Revenge is a dish best served cold.Then get an Elimination final in Perth and a Semi in Brisbane or Adelaide ........pass.
We need to finish 5th or 6th.

*smile* media morons. Why does the umpire have to be brave? He just needs to make the right decision. These *smile* idiots in the media continually make excuses for umpire *smile* ups. No wonder the standard keeps deteriorating when no one is ever held to account for their actions.Lol me too. Have stayed off FB etc to avoid the Richmond hater trolls. Agree, want to wash this loss away with our next win. If we are fair dinkum which I know we are we should be beating all of the saints, GC and Pies in the next 3 games.
On the couch now, Browny and Nick did say we played well enough and un Richmond like to lose a game halfway through the last being 22 points up.
But bad turnovers cost them in the end.
Also, they all agreed that the kick by Ryan to Kennedy was not even more than 10 meters but needed to be a brave umpire to not pay that mark.
Got stepped on by a Wet Coke player, hopefully nothing more than bruising.Did anyone else notice JR holding his bandaged wrist. Seemed to hurt it even further after he grimaced and hardly saw him after that.
One of my kids said maybe the pattern is we won a flag, then missed out, then won two, then missed out, so then we will win three.
We should make 5th or 6th and get a home EF. With Melb WB and Geelong most likely to make top 4 it could well give us a Semi at the G and possibly a Prelim at the G.
West toast game proved we are not a top 4 team.
We don’t have the killer instinct or composure any more.
the team we will (hopefully) put out in Sept will be different to the one that played in Perth- Nank, Prestia, Cotchin and Lynch will make a big difference come finals time.Not only is top 4 gone, but the chance of a 3-peat is gone. people are hoping beyond hope that we'll peak in the run home, but we are just playing well enough. our record against other top 8 teams says it all.
its more than that. its the fact that we lost against a very average team. I don't care what anyone says, west coast are no good. that last quarter was pre-2017-esque benny hill music stuff.

If Geelong bulldogs and Melbourne finish top 3 then there’s no difference between 1st and 4th place so we need to grab that 4th spot. If we do, our whole finals campaign will be on the MCG.
Anytime Bris and port lose, that’s great
And Astbury.We had 3 of our best 22 out. they had 4 of their best 22 out.
For sure. Luck still plays a huge role in any premiership though - so when the cookie crumbles your way (2017/19) you make the most of it.I painfully remember the bad old days of hoping other teams lost so we could make the finals. We are brothers and sisters in our pain and developed coping mechanisms to ease our mental anguish. Don't care to revisit that era and persistent mindset ever again. We either win it wherever because we are good or we miss out because we weren't.
