St Kilda will play Richmond.
I look forward to not having to list a second game, here.

And I got my wish.
In week 2, there will just be one non-Collingwood game. Meanwhile, the West Coast Eagles players - and all their very lovely supporters - can enjoy feasting on their own livers. |

| You think? I thought the St Kilda v Footscray game was an error-fest and that St Kilda's backline looked dreadfully shaky. I actually can't see them getting within 8 goals of Richmond on their form today. |

History tells us the the QF loser almost always win week 2. They don’t end up to 4 for no reason.
No chance We’ll see both Richmond and Geelong lose

Saints to be without Long (suspended), Ryder (Injured) and maybe Carlisle (Wife due to give birth).
That'll suit Richmond with Lynch coming back.
Wonder if the Saints will regret retiring Nathan Brown only a few weeks ago?

Yes, it can be an illusion to think the QF loser is a goner. More likely than not, they'll advance to the Prelim.
Though since 2014, it's become more frequent for them to be eliminated than it was between 2000-2013.
Sides that have gone out in straight sets since 2000:
- Port Adelaide (2001)
- West Coast (2007)
- Geelong (2014)
- Fremantle (2014)
- Sydney (2015)
- Hawthorn (2016)
- Hawthorn (2018)
- Brisbane (2019)

I hope Geelong 2020 is added to that list.

Everything going right for the Tigers.
Saints falling apart at the seams.

On the positive side, it's probably unusual for the EF winners to have beaten their QF loser opponents in the regular season, as St. K and Collingwood have done.
St. K's problem is they will be key men down. Richmond, of course, have zero injuries. |

Incorrect. Richmond's injury list is:
J. Jess. Calf - 2 weeks. |

Richmond:
Tom Lynch - Hamstring (Test)
Jack Higgins - Calf (1-2 weeks)
Noah Cumberland - ACL (Season)
Bigoa Nyuon - Shoulder (Season)
Ivan Soldo - Knee (Season)
Callum Coleman-Jones - Suspension (Seven matches)
Sydney Stack - Suspension (Seven matches)
Lynch should be back, but we'll see.

Sad, but true.
With Ryder and Carlisle in, you never know. But without them, it's gonna be really tough.
