The run home:

17 October 2023


11. Richmond
12 points (three wins, four losses), 92 per cent
Injuries have cruelled Richmond's season, and while the Tigers got away with slow starts earlier this year, they no longer have the available players to pull off their run-down victories. Theoretically, they should be too strong for Hawthorn, but the Hawks love an upset win and the game is being played in Cairns. The Cats follow at Ikon Park, with the visitors having too much midfield depth, and the Pies may be a bridge too far.

The run home
R8: Hawthorn @ Cazalys Stadium
R9: Geelong @ Ikon Park
R10: Collingwood @ Victoria Park

Stepping up: The biggest improvers this season

By Gemma Bastiani

17 October 2023


Kate Dempsey (Richmond)
 
                         Career avg.           2023 average
                        before 2023

Disposals                11.9                        20.7

Inside 50s                1.6                          3.6

Intercepts                2.3                          4.3

Metres Gained       188.5                      383.3


Dempsey's tireless work out on the wing has become one of the most important parts of Richmond's game this season, partly thanks to Dempsey's significant improvement, and partly due to her teammates' better understanding of how to make best use of their wingers. No doubt challenging for Richmond's best and fairest, Dempsey has been crucial in linking the midfield and forward line.

You are correct Chuck

She's been either 2-4 or 3-4 weeks since she got injured which was round 1

So, so far she's missed 6 weeks

Don't know why they just don't say season for..

Full R8 preview: Hawthorn vs Richmond

By Gemma Bastiani
afl.com.au
20 October 2023


A trip to Cairns to face the Hawks is an opportunity for Richmond to get its season back on track after a frustrating month of results. This one is a must-win for the Tigers should they remain any chance for a second consecutive finals series. Their captain Katie Brennan and boom Hawthorn recruit Greta Bodey will each run out for career game No.50, so both sides will be on a mission to get the job done for their milestone forward.

Hawthorn is the highest tackling team the competition has ever seen, averaging 81.1 tackles per game thanks to its defend first mentality. It is a style that can really take opposition teams away from how they want to play, and it is in the face of this pressure that Richmond must stand tall. As recent weeks have shown, as long as Richmond is in touching distance come the final quarter, they are in with a shot, always pushing hard late in games to snatch a win.

Tip: The Tigers will get some reprieve. Richmond by 10 points.

Fumbly at the crucial moment so far.

Dempsey quick kick inside 50 and McClelland playing in front marks 35 out. Misses though.

Cox takes the intercept mark at HB. Gets 50. Goes inside 50. Brennan crumbs, dodges and snaps and it bounces through thanks to a good shepherd in the goalsquare.

Dominating the stats (aside from the tackles) but we are so inefficient and wasteful choosing the wrong option and not doing the basics nowhere near well enough.

Most of the quarter has been in the Hawks' F50. We finally get it forward.

Throw-in 30 out. Free to McClelland in the tackle. Then Brennan and Hosking gets dumped off the ball. So, 50 and a goal  :gotigers.

Ball-up 40 out. Free to Yassir. Doesn't make the distance and spoiled for a throw-in.

Kick-to-kick in and out of our F50 as we are just bombing it.

Dempsey finally finds Lynch who takes a little speckie and marks 40 out. Again we can't score from that distance.

Hawthorn    2.0     3.2     4.5     4.6-30

Goals: Brennan 2, McClelland, Jones, Yassir, Greiser.


Egan was the key in that last quarter. Won the ball and clearances at the source and gave us time inside forward-half and inside F50.

Take the 4 points and move on. Once again we were left to chase the game because we were mostly poor and disorganised as a team aside from that last quarter. A tough ask to make finals the way we are playing as we won't get away with being that poor for that long against Geelong or Collingwood.

ps. Well done Katie on your 50 and getting the win :clapping.

Fast-finishing Tigers snatch victory from Hawks to stay finals race

Richmond has pulled off a fourth-quarter comeback to score an 11-point win over Hawthorn in Cairns

----------------------------------

A LATE goal to Emelia Yassir has helped Richmond to its first win in four games, putting their finals campaign back on track with an 11-point victory over Hawthorn at Cazaly's Stadium in Cairns on Friday night.

Separated by one point at half-time and down by nine entering the last quarter, the Tigers pulled off a 6.5 (41) to 4.6 (30) come-from-behind victory to keep their finals hopes alive.

Midfield duo Monique Conti (35 disposals, seven clearances) and Grace Egan (28, 5) were typically influential for Richmond, while Hawthorn was led by Emily Bates (18, four) and Jasmine Fleming (18, one).

Hawthorn's Irish import Aine McDonagh kicked the opening goal before Tigers skipper Katie Brennan slotted two unanswered majors to celebrate her 50th game in style.

