Have not seen it yet but enjoy most of everything Spike Lee has done.

Fargo is a brilliant series too  I’m not sure which platform it’s on.

I heard series four is coming out soon, I will be watching that for sure.

Already looking forward to the trade period and seeing what we'll do in the off-season... more interested in the scratch matches and how the kids are going tbh...

[Knighter]

Season will get harder to complete every day from here. I understand AFL is desperate to save clubs finances by playing but it will so be apparent to everyone that it can’t continue.

Stop next week award no Premiership and draft picks in current ladder order. Bad luck Fat Ed

[Francois Jackson]

yeah stuff the pies, Call the season off. We have nothing to prove and they will think its the best thing every winning a flag with multiple asterix attached to it

WA and Qld both going to implement compulsory 14 day quarantine for Victorians.  Stick a fork in this season as it’s done

source?

the afl have lost the plot. They should had everyone in those states to begin and end with.

Victoria the laughing stock of the country. Disgrace.

McGowan was interviewed on radio this morning and confirmed it.  Qld premier is quoted saying the same in the paper today.

Although unlikely according to Caro, our game could be moved to Saturday night if need be by the AFL.

"The contingency plan was to show Richmond v St Kilda has a Saturday night game on free-to-air TV, but I don't believe that needs to happen now."

St Kilda versus Richmond

Although no fans will be permitted to attend this match (a restriction which appears likely to extend well into July due to a recent spike in new coronavirus cases in Victoria), St Kilda and Richmond will press ahead with their annual Maddie’s Match this Saturday night.

The match was originally scheduled for Round 3, though after the original fixture past Round 1 was eventually binned, it was announced by the St Kilda Football Club that the new match-up will retain the moniker of Maddie’s Match.

Both the Saints and Tigers will want to lift for this match, with both sides having only won one game each this season.

After thrashing the Western Bulldogs by 39 points in Round 2, the Saints were sent crashing back down to earth against Collingwood last Saturday night, managing only five goals in a 44-point defeat.

Meantime, the Tigers’ struggles since the season resumption continued, being restricted to five goals for the second week in a row and, without Dustin Martin in tow, losing to Hawthorn by 32 points at the MCG last Thursday night.

It put an end to a 14-match undefeated streak which stretched over twelve months, and was also their first defeat at the MCG since their loss to the Geelong Cats in Round 12 last year.

Marlion Pickett’s struggles since his breakthrough grand final showing last year continued, being largely ineffective against the Hawks, while Tom Lynch’s embarrassing missed shot at goal from five metres out in the final quarter summed up the Tigers’ dismal night.

It’s only early days, but Richmond fans need not forget that their side were 1-2 and in 14th place after Round 3 last year before they went on to claim a second flag in three years.

Thus, if there’s ever a good time for the reigning premiers to bounce back, it’s this Saturday night.

Prediction: Richmond by 14 points.

Who will win this weekend? Round 4 tips and predictions

St Kilda versus Richmond

i]Saturday, 4:35pm, Marvel Stadium[/i]

This weekend represents a chance for both St Kilda and Richmond to record a second win in this condensed 2020 season.

Both clubs head into the fifth edition of 'Maddie’s Match' on the back of Round 3 defeats and will be keen to swiftly return to the winners list.

The Tigers have kicked 10 goals in two weeks and were held goalless in consecutive first quarters for the first time since 1961. Dustin Martin looks to have recovered from a rib injury in a major selection boost for the reigning premiers.

The Saints were brought back down to earth by Collingwood last weekend but will get another chance to pit themselves against another premiership fancy.

Skipper Jarryn Geary missed the match against the Magpies because of a minor hamstring strain but is in the mix to face the Tigers.

Richmond has won the last two meetings by an average margin of 43 points.

Tip: Richmond by 15 points.

Can the Tigers rediscover their mojo?

Richmond have been kept to just five goals each of the past two games and seem a distance off their all-conquering best. Most pundits trust that the Tigers can recapture somewhere near their best form, but an unexpected loss to the Saints would have that trust waning considerably.

[Rampsation]

Richmond by a goal. 6 points margin. We need to win today.

[one-eyed]

Paddy Ryder out for the Saints. So they are now going with just one ruckman as well.

No late changes for us.
