Not that I want us getting ahead of ourselves... but our biggest win over Essendon is only 74 points. Only the Adelaide GWM is lower (46). Hopefully we can the upper hand early and go for the throat.

There's nothing more tigerish than a tiger!
Should be a straight forward win but 30+. However, these are the games we've dropped in the past. I do believe this Richmond team is so much better though, so I'm tipping us by 50+.
They may have a win against the GC, who are also pretty awful, but we should bring the reality of their situation back home to them pretty emphatically. Why not 30 goals? Kicked 22 against the GC with a forward line everyone said wouldn't work and Jack only contributed 2 of them.
Win - just the 4 points and any % a bonus. No ruckman, no Jobe Watson (has form in recent years, played injured earlier this year). Show empathy post game, destroy them during the game...
We struggle to beat teams twice in a year... Would love to know the last time we beat Carlton, Collingwood and Essendon twice in the same year... Dig up the history books.

If you're talking about an Easter Monday in probably 1982 I remember that final quarter onslaught well.
Edit: I just looked it up. 1982. Ten goals in the final quarter in front of 90,564. Both teams had 12 goals to 1/2 time. We finished on 25.22.172 to 16.14.110. Seven goals to Wiley, 4 goals to KB and 3 to BT.
What a team that day!

Awesome team - should have won the flag :-\Tony Braxton-Hicks said:
The 74 point win came in 1983, when we were an ordinary team after all of the defections and the Bummers were on their way to a Grand Final and then back-to-back flags. It was a wet day at Windy Hill and I remember a blond CHF from WA named Dan Foley kicked 5. I thought we had a real player there, but he never kicked on much after that.
Need to summon L2R2R. I think he posted the details after we beat Carlton. Been hard to do, though, because this is the first season for a while we're we've played all 3 twice in the one year.Tiger Pops said:
We sort of did it in 1973.
Beat Essendon 2-0 in the home and aways.
Went 1-1 against both Carlton and Collingwood in the home and aways but beat them both in the finals.
Also lost a final to Carlton, so it was 2-2 for the year against them.
Them were the days.

These are the years we've played them at least twice each. 1931 the only flawless year.

Brilliant stuff LTRTR as always!!
It's interesting that it always seems to coincide with us winning a flag (give or take a year!).
Hopefully that's another sign that we're nearly there!!

Don't often get many chances to play them all twice since the number of teams started to increase in 1987.
If we win our first final we won't be allowed to play all three of them twice in the 2016 fixture.
