Richmond intent on cracking the top-four in 2016 ....... (Herald-Sun)

[one-eyed]

Richmond has bowed out in the first week of the finals in each of the past three seasons, but are intent on cracking the top-four in 2016.

Richmond fitness chief Peter Burge said a heat camp in Cairns last month had put the squad on track to complete a solid summer campaign.

“The way the guys have come back from Christmas, some of the indicators we’ve looked at so far, there’s no doubt that the camp has given us a really good platform,” Burge said.

We couldn't afford to drop those games in 2014 and 2015. But we did lose. What makes this year any more important?

I won't be clapping anyone off if we lose to the Dees again .
But I will be on OER waiting for Claw ( who is in hiding like Luke Skywalker) to reappear .
Plus I'm sure Stalin will high jack every thread with his anti Grigg/Houli/Chapman/Hardwick/Peggy  vitriol...which is always entertaining.

What we need against Melbourne is, not for the players just to realise a top 4 spot is on the line, but for the stakes to be even higher - say a players 200th or a tribute game to a club legend. Surely the players would step up in that context and give their all

After all, they are apparently top blokes who would die for the jumper
