Not the worst idea.They might use Hardy on Elliott.
Also agree re: Swans. Formline suggests they are dead set horrible.

Tigers arguably the most over-rated team in the comp - not just based on a very ordinary game of football last night against the Lions who manged to be even more ordinary themselves.
The Tigers have really had a dream draw yet sit only 9th after 5 games....they will likely drop down the ladder as the round is completed.
And this is despite playing 5 teams who all currently sit below them on the ladder (with only one, Collingwood, likely to be above them by the end of Round 5): Lions (18th), Blues (17th), GCS (12th), WB (11th) & Pies (10th).
The better teams in the comp will make mince meat of them you'd think when they get hold of them unless something drastic changes.
I guess that's what happens when you recruit & play so many average footballers from other clubs.
I dont think anyone really rates Richmond anymore.
It wont be long until they are in the same position as Carlton with their supporters calling for a rebuild and sackings.
WE WILL SMASH NORTH

We played them first round

Ummmmmmmmmmm
If we learnt one thing from the Freo game, i pray to god that its that leaving a loose man in defence often kills us. That lesson will apply to Collingwood, big time, next week. Buckley likes the loose man, banking on his guys spreading to space ( Sidebottom, Beams, Swan, Pendles) better than the opposition. Go man on man, make it highly accountable and as Pendlebury said last year " some of our guys cheated".
A game of 2 halves. Pies dominated to half time, Roos spudded thing up big time all afternoon but managed to nullify them after half time. Pies had two forwards for the day, Cloke for the first half and Elliott for the last quarter, their set shots on goal were deplorable. Only a total of 6 goals kicked by both teams after half time.
They might use Hardy on Elliott.
I'd prefer Bags. He thrashed Elliott on Anzac day last year.
Did we win?We played them first round
WE WILL SMASH NORTH
North are horrible. Sydney must really be struggling to have lost at home to this mob.
I guess we'll find out for sure about Sydney over the next few hours.
Freo and Swans with atrocious skills
what a bizarre year so far. almost every side has had some peaks and troughs, just when you think you have a read on formlines.
Spewin. I thought collinwombles were no good this year, but they looked alright for the bits I saw.
freo fkin useless! just watched the 2nd quarter - terrible.
Either, judging by last weeks game, we are really, really bad or freo has caught the Windy Hill virus!

Ballantyne does look legitimately crook.
I guess that's what happens when your other small forward can't catch a plane.

Or maybe Sydney are starting to come good?
I would rate them with 1 of the top 2 lists in the AFL.
They have struggled since the start of the season but in my opinion it was only a matter of time before it all clicked for them.

have they played anyone decent yet
The SCG is a really really ■■■■ AFL oval.
Can you imagine if we played a grand final in this backward space?
Freo don't look so good when the umps are not on their side.
Geez freo got up and about for us last week or we were going at about 60%
