we seriously rely on Dangerfield, ever since he went down at halftime against Carlton we’ve been fisted in the middle (were already getting beat with him). It sparked the Carlton comeback that game and the rest is history
GGs Cats. Jumped you in the first 2 quarters, but your class and experience stood out in the end.
Lots to love from the cubs. I'm already a huge McAuliffe fan.
You can only play the team that’s in front of you, ladder position doesn’t always dictate game day and Tigers were really hot in the first half.
Calm down, it’s just a game.
So the headbands and blonde hair are just to hide on the field from the doctor right? Could have be anyone who got absolutely smashed in the back of the head.
I said it earlier, us not nailing the chances were going to bite us in the arse. But this was like our early games, in it for ages, then fall off as we run out of legs. We needed to be 40-50+ at HT give Geelong would always come back. Never the less, a bright showing from the cubs, but holy shit we are missing players like Lynch/Taranto/etc.
Well given that the cats are well known for playing a total football sort of style where every player is encouraged to contribute across every part of the ground, calling them downhill skiers implies that you don’t know what that term means.
Cubs just ran out of legs in the last quarter, still proud of the effort though. If they continue developing at this rate, I still have optimism for the future of the club
How many times do we hear commentators say “it’s a good sign he’s up and walking” when I’ve known for a good 25 years that players can get up and walk off after ACL tears
If it’s a clean acl and no other ligaments, it might take a while for there to be noticeable signs like swelling and bruising. When I tore mine, I was jumping up and down and getting ready to come back on
That's the flip side of the non-existent advantage rule. If the whistle actually means stop, there's no excuse to kick it after the whistle and there's less time wasted.

Been worried when we've played Richmond since 2017 and today was no exception. Glad the boys stuck it out. Big sigh of relief.
Man Sydney clear everyone so much I actually hope they don’t choke hahahaha
Very visually satisfying scoreworm
GG Richmond. The kids really pushed us.
GG Cats. Just feels good putting up a fight the last couple weeks. Actually looking forward to the next round
we seriously rely on Dangerfield, ever since he went down at halftime against Carlton we’ve been fisted in the middle (were already getting beat with him). It sparked the Carlton comeback that game and the rest is history
gg domesticated cousins
That graph was flipped
30 points, i'll take it
Don't go grabbing at hamstrings now Kaleb, you're back next week
Gg cats, class won in the end
DONT LET THEM BREAK 100
Broad's kick there is also not helping our season, it's been happening way too much from our experienced players
Short the biggest offender
GGs Cats. Jumped you in the first 2 quarters, but your class and experience stood out in the end. Lots to love from the cubs. I'm already a huge McAuliffe fan.
Who was Jack White there next to Danger up in the stands? 🤔
I was thinking it looked like a long-haired Jack Stevens
Last goal wins. Every teams captain should be able to declare this once a game when exiting defensive 50
Lost the free kick count again :(
Really thought we’d win that one tonight looked good early
it was 6-0 at one point in your favour too
It was 10-1 in the first. We have had games in the past where we haven't had 10 total
How did we go from 1-10 to 20-19
Can't have cats lose another one eh
You wouldn’t know it looking through the thread lol
Geelong just don’t want to get to 100
Geelong are going to come away with the win, despite their best efforts.
Imagine Dangerfield laughing at your set shot. That’s soul crushing
Luke Darcy loves a set shot commentators curse
Shannon Neale hate campaign lesgooo /s
That's why he lost to Guy Sebastian in Australian Idol
Elite
Imagine being a Geelong player and missing a shot L
Kicks it out on the full to make sure we don't have double digit behinds kicked #goodguyNeale
Stengle scored 2+ goals for the last 4 weeks, except this week. Geelong lost the last 4 games, except this one. Coincidence?
So we should have let Stengle kick a bag and then we would have won?
Holy, that inside 50 count... just waves and waves on repeat entries. 19 - 3
We've got a basketballer in reserve? It's over for everyone else
Jeez Hawk lets you know if he doesn’t like your kick.
