Ahhh the MCG on Friday night against the old enemy. What a sensational way to return to the grand old ground for Richmond.

GO TIGES!

Suprised at how many tipping the mighties, Carlton trounced us last year and have shown better form than us so far.


Picked up a Melbourne paper at the airport last night and noticed Cleve Hughes is going to debut tonight. FANTASTIC, I've been waiting for this all season.


Also reading 1 of the 300 emails I had last night, someone mentioned that Polo trounced Franklin in his comeback game for Box Hill. Real shame... lol

I will await his performance with interest. Good move by the Tigers to get him in the side.

Holding an unfit Franklin to 10 possies and a goal (could've and should've kicked more) in a VFL match would indeed have been the highlight of Polo's career. I dare say he should retire now.

Last year means nothing now.

Richmond were good against Brisbane last week - but Brisbane weren't exactly firing on all cylinders.

Carlton looked great against Hawthorn - and whilst my heart says Richmond will win - I just can't go past Carlton. If Fevola fires, they have the power in the midfield to kick a winning score with Murphy (nice pickup for my herald sun dream team - has tripled in value in only 5 weeks!), Stevens etc - they have the power to deal with Richmond.

Are you trying to say Richmond supporters shouldn't pump up their talented youngsters?


& Franklin wasn't fit? So f**king what? Go back and read the TREMENDOUS amount of bile thrown at Tambling last year when he was injured.

If it's good enough for Richmond's kids it's good enough for yours too.

Hmmm.

Most tragics prefer to pump up their youngsters for the performances they put in at the AFL level.

This is why Tiger tragics are scrambling to talk up another average Polo performance in the VFL presumably, because outside of Deledio they're getting painfully little to crow about in the big show.

Hence the reason Hawk fans aren't raving up Stephen Gilham's hatchet job on Meyer.

Ofcourse im going with the Tiges tonight... our last game vs them at the MCG was one of the best games rich-carl games ive been too. I also hope the scoreboard or anything for that matter doesn't catch on fire tonight.

So my tips.. (lol i dunno why we post them here.. but anyway)

Tigers
Kang (They MUST win this game)
Crows (Dogs should be tired and sore after weeks on hard surfaces)
Swans (like Kangs.. must win this game.. they couldn't lose again at home could they?)
Eagles
Freo (hate Saints lol)
Dawks
Power (couldn't stand if Pies won another game...)

So what you are basically alluding to is that biased morons would like to ignore terrible performances bty their so called superstars at reserve grade l;evel; .....


Too old, can't play till he's 40........

24 touches..........


RRRRRRRRRRRRRIIIIIIIIIIIIIIICCCCCCCCCCCCCCHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!


:D :D :D :D :D

Go Richo, and Go Richmond, anyone who experienced the Southern Stand tonight for the half hour after the game would understand why we are without a doubt the best supporters in the league.

YELLOW AND BLACK!
