Richmond vs Port Adelaide @ Adelaide Oval --- Round 24, 2023

[WilliamPowell]

That Dylan keeps getting sucked into these off the ball scuffles tells you where he's at IMHO

[WilliamPowell]

Dangerous tackle

You are kidding me

[Andyy]

Umps have made a sure thing of this.

Last 3 goals from free gagf

[pmac21]

Umps have made sure of the result in the last.

[WilliamPowell]

Final scoreline doesn't give a true indication of how well we've played today

Cubs did well, not all doom and gloom

Umps have screwed us in the last 10 minutes

[one-eyed]

Doesn't matter but some of these late frees to Port are laughable.

[pmac21]

A gallant performance. 
Ultimately just not enough skill or desire to get the result.
Interesting off season coming up.

Final Score

Richmond    3.4     5.11     7.13       8.15-63
Port Adel.    4.3      6.7      8.13     13.16-94

Goals: Bolton 2, Martin, Bauer, Graham, Soldo, D.Rioli, Banks.


Competitive. It would've been very easy to just not turn up and let Port cruise to a 10+ goal win.

[The Machine]

We need fast feet in the middle as Hopper, Taranto, Prestia are all the same paced. The young boys played well as did Dusty

[WilliamPowell]

Far more positives than negatives today

If people look hard enough

[Knighter]

[Tiger_In_Sicily]

Far more positives than negatives today

If people look hard enough

Totally agree..

Isn’t that why we have Bolton?