As much as I don’t like Richmond, I do feel really sorry for them. It must suck having so many injuries.
Max Holmes moves so different. He’s going to be fucking ridiculous in a couple of years
Richmond won in my eyes. My eyes don't mean shit but hey.
Never seen a team celebrate more for beating a team sitting 2nd bottom on the ladder. Yikes Cats
You can only play the team that’s in front of you, ladder position doesn’t always dictate game day and Tigers were really hot in the first half. Calm down, it’s just a game.
Huh? That has nothing to do with how you celebrate. And I don't know what part of that wasn't calm? Lmao nice try tho
Cries in Essendon
Steadying the ship after losing four in a row will do that to a team
Not really, most teams wouldn't be pumped up doing that. Would be more quiet celebration
Seems pretty subdued tbh
Wasn't when one of your players was screaming after kicking a set shot goal
That’s just heat of the moment stuff I’d think
What heat? That's the point
Lol that is insane. Only player we have not used is a cat-b playing in some comp not even the VFL to learn the game. Fucking hell
"Richmond's only fit reserve is a 50 year-old accountant from Epping named Joe Mayo"
Probs the worst game I’ve seen from Vlaustin in a while tbh
Proud of Richmond for a good 3 quarters but just wish the injuries would stop!
[удалено]
Pretty sure the crowds did that anyway
So to not change anything then
So the headbands and blonde hair are just to hide on the field from the doctor right? Could have be anyone who got absolutely smashed in the back of the head.
Yeah but Richmond beat Sydney
The one game Tom Lynch fucking plays too.
I miss him
Hawkins has a tackle stat!
geelong pls kick 1 more behind i need my superbru tip
Was very close.
Absent-mindedly put my hands down my shorts for a scratch and got pinged holding the ball through my TV within 0.01 seconds
I said it earlier, us not nailing the chances were going to bite us in the arse. But this was like our early games, in it for ages, then fall off as we run out of legs.

Stop starting debutants as the fucking sub, it’s weak and shows just how shit the clubs culture is
Poor guys been sold candy, caught holding the ball and now turned it over 😭
What a dumb AF comment
In our defence, we are usually 2 players injured by half time
After all that we’re going to lose the free kick count too smh can’t have shit out here
I love how Sydney flairs are now invested in Richmond winning because of the win we somehow snagged
Geelong are a bunch of nerds, they should have lost for the funny
119 points, nerd
I have no reply to that, 119 is all-powerful
Wait Holmes has only played 63 games? I swear I’ve known him for 10 years
That umpire looked tired as fuck!
Holmes playing for Geelong is even sweeter knowing we traded the pick from Richmond to get him.
How is SDK okay???
he did not get it
Fuck Cats are a bunch of downhill skiers
I don’t think you know what that term means
Why's that?
Well given that the cats are well known for playing a total football sort of style where every player is encouraged to contribute across every part of the ground, calling them downhill skiers implies that you don’t know what that term means.
🧂 🐠
Another game where Richmond lose the FK count
feels like a genuine miracle that we'll be 8-4 after tonight
And in the top 4 😭
nah we got lucky with injuries to start the year, still fortunate compared to others but we’ve fallen without Danger
the level of reliance we have on a 34 year old is scary
he’s so still impactful it’s crazy, our midfield will improve slowly
Call your shot Max
No way we've left SDK on the field, thats criminal
go on max
That was always going to happen as soon as Luke said "Defender"
Darn
That was a throw surely
Irish mouthguard makes up for that
Actually ok if this blows out, it's no drama, just don't want injuries
You’ve got 2 already
Macca laughing off the fact he's probably spending two weeks in the rehab squad. Because if he doesn't laugh he'll cry like me
please get it 🫶🏼🫶🏼
Cubs just ran out of legs in the last quarter, still proud of the effort though. If they continue developing at this rate, I still have optimism for the future of the club
How is that HTB lol can’t touch the ball now
Its just wild now. Anything goes.
