Really like Markov up forward, a quick medium forward who can take a mark and push up the ground is  definitely something we could do with. :shh :shh

VFL Tigers fend off fast-finishing Hawks

Brenton Mann
AFL media
Jul 21, 2019 5:47PM


Richmond VFL fended off a fast-finishing Box Hill on Sunday afternoon at Box Hill City Oval to register a gutsy 14-point win on the road.

The Hawks slammed through six goals to two in a frenetic final term as they strived to celebrate favourite son David Mirra’s 150th game in style.

But the Tigers held their nerve, with a late goal to Callum Coleman-Jones sealing a 14.10 (94) to 12.8 (80) win.

Richmond had plenty going against it in the last quarter. They were down on rotations with the slither of an upset fuelling the reigning premiers on their home deck. But the Tigers’ trust and connection served them well and ensured victory.

With the Hawks charging and Richmond clinging to a two-goal lead, Dan Butler extracted the ball from congestion, flicked the turbo switch and chipped the ball over to Oleg Markov, who handed it to Callum Coleman-Jones, who strolled in unopposed and goaled.

Box Hill methodically pierced the ball from its back half in the last quarter, splitting Richmond’s set up behind the ball.

A run of four goals in the final term injected hope into the hearts of the Box Hill faithful and laid seeds of doubt in the Tiger Army.

However, as the pressure rating rose, so did the trust and confidence of the Tigers. They controlled the tempo of the game as the Hawks eventually ran out of time.

The game was littered with intriguing one-on-one duels, none bigger than the gladiatorial ruck battle between the returning Toby Nankervis and Hawk, Marc Pittonet.

The game couldn’t have started much better for ‘Big Nank’. The premiership ruckman won the opening centre clearance after roving his own tapwork, then slammed the ball onto his right boot, sending the ball inside 50.

Nankervis then delivered a trademark bone-crunching tackle inside Richmond’s forward 50, which would have warmed the hearts of the Tiger Army.

The cult hero drew further applause as he goaled after the quarter-time siren, with the Tigers mobbing their much-loved teammate.

The inclusion of Nankervis had a ripple effect, with budding big-man, Callum Coleman-Jones spending more time in attack, looking razor sharp from the outset.

Coleman-Jones led with authority and his hands were crisp and clean.

With Nankervis managed in the second half, Coleman-Jones assumed the mantle of No.1 once again and took on one of the most imposing ruck duos in the VFL, Hawthorn’s Pittonet and Jonathon Ceglar.

Coleman-Jones more than held his own, nearly taking a contender for mark of the year in the final term and exploded forward to kick the match winner.

Richmond trapped the ball in its forward half to great effect in the first quarter, and was able to capitalise on the scoreboard, with Oleg Markov jagging two goals.

Markov was locked in an athletic duel with Hawks’ defender, Changkuoth Jiath, with both exerting their influence on the contest.

The dynamic Tiger forward netted three goals in the opening half and is looking more at home in attack as the weeks roll on.

Richmond started the second quarter in tremendous fashion as Dan Butler showcased his skills, soccering through a back-heel goal on the goal-line.

Butler showed that he wasn’t a one-trick pony, as he volleyed through his second major in the third term.

The Hawks hit back as the Tigers overused the ball in its front half, with three goals in quick succession to cut the margin to nine points midway through the quarter.

Markov swung the momentum back the Tigers’ way as he eased through his third major.

The Tigers needed a dose of composure when entering their forward 50, which was provided by Jake Aarts.

Aarts marked strongly in front of his opponent on the paint of the forward 50 and could have set his sights on the goals. Instead, he spotted Connor Menadue free in a mountain of space.

Menadue split the middle and steadied the ship in the shadows of half-time.

The goals dried up in the third term as the ball pinged between the arcs, with neither side able to execute when going inside 50.

It was a game of ducks and drakes, with the Hawks attempting to control the ball by foot and march it up the field, as Richmond looked to surge the ball forward by hand.

Menadue broke the drought, as he goaled from an acute angle beyond the arc, sparking a three-goal run for Richmond.

Markov sent his fourth goal through the middle soon after and then Butler’s check-side volley made it three in a row.

Butler’s goal extended the margin to 37 points at three quarter-time, which was cut to 14 points by the time the final siren sounded, as Box Hill stormed home with six of the last eight goals.

Really like Markov up forward, a quick medium forward who can take a mark and push up the ground is  definitely something we could do with. :shh :shh

Caddy already has that covered

Caddy is the kind of forward you like to have in a one on one at the top of the goal square...

Not a bad result on their deck, resting our two most impactful players for a half.

