    Keepings off and pressure in forward half. So far Tigers no answer. That 50 was so costly. Dusty only runs one way.

    Didn't he have ham down his pants for a game for some reason. He's a different unit.

    Wow, pretty sure when you jump and get pushed in the middle to lower back the top half of your body is levered to go backwards, and not bend forwards so your forehead almost hits your knees! Something like that would only happen if you know, you weren't really pushed and you were just staging for a free kick.

    The fifty was just salt in the wound, clearly players thought the free was going to Houli but Ray being Ray he couldn't read the moment, rather, he just wanted be the moment.

    Credit to Geelong working harder though, Richmond need to use the ball better.
    Nobody's looking for a puppeteer in today's wintry economic climate.

    Other than the success of the medical department their game plan also hasn't been picked apart like ours was and they have managed the loss of critical players like Rance better than most teams

    There is more to their success than just injury and list management
    It has been significant though G . They had injuries until about round 13 this year and they were out of the 8 .
    Top end players in their peak of their powers also . We had top end young players and some veterans. Credit to them to keep the hunger

    Thank God for that.

    Gutsy win by Richmond - reckon a few of them were jabbed up at half time. The hyperbaric chamber will be getting a solid workout this week.

    Prelim number 5 for Danger.
    Our 1954 premiership players are our heroes, and it has to be said that Charlie was their hero.

    Poor 2nd half. Had no answers at all for the Richmond wave.

    Dangerfield had a dreadful 2nd half but we won't hear anything about it from the media. And they will lose Kelly, who was their best player by far tonight.

    Prestia and Houli were fantastic tonight.

    Kelly walking out. Ablett & Taylor both gone? Henderson, Selwood & Hawkins 32yo. Stanley, Tuohy & Danger 30+. Recruits Dahl & Rohan didn’t stand up under pressure. Higgins & Goldstein knocked them back.

    Footy porn.

    Re: 2019 AFL Finals Series

    If we traded pick 12 for Keath & 21. We offered pick 21 up on a player...

    Would Danger entertain a trade? He’s not going to win a flag there?
    Would Geelong entertain a good pick and forgo his last three years of footy?
    Would we entertain giving up a good pick for three years of his footy?

    The answer is no. But if he wants a flag, we are the best option close to home. Geelong should get something for him if they are ever going to rebuild.

    Yep. I wonder if they wake up to themselves and start this year?

    Probably not.

    To be fair, they were 3 goals + up in a prelim.... they’re doing a fair bit right.

    I think this was their last shot tonight. They missed. All those high traded picks all but burned up, and they next level down talent is not awe inspiring.
