"There's genuine concerns over Richmond now."

Kane Cornes isn't writing the Tigers off, but believes they have a lot of work to do if they make it four flags in five years.

Watch here: https://twitter.com/FootyonNine/status/1391184873470275584

Cornes said we're not one of the top 4 or top 5 sides right now and we're also missing Cotchin, Prestia, Lambert & Edwards.

Browny said in the past 4 years we didn't concede 8 goal quarters.

Lloyd added that to make the top 4 you need to be 16-6 so Richmond can only lose two more games. He believes we will have to win it the hard way from outside the top 4.

My alarm bells are ringing, hope I’m wrong but I think we are done.

Ladder predictor had us finish 8th and a fight with GWS for that last spot.

I had us losing to all teams above us including Brisbane twice, west coke and Geelong and we beat all teams below us including GWS twice.

Final 8

Brisbane
Bulldogs
Port
Geelong
Melbourne
West Coke
Sydney
Richmond

1st week elimination final vs Dees at the G.  :shh
 :rollin

We can win it from 8th like Perkins in Atlanta Olympics 1996.

Week 1
Bris v Cats  -  Lions prelim
Dogs v Port -  Dogs prelim
Melb v Rich -   :shh  :rollin
WC  v Syd  - west coke win

Week 2
Cats v Tigers  :shh :shh  :rollin 
Port v WC.     Port wins.

Prelim
Lions v PA. Lions win.
Dogs v Tigers  :shh :shh :shh :rollin

Grand final MCG
Lions v Tigers  :shh :shh :shh :shh :rollin :gotigers

I have us at 7-5 going into the bye and 15-7 at the end of the year which is usually enough to be anywhere around 3-5.

Still possible but we'd need to make sure there are no slip ups against the lower teams and make sure we get key operators back and firing after the bye.

When you start looking at the ladder predictor after 8 games you know you have some concerns about us. 
We will make the 8 but not by much and we have fallen down the pecking order due to our form and other teams improving.

Have some teams peaked to early.
I can think of 4 that might be struggling as of Rd 22
