Same old story from Demons and Tigers

Paul Gough - Sportal


...already it's pretty safe to assume that Richmond and Melbourne will remain the bottom two clubs.

But for long-suffering Tigers and Demons fans, their Round 4 clash is shaping as a mini grand final because it might be the only game either team has a chance of winning until they meet again in Round 19, if their first-up performances are anything to go by.

Of the two clubs there was no doubt Melbourne was the more disappointing. While the Tigers were at least competitive for two and a half quarters before fading, Melbourne offered nothing right from the outset and was outscored six goals to nil in the opening term.

To be fair, that article is far more critical of Melbourne than Richmond. In fact it goes on to highlight the massive turnover of players by Richmond and the new game plan, in addition to the fact we were at least competitive for more than half of the match. Also critical of the extension of Dean Bailey's contract.
