"Why Are You Wearing That Stupid Man Suit?"

Is it any wonder that Ross has coached and been a major influence on the 2 Team that have been, and continue to be, the least successful Teams in AFL/VFL history.

Footy Fix: Ross Lyon is the AFL's most boring coach once again - and it's suffocating the Saints' season

The 2 incidents are virtually the same. I complained at the time that 2 metre Peter should not have been suspended and by doing so the AFL were penalising players for completely accidental contact. I don’t like Toby, but based on this precedent he should get 3-4 weeks even though as far as I’m concerned contact was accidental and he should have no case to answer.

Won more the Cats!

Freo always wins in donseyland.

Regardless, its pretty clear now that the Tiger’s are the more depleted Team. I’m not going to use it as an excuse should we lose, I’m really not concerned about results this year, just how much game time we get into the kids and to see how they develop.
At least you and I have confidence that when our Teams do rise they generally win Premierships….maybe a Richmond v WCE Final in the not too distant future.

I’m referring to your comment at the top of this thread insinuating that the aurhor was mistaken in describing Richmond was more depleted: April 11th 2024 @ 9:06pm.

Based on your initial rhetoric.

Exactly! Go the kids!

Pretty weak Nics, going for the strawman argument.
I couldn’t care less about results this year. I have a recent dynasty which will sustain me well and truly until the next period of success. As far as I’m concerned it’s only about getting game time into the kids.

Sorry, I didn’t realise that the Ryan you referred to was Liam. I thought he had already retired. If you say he’s in the Eagles best 22, I’ll take your word for it but he seriously wouldn’t get a game in Richmond’s reserves best 22.
Regarding whether we win or lose, I really don’t care. I’m just glad the talented Richmond kids are getting a game. I think pressure really is on the Eagles now….I think most actually expect that they should win against such a depleted Richmond side. It’ll be crushing for the Eagles if they lose this one!

It was the only explanation for what was coming out of your mouth. Only you think The Eagles have been hit harder by injury. Everyone else in the (real) football world can see that the Tiger’s have lost a 3rd of their best 22.
I always enjoy seeing just how far you will go to embarrass yourself

No. Just like I’d be surprised if you decided to parrot the same embarrassing and fanciful comments that Don has in this thread. I would hope you would have the honesty to agree that Richmond’s 8 best 22 missing is quite a bit more damaging than The Eagles. But regardless I’m actually pleased in a way. It’s great to see the talented Richmond kids getting games into them.

Your toilet paper?

Only in your tiny mind Don.

All Teams rise and fall Don. They have their time in the sun and then they rebuild. The difference is, the Tiger’s and the Eagle win Premierships when the Sun shines, whereas Freo just don’t! And probably never will. Just another St Kilda really! 😁

Questions to ponder ahead of Round 5: Are we sleeping on the Cats, Will West Coast's pain continue and How good are the Dees' forwards?

Right, this is the Eagles you’re talking about? The Team who has won only 5 games since 2021?
Like I said, you’ve really got yourself quite confused, again!

Final Teams announce and both Edwards & Maric are IN!
Oh Don, I can’t stop laughing. Thanks so much for your comedy once again!! 😂

The rest are either barely VFL level or pre-retirement and overdue for such.
Very disrespectful Don for you to refer to the Eagles Team that way.

Questions to ponder ahead of Round 5: Are we sleeping on the Cats, Will West Coast's pain continue and How good are the Dees' forwards?

Taranto now? Injury horror show at the Tiger’s with 8 of their best 22 now unavailable. Up side is that they now have to playthe kids and get some games into them. Always was going to be a development year for Richmond.

I can see you don’t know how the system works Don. At this stage they’re “in” because they have been named. If they were definitely “out” then they would appear in the “out” list. Do educate yourself old chap!
Oh, and by the way, Taranto reported injured, so Richmond now has 8 of their best 22 players unavailable compared to the Eagles 2! That might bring the line under 2 goals.

Yeah, righto Don! 😂

Questions to ponder ahead of Round 5: Are we sleeping on the Cats, Will West Coast's pain continue and How good are the Dees' forwards?

Most likely lack of ability. But the point is, they’re not actually “out” like both yourself and Nics incorrectly asserted. No credibility whatsoever. 😂

Questions to ponder ahead of Round 5: Are we sleeping on the Cats, Will West Coast's pain continue and How good are the Dees' forwards?

Edwards & Maric are both in the selected team but in the extended interchange. Obviously struggling to fit into a “depleted” 22. 😂
Like @Tigerinthetank said “Gee would’nt you think you’d do your homework before you commented and make yourself look like a dill”
You’re struggling for any credibility here Don! But keep going, its fun to read! 😂
