:hihi

[Harry]

Been to the gents 4 times today.

 

[mad_tiggy911]

Was just at a servo in Geelong on the way to the CBD. A lady serving was wearing a Richmond scarf.

Omen? I'll hang on to just about anything right now.

At the MCG in 2017

Geelong : 3 from 5
Flogged Hawthorn Round 4
Lost to Collingwood round 6
Lost to Essendon r8
Beat Hawks by 3 points in r17
Defeated Collingwood r22.

So Geelong play the MCG ok if they're up against a bottom 8 team.

Richmond 9 from 11 at the MCG.

I don't know how or why we lost to Fremantle in r 8.
We lost to Sydney in r13 too but I'll blame the bye we had the week before.

Ouch...we're coming off a bye tonight! We had Sydney beaten that day, then lost concentration or Sydney just found enough to win. We can beat them next time.

 

[BetterTigers]

MCC crowd is starting to queue up the hill now. 2 hours until we get in ... few thousand here already. I'm buzzing. Crowd's buzzing. Eat em Alive!!!

No problem, just kick it along the ground! Our coaches already know the more air we give our kicks the more we play into their hands. Cats are not unbeatable if we pressure them enough with good old fashioned tiger toughness. Bring back the Graeme Richmond attitude and be a feared tiger outfit.

 

[Rantnrave]

so they drop menzel..who cant tackle..for zac guthrie who can...the plan is to play guthrie on possibly ellis..to stop our run out of the backline...the geelong plan is to block and pressure us around the back flank and wing...this will force us to bomb it into the foward line where our small fowards will be monstered by lonegan,mackie ,taylor and those other big *smile*....scott knows that grigg houli ,edwards and our other runners from the backline often panic and blast away when under pressure......maybe we need another tall going foward.....im worried now.....think ill puke

 

[casper68]

Anyone know if the Maurice Rioli Club is open post game?

I would imagine that there will be a function going on in the Social Club being a final.
I was told a couple of years ago that a social club membership only entitles you to entry during the home and away season.

 

[Mr Brightside]

There's a convoy of Yellow & Black heading down the Hume ..... neally time for the Dusty Duffle to debut.

Go Tiges

They have 8 guys 193+ which is too tall for possible wet conditions! According to Terry Wallets on SEN who just criticised GWS for being too tall with 9 players at 193+ in last night's game.

 

[kiwitiger]

its not going to *smile* down ,maybe a shower or two , but there is the probability of a wet slippery ball anyhow , any patch of dirt you can find in melbourne is wet right now , and its not going to dry out in this cold weather

I've done something today I never thought I'd ever do ... took a half-day off work to watch a footy match.
Game starts at 11.50 am my time.
Not feeling guilty though.
If I hadn't done it I'd not have got much work done!

 

[Team Agg]

The anxiety and suspense is killing me.....had 3 nervous poos already
