Inside 50s this qtr: 6 - 15

But we've kicked 3 goals to their none.

Why is that a free to Williams when he had a fist full of Dusty's jumper?

Umps trying to get the Pies back in the game.

Seriously. Was there something off the ball to warrant the 50? For the life of me I couldn't see what happened other than Williams with Dusty's jumper and Dusty had his hand in return.

[mightytiges]

Flossy finds Jack who plays on hurrily (it was a clean grab but not paid).

Lloyd snaps but misses.

65 - 26

50 paid because we kicked the goal instead of pulling up.

[mightytiges]

LOL they miss again. 7 straight behinds to them.

[mightytiges]

From the kick-in, Ellis goes long to Jack. Goes long but Lloyd is spoiled. Throw-in inside F50. Now a ball-up. Houli hands to Ellis but his snap misses on the siren.

Half-time

Richmond   7.3    10.6-66
Coll'wood   3.3     3.10-28

Goals: Lloyd 3, Vickery 2, Deledio 2, Riewoldt, Lambert, Grigg.

[mightytiges]

Take the 38 point lead but we're just sitting back waiting to hit the Pies on the counter. You can't give a good side that many more inside 50s even with our backline playing so well. Prefer when we starve opposition forward lines.

I agree. Playing the corridor on the rebound has worked this arvo, but as Collingwood work to counter it I wouldn't mind seeing us flick the switch and play a bit more defensively and conservative which worked for so much this season and throw the Pies. I'm getting frightened of them starting to capitalise off their entries lol.

[mightytiges]

Cotch short outside D50 to Batch. Finds Lids in the middle. Llong to Lloyd but it's spoiled. Errant Pie handball is picked off by Miles to Jack who goes to TV = Goal. 

4 goals to TV.

Rich  78
Coll   35

[mightytiges]

Jack off to Newy but his snap is marked by Lambert over the line. Point.

79 - 35

[mightytiges]

We get it back. Jack almost marks but it's rushed through.

80 - 35
