2 wins and a draw where they were 50 points down in the third?

You only had to listen to Walsh in his press conferences and in media interviews to see why he was so well regarded. His ability to engage people was unreal.

The club has always improved under his watch.
Fagan, mate, he's great to listen too, mate, you know, as a CEO mate, he's great you know, mate.

100% agree, and recall saying at the time of his appointment it was a good one.
Koch could learn a thing or two about how he conducts himself too.

Why change the rules for a GF?
It's supposed to be the best game of the year, gives every opportunity if 1 side is disadvantaged by an early day ending injury.
While we are at it, let's have 36 each team and they can swap 18 players every quarter OR if someone in the opposition side gets hurt, the other side could lend them a player ala under 8's

To beat Adelaide they'll need to kick 100 points plus, to do this someone has to kick 5-6 the only one capable of doing this is Dusty but he must play mid. You can't rob Peter to pay Paul, Dusty must play 80% mid.
5 years ago I would've possibly brought in to the mental weakness of Adelaide but not anymore this is very much an 'UnAdelaide' side if that makes sense when the going gets tough they dig deep.
Going over both sides simply can't see Richmond have an advantage anywhere at all apart from the crowd.

Based on previous form maybe but it's a one off game now. Richmonds defence could have a good day out and their all round pressure could keep the Crows below 80. The Crows might not settle or ever get in the groove Just never know in the big one. Setup for a real Scrapper v Class contest, hope it delivers a good one.

Has a bit of a 97 feeling about this, Richmond under enormous expectation within Melbourne like the Aints back then.
