Essendon has lifted just as we started to maintain possession and go backwards and sideways  instead of quick movement as we did in the first 15 mins of the quarter.

Another goal to Essendon

Hurley back on.

What a farce. Ump right there didn't pay the mark to Ess but then the non-controlling ump pays it  . Thankfully it's a point.

Edwards takes a good mark and then kicks to straight to a Essendon player. Thankfully the Essendon player's kick is as bad.

The brainfades from us are returning under the pressure  .

Another mark to Essendon inside 50 but they miss again.

Houli fiddled around with it as there were no option upfield and slipped over at full-back, holding the ball and Essendon goals

3/4 time

Richmond    5.1     7.6     9.9-63
Essendon    3.5     5.9     8.12-60


Goals: Foley 2, Martin 2, Deledio, Cotchin, Riewoldt, Vickery, Griffiths.


That last 10 minutes was pathetic. As bad as last week.

[mightytiges]

Why when we were almost 4 goals up and with all the momentum did we start to want to just maintain possession in the back-half and go backwards and sideways?!  . That's what started the turnaround and then one bad mistake in defence let Essendon back in the game. Get a killer instinct Tigers  .

[Hard Roar Tiger]

Our clearance work got us in this game silly errors have cost us. Composure tiges
