[Jono]

Ah yes, giving Sam Newman a say on race.

Was an awesome game. Singing the Tiges song in a Hawthorn pub...

In thirty ish years of following Richmond, I've never thought we could win a flag in any year.

this year I actually do.

 

[Jono]

oh its on. need Sydney to drop a game though.

I really don't want to end up 5th, cop North or something in the first week of finals and be eliminated again. that would be mega wahhhhhhhh

Brett Deledio is such a great footballer. Heavily underrated.

Yep. that Freo game could be costly.

 

[Redbacks]

Crows are standing with Goodes by rolling over for an easy Swan win.

Just looking at Sydney's run home. Geelong the only one they could drop imo, so Tigers top 4 hopes pretty up against it despite Friday night's heroics.

If you run the table you are more likely to catch West Coast, they have Hawthorn next week coming off the loss, Freo the week after and they have to go to Adelaide who will be fighting for a spot in the 8. They drop those 3 and you jump them if you win out. Moot point though since you will lose in R23 at least.

 

[Jono]

Heh

 

[Redbacks]

Mark Evans was very unconvincing on the Couch. Seems to think head in the sand is the best solution.

 

[Jono]

I kind of interpreted that as he isn't willing to give away anything or pre-empt anything because its not just his decision and there are a lot of final calls still to be made. Panel were ready for lots of questions and he kind of just flat batted.

I think he was right in saying that you don't drastically reduce rotation cap unless you are absolutely sure that will fix everything and not have any other consequences. I also think he's right that its a mix of changes and not one specific change that will fix the game.

But I agree he may as well have not appeared really.

McLachlan on Footy Classified by all accounts was an interview of substance though based on the Footy Classified twitter account quotes. Haven't seen it yet though

 

[Jono]

****house tonight. Just scrappy and mediocre.

Crows were good though

 

[Jono]

Shaun Burgoyne or Jimmy Bartel. Who would you want in your team if you're 10 points down with 10 minutes left in the last quarter?

Both two of the most clutch footballers I've ever seen.

 

[Redbacks]

As much as Sheehan could be annoying. A media person is missing on the couch to ask some tougher questions. Dunstall and Brown are a bit nice with a face to face guest I think.

 

[Jono]

But Sheehan never knows any facts about the game nowadays.

 

[vic_orthdox]

Yup, his time is gone in terms of the current game. Still great with interviews though.
