2014 Draw [merged]

[Stripes]

I'm pleased we don't play Carlton or Collingwood twice. I know it's great for the coffers and atmosphere but both have been boggie sides for us in the recent past. I would prefer not to play North twice though for the same reasons. Their midfield just seems to match up well on ours.

Certainly wouldn't mid playing Brisbane twice and Adelaide would be a good contest when they get back all their players from injury.

Looks like a good draw coming our way hopefully 

[Dice]

Play twice:  Sydney, Essendon (4 games)

Play once: Carlton, Collingwood, Hawthorn, Fremantle, Geelong, Port Adelaide (6 games)

Unknown: Adelaide, Brisbane, Gold Coast, GWS, Melbourne, North Melb, St Kilda, West Coast, W.Bulldogs (9 teams in the remaining 12 games = play 3 twice & 6 once)

Guessing the 3 other clubs we play twice come from our block of "six" = Adelaide, Brisbane and North Melb.

We'd have to be happy if that's how it pans out for us. 
Hopefully we get GWS twice this year. I think we're the only team in the AFL not to get them twice in a season as yet ?

Have we even played coll and haw twice in a season in the last decade?

I think its been about 7-8 years for the pies!

Looks like we're getting Norf's draw from 2012. We will be top 4

Is that a bad thing? Top 4 Richmond should get 60-70k against even the poo teams.

Yes because we will get our pants pulled down in finals by the good teams

You mean like when we beat the good sides? To make top 4 we're still going to have to beat some top teams.

Will you then start an "I told you so" thread 3 minutes after the finals? Why were you on here during that game? Couldn't get tickets? You live in Melbourne, so what's your excuse love? Too tempting to be online here all day and post rubbish about our club?
