Round 7: the other games. Surely this ladder can't be right?

No, they’ve won by a point!
We lose by 1 and they win by 1- don’t know what this means😊

I know that we're not that far ahead of them, but they've now got a lot of teams to overtake if they want to make the eight.

They’re not making the 8.

Much as I'd like to write them off, I just think it's still a bit early to do so. Although, they might have to beat Geelong in a couple of weeks time?

Very interesting ladder and of course Hardwick will whinge in his presser, he always does

Adelaide tried to save the game rather than win it; plus there were two appalling non-frees that the Pies deserved in the last quarter. Awful umpiring"

Disheartening honestly to see Essendon able to triple our score against Geelong.

We are ways ways out of sorts.

Geelong turned off in the last quarter. They had the game won inside the first 15 minutes.

The non-call when Fogarty cleaned up Murphy is one of the worst non-decisions I’ve ever seen. Four umpires out there, and none of them had the cojones to pay it.

No, they were just exhausted after the long trip from Punt Rd. They left on Friday morning, spent the night sleeping in swags under
the stars in Fed Square and coach Damo showed the team his own three hour highlights reel on the big screen there. The next
morning the Tigers 14 man leadership group decided they had had enough of walking and all went off to get matching 2023 Leadership
Group tattoos. By late Saturday night they were only four blocks from Marvel but that part of town is a bit sketchy so they holed up
at one of the backpacker hostels Dusty owns. Dusty gave the team a 5% discount on the room rate because he's that kind of guy he
is. Tom Lynch set himself up outside on the street as the teams security guard. Yesterday morning everyone slept in so it was a bit
of a rush to Marvel in time for the first bounce. The stress of all that rushing around really took its toll and so they were never
really in the game against the Suns who had it easy in comparison only having to travel down from Queensland. At his press
conference after the game Hardwick complained at length about how easy the non Vic teams had it with scheduling of games.

Yes, it's bizarre, isn't it, how it seems that many Richmond fans don't want to travel to Marvel: which is about 2kms away from the MCG. And probably a little bit easier to get to for many of them.
