But any loss which makes it a bit harder for them to get that home final is a good thing.
I hope they play WCE in Perth in F1. Or Port in Adelaide. Let them suffer at the hands of an unfavourable interstate match up and see how good they really are.

Pretty sure they won away at the Gabba in 2019.
What should I tell her? She's going to ask.

Re: AFL Game Day R13 2021
Let’s face it, to win the flag you need to beat good teams. Most likely we’ll need to beat Richmond at some point. They’re very good and in some ways it be good if they fell over early in the piece, but how good would it be to beat them in a knock out final?!

Yes, I’ve ignored a number of good road wins they’ve had over the past 4 - 5 years. Get the feeling this year more than any other though they will need the little advantages like playing at home.
It’s a shame they won a GF outside of Melbourne last year really. Doesn’t align with my narrative.

Re: AFL Game Day R13 2021
Tigers best win was the PA away win in last year's prelim after they lost the first week to the Lions.
That was the flag there.

I feel we just need to knock out Geelong for the year to be a success.

And a prelim against Port.
Nobody's looking for a puppeteer in today's wintry economic climate.

Pies taking it to Demons. Could be an upset brewing. They're defending the corridor well and lowering their eyes inside 50.
Lever is cracking the sads, he's going full Balta these days.

Woods should be 30 points up.
Woods aggression with the footy showing how to beat them.

Doing ok atm. Good pressure and not allowing Lever and May to play their roles. Geez Pies would be a lot better if DeGoey actually had some ticker, instead of a stinking attitude to chase and pressure.

That's the problem, sides don't put them to the sword so they're always in the game.
Will be very surprised if Pies hold on but it does show you that quick low entries are so important against the Dees. If it doesn't lead to a mark, it'll end up as a stoppage more often than not and gives you another chance to pile on the pressure.
Our 1954 premiership players are our heroes, and it has to be said that Charlie was their hero.
