Am i out of my mind to even consider Richmond to beat Bulldogs on Friday night? Historically, when a team changes coaches, they win!

[SLED]

lol Damo, if you watched them the last couple of weeks you'd know the doggies are the 3rd best team in the comp........they almost rolled the Cats on the siren!

Wouldn't count on history repeating itself especially since Richmond just had their win for the year......think that makes it 2 now, ROR

[Damo_R34]

i have gone with Bulldogs, but still, i dunno. Yeh, Bulldogs by 27 i think.

[SLED]

Hawthorn vs Sydney

Essendon vs Adelaide

They're the 2 tuffies this week.....could go either way.

[TALBO]

Hawthorn

Adelaide

[Damo_R34]

Hawthorn, but Essendon away i think. Id pick Crows if it was at AAMI.

[TALBO]

I think Adealide can beat them anyhow, better chance if Porpz and Danger pass fitness test imo

[Damo_R34]

They'd be silly not to play the Porpoise, he is a flat out gun player, one of the best in the team. Both teams need to win to maintain their current ladder position, just out of the 8, i dunno. Adelaide have won the last 2 games against the Dons.

Ok, im gonna say, Adelaide to lead at quarter, half, and three quarter time, but it depends if they fall over in the last quarter, i hope not, coz im picking them.

Geezus! You can bet on anything these days!!

I picked Freo to beat port... 7/8

[PREISS]

Remind me to never go to a port Adelaide magpies game.

Every single time I go we lose. It doesn't matter who it is.

F'n south beat us last year when I went.

If im not there we will usually win, or at least come close.

Today was crap

Yeah 7 here, thought Bris might have knocked off Carlton, dang. takes me to 61

Ha ha, just about summed it up to a tee... the wrong way around. Crows uphold their outstanding record in significant milestone games.

7 out of 8 4th week in a row for me, bloody Lions!

they aint travelling to well the ol pies! lost 8 out of 9 matches so far this season... they havent been a strong side for quite a while now.

last match i attended was norwood v port at the parade last year. was a good match, legs won however

[TALBO]

legs won however

[SLED]

yeah I've been to a few Port v Norwood games at the Parade with my good mate Mike Aish (to watch his son Jesse play) but over the last few years, no matter how bad Norwood have been travelling, they always tend to beat us.

[TALBO]

Aish was a legend

[SLED]

yeah and he keeps reminding me about his 1981 Magarey medal!

I keep telling him that he's lucky Russell Ebert was injured that year or he would've had 5!!

Seriously though, his Dad (Peter) was a brilliant and naturally gifted footballer too but unfortunately Jesse (Mike's son) hasn't been able to cut the mustard (injured at the moment).....he was to be the 1st SA player to play for the Crows under the "father/son" rule.

I see Mike and his family most weekends and he's still a legend.......even though he goes for the opposition.

Matthew Richardson 201.00

Sheesh thats pretty good odds for someone who is still a player....and hasnt been an assistant coach at all....

I would most likely say that one of the assistant coaches mentioned in the odds will prob get the job....so may old lions players in that mix as well

[Damo_R34]

Jade Rawlings didnt take long to settle in!

Richmond caretaker coach Jade Rawlings has set out to immediately reinvigorate the Tigers with youth, axing veterans Troy Simmonds and Joel Bowden among five changes for Saturday night's AFL clash with West Coast.

The five players added to the side, including debutant ruckman-forward Ty Vickery, are all aged 22 and under.

The others are ruckman Angus Graham and running players Shane Edwards, Robin Nahas and ex-Essendon utility Tom Hislop.

Along with Simmonds and Bowden, Rawlings discarded Tiger fans' whipping boys Kayne Pettifer and Jordan McMahon, along with courageous midfielder Mark Coughlan.

The omission of Bowden and Simmonds means Ben Cousins is the only player in the 22 out of the six Tigers aged 30-plus.

Fellow veterans Matthew Richardson and Nathan Brown are injured, as is former skipper Kane Johnson, who announced his retirement this week.

Its either gonna be his best move in history or his worst.
