The Pies will only be one game behind us on the ladder after tonight's win.  It seems that it will take 16+ wins to make top 4 and 13 to make the 8.  You can't afford to drop any games your supposed to or should win!!

Interesting times.

Good to see we are around the mark but not playing great footy at all.
The bonus of this is not having the spotlight on us and the focus is on the Eagles and clubs like Melbourne and to a lesser extent n0rf.
I would expect that we start to wind things up from around round 16 or so and really start to build towards finals

Does anyone else feel the same way, or would they want to boast about being minor premiers? I can never remember minor premiers anyway...

Sydney in 4th and not mentioned at all in the media at the moment. I'd rather fly under the radar.

in a way thats true. I have been only thinking about this coming game for a while. Nothing pleases me more than beating up on this bunch of drug taking pigs.

Don't think we are the number 1 seed at the moment.

At the moment I reckon we are 3rd or 4th in the pecking order.

We have a lot of upside but this doesn't mean it will automatically happen.

Our next stretch of matches determine our season.

I think the bye might come at a good time to reset, get some blokes back.

Yes, that's what I said. And it didn't help them win the flag. That's my point.

"If they keep themselves in the Top 2, which you would fully expect, then you've got to come and meet them in Finals at the G... that's why Richmond are going to spend the whole year as flag favourites."

Gerard Whateley is convinced Richmond are the team to beat in 2018 #AFL360 🐯🐯🐯

99% of Tiger supporters believe we can go back-to-back  ;D.



And 31% of all fans reckon we'll win it again.