VFL and development coach Craig McRae's summary of how the Tigers’ players performed in last Sunday's Round 16 win over Box Hill.

Patrick Naish

33 disposals, 18 handball receives, nine marks, one goal & four inside-50s

“Returned to really good form. Went back through the wing this round and was back to some of his best form in terms of possession gains, ball use, kicking goals and setting them up. His 33 disposals was a real feature.”

Derek Eggmolesse-Smith

26 disposals, nine marks, five tackles & 10 contested possessions

“A player off half-back that really sets the game up for us well. After playing two AFL games and coming back, he looked like an AFL player. It’s really pleasing to see those guys go up and then come back and play AFL footy at VFL level and he did that with 26 disposals and five tackles. I was really pleased with the contested possession part of his game.”

Connor Menadue

19 disposals, six marks, two goals & four inside-50s

“Played a bit of mid/forward, playing a different role than he has previously. When he drives his legs and gets into space, he can really set the game up for us. His 19 disposals and two goals was really important.”

Luke English

18 disposals, four clearances & four inside-50s

“Continues to develop himself as a midfield/on-baller who has the ability to run with an opponent. He continues to learn his craft, he had 18 disposals and had two shots on goal. He’s improving every week.”

Josh Caddy

18 disposals, six marks, two tackles & two clearances

“Played three quarters on a wing and a little bit of inside mid(field). He looked a class above at times, particularly with his ball use and hard contest. With 18 disposals in three quarters, he was one of our better players.”

Jacob Townsend


18 disposals, one goal, three tackles, six clearances & nine inside-50s

“Always tough, always hard to play on. Thirteen of his 18 disposals were contested and he kicked a nice goal. He had the most inside-50s for the team with nine, including seven clearances. Another solid performance from ‘Towner’.”

Ryan Garthwaite

16 disposals, six marks, nine spoils & five rebound-50s

“Hard to play on as always, with nine spoils, 16 disposals and five rebound-50s. He’s in good form, Ryan.”

Dan Butler

16 disposals, six tackles, two goals & five inside-50s

“Played mainly forward, kicked a couple of really classy goals and did a few tricky kicks off the ground. He had 16 disposals and two goals. He’s playing great footy, just waiting for (AFL) opportunity.”

Noah Balta

15 disposals, eight handball receives, six marks, four tackles & four rebound-50s

“Played back, learning to play the role that the team requires of him. He’s a work in progress but he’s got a lot of upside so we’ll continue to develop him and get him to be the best he can be.”

Callum Coleman-Jones

14 disposals, four marks, four tackles, 12 hit-outs, three clearances & one goal

“Played mainly forward early and looked really dangerous. When Toby (Nankervis) went off, he had to be the main guy up against two really experienced campaigners at this level, probably the best ruck duo in the competition, and he held his own. He kicked a really nice goal, he's in great form.”

Oleg Markov

14 disposals, four goals, four marks & two tackles

“Played as a forward for the third week in a row and kicked four goals, looking really dynamic and dangerous. He gets out the back and he can mark the ball and his pressure is also a feature. He’s someone that we’ve gained in the last three weeks playing a different role.”

Riley Collier-Dawkins


14 disposals, nine tackles, seven clearances, four marks & four inside-50s

“He was tough, with seven clearances, nine contested possessions of his 14 disposals. He was really strong at the ball, I’ve really liked his last few weeks. He’s developing and he’s going to be a nice player for us.”

Ben Miller

10 disposals, five marks & three rebound-50s

“Played back, he looks like he’s improving every week coming back from injury. He was forced to go forward late in the game and is becoming flexible in his role every week. We like his game.”

Toby Nankervis

Eight disposals, 13 hit-outs, one goal & three tackles

“Played the first half and had eight disposals, 13 hit-outs, three clearances and a goal. But it was his tackling that was a feature, particularly in the first quarter where he really set the scene for the team and kicked a goal on the siren, which we all loved to see.”

I like Jayden Short but if he doesn’t find some form soon, the Egg man might steel his spot come finals time.
The Egg has more than shown he can play at the level and after tasting AFL footy, he seems to have lifted to another level.
A big few weeks ahead for Short.

Sorry BT but couldn’t disagree more.

DE-S did okay against a disastrously poor GCS, and was shown up quite significantly v GWS.

At this stage Short is miles ahead of DE-S.

Agree with this.

DE-S really struggled against GWS

Think Baker is the one they they looking as a back up to the Short role

I thought he was ok against GWS.
I couldn’t see what all the negativity was about.
I even went back and watched the reply a couple of times to see if I missed anything, and to be honest I didn’t.
Egg is a beautiful user of the footy from what I have seen and puts his head of the pill.
