Ordinary first half. No defensive pressure and barely a tackle. Game should have been over on the scoreboard but we coughed up those late two goals to keep the Suns in it. Reminders of last week. Apparently, Dimma wasn't happy with the lack of tackling. Second half, we put the foot down and were more efficient going inside F50. The best thing was we buried them in the last. You'd take a 83 point win at the start of the match.

I tackle in first quarter. Second quarter was atrocious. Hardwick must have roasted them at half time. 2nd half much better. Happy with result but could have won by over 100 POINTS if second quarter had been better.

For the record that was the Gold Coast's second biggest loss in 2015 - West Coast got them by 92 earlier in the season.

Rance (again) and Dusty have been named in this week's AFL website's Team of the Week:

ALEX RANCE (Richmond) - Had the better of Gold Coast's Charlie Dixon, keeping him to six possessions, two marks and one goal. Rance himself had 24 possessions, nine marks and four rebound 50s.

DUSTIN MARTIN (Richmond) - Best on ground in the Tigers' big win over Gold Coast, racking up 29 possessions, six clearances and three goals. Could be squeezed to half-forward but deserves recognition as one of the round's best midfielders.
