A finals brand

The Tigers have secured a top-four finish and they'll go into a qualifying final against Geelong playing a brand of football that brings success in September. The first half was the Tigers at their best. They hit the Saints with an irresistible wave of pressure from the opening bounce, forcing turnovers and running in waves on the counter-attack. At half-time they led the tackle count 44-29, using that pressure as a catalyst for a 44-point lead. Perhaps the biggest complement you can pay Richmond is that they enter finals with an easily identifiable brand. That was not the case when they finished in the top eight from 2013-15.
