@mariner4life I had Saints about 15th or 16th heading into this season fighting it out with Carlton, Freo and Gold Coast for the wooden spoon. We don’t have much class in our side and our good young players are probably a couple of seasons away from hitting their straps.

you would have been in the minority then, as a large number of pundits had them having a crack at the 8. But i definitely agree with you on your squad. A big off season is required.

Oh, and i reserve my right to change all opinions of the Lions should the rumours around Dayne Beams prove to be correct. If he leaves in the middle of what is building, then the Lions are done as a club, and we'll never compete again.

Yeah I was very surprised by some of the preseason predictions. I think they put far too much weight on Richardson being able to work miracles through some sort of coaching genius.

I read today that McGovern wants out of Adelaide. Apparently weird cult camps aren't his thing.
But he is thinking of going to Carlton? Why they fuck would you waste your life going to that dumpster fire?

@antipodean Sweet. Once they sign him and lure Fevola and Kouta out of retirement they'll be competitive again.

can't be. North, who are a better team in nearly every department, offered everyone in the league the GDP of a decent size nation last year, and no one took it.

He is a WA boy ,
I wouldn’t be surprised if he ended up at freo .

Firstly, how shit is the pre-finals bye?
Second, Dayne Beams commits to the Lions for the rest of his contract. Beauty.
-
@mariner4life and the fact the bye week coincided with a weekend off of the Rugby Championship made it seem worst for some reason.
It’s going to be on this Thursday and the ferals will be out in all their glory around Melbourne town.
-
Thursday night is going to be out of control.
Friday will be massive as well. And then Melbourne goes quiet for the weekend.

Im going Thursday , strange that this is the first time Tigers and the Hawks have met in a final , both clubs have had their successful eras , but not at the same time ,
Going to the Storm v Bunnies Friday ,
Kick back and watch the ABs on TV sat
Life is good

Horse racing carnival here. I'll be blind every night Thursday to Saturday i reckon, so I'll see zero football until Sunday arvo.
Which makes it doubly frustrating they didn't have the AFL finals the weekend just gone!!

Tigers and Hawks fans are ferals?? Good luck buying a house in either of those suburbs pal

Tigers fans are ferals and there are literally hundreds of thousands of them most of which aren’t living it up in the trendy streets off Church St and Bridge road.

if you drove around the streets of richmond after last years GF and saw the amount of flags flying in the older terraced homes you would see there are still plenty that live there , I was surprised , probably mostly oldies that have kept the family home for years ,
But agree , most are in the outer suburbs these days ,
Probably the same with most vic clubs actually , Geelong being the exception
-
If you want ferals, look no further than Collingwood. Most other clubs look like a cross section of Victoria's demographics.

Just jump on the "Nuffies on AFL Pages" facebook page, every club has its ferals and idiots. Richmond just have a lot of them.
