VFL Tigers make it two from two
richmondfc.com.au
22 April 2017
The VFL Tigers remain undefeated in the VFL 2017 season after defeating Sandringham by 25 points at Trevor Barker Oval on Saturday.
Inspired by a three-goal Mabior Chol performance and debutant Shai Bolton (two goals), Craig McRae’s side lead at every break before breaking away from the Zebras in a frenetic final term.
McRae said he was impressed by his team’s fight and endeavour when challenged by the home side.
“It was a real fight, which is something we want to do - it’s a part of our culture,” he said.
“I’m really proud of the efforts of the guys. It was a really good win.”
In a well balanced first quarter, the VFL Tigers were almost made to rue missed opportunities after booting five behinds in a row, while Sandringham’s Rowan Marshall made no mistake with the Zebras' first effort of the day.
With the Tigers in desperate need of some class in front of the sticks, Chol stepped up with the first of many towering marks for the day, before calmly slotting his first major, much to the delight of his teammates.
Shortly after, Bolton showed his incredible skill and agility to register his first goal in Tiger colours.
With two Zebra defenders in close pursuit, Bolton dribbled home from a difficult angle, and was mobbed by his teammates from all corners of the ground before coming to the bench.
In a goal-for-goal contest, Sandringham managed to reduce the deficit to three points by the first break, and the following term did not let up in intensity.
In unfortunate circumstances, Nathan Drummond was forced to leave the ground in the arms of trainers after injuring his left knee. Scans will now be required to determine the extent of the injury.
With the Zebras fighting tooth-and-nail on their home turf, it was Chol who again stood up with a big time goal, winning a free kick in the goal square and making no mistake from the resulting kick.
Tyson Stengle was dynamic around the ground, following up on his 11-disposal first quarter with his trademark forward pressure on show for all to see.
Corey Ellis was also a standout performer, gathering 16 disposals for the half, while Taylor Hunt’s dash off half-back was the perfect springboard for each Tiger attack.
With the margin only eight points at the main break, Jacob Ballard made his mark on the contest, marking strongly before kicking truly to give his side some much needed breathing space.
Following suit was Jake Aarts, who snapped brilliantly over his shoulder to open up the game’s biggest lead and put the VFL Tigers in control of the contest.
While Sandringham answered back with two quick-fire goals, a double to Tyson Stengle and Chol’s third major helped stabilise an 18-point lead at the final break.
With the Zebras pushing for a fourth-quarter revival, club captain Sam Darley led by example, taking a handful of vital intercept marks and collecting seven disposals of his own to hold the home side at bay.
Fellow club leader Hugh Beasley also showed his experience and guile with an industrious shift at the back, while Ryan Garthwaite continued to stifle every Zebras' counter-attack with his vicious and relentless attack on the ball.
Ben Lennon inspired one of the loudest Tiger cheers all day with his courageous mark and clinical finish, while Corey Ellis nailed his only goal of the day after receiving a 50-metre penalty.
With an 18-point lead intact in the dying minutes, the VFL Tigers locked down defensively on the dangerous Paddy McCartin, before Bolton put the nail in the coffin with his second goal in a memorable win.
The VFL Tigers, now with two wins from two games, look to next week’s clash with Port Melbourne, which starts at 2pm on Saturday at North Port Oval.
The match will also be broadcast on Channel Seven.

Richmond's improving depth was on display during its 25-point win over Sandringham in the VFL at Trevor Barker Beach Oval on Saturday.
Taylor Hunt (29 possessions) and Corey Ellis (28) and ex-Giant Jacob Townsend (22) held sway in the midfield.
First-year draftee Ryan Garthwaite was named the Tigers' best player after a strong showing in defence, with strong support from Jake Batchelor.
Rookie big man Mabior Chol kicked a team-high three goals, while rookie small forward Tyson Stengle and fellow 18-year-old Shai Bolton kicked two apiece.
Ben Lennon kicked a goal after an especially courageous mark.

First-year draftee Ryan Garthwaite was named the Tigers' best player after a strong showing in defence, with strong support from Jake Batchelor.
This is what a lot of us Batch fans see that some clearly don't. Jakey could easily have walked away with BOG honours but he always strives to make those around him better and Garthwaite was the beneficiary of that.
-
My mate who went reckons he was BOG
Wouldnt bother Batch though - hes as selfless as they come.

