Well gents

That's it for round for another round.

A stand out winner this week with Scea picking a sensational 8.

He gets the Cadbury's.

Some movement at the top with Scea going to first and Ozzydom second.

Until next time.

I just had a look at the injuries list published today. I was shocked with the numbers for each team.

Try not to get belted by to much Will.

Our percentage is nearly the same as yours.

Watching my boys last night,the 1st thing i would change is this coming out of defence to the easy target out wide.

It doesn't give us a chance down the field.

Nice hanger by Zurhaar,was the shining light of the night.

The Dockers looked well drilled considering the amount of changes to their side.

Will27 · May 8, 2022

Well gangsters

All over for round 8.

Uncle Alex gets the Fry's Turkish Delights for a sensational 8.

Scea increases his lead with 7.

I on the other hand am going as good as the Eagles.

Until next time.

West Coast looking for a response after the nightclub debacle.

Danger game for Melbourne.

I think this team would be a coaches delight with a tinker of the game plan.

Gives GWS first dibs on Clarkson I guess.

For all of the <deleted> Norf and WC have gotten this year, GWS are 2-6.

A small injury list as well.

They've escaped a lot of scrutiny.

Your so right...it is a danger game...we dont put teams to the sword......Leaver and May hold it all up.......

Yes Fj i got my long stay visa after some hiccups so got a visa agent as we know this is another planet....witnessed first hand the brown paper bags going around the office...all done in 3 hrs 15 months....wining the premiership again....

Talk about buying a car...they dont let you leave the Demon dealerships in Melbourne without your deposit......BT50 and not the ex footballer commentator uninterested in selling me a ute ended up with a new civic....well in july...but it didnt help that the nose was sticking out 3 feet from a parking bay hey? I did say there monsters.....

And things move fast with luck assuming they can still smell my money i will be putting down a deposit for a condo in sin city...yes i know....but i cant do BKK for to long these days.....we are so spoilt back home with the Melbourne Demons Football meat pies and a regulated real estate market....noticed the agents playing each other and putting there own little mark ups on the price.....but im a little smarter than the average Parisian slum dweller....whos hooked on chang and bar girls.....chang is nice once a week and i find bar girls extremely ugly....,

Will27 · May 15, 2022

That's it for another painful round gents.

This weeks winner is Chooks who picked 8.

Until next week.

AlexRRR · May 15, 2022

Ye how the might has fallen......whats going on in Eagle land? bottom of the pops.....looking like eons from Mars....no direction known.....

I wouldnt get carried away by your second and third quarters, Demons do that....good vaule Demons...sells tickets if games are closer longer....

That dirty Ryan.......10 weeks......poor Chandler, a bit player and might be gone....Now plz someone on this planet explain to me why McGovern had the ball called play on after the mark then awarded a free kick against? Scratch scratch.....ahhhhhh!!!! umps make mistakes your saying?

You will get use to it Will.....well you never get use to it as in use to it what you get use to is the loosing...and the poor third or last quarters ...that type of thing....wont be easy for you to grovel at the bottom of the ladder....how i use to cope was swinging wildly on the pc chair....yelling at the monitor....that sort of thing....switching off 10 min to go......disgusted....its been really nice like the Northey years to just be able to sit quietly and just take it all in.....

Hey Alex

I'll tell you what's happened.

An aging list and decimated by Covid and injuries.

Probably missing 11 first starters.

It's our turn to take our medicine near the bottom while we hit the draft.

Ryan should get 2, Chandler will get a week for a "dangerous tackle".

Then again, Tom Lynch elbows Impey in the head and gets off, so who knows.

Don't get me started on that McGovern decision.

And then the ump should've pinged him for dissent!

I nearly threw the Hush Puppy through the Sony.

Nearly time to reintroduce the 15 metre penalty.

The umps aren't going to get it right all the time and a fifty is too expensive.

The thing i notice is teams closer to the bottom of the ladder get a rougher deal,especially with time to get rid of the ball.

My boys are traveling about as well as yours Will,Noble coming in for a bit of stick as gone backwards from last year.

So to stay interested i've taken a shine to the Suns,love the way they go about it.

GWS couldn't do it for Cameron but a nice send off for him.

FJ, the "arms out dissent" rule should just go.

Bringing in a 15 metre rules means another grey area for the umps.

Ping players for abuse, but this dissent rule is ridiculous.

The umps are in the best position to know what abuse is or not.

The young player at the Western Bulldogs Buku Khamis got a massive push in the back that wasn't paid.

He just held his arms out to say "really" and got pinged.

Norf in for a few more years of pain yet methinks.

I like the Suns as well.

There was one game on the weekend,i can't remember which but a fifty was given and the player ran into the defender on way to the mark.

In the rules that's a 100 metre penalty but it wasn't paid because i presume the ump felt the 1st fifty didn't fit the crime.

And as mentioned the one like the McGovern/Petracca call was classic top side playing bottom side decision,North cop them all the time.

Do you think your Eagles will shuffle in a mid season pick Will?

Mate, I'm hoping we can get Jai Culley from the Dandenong Stingrays.

He looks the goods.

AlexRRR · May 17, 2022

Im all in favour of a 15m penalty to come back in.....50 is to expensive for some things....or make it 20.....and get a set of chains on the side...alla NFL so the umps dont need to "work it out"

The D#**cks at AFL house want a faster game then the umps have needed to think faster....haha....think its time for 4 field umps men....so one for the forward 50 one for the defending 50 and 2 split between wings....thats about right....something like that.....sounds like a good deal to me.....

