Must win for the Tigers to start their season the right way but will the young Blues have Tiger fans melting memberships after one round?

It's that time of the year again!

I'm actually pretty pumped with the ins. Looking at our 22 you can see a movement to youth and that's pretty exciting. Regardless of the result it will be nice to see how the young guys go on the big stage. Just a few names include Marchbank, Pickett, Curnow, Petrevski-Seton, Silvagni and Smedts.

Yeah, I figure this is the year you play a lot of youth, probably finish bottom three, but become seriously threatening in the back half of the year and start picking up wins in 2018. Of course, knowing my team, you'll probably win this week :-\

I know it's only Round 1, but...

All the pressure would be on Richmond tonight, yeah?

Without a doubt!

We lose, we're the laughing stock of the AFL again (no offence, Carlton fans).
We win but it's ugly/close, we cop a whole lot of shower and go into next week with no confidence.
We win by 30+, we did what we were meant to and people say we've got a shot next week.

Well, we're expected to win but apparently most 'experts' have us in the bottom 4-6 teams. Make of that what you will.

Common Rance there is an oval shaped ball out there for you to find. Go get and get some points.

Nankervis going backwards as well now down to 30 points after being on 35 minutes ago.
