Is it third Q or 4th OE?

Dougey, it's 27 mins in the 3rd.

[one-eyed]

Fumble by Bolton at HB. Make that 5 straight to Casey  .

105 - 74


Inside 50s in 3rd: 9 - 16

[one-eyed]

Markov marks the Demon clearance. Goes long and Chol takes a pack mark. Sprays it from 20 out  .

106 - 74

[one-eyed]

Casey go coast to coast. Poor defence on transition. Dees forward line wide open and they goal on the siren  .

3/4 time

Richmond    4.0    12.5    16.10-106
Casey         3.8      5.8     12.8-80

Goals: Stengle 4, Lennon 2, Lloyd 2, Griffiths 2, Menadue 2, Bolton 2, Short, Morris.


Pathetic last 10 mins. We thought the game was won and done up by 10 goals and switched off and Casey got on a role we couldn't stop and kicked last 6 goals to give themselves a sniff  .

Did the same thing last week. Playing like millionaire's.  Game is in the balance I reckon.  If they get the first one I sense trouble.

McRae got into our players for "contest balance". Running forward of the contest too much rather that winning the ball..

[pmac21]

First one to them to easy through the corridor.  Big test for a few of our youngsters here

[one-eyed]

Bolt flies at HF but Casey at ground level rebound and once again we have too players forward of the ball and get hurt on the counter with an open Casey forward line  .

Back 21 pts.

107 - 86

[one-eyed]

Morris great run down earns the free on the wing. Goes long and Moore marks 52m out. Misses.

108 - 87

8 mins Q4

[one-eyed]

Boy did we need that.

We burst out of defence via Stengle. Manner the 23rd man kicks a badly needed goal 

Rich  114
Casey  88