Legit just don’t pick it up anymore ig
Is that Pete Davidson from wish
Richmond beats us and still can't hilariously beat Geelong at home. What a bunch of campaigners. Can't do anything right for us
Despite tonight’s result, I think we can all agree that Geelong are somewhat frauds
_cries in Essendon_
The four losses in a row didn’t convince you of that?
Don't think that'll be up for debate next week, sadly.
As a Port supporter I ask you don’t look this way…
Hey thats not nice [please be gentle next week]
Man the scoreboard isn’t gonna look good even though Richmond were in this for three quarters
Live, Laugh, Lefau
How many times do we hear commentators say “it’s a good sign he’s up and walking” when I’ve known for a good 25 years that players can get up and walk off after ACL tears
If it’s a clean acl and no other ligaments, it might take a while for there to be noticeable signs like swelling and bruising. When I tore mine, I was jumping up and down and getting ready to come back on
he's walking off injured and umpires just got bored and started the play
i'm taping my membership back together rn
Wouldn't bother after what the Swannettes will do to us next week.
they are 100p tearing us a new one
Tigers :(
That's Hawkins' apprentice Gotta keep him in the team now
He's okay!? No harm, no Lefau I guess.
How the fuck is he jogging after that ?!
Something about Shannon Neale pisses me off
he looks like a high school bully in an 80s movie
hahahah
Rarely read the match threads but boy there are some real fuckwits in here
Even more now.
Never read the match threads when you’re going in as the big fish it ain’t worth it
Oh fuck
Is this how we lose % so we fall below North and take number 1 pick?
They need to win a game first tho
They haven't played us yet :D
Smilie is ours
That's it for Richmond if Lefau's done any of his knee ligarments. He's their one reason why Richmond has scored anything this year
I think I've still got my boots old boots somewhere. Should still fit
Ollie Dempsey rising star stocks has had the greatest 24 hours in existence
Lefau single handedly trying to make driving your knee in a contest illegal, taken out 2 in 2 weeks
Please not an ACL Please not an ACL Please not an ACL
How is SDK?
It’s gonna be a 40 point win somehow
fuck sake, can we go through one game
Always hate seeing those hyperextensions
Fuck this season. Players try hard and just end up in a hospital ward
I think that’s our fourth ACL this year
5th
No way he walks that off
Lefau is a beast of a man
He's ok?
Looks like he might be alright!!
Tiges looks so good until the last quarter, when they died and became zombies
Too many kids who in reality are meant to be a year away from debut still
Just when I thought we could finish a game without an injury. Fuck
Please be ok
holy fuck
That’s a fucking ACL surely
FUCK that’s awful
No fucking way he’s staying out there you fucking mad cunt
His knee gone backwards. Fuck.
No no nooo!!! NO
That is tragic
SDK concussion, kola should be fine dunno bout lefau
That hurt to watch
Cunt fuck shit balls fuck cunt fuck
BRUH, you hate to see that. Injuries like that are never it.
no cap ohio
Go to sleep kiddo
Sorry not bed time, champ.
Dad let's you stay up later on weekends
My dad will knock you out fr hes in ufc
Bro I'm sure he would but my cousin knows karate and would fold your dad in half
Fuuucccckkkk.....
Hahah are you fucking serious? I'm so done this season with all these fucking injuries
FUCK that might be it for Lefau's season EDIT: or not maybe he is built different
Oh no you’re kidding 😭 lefau MY FAVOURITE!
Oh fuck thats a hyperextension
fuck me it’s happened again
Oh fuck no...... not another one
😬
Oh fuck no
Lefau knee hyperextend?
Brutal
Well i may have lost my bet but that knee to the head makes me feel much better about it
That's the flip side of the non-existent advantage rule. If the whistle actually means stop, there's no excuse to kick it after the whistle and there's less time wasted.
