Port shat themselves and the Lions dropped a golden opportunity in 2020.
It really should have been a Port V Lions Granny. How Geelong even made it is amazing.
But Richmond won it and thats all the record books will say. Yes they are a great side, but I believe have drawn three of the weakest GF opponents you could wish for.
Yes its possible they could go all the way again. But it's no certainty. There's plenty of teams that could do it this year. Lets wait and see.
Stop being so depressed that Richmond are a good side. You are obsessed.

Yep both Power and Brisbane choked and Geelong was lucky too.
But when it comes to finals and the GF Richmond win it all the time they dont have an opponent come the GF.
Sort of like Hawthorn 2013-2015 they had sydney freo and west coast and all poor in the GF.
Richmond had crows (2020 wooden spooners),GWS (now a mid table team) and Geelong (did not show up in 2020 GF)
Richmond 2021 premiers and easy too.
I do feel though 2022 things will go against them and teams will improve alot more and the list at Richmond will be another year older and they must probably have to let go some players due to salary cap etc....... So i give 2021 this year to the tigers then the down hill slide begins.
But its a long way to go we have not even had round 1 as yet.

As long as the umps don’t get them over the line tonight I’ll be happy, but Port need to be at least 50 up at 3/4 time for me not to be worried.piedys wrote:Yo broLazza! Well, Port are still well and truly in the hunt, and facing Welfare with 2/3 whistle-happy maggots that got them over the line last week against Lions.
Makes for some must-see viewing tomorrow night, that is for sure!
I’d go Melb or port any day, preferably Melb!
As for what anyone else thinks I could not give a ****! Footy is the one domain in my life where I call all the Shots! The fear in people’s eyes when I mention football has to be seen to be believed, and I really don’t care if it’s becaus I’ve bored them to death!
You cant fix stupid, turns out you cant quarantine it either!

Nah I hate Port more, particularly with the issue surrounding the jumpers and colours.Presti35 wrote:If he were still here, my grandfather would slap me if he knew I was supporting the Dees... So go to whichever team wins tomorrow nights Prelim.
Therefore, I hope Melbourne wins.

This year, they have looked like having the most balanced playing list in the AFL. e.g. from WB's viewpoint, it's always a worry that their defence might be missing a key tall...
