Title: Playing in patches (Age)

We've been the 3rd best team for time being in front on the scoreboard  :P.

Like North Melbourne, Richmond is also paying a high price for its lapses in games. The Tigers have won one more quarter of football than Geelong this season, and having led for 64 per cent of game time, are behind only the Hawks and Roos for percentage of time spent in front.

Yet they remain 10th on the ladder. Against Collingwood, Richmond won two quarters and narrowly lost another. But in the other, game-killing, 30 minutes, it conceded eight goals while scoring just two.

Against Geelong, it trailed by five points at half-time before being outscored by 11 goals to five in the second half.
