Richmond vs Gold Coast @ Metricon - Round 17, 2022

[mightytiges]

Graham quick kick inside 50 and George on the move takes a good mark 35 out. Sprays it and it falls short. No score  .

We get it back. Rioli gives on the wing and is held off the ball = 50m. Shot from 45 falls short but Jack crumbs the goal 

Rich  9.6-60
GC    4.4-28

Loving the game, loving the kids and loving the sunset.

[mightytiges]

You can't have guys like George and Aarts who can't make the distance from 35 out  .

[Broadsword]

Loving the game, loving the kids and loving the sunset.

Same here.

[Broadsword]

You can't have guys like George and Aarts who can't make the distance from 35 out  .

Bring back Brad Miller.

[mightytiges]

Exhibit B: Aarts again shot goes wide and doesn't make the distance  . It keeps the opposition in it when you don't take your chances.

Lucky Cumberland marked on the boundary. Misses.

61 - 28

[mightytiges]

Baker again with the break open handpass. Hugo through the middle kicks long and it's paid front on contact to Cumberland. Misses as well.

62 - 28

Half-time

Richmond    5.3     9.8-62
Gold Coast   3.3    4.4-28

Goals: Bolton 3, Cumberland 2, Edwards, Pickett, Riewoldt, Short.


Dominated the quarter. Turned it into a front-half game which is our way. Actually should be further than 34 pts in front.

[Broadsword]

MRJ needs to lift. Chasing hard and a nice handball to set up Cumberland for his first but otherwise unsighted.

[mat073]

We've left 3-4 goals on the table .

Should be 50 up

Hows Ben Miller going?

Hows Ben Miller going?

2 disposals and a mark (mind you a courageous one). Keeping his man quiet so doing his job.

We've left 3-4 goals on the table .

Should be 50 up

Thanks to George's 2 behinds and one no score and Aarts two no scores  .

[mightytiges]

Graham straight through two Suns and drills it from 50 

Rich  10.8-68
GC     4.4-28
