Can Richmond Tigers make the finals now?

Question

Can Richmond Tigers make the finals now?

Answer 1

never happen they will stumble in the last half of the season

Answer 2

not according to mike sheehan.....he reckons they may as well cancel the rest of the home and away season and start with the finals now (he's gotta write something i spose)

really the tiges should have beaten st kilda and western bulldogs - they would have been 5 and 4 (?) i think.

we'll see how they go against teams like adelaide & sydney in the coming weeks to see how they're travelling.

Answer 3

maybe we can,  the only problem is we haven't had many injuries as yet, i guess we've had a few, rains, cotchin, coughlan to name a few but not like we have had over the last few years.

i have always said with a full side Richmond can match most sides but as soon as we loose 5-6 we struggle because our list isn't as strong as most clubs, so them playing well at present is no surprise to me, just as it won't be a surprise  if we go down hill if we get a rush of injuries.

hope the injuries stay away, we could shape the 8 but might just miss out (again)

Answer 4

You look at the side, and the way they've played and think 'Yeah this team goes alright', though too many other teams have more consistency and it would be hard seeing any of the sides in the current top 8 dropping there spot for the Tigers.

Answer 5

still no alas but were not far from it now i think

next year

Answer 6

The Tigers sure will make the finals if they continue to play as a team, like they have over the last couple of weeks. I'll even go as far as saying Richmond will win the GF as soon as 2010 (Cotchin is just going to get better & better with every month that goes by).

Answer 7

NO

Answer 8

I think they are real contenders. they are playing good footy. as for making the finals only time will tell.....

Answer 9

Richmond will finish in their favourite position over the years - NINTH.

Tigers are playing good footy, have bugger all injuries but its hard to see the 8 changing. I would be stoked if we got in, but its unlikely.

Answer 10

na mate good side but its too early to call that.

richmond will finish 12

above, westcoast, freo, melbourne and the mighty BOMBERS!!!!

Answer 11

Yes I do...It's still early days and I really wish that for them.

Answer 12

I don't think so.

But they have surprised me as to how much they have improved on last seasons efforts.

Answer 13

Their morale has certainly lifted and they are exhibiting their skill but I don't picture them as finals contenders just yet, but hey I might be wrong.

Good luck Tigers!

Answer 14

i think they could if they kept going the way thay are then they r a real chance at least they are winning games this yr unlike last yr
