Sorry @shark but there is something seriously wrong at Melbourne. There are getting a touch up from Essendon. Their defensive 50 is ridiculously open and they are getting scored on with nearly every entry.

Wait, check that

Could you intervene with that sort of commentary when the tigers play poorly for a half?

You sure? Bombers by 5 goals again now.

Perhaps you need to post more? Or less?

@mariner4life tell us how crap Adelaide are huh?
-
im expecting Richmond to get touched up by GWS today ,
Just dont think they can cover the losses Rance , Riewoldt, Caddy , Grimes , Houli , grigg ,
Plus Gws up there are no slouches anyway , thats a tough game at the best of times
-
@antipodean yeah, apparently the tickets were free. Spoke to an Adelaide oval member, the gf, they catered for 25k free spectators, got 53k. No turnstile revenue.
Make of that what you will.

Lions! 3-0!!!
-
First 3 rounds have been nuts
Obviously as a Lions supporter i am up and about, and sourcing Grand Final tickets...
The Suns are 2-1, and were a smart piece of play from joining us at 3-0
Geelong are flying, 3-0 and have beat 3 teams most picked preseason to be top 4 (including me)
West Coast had a set back round 1, but are now going again, beating Collingwood again at the G is pretty big.Richmond? Wheels off? Not playing well, all the injuries they have avoided for the last couple of years coming at once. Martin to be suspended? Looks ugly at the moment
Melbourne look way off.
Adelaide look old in some spots. Their captain is just about their worst player as well. Losing twice already in Adelaide will be a serious concern.of course, 3 rounds in is waaay too early to make any firm predictions about anything. It's just been a very unexpected start to the season.

Yep richmond are in deep shit ,
Now its Rance Riewoldt Cotchin , their leadership group all gone , plus dusty ( who has been a bit shit anyway but is usually their best ) plus others gone , and they have had such a dream run with injuries , the guys coming in , almost half a team , are low on experience due to being very seldom needed ,
Oh well , the last 2 years were fun ,
Go Storm and the Blues

Time to develop depth and build into the season.
Also, two weeks for that? Ridiculous.

Credit where it's due, you've stuck with the Lions since you started following them, back in 2002-03?

@antipodean yep. So about 14 years longer than the average Richmond fan

Closer to seven statistically, well those that would actually become members. They had more during the great war than they did in 1987. Amazing what winning does.
Reds managed to fill out Suncorp not too long ago.

What did you think of Hardwick's post match comments?

Bang on. Players need to step up and not hope a Brownlow/ Norm Smith medalist plays brilliantly. ALso if the umpires are going to elt that shit happen off the ball, the AFL needs to accept a player will sooner or later take matters into his own hands.
I think we actually played better against GWS than we did the Pies, we just need to take our chances.
-
Dusty was dumb. Cheap shot. Hardwick needs to give him a serve I reckon. He’ll get two weeks and Richmond will lose the next two.