He would have fumbled that ball to the ground and landed heavily and that would have been it for the day

The VFL Report: Round 2
Richmond Development and VFL backline coach, Ryan Ferguson's summary of the AFL and VFL-listed players from Saturday’s win over Sandringham.
AFL LISTED PLAYERS
Taylor Hunt
29 disposals, 18 kicks, 5 marks, 2 tackles
Gave a lot of drive, won a lot of ball on the wing and was important to our structure and leadership. An important player for us on the day.
Corey Ellis
28 disposals, 15 contested possessions, 3 marks, 1 goal
Spent a half down back and started really strongly. Found a lot of the ball, and was clean and composed when the game was a bit chaotic. He was really good with his ball use, and continued his form when he rotated into the midfield, which was great to see.
Jacob Townsend
22 disposals, 17 contested possessions, 7 clearances, 5 tackles
He’s playing outstanding footy. Finding plenty of the ball, lots of clearances, lots of tackles, and his defensive pressure is elite.
Steven Morris
20 disposals, 3 marks, 7 contested possessions, 1 tackle
Provided a lot of experience down back, and was a cool head under pressure. Made some good decisions in a pretty chaotic game.
Tyson Stengle
20 disposals, 11 contested possessions, 3 marks, 2 goals
Lively as always. Racked plenty of disposals up early and was able to find some space and kick a couple of goals. He was a potent threat in the forward line with Shai.
Jake Batchelor
18 disposals, 5 marks, 5 tackles, 7 contested possessions
Another general in our backline. Structured our play, set up our defence and was able to repel plenty of ball.
Ryan Garthwaite
18 disposals, 5 marks, 5 tackles, 4 spoils
Played a breakout game. Had a huge impact with his intercept marks, and his desperation, contest work and fight was outstanding.
Callum Moore
18 disposals, 9 contested possessions, 5 marks, 4 spoils
Cal was used at both ends, so it’s good to know we have that up our sleeve. He started strongly in the forward line, took some contested marks, and when we had a few injuries and needed to plug a hole in the backline, he went on to one of Sandringham’s key forwards and did a tremendous job.
Ben Lennon
11 disposals, 4 marks, 6 inside 50s, 1 goal
Didn’t dominate like he has in previous weeks, but when the game was on the line, took one of the best marks you’ll see going back with the flight. His goal steadied the ship and put some daylight between Sandringham and us in the last quarter when we needed it.
Shai Bolton
10 disposals, 6 contested possessions, 1 mark, 2 goals
Not a huge disposal count, but was very lively. Put on lots of pressure, was hard to contain with our other small forwards. He was a great asset to us in his first game for the club.
Ivan Maric (9 disposals, 23 hitouts, 2 tackles, 1 mark) and Ivan Soldo (8 disposals, 18 hitouts, 4 marks, 1 clearance)
Our two ruckmen worked in tandem and provided a really good contest in the ruck. Their use around the ground and their marking ability helped steady the ship.
Mabior Chol
6 disposals, 4 marks, 4 tackles, 3 goals
He didn’t have many possessions, but still had an impact on the game. He kicked goals, created more with his tackling and forward pressure, and created a contest whenever the ball went near him.
Ben Griffiths (3 disposals, 1 mark, 3 tackles) and
Nathan Drummond (2 disposals, 1 mark)
Both were taken off early with injuries. We wish them the best of luck with their recovery.
VFL LISTED PLAYERS
Sam Darley
26 disposals, 19 kicks, 5 marks, 2 clearances
Our skipper was a general down back. He provided plenty of run and rebound, and used the ball with efficiency.
Brandon Wood
23 disposals, 6 tackles, 7 clearances, 1 goal
Snuck down for a goal, and is always hard to defend. He’s a bull in there, and provided plenty of tackles.
Jake Aarts
22 disposals, 2 clearances, 4 tackles, 1 goal
Plays exactly the way that we want him to play. He’s a hard ball winner, performs team acts, still found plenty of the footy and impacted offensively. He’s in really good form at the moment.
Jacob Ballard
19 disposals, 12 contested possessions, 2 clearances, 1 goal
One of those bulls that we can rely on to win the hard ball. When he goes forward, he’s really hard to match up on, and took a few good marks, which he’s been doing week in, week out.
Daniel Coffield
16 disposals, 8 marks, 2 clearances, 5 inside-50s
Probably the best game we’ve seen him play. He excelled with his intercept marks, had plenty of disposals, used the ball well, and positioned himself really well all day.
Thomas Silvestro
14 disposals, 8 contested possessions, 4 tackles, 2 clearances
Displayed lots of hard running, and put his body on the line. Our half backs love him as he works back hard to support them, and was doing the team things that make him so valuable for us.
Jack Holden
11 disposals, 2 marks, 2 tackles, 1 clearance
It was good to see Jack get amongst it. Considering it was a fairly hectic game at times, it will be great for his experience to be a part of a game that was so intense.
Hugh Beasley
7 disposals, 2 marks, 1 tackle, 1 inside-50
Did an important job on Paddy McCartin. He was really physical, didn’t allow him to do what he wanted, and was able to spoil, repel some balls and take intercept marks.
