Vickery fumbles but is still able to get it to Bachar who goes to Butler. It eventually gets to Callum Moore who finds Townsend in range. But he lays back on the kick and it doesn't make the distance.

We get it back and Ivan gets another chance. He makes this one. Goal!

Throw-in F50. Ivan takes it and has a ping across his body. Goal!

Free to Soldo in the ruck 45m out. Too close to the man of the mark and it falls short.

We're going in F50 plenty of times but we're not scoring.

l'm surprised of the number of softie footballers we have who struggle the most basic skill of the game.

Kicking the ball long

@RichmondVFL: IVAN! A double for Maric with his ovely right-foot snap cutting the margin to 18pts. BOX 54 to RICH 36 #gotiges #PJVFL
“I find it nearly impossible to make those judgments, but he is certainly up there with the really important ones, he is certainly up there with the Francis Bourkes and the Royce Harts and the Kevin Bartlett and the Kevin Sheedys, there is no doubt about that,” Balme said.

Houli to Ballard who hits up Vickery.

Commentators saying Houli is a class above everyone else on the ground.


Ty goals  :gotigers.

Back to a point.

Both sides making mistakes. Bad turnover by Box Hill.

Ballard goes inside 50 and Andrew Moore in the clear puts us in front.

In Front!!!!

Ivan to Bachar. Ty marks and finds Callum Moore with a set shot. Misses a gettable one that would've have sealed it.