Unlike soccer where 3 or 4 new players can move you up the table AFL needs 8 to 10, North back when the 10 year rule came in went from dwellers in the cellar to 5 grand finals in a row...

Still thinking gutting your list the way the Demons and now North did is foolish, like im watching Ben Brown on the weekend and thinking where was the logic in cutting him? Like did they replace e him? NO...dont start me about the cull around 2010 or what ever that disintegrated us to almost go out of existence.....

And and.....a few years on.....was Gaff staying at Eagles a good move? and if North or Demons had picked him up was it a money down the drain....Lynch...yes yes one flag...tall bean pole but has he really done much for the Tigers....i dont think so....Rewalt is a way better forward in my book.....May.....yes.....made his money mucho grande, Lever? well it was all doom and gloom for year and 3.....still think hes a bit of a girl......well plays like one....but hey gets results and a good spoiler as well....North chasing that Gaint....threw the BKK bank at him.....who you ask? well i forget so there you are....Chasing high profile free agents is a recipe for a bad cake men.....think my team has done it well and that just getting lucky of course picking up Bennie Brown for a song was icing on the cake hey?

Tom Lynch has been massive for Richmond.

Apart from his huge salary, cost Richmond nothing in draft picks.

A two time premiership player.

Kicked 71 goals in 2019 when Riewwoldt was injured.

Also best on ground in the 2019 prelim, booting 5 goals, which they probably lose without him.

Rieiwoldt in his last year now.

Lynch still only 29.

I agree about Gaff.

Would've been better off trading him to Norf for a couple of first rounders.

But it's easy in hindsight.

Was coming off his second AA year.

farmerjo · May 18, 2022

Gaff would of been better value to us than the no name Alex mentioned(Corr)

Actually the only decent one we have got i can remember is Jarryd Waite from the Blues.

AlexRRR · May 19, 2022

Well im not a Lynch fan.....to much money for little value in my books......Rewaolt how ever you spell it is worth is weight in gold in my books....hes a terrier always in it....

The ex one year Demon veteran who was a Pie before that...the Brazilian has finally ended his feud....still not sure what he was getting all upset about....yes yes,...we all get abused at some point in life but hey i didnt run down to the equal opportunity board and carry on like a 2 bob watch over it....you get on your bike and prove them all wrong thats what you do.....

He was dreadful at the MCG....and injured 1/3 of the season....money for nothing...hey mr would you like to give some of it back? should be a law about underperforming.....make them pay it back.....id like to take his pay case to some board to get a refund....

Gees the Might Demons get another chance to boost there % this week...$1.01 to Norths $21 on winning....Fj can take some heart here, it took us most of the game before we ran over the top of the Eagles....Good value Demons...keep the others in the game as long as possible.....sells more tickets.....more watching......something like that.....not use to watching football in hot and humid weather men....

My head feels like 50 ys of watching the Demons when there were woooooooooful after being in BKK traffic....got a rent a car for a month...took my life into my own hands.....3 weeks in and i was in bed at 8.20 last night after an epic journey yesterday of 80 ks....round trip took me 3.5 hrs......

Will27 · May 22, 2022

That's it for round 10 Trend Setters.

A few upsets to finish off the round.

Myself and Chooks both picked 7.

I was closest to the pin so I get the Polly Waffles this week.

Scea still leading the way.

Until next time.

AlexRRR · May 26, 2022

Well men......can the Demons go back to back? 10 in and 10 in the bag....in a few weeks we go into the business end of the season......now i have refrained from being super excited in this prospect....and well aware of the second half of the season blues and surprises.....but who can lift more than Brisbane?

Like maybe the Tigers...but wait...they have Lynch in the team....string bean who's only tall and thats about it....on the ground is like a mud crab...

Cant be better for back to back.....after watching football for eons i know what im seeing....

Cats are gone...may of course throw in a few good games along the way, Cameron....gess the folly of recruiting so called superstars......another with skinny white legs that plays like Lynch...

Like we are not firing.....ho no...most are you know...saving themselves for the finals....they dont want to get injured....ho thanks again Fj for Mr Brown.....he seems better than i thought....

Alex there is a huge gulf between you and the next best.

Injury or complacency is the only thing that can stop you I reckon.

Then again, Richmond dominated the 2018 season only to be knocked out by Collingwood in the prelim.

I don't think anyone will be betting against you.

i was going to to put a few jaspers on you going undefeated at 45 to 1 a month ago.

Wish I would've, although history suggests you will drop one or two.

Yep i expect us to drop a few, we will get the wobbles for sure....but i haven't seen such a drop off from teams bar the Lions in a long time.....its like made for us to go on a threepeat......now i am getting carried away..... and im feeling for poor Fj hey it wasnt so long ago we got guttered by once club legends to get dragged up by the AFL and invested every others clubs money into us to make us what we are today....so you can thank Archer for screwing North cause you will be where we are in 7 ys time....

Would of liked to be a fly on the wall down at Arden street.

Not to disappointed with the exodus of the recruiters.

They should of got their marching orders when we took Will Phillips instead of Logan McDonald two seasons a go..

Hope the Saints go easy on us this week.

You were a bit stiff in the tipping Alex but the Tigs did give up a 5 goal lead,i think these days if your in touch with Richmond at half time your a chance with some of their older legs..

I don't know why they were asking for a fifty at the end.

Test for the Dees this week,will certainly be some pace on in this one.

Would be nice to see the Eagles get up so we get 1st pick back in the MSD.
