2011                                                                        2012

The Tigers kicked the last three goals of the game, while restricting St Kilda to three behinds, to win by eight points - the sixth time they have won the fourth quarter in 10 matches this year.

In fact, the Tigers have gone from being an average fourth-quarter team in 2011 - their final-term record was 10 wins, 11 losses and a draw - to coming home harder than any club.

Richmond has kicked more goals - 42 - in final quarters this year than any other team.

Specialists yet have only won 60% of them.  :lol

The Hawks game heavily stacks this in our favour does it not? We did kick 38 of those 42 goals in that 1/4  :lol
