AFL rejected Norfs sale of there game to eagles
Nice. That'll give the Eagles something else to whinge about. They would have been looking forward to an extra game at their security blanket AKA Optus Stadium :mhihi

I'm having fun thinking about what footy historians will think of the Tigers this year.

They will look at our listed defenders and their jaws will drop:

Vlastuin Rance Astbury

Balta Grimes Houli

Best ever?

Poor Bakes, Shorty, Eggs, Broad.....

Can't get a dual premiership player in there!

People on here are delusional if they think there is any chance at all of Victorian fans seeing this years GF... literally 0% chance
but delusions come true.

Or is that magic happens?
Convoy through Albury, up the Hume to the Pacific Motorway, camp out in eZy's top paddock, stand-up paddleboard up the coast to the Brisbane River. Smash and grab post game at the Breakfast Creek Hotel, then back to Byron for post-premiership fortnight.

To win a premiership you need to win at least 3 consecutive finals.

Either:
3 out of 3 games (top 4 team that win first week)
3 out of 4 games (top 4 team that lose first week)
4 out of 4 games (5th to 8th placed teams)

In the last 20 games, Richmond have won 4 out of 5 games at a % of 133%. (this includes last year's final series). (15.5 wins)

The other contenders over their last 20 games have won only around 2 out of 3 games. (13 or 14 wins.)

We definitely still have the best form, but this will be offset by Brisbane, Port and West Coast getting home finals. Port in Adelaide, WC in Perth will be tough assignments. They have great opportunity this year. Would help us significantly if Port and West Coast drop games on the run home.

Who can meet the challenge of 3 consecutive wins against the best teams? I know Richmond can.

If we get a choice, I reckon we will choose Metricon over Gabba for our games.

I reckon WC and Geelong will select Adelaide oval if they get to choose the venue against us. Brisbane will get home games at Gabba, Port at Adelaide Oval.

Of all the finals venues, I think the narrow adelaide oval is our least preferred venue.

Agree on Adelaide Oval. We don't have a great record there.
