    Collingwood looked right off, and Adelaide were on. How Mckernan was playing ahead of Jenkins is mind boggling.
    McKernan was looking for a transfer home to Melbourne at the end of. last season.No takers!!

        Always good seeing Richmond lose.
        How weak are Richmond, couldn't even do it for a club legend. They have gone backwards.

          Hardwick's going to be under pressure with this result.
          Melbourne as we saw last week are on the improve

            Geez, Richmond losing after a club legend passed. Their members and supporters will be filthy with that effort, expect calls for Hardwick's head to come fast. As far as we are concerned, we should be targeting any players on their list we want now and offering a new home and culture for the rest of their respective careers.

              Can't see Hardwick surviving a year without finals footy. He speaks well but still hasn't proven he can coach.

                To early to call
                No doubt Kelly looks the goods and I'm not suggesting anyone "won" the deal. I just think Tyson is exactly what the Dees needed more than Kelly PLUS they upgraded from 20 to 9 to nab Salem as well. All the "Melb got done" that was already in the media after 6 rounds I find increasingly ridiculous when I watch the two young fellas Melbourne got out of the trade. Both going to be very, very good I think and the Dees needed a ball winning, 65m kicking sidekick for Viney. They got a good one.

                  It's a classic win/win for mine.

                    Definitely a win-win but wasn't it simply Pick 2 for Tyson and Pick 9?

                    The trade which Melbourne lost imo was for Vince where they gave up another early pick. Vince might only be around for another couple of years.

                        Freo back to their pressure best tonight.
                        Result flattered Geelong and not for poor goal kicking and Selwood, Freo would have won by 10 goals.
                        Big test coming up in two weeks time.
                        Shaun Tinsley ( former Dog ) was great for Freo

                          That was pathetic from a senior player

                              From memory we played Freo at Freo. Richmond played at home with a big crowd against a cellar dweller.

                                I guess you are right. Richmond played finals last year and have no hope progressing this year. Their supporters must be so disappointed
