Richmond is better at chasing than being chased

Many Tigers fans arrived at the MCG on Saturday expecting their finals-aspiring team to overcome a depleted Geelong line-up, but if there's anything we've learned about Richmond over the last couple of seasons, it's that they far prefer doing the chasing than being hunted themselves. It was clear last year when they won nine games in a row to sneak into the finals when all hope looked lost. And it was obvious again on Saturday, when they fell to a 31-point lead 10 minutes into the final quarter. At that point they began to play some attacking, bold footy in an attempt to snatch a win, and they did get within nine points by the final siren.

No Richmond is better when there is nothing to lose.

When there is heat, we melt like wax.

When it is token and meaningless and ultimately futile we flourish and we even glorify it.
