Naish on the run from 45 and he sprays it too.

3 - 1



The game is also on the radio via the live on the app on SEN 2.

Good smother by Butler but his dribbling kick from the pocket is another point.

4 - 2

Naish across HB to Beasley to Chol on the wing who finds Moore 60 out. Goes long. Butler could have let it through but can't mark. Loose ball is rushed.

6 - 2

All points.

And that is Quarter time.

Richmond   0.6-6
Port Melb.   0.2-2

Disposals:
Beasley 5
Turner 5

Free flowing game believe it or not. Goalkicking ordinary. We just didn't find marking targets into 50 so shots were from long or fell short and rushed off hands. Chol is running around on a wing which means Moore leads up as a high forward leaving Butler to be the deep target.

Naish has really improved from last year. Turner doing well too.

50 - 47 kicks
30 - 22 marks
11 - 10 inside 50s
11 - 10 rebound 50s.

[one-eyed]

Finally get a mark inside 50. Naish to Soldo 45 out. But big Ivan can't make the distance and it's no score.

We're peppering the F50 but can't find a mark. Butler snaps another point.

We finally get a set shot with Moore getting a free kick. Hooray we kick one straight! 

Rich  1.7-13
Port   0.2-2

[one-eyed]

Markov off HB to Thompson to English but his shot on the run from 40 misses.

14 - 2

6 mins Q2

Very heated game now.

[one-eyed]

Good forward pressure. Butler taps it back to Fletcher for the goal  .

Rich  2.8-20
Port  0.2-2

[one-eyed]

You can't bring it back ump after they take the advantage and the disposal is poor .

Point to Port.

20 - 3

11 mins Q2

[one-eyed]

Good play by Butler. Bursts off HB. Does the 1-2 and then the clever kick off the side of the boot to Aarts 40 out. Goal! 

Rich  3.8-26
Port   0.4-4
