Complete embarrassment. Bartlett, Dale Weightman & Mal Brown.
Dud, dud & dud as commentators. Tried to copy what Ed had originated and it was a sad, pathetic parody that is symptomatic of the entire club.
Richmond should be stamped with a "use by" date of 1982.

Forget the Richmond rabble .... gone again.

Kangas, now there's a topic... beaten Port, Swans and dockers.

Under the radar or what?

No we are under the radar I think. We have beaten both the Swans and the Kangas. Be very afraid Freo and Port.

How the **** are the Kangaroos in the top 8? Have they played GWS and Lions twice already or something?

This is a very poor year obviously, Richmond are just an embarrassment and may be another 10 years for them to recover from a rare finals appearance last year.

I can't watch the "press red" stuff . The picture is just crap and no amount of commentary can do anything to polish the experience up. Would rather watch the normal HD channel with the volume down.

If I'm not mistaken, a few years ago the AFL highlighted stats from early 2000 that any team that had a 30 point lead at any stage of the game, went on to win 95% of the time...

LOL. Bartlett, Weightman and Mal Brown? Surely they must have been taking the piss. Who would want to listen to them? :shock:

Only team apart from Port to have beaten two of the top four teams (that is, the top four after we beat Melbourne tomorrow). Won against Sydney, Port and West Coast among others.

After reading this thread I turned over, it was just Bartlett talking, the other 2 weren't allowed to say a word

Its a poor year without doubt. Sydney and Roos were shit when we played them and tonight hasn't changed my mind on the Roos.

Definitely looking forward to us playing Hawks and Port, could be a real contender this year if we can take it up to them

Actually just looking at the top 4 after tomorrow and really we are undefeated against the top 4 this year!

I think it's 92% win rate once a team is 5+ goals.

Which means if your 5 goals down your only a 8% chance.

Some people refer to the first to 100 points rule, which is a little pointless Imo considering so many games are determined under 100 points and it's only known in the 4th quarter.

I keep the 5 goal rule in my head. Very unlikely to make up that margin. Team always needs to use a lot of petrol to reign that margin in. Under 5 always seems gettable with a good 10 min patch.

Both Roos and Pies did it quickly. Ie 10-15 min patch and didn't burn too much petrol.
