelong would win over GWS and West Coast but they are matched up with Sydney instead.

Yeah so he is saying Richmond is much better than every other team as they defeated Geelong easily

No he isn't.

He is only talking about Geelong vs Sydney/West Coast/GWS and that Sydney is the one they match up badly against out of the three. That is why people are predominantly picking Sydney over Geelong.

This doesn't relate to Richmond.

You've Bagged them from pillar to post on the Liked Learned Hated Thread and now you want to love them ?

Your like my Mrs. Calls me a **** and then asks for my credit card.:rolleyes:
Just because I bag them doesn't mean they're no good. They were putrid against Richmond but I reckon they'll bounce back.

If GWS played Thursday last week and Geelong played Friday, why isn't the GWS game on Friday and Geelong on Saturday?

Because as important as this week is to the various teams involved, the advantage next week is more important, and the higher placed team get that benefit.
