We were our own worst enemy today as far as ball-use, but the umps sure switched to wearing blue and white stripes after HT when it came to free kicks ::).

First half:      7 - 4

Second half:  4 - 13

Umps flat out cheated in the 2nd half. CFL sprung into action at halftime

You say like it’s a negative
"The money might have been better. But, at the end of the day, Richmond showed faith in me. It's only fair that now we're 18th on the ladder, I show the faith back in the club and do everything I can to put them in front. In the end, I'm stoked I made the decision to stay. I f***ing love this club”

The McIntosh non-free was a work of art...almost matched by the non-htb call down the other end and the exaggerated Wayne Harmes impression on the wing that ended up in a Norf goal...... :shh

9 frees in a game itself is bewildering pathetic.

At the other end, it is Richmond on a massive -85. The Tigers have received the fewest free kicks in 2024 while giving away the equal third most.

I'm sure the Dawks having a 50 point insurance at quarter time had absolutely nothing to do with it...either that or they've suddenly realised we're going to get pick one..... :shh

The Free Kick ladder for 2024

Down the other end and it was Richmond who made it a pair of wooden spoons for 2024.

The poor old Tigers received the least frees for (343) and gave way the sixth most (427) to finish with a -85 differential.
