It's just the rivalry. They reckon they're the team in Queensland and so do we. I think they take a bit of a backward step when blokes go hard at the footy. I hope they hear that too."


That's awesome! The issue is, coaches won't like it. The media will torture the bloke if they lose and we'll go back to cliche's at which time the media will complain that all we get is cliche's. No one, with an opinion, can win.


That didn't take long

While I’m in between beers.....

My Friday Forecast -

* Dons up and about early and lead at the main break.
* 4.50pm start where I am means I can still take the family for dinner after.
* Richmond come hard, but too late.
* I have to believe whilst we are still a sneaky chance.
* Bombers by 19 points.
* Attendance 78,485

10:50am start time over here.
- We will have a crack early
- The class of Richmond to wear us down and carrying a couple of guys with injury concerns never works.
- We will be a man down before half time for the 4th game in a row
- Richmond by 31 points
- Crowd 77,455
