VFL R5: Richmond vs GWS ressies @ Punt Rd, Sat. May 15

[mightytiges]

Amazing what happens when you kick the ball and go direct.

Eggy off HB to Ryan on the wing to Hicks at HF. Goes long and Caddy crumbs a goal  .

Rich   6.2-38
GWS  1.4-10

12 min Q2

[mightytiges]

Sadly Caddy will struggle to play AFL again. Too slow now and going to ground too easily.

Point to MRJ.

39 - 10

[mightytiges]

Stack lovely weighted kick to Dow at HF who goes towards Olden who is chopped. Free 25 out and goals  .

Rich   7.3-45
GWS   1.4-10

[mightytiges]

Dow wins the free in the middle. Martyn and Dow 1-2 and Martyn goes to the square where Chol marks. Goal! 

Rich   8.3-51
GWS  1.4-10

22 min Q2

[mightytiges]

Out of the centre again. Bartlett chips to Chol on the lead 40 out. Misses.

52 - 10

[mightytiges]

Two late goals to the Giants including one just before the siren keeps them in it .

Half-time

Richmond    5.2     8.4-52
GWS           0.0     3.6-24

Goals: Coleman-Jones 2, Ryan, Caddy, Chol, Olden, Bartlett, McDonagh.

[Knighter]

That’s why Caddy is not playing seniors. Pee weak effort at the stoppage and his man snaps a goal with 1 second left

[Diocletian]

So why didn't we take Josh Green again?

[mightytiges]

Dow was our clear best that quarter. Had a heap of it and was clean and showed poise.

Eggy must have 20 possies or thereabouts.

Chol (frustrating he doesn't present and attack the ball like this all the time) and Stack good too that qtr.
