Richmond vs Adelaide

[Phil Mrakov]

North did us absolutely no favours at all by beating Adelaide. Expect the crows to come out very strongly against us

it's payback for us thrashing the dawks just before their tassie meeting.

If that's the case we still owe em for the geelong game
Plus if you have a look at the fixture Nought have a game in rd 19 against doggies. The week before us, bet I can tell what will happen there as if scripted.

You would think that we would be too good for the dogs at the MCG.

Will probably rain

Get Jake King to do the pre game address against the dobbers to get us fired up!!!
I think we match up pretty well against them actually, hopefully Foley, Grimes & Vickery come in for O'Hanlon, Batchelor/Dea & Miller.

Jackson to go to Thomson and Lids, Cotch, Dusty to go head to head with Sloane, Dangerfield & Vince.  Foley & Grigg to get off the chain.

Big Ivan to come out fired up also....

Tigers by 15 points

I think this is gonna be a great game this weekend!
Re: nought they are like a pimple on a bum, annoying enough for you to scratch it but nothing worth doing anything about.

Would love to smash em by 15 goals this year.

[Hellenic Tiger]

I give us a huge chance.

Grimes and massive ins.

Crows have five day break. They have been good but they are not a top 2 side that they have been playing at all season. At some stage the standard they have set so far will drop. I'm hoping with illness and a 6 day break we can exploit them.

Won't be easy but not impossible. Can be done.

Stats that matter
Jason Porplyzia will play his 100th game against Richmond at AAMI Stadium on Saturday afternoon.

The Tigers play a high-possession game, ranking 1st in the AFL for handballs, total disposals and uncontested possessions. Brett Deledio has collected more disposals (330) than any other Richmond player, putting him in the top-10 possession-getters in the League this season. Deledio is also the best player in the competition at sending the ball inside his team’s forward 50m.

Ex-Carlton onballer Shaun Grigg is one of the architects of Richmond’s possession game. Grigg is ranked seventh in the competition for effective kicks (129), third in long kicks (72) and second in uncontested possessions (230).

Tony Modra holds the record for most Crows goals in a game against Richmond. The mercurial forward booted a Club record 13 goals in Adelaide’s round 16 win over the Tigers in 1993.

Shane Tuck and Trent Cotchin are Richmond’s leading ‘inside’ players. Tuck is ranked second in the League behind Patrick Dangerfield for hard-ball gets (86) and sixth in contested possession (165). Cotchin is also top-15 in both of these statistics.

Adelaide has won 19 of the 29 matches played between these two teams, but Richmond has taken the honours in the past two clashes.

Former teammates Sam Jacobs and Ivan Maric will go head-to-head for the first time this weekend. Jacobs and Maric are No.1 and No.2 in the competition, respectively, in hit-outs to advantage this season.

Jack Riewoldt is second in the Coleman Medal race, having slotted 35 goals in 12 matches this year.

Shows how uneven the competition is.  Out of the past 5 meetings (over 4 years), one game has been at our home ground (or in our home state) and we are about to saddle up for another away game.

Ridiciulous.

They must be basing it on info from last week when our injury list hadn't been updated since June 5. Let's hope they are also wrong with out of date opposition analysis on Saturday.
