Round 20 Richmond vs Hawthorn MCG

[mightytiges]

Pressure, winning the contested footy, quick movement of the footy using our speed and taking our chances are the keys for us today.

 

So no rain but it'll still be wet from earlier rain ?

The grounds have good drainage these days. Bright sunshine now. The surface would've dried out a fair bit by now.

[mightytiges]

Damn! Good quick transition. Nank should have snapped that.

1 - 0.

[mightytiges]

That's holding the ball. Whitecross had a heap of time.

8 - 1

[mightytiges]

What kind of handpass was that, Houli?  Then gives away the free to give the Hawks their first.

8 - 7

[mightytiges]

That should have been a free to Caddy. He was the only one going for it and the Hawk defender just pushes him  .

Pathetic by Houli

We get it back and Corey Ellis has a set shot from 30 out. Starts right and swings back. Goal  .

Rich  2.2-14
Haw   1.1-7

Houli kick straight to Sicily

[mightytiges]

Nice Shedder (no longer Titch  ). Lowers his eyes to Rioli 25m out. Goal  .

Rich  3.2-20
Haw  1.1-7

[mightytiges]

Houli kick straight to Sicily

Should have given it off but tried to dodge the oncoming Hawk and stuffed it up with the hurried kick.

[mightytiges]

Geez Astbury is in form. Great inboard pass. Butler chips to Cotch 35m out. But he misses  .

21 - 7

[🏅Dooks]

Houli kick straight to Sicily

Should have given it off but tried to dodge the oncoming Hawk and stuffed it up with the hurried kick.

He looks panicked early on. Its a worry.

Astbury

Today's umpire interpretation:

You're allowed to just push a player up in the air going for the mark.
