[WA Tiger]

Righto Martin, here is your first target in round 1. You said you were going to do some crunching, now head straight for that shoulder!!!!!.......

Should clean them up Round 1 WP, will over run them, bust them up bad, bring them down to where they belong....trust me, Round 1 will be one to remember....big win mate!!

This is the result of Dusty and Judd doing push ups on opposite sides of the planet.

[eliminator]

After the thrashing we got from Carlton this year we need to make a statement when we meet them in round 1.

Yes I raved on about this last year, really need to go out and smash them, start with Martin....big hip and shoulder at the bounce on Judd.......within 5 meters of the ball of course.

Don't think Judd will even play?

KB is now predicting a 90 point win to us

and has put a line right through the Carltank list for 2012.

But Carlton has said its only minor surgery and that he will be back training in January.

Remember the stink when guys like King and Jack were going to be a few weeks behind starting full on pre-season? Imagine the meltdown around here then if it were only January instead. Only January!

Judd will be ok I suspect. It's not like he tackles or lifts his arms above his hips. The umps will give him a few make up kicks too.

[Phil Mrakov]

Gotta admire KB's hatred for Carlton

[Chuck17]

Dont get too carried away folks we are still a fair way off of being a good side.
Look for Shed to be cleaned up early.

Judd's booked in for minor surgery

Scum say he'll be right for round 1

It's how we start that will determine the result 

can we win = YEP

Will we win = who knows I'll get back to ya

Haha, the Carltank fans on BF fall for it every time.

[mat073]

Not so optimistic.

Carlton have won six straight with an average winning margin of 63 pts. FACT.

[Owl]

which means statistically we are all that closer to winning one back. 

[Hellenic Tiger]

Lets not get carried away.

Yes we do need to beat this Filthy mob but lets keep our feet on the ground and not get too far ahead of ourselves.

Can remember The Filth going down a similar path in 2009 with injuries to Judd and a few others and then the O'Hailpan incident where he booted Cloke which clouded their pre season before Solarium Man opened his mouth and declared us "locked and loaded"...............

Lets not worry about them and worry about us and what we will do to combat them and if the golden boy mercenary aint playing because his shoulders are stuffed it is not remiss of me or any Richmond Supporter to be pleased about that. Let our footy do the talking and don't give in to excuses or reasons as to why or why not things are hapenning.

The pressure is on them to perform as noone expects much from us. Lets buck that trend.

Dusty can test out Judd's shoulder in the first 5 minutes to find out if it's really okay or not  .

What about everyone's early thoughts for their round 1 side?

Here's mine:
B:    Grimes       Rance             Morris
HB:  Newman    Astbury/Post   Batchelor
C:    Houli         Cotchin           Deledio
HF:   Ellis          Riewoldt         Conca
F:    Nahas        Vickery         Griffiths/Miller   
R:    Maric         Martin          Foley
Int (from):  Grigg, Edwards, Helbig, McCarthy*

At CHB there's still no obvious choice.
