Richmond vs St Kilda @ Marvel --- Round 5, 2021

[mightytiges]

Soft goal to the Saints. 3 Tigers against King at HB and we give away the free .

20 - 14

[mightytiges]

Can we actually win a centre clearance Tiges? 

Got to love how the chopping of the arms is only at one end of the ground.

20 - 20


Ball has spent more time in our forward half so far but scores are level  .

[mightytiges]

Some soft 50/50 contest efforts out there. Lucky King misses.

20 - 21

[mightytiges]

No frees for our forwards  .

Aarts snap under pressure misses.

21 all.

Jack Graham......... Lift your game.

[Buddysucks]

These blokes just drop the footy cold in tackles and it’s okay on.
Our forward line is terrible. Too many 1 handed errors across the ground. Very sloppy disposals.

[JP Tiger]

Saints leading 45 frees to 3 .... here we go again ....     

[mightytiges]

Quarter time

Richmond   3.3-21
St Kilda      3.4-22

Goals: Lynch, Rioli, Graham.


Had all the play for the first 15 mins but didn't put it on the scoreboard. Our forward entries are again terrible and just high bombs in hope to Jack and Lynch. Saints are flooding back and then getting us with the sucker punch on the counter. We're also not making the most of Nank in the ruck against their inexperienced ruckman. St Kilda started to get on top in the contested footy late in the quarter. We're just not jelling. Silly schoolboy errors and mixed efforts.

As for the umps  .

[sdc01]

dont want to sound predictable...but these umpires are simply unbelievably crap...crap frees to King and Lonie...no dropping the ball given at CHF 2 minutes earlier...GTF outta here

[wayne]

Our guys get called out if we play for a free, every other stuffing team does it and no-one mentions anything

[mightytiges]

Nank stop tapping it to Saint mids.

Better pass by Graham to Jack on the lead. Goal! 

Rich  4.3-27
StK   3.4-22

[mightytiges]

Dusty around the neck = no free  .

[mightytiges]

Hit your targets Tiges  .

[mightytiges]

They are scoring off our mistakes.

27 - 23

[mightytiges]

Saints player throws it and they get the free  .
