Now that everyones exectations are high, the most Richmondy thing to do would be a 1-2 quarter pressure blotz on the opposition followed by a second half collapse and 10 goal loss.

Something like that and a ninthmomd finish on the ladder at the end of the round

Footy gods are smiling on us for once - must take advantage.

Yeah but the dumpires overrule the footy gods and will again ensure we get reamed like 5yo at a Catholic priest convention

[Yeahright]

Yesssss guys love the positivity

What the hell - Build it up lads! BUILD IT UP!

I'm tipping Rioli a big game, 4 goals

[Hard Roar Tiger]

Let's see if we can leak a goal in the first 21 seconds today

I expect a performance nothing short of Richmondy

It's like being stuck in a room alone with the annoying sister in law that won't or can't stop talking.

Saturday night's clash with Richmond should show the Giants where they need to be, given the Tigers lead the AFL in forward 50 tackles with 15.4 a game this season. Cameron's men are ranked 17th with only 9.1 a game, two below the competition average.

In terms of pressure acts inside 50, Richmond's Daniel Rioli (12), Jason Castagna (17), and Jack Riewoldt (48) are all ranked inside the AFL's top 50, but Devon Smith (25) is the only Giant to rate a mention and he won't be on the field on Saturday night thanks to a knee injury.

The Giants fare even worse, according to Champion Data's forward 50 pressure factor. They are last in the league, while Richmond's group are ranked second.