Fellow 50-gamer Greta Bodey put boot to ball to snatch her own goal before quarter-time.

A skirmish erupted in the second term after Brennan took exception to a tackle by Mattea Breed on Laura McClelland.

McClelland was gifted a 50m penalty following a bump against Sarah Hosking by Sophie Locke and converted from inside the goal square while players were occupied by the tussle.

Bridie Hipwell kicked the only goal of the third quarter to give Hawthorn a game-high nine-point lead.

Richmond rebounded in the last term, with Courtney Jones ending Hawthorn's three-goal run with her first touch of the night, cutting the margin to three points.

Dogged by inaccuracy in front of goal, Yassir reduced the deficit to a single point before finally breaking through on her third attempt.

That put the Tigers ahead by six points with 11 minutes left, before Caitlin Greiser sealed the win with a massive goal from 45m.

With two rounds left, 11th-placed Richmond (4-4) still have a sniff of the finals but face a significant task against sixth-placed Geelong next week, while Hawthorn (14th, 2-6) play their penultimate match against 15th-placed Port Adelaide.

Separated from fifth-placed Essendon by four points, Richmond will need to beat Geelong and Collingwood to have a hope of reaching the finals.

Conti on another level as Tigers win thriller on historic night

Monique Conti has delivered a monster performance as Richmond came from behind to end Hawthorn’s finals chances and keep its own alive in the first AFLW game in Cairns.

21 October 2023


A three-goal final quarter has crushed Richmond’s three-game losing streak and kept its finals hopes alive following a thrilling 11-point win over Hawthorn in Cairns.

The Tigers looked gone for all money when Hawks forward Brodie Hipwell put through a thrilling end-to-end goal to extend her side’s lead to eight points with five minutes left in the third.

But the Tigers found a way back through Courtney Jones, round seven rising star nominee Emelia Yassir and Caitlin Greiser in her first game back from injury.

The trio all kicked goals to power the Tigers to their fourth win of the season, keeping hopes of a second consecutive finals appearance alive with a 6.5 (41) to 4.6 (30) win.

In the first AFLW game ever in Cairns, the Tigers only best-and-fairest winner in their four-season history, Monique Conti, was enormous with 35 touches, nine marks, seven clearances and seven tackles.

The 23-year-old now leads the competition for clearances, following the top-notch win where she also became the first Tiger to pick up 1000 disposals.

Meanwhile, the loss for the Hawks in humid conditions in Queensland ends their chances of making finals in 2023.

Milestone pair shine early

Both AFLW 50-gamers got off to flying starts in Cairns registering goals in the opening quarter of the Indigenous Round encounter.

Tigers midfielder-forward Katie Brennan was the first to fire with back-to-back majors in the opening quarter after the Hawks scored the first of the game.

Following a classy snap-goal, the 31-year-old kicked a 40m long bomb on a difficult angle to put the Tigers seven points in front.

Then Hawks forward Greta Bodey took a strong mark inside 50 before making a tough set-shot to cut the margin to a point before quarter-time.

The pair both share a relation to Queensland with Brennan having grown up in the state where she also represented Brisbane in AFLW and Bodey who played her first game of footy for Cairns Saints.

Hawks miss chance

The Hawks would have been disappointed with a one-point lead at halftime after dominating the second quarter.

The first 10 minutes of the second term saw the Hawks gain the first seven inside 50s and almost 100 per cent of the ball in their front half, but they just managed two behinds.

Irish-born Hawks footballer Ellen Gilroy was even kicking the ball to herself Gaelic football style.

Then the Tigers found a way back in the contest with the next three inside 50s as tensions flared after Laura McClelland received a free kick for a push in the back.

The forward was ultimately sent to the goal line after a 50m penalty eventuated from the push and shove when Sarah Hosking was bumped to the ground.

The Hawks got some reward with a goal late, via a Hipwell long kick to open the field, giving Tahlia Fellows a simple run in goal and Hawthorn the advantage at the main break.

Mon is the best player in the comp. Has been for quote some time. A once in a generation player

She won't be going anywhere. Good news with the latest CBA is player's can now sign long term deals

Have said a few times over the years it is a much better product live than on TV

Glad you enjoyed it

ICYMI, R8: In Case You Missed It

By Gemma Bastiani

The Tigers are rarely out of it

Heading into the final quarter, Richmond just needs to be within touching distance of the lead to be a threat. Down by nine points at three-quarter time against Hawthorn on Friday, the Tigers piled on 21 points to just one behind in order to record their fourth win of the season. In round four against the Blues, Richmond came from behind at the last break to win, and in round one they were all square with Brisbane at that same break before a last gasp win. This season the Tigers have won six of their eight final quarters, showing that teams need to create more scoreboard distance early in the game if they're to feel secure late in games.
