Matty deserves better from his players, they arent putting in and theyll wreck his coaching career shortly.Matty would've learnt well how to hand out a massive spray from Richmond U19s coach Doug Searl. Talk about cranking up the decibels.The problem for Knighter is he went to the board with plenty of faith in the list to get the job and now reality has set in.

Our recent record against the Tigers is pretty good, and we should win without too much trouble this Sunday afternoon, but I wouldn't take it for granted. Swans by six goals (or thereabouts).
The Tigers will come out firing and their form has been pretty good this season. Restricting Richo to the wing will make it tough for them to kick goals and a good job on Nathan Brown is required to avoid a repeat of Port's stuff. Swans should be too strong in the backline and hopefully the forwards get plenty of opportunities to score.Swans by 28.
Richmond have been firing in recent weeks, but there skill level has been letting them down. As a few others have said, it is no certainty this w/e, but we should be able to win if we treat the tiges with a bit of respect.
We have to shut down Richo,Foley and Brown.I dont see why we cant play risky football and take em on,i know we can do it and we can do it well and i know i'm not the only supporter who likes it.The Tigers will be no easy beats this weekend but we should account for them comfortably.
Tiggers = Bummers = Carlton = Melbourne.Though Carlton id probably the one to break away from that bunch of rabble.A win by 10 goals or more is required on our home ground. Anything less is unacceptable.
We always play very well against Richmond. If we play half as good as we did on Saturday, it should be a comfortable win. Swans by 6 goals.

we are 2W and 7L in the red guernsey2006 v Melbourne W (a 5 point win, Hentschel saved us the game by tapping through Davey's goal and making it a point)2006 v Richmond L (when we were dominating)2007 v Carlton W (by a few goals and played awful)2007 v Melbourne L (hadn't won a game all year)2007 v St Kilda L (after kicking the first 5 goals)2007 v Essendon L (below us on the ladder)2007 v Hawthorn L (lead all day)2008 v West Coast L (they're pathetic)2008 v Richmond ?
Doesn't bode well. Every time we play in it, we play like poohe.
If they are going to wear their stupid red strip - they shouldnt even bother going
Perhaps we were just saving ourselves [Essendon game] to upset Richmond birthday party this week? Lets tear them a new one!
Upset what party?? they would love nothing more to beat us and kick us out of finals contention with 2 loses in a row. The Tigers will beat us. They are much quicker than the Bombers who's pace frightened the living daylights out of us. They have a much better functioning forward line with dangerous creative fast forwards who craete soemthing out of nothing and no doubt there midfield can take ours on Lets hope Ratten has the balls change it up. I would love to Adam Hartlett come in for Fisher or Wiggo who honestly do not deserve a game next week. Having Carazzo doing a stopping job on Foley and nothing else cause his kicking is atrocious and a liability.
Judd doesnt have too many quiet games unless he is concussed or similar and I expect him to lead from the front and get a win for his boss idiot Pratt. Richo the man mountain beat us the first game where he was able to rag doll Jamo etc but I expect the coach to have learned from that and I dont see duds like Hughes and Morton kicking 10+ goals this week.. Richmond are crap.......just laugh when I hear the media say their finals chance are still alive.....we will end that hype this week and have them tanking after we belt them.
Carlton are absolute certainties this weekend...
Wouldn't richo lose Setanta too easily running back from the wings? Has to be Waite on Richo to run everywhere and wear him like a rash
1973 sticks in my craw (craw not craw ) after Balme's thuggery and Fowlers elbows up on Big Nick. But injury cruelled us prior to this game and we were missing our most important prime movers in this game: - Barry Armstrong - Trevor Keogh If bogans and no shows want to talk about cheating to win premierships you only have to look at Richmond's 1973 "Thugee" inspired win and their 1980 "Steroid" engineered win.
Must beat this feral, bogan-infested club. They're a filthy, feral club with even worse supporters. They've always annoyed the FLOWER out of me and I was almost was gonna kill a few of them in 2001 when these feral pricks were literally dancing in the aisles when Kouta went down with his ACL. Its the most angry I have ever felt at the footy! Feral bastards! C'mon Blues, beat these ----kickers!
I’m starting to despise Bitchmond, hell I felt sorry for them previously, but I am really, really starting to get a real hatred towards them.
Richmond ruined my 9 year old brothers first match at the footy in Round 1. That alone puts them alongside Collingwood and St Kilda as my most hated teams...
Richmond have had too much to say in the media this week to possibly win this game. It's a simple as that really.
They had a fair bit to say in the lead up to round 1, IIRC, and they got up and won.
After the 1973 Grand Final you could't help but hate those Bastards. Laurie Fowler KO'd Bigh John & that fat bastard Neil Balme broke Geoff Soutby's jaw & the thugs went on to win the GF I aso despised watching that goal hungry KB taunt us over his long career. The only decent thing the Tigers have ever done was to thump the filth in the 1980 GF
Its interesting how they call Cleve and Mitch duds. I reckon they would both get walk up starts in the current Carlton side without question.

Should have our 5th win in a row come 5 o’clock Saturday.Just some players need shutting down like Lids, Foley, Bowden, Newman and Brown.Who is going to kick there goals, they bagged 24 last week tho W.C don’t have any one to stop them, Patty, Fletcher and Lovett-murrey more then enough I would like to see Patty go to young jack riewoldt, that way he can relax and get some of his own ball, he has had some huge jobs Thinking Nash will have a blinder 30 disposals plusThinking of betting on this game but dunno over 39 points or under
Lucas + Lloyd + Hille + No Richo + Symonds is a crab = Essendon 39.5+
we'll destroy them. everyone stop whinging about injuries and look at their team.Riewoldt is their best available tall forwad and maguane or someone similar is their best tall defender.Symonds is there ruck.obviously I've done zero, research but that's the point, if you have to research to find out who their structure is based around then there's no point worrying about it.Our midfield poos on there's too by the way.
We will smash them in the rucksimmonds is poo and when hes actually got the ball he knows only to kick backwards or sideways no poo u watch himIts gonna be a great 75000 and WE WILL WIN
the over confidence around this place is disturbing, we can hardly name a side of 22 players and if we lose this place will undeservedly go beserk
Hardly field a side? same side as beat brisbane minus to very good players and plus two players with something to prove.if that side can't beat richmond who are even more crippled with more key injuries then we might aswell Jump on Rem's bandwagon and be afraid of carlton.
