West Coast, Geelong and us were all winnable with a bit more poise.
We were ripe for the picking last night, when Richmond hit the front they stopped doing what got them into that position and looked like they were not quite sure what to do.
Wont make finals again this year but not easybeats anymore


Disagree Jim. Other teams don't have the consistency they do. North, Bullies etc wont make it, so it opens the door for Richmond.

Tiges have Hawks and Saints so will more than likely be 3-7.
Geelong and St Kilda are out of the 8 and I reckon both of them will make the 8, cant see a third team dropping out for Richmond to get in. Thinking 9th-10th at best this year for them

Grimes is a massive loss, will test the lack of depth we currently have.
If you can keep your head when all around you have lost theirs, then you probably haven't understood the seriousness of the situation.

Awesome win on Saturday but have to follow it up with a win against the Saints not an honorable loss.

And to KG Cunningham and his crappy Saturday column we are not wasting our time unlike to bottom feeding feral Port bogans and the Pretender Chardonnay Cows.

Though we have finally pensioned this old fart off but now he is own mmm and in the tiser
With his you live in SA you have to barrack for the Cows and Bogans myth.

Let that be a lesson to you Sturt. You don't beat Glenelg 3 times in a row in Grand Finals and get away with it.

Saturday's win against Hawthorn was the first time in Hardwick's 54 game career that the Tigers have won all four quarters

St Kilda coach Scott Watters said today that Richmonds midfield- Maric, Tuck, Deledio, Rance, Martin is the best in the comp! :shock:

Hawthorn, Adelaide, Geelong, Collingwood all say hi...

So does Cotchin and Foley. Geelong's midfield stinking it up this year. Losing in ruck, losing clearances and losing contested footy. Hawthorn a very one paced midfield (which is why Geelong do so well against them). Collingwood's weakened by the loss of Ball and currently Swan (although Sidebottom has stepped up here). Keep in mind also that coaches always talk up their opposition the week before they play them. It's the old Mick Malthouse trick.

Would of thought that Essendon are up there, especially as we lead the clearances and also rate highly in so many stats.

Richmond are the greatest 12th placed side in the history of the game the way people are talking them up.

History says they will lose this one and disappoint again.

Everything points to a loss, Saint Kildas fav ground to play at, in good recent form at that ground as well, not alot of injuries!

Saints haven't got a ruckman. Maric will dominate. Richmond will get first use more often than not. I'll have money on the draw but the Tigers should win IMO
