AFLW R7: Richmond vs West Coast @ Lathlain Park - Perth, Fri. Oct. 7

[one-eyed]

Wakefield marks in the pocket. Banana too narrow and kicks it OOTF! 

[one-eyed]

Long kick towards Wakefield. Reid crumbs and goals from 30 out  .

Rich  3.3-21
WC   1.3-9

[one-eyed]

Eagle defender overkicks. Reid to Sheerin who nails the goal on the run  .

Rich  4.3-27
WC   1.3-9

[one-eyed]

Cox bursts through in the centre. Conti can't find a forward and it goes through for a point.

We get it back from the kick-in by Woods misses too.

29 - 10

Half-time

Richmond    2.2     4.5-29
West Coast  1.2     1.4-10

Goals:  Conti, Kiely, Reid, Sheerin.


Last 5-10 mins all over them. Good forward pressure across HF. Kept the ball in our forward half and allowed for repeat entries.

Sheerin is a gun btw.

[Tiger Khosh]

Getting a good rub by the umps imo. Umps are paying too many frees in general.

Yep. Very hot on HTB. We've gained from a couple of dodgy ones. Makes up for previous games  .

Mind you the game is flowing well. Not many scrummages and piles on slowing the ball movement.

Hello the men's in the Elim Final . Just had to rush it through on the line and we do everything but to gift the Eagles a goal  .

29 - 16

[one-eyed]

Our forward entries and play have been terrible this qtr.

Poor kick out of defence by the Eagles. Conti grabs it 35 out but is tackled as she kicks and it goes OOTF.

29 - 16

[Tiger Khosh]

Need to have someone man their goal keeper on the line. Basically had the ball in our forward 50 for a good 5 minutes there and most plays were cut off by an uncontested intercept mark around the goal square.

3/4 time

Richmond    2.2     4.5      4.5-29
West Coast  1.2     1.4      2.4-16

Goals:  Conti, Kiely, Reid, Sheerin.


One word - wasteful! Had the ball inside 50 enough that quarter but chose the wrong option every time. Too many blind kicks to the Eagles spare. When we did get our hands on it inside 50 we tried too much and stuffed up chances.

Yassir banana to the hot spot. We tackle the Eagle defender over for a rushed behind.

30 - 16

[one-eyed]

What the hell was that?  We spread while defending and allowed the Eagles to waltz up the ground for a goal  .

All 3 Eagle goals have been from our total brainfades 


30 - 22
