Pre-Game 2021 AFL Rnd 1: Richmond vs Carlton.

[kruddler]

They are selected so they are fit to play. That means then that Richmond also has Lynch and Prestia as playing injured. What about the AA defender in Houli? Every supporter can find excuses if they look hard enough.

Im over hearing all the talk every post season then the minute we have anything go against us we revert back to a losing mentality.  I'm over the excuses.

All the hype said we are on the up and ready to play finals. Time to prove it to us long suffering supporters and to the media who rightly so are over all the talk too.

Anything less then a very close game tonight is a massive disappointment IMO. 

Martin
Betts
Williams
Curnow
TDK (I'd pick him over casboult)
Newman (the forgotten man) plays instead of Williamson.
McG would be picked if fit, possibly at the expense of Jack Silvagni
Marchbank if he ever gets fit should be worthy of a spot.
Throw in Kemp who looks the part standing next to Cripps, but is injured for the 2nd year running. He'd be playing ahead of LOB any day of the week.

You have a right to be disappointed and I have a right to be realistic and say I told you so.
