"He lowered" = ducked = HTB

[Buddysucks]

If he ducked and it was okay on then why didn’t we get the free. Sat there expecting the free for ages, isn’t that prior opportunity / sufficient time?

They we're dieing to give the Swans the win and Buddy farewell.

[lamington]

Love the goal from dusty. He has been immense and really gave us scoring opportunities every time he was involved in a possession chain. It was great reward from some blue collar football from the champion

[Tiger Khosh]

That was awesomeeeeeeee!!!!

Mini the close game specialist.

Final Score

Richmond   2.1    5.6    8.12    12.16-88
Sydney      4.3    8.6    10.8     11.9-75

Goals: Graham 2, Ross 2, Riewoldt, Martin, Miller, Cotchin, Pickett, Baker, Nankervis, Vlastuin.


We were the better side after quarter time and the clearance dominance and 8 more scoring shots show that. Made it harder for ourselves with our set shot goalkicking but we kicked them when they mattered in the end and ran out the game stronger.

Lucky to win. We played so poorly. Swans are a bottom 4-5 team this year. Nanks bump was so dumb. No leadership at all displayed there and it’s not tough. Play the ball. His last quarter was huge though.

[Fluffy Tiger]

stuff YOU UMPIRES! RICHMOND WIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 

They tried hard to gift a Swans the win but we were the better team. So many stood up in the second half.

[PoppyTige]

Wow, this feels good after that pooey start. Go Tiges!
