Bachelor playing on, and bein defeated by resting ruckman again

And we can't even blame the coach.

[mightytiges]

Nice goal ump. BS free.

2 - 36

Freo out of the centre and Pav too strong for Broad.

And struggling with the pace of the game. Ditto Marcon

Shows there's a big difference between AFL and state league footy.

[Go Richo 12]

Gee Conca looks fat and unfit. (Our best tonight so far)

[Petey]

can someone ban chuck17 he is a stuffing troll of the highest order

Shows there's a big difference between AFL and state league footy.

Yep

 Couple of the more senior blokes look totally disinterested which doesnt help 

Menandue gets our first. Looks to bulked up a bit, needs mpre beef but improved in soze

[Go Richo 12]

First goal was a nice move! Well done tiges!

[mightytiges]

Players with more than 5 possies:  Freo 13 to Rich 5.



Hooray, we finally got one. Won the stoppage and it gets to Menadue who runs in and goals.

Rich  8
Freo 43

[tony_montana]

Chaplin plucking a few down forward, pity he can't kick

[mightytiges]

Out of the middle and Chaplin marks 49m out. His kick goes towards the point post and it's a throw-in.

Ellis banana from 40 doesn't make the distance and it's cleared by Freo.

Griffs in the ruck gets the free 55m out. Misses.

9 - 43

15 mins Q2

[WilliamPowell]

We certainly are experimenting with different positions for certain players

[mightytiges]

4 disposals in our defence. Scrappy kick by Marcon but Batch makes good and Lennon to Lloyd hands to Chaplin goes laterally to Menadue. Gets it back to Lloyd hands to Brandon off to Chaplin whose kick towards goal misses.

10 - 43

[mightytiges]

Since the 10 minute mark of the quarter, Richmond has controlled the football, leading the disposals 40 to 10 over the time period. Despite this, the Tigers have managed just 1.2.8 to 0.0.0 from this dominance.
