------------------------------------------------

RICHMOND has dashed Collingwood's finals chances with its best win of the year, sending the Pies crashing out of contention to the tune of 52 points.

Both sides – who have been hit by injuries to key players this season – will miss finals after qualifying last year, sitting one game out of the top eight following the Tigers' thumping 11.11 (77) to 4.1 (25) victory at Victoria Park.

It marked Richmond's highest ever AFLW score, topping the 68 against West Coast last season.

After St Kilda's win over Carlton, Collingwood came into the game knowing it had to win by at least three goals – more to create a buffer over Sydney – in order to put itself back into the finals race.

Halfway through the match, it had only raised its percentage by 1.5 of the required 7.3, and the Pies went on to score just one point in the second half.

The Magpies didn't have it all their own way early, the teams level in inside 50s at quarter-time, but the home side were able to capitalise deep inside their own attack with two goals.

Two quick set shot conversions from Richmond skipper Katie Brennan not only hauled her side back into the game, but gave them the lead halfway through the second, with the Pies struggling to effectively clear their defensive half.

But a series of Tiger behinds was quickly followed by a Nell Morris-Dalton brace, immediately wiping out the brief lead.

The cumulative absence of Collingwood defenders Ruby Schleicher (PCL), Lauren Butler (hamstring) and Selena Karlson (shoulder) really hit home as Richmond peppered its attacking half in the third term, with Jordy Allan forced to play a tight defensive role rather than provide her usual rebound.

The Tigers owned the footy throughout the game, winning the midfield battle and denying the Pies first use of the ball.

Mon Conti, Grace Egan and Eilish Sheerin combined beautifully in the midfield, while Brennan and the returning Sarah D'Arcy were a handful in attack where the Tigers recorded 22 scoring shots to five.

Brit Bonnici (who seemed to reach for her back throughout the game), Mikala Cann and Aish Sheridan battled hard, but just didn’t win nearly enough of the ball to have a meaningful impact.

Magpies have room for improvement

The Pies will be looking to improve on two key areas ahead of next season – taking marks inside its own forward 50 (creating easier scoring opportunities for its forwards), and limiting opposition marks in attack. The marks inside 50 count sat at 1-10 at half-time, with only Richmond's inaccuracy keeping it interesting in the first half. It finished at 2-14, as the Tigers began to run the footy inside 50 in the second half.

Richmond's new midfield mix set for 2024

After including debutant key back Amelia Peck and with Sarah Hosking shifted forward, the Tigers decided to throw Sheerin onto the ball, with immediate effect. Sheerin – who played as an inside midfielder for AFL Sydney club Inner West Magpies – was just the bullocking presence needed for Conti to shine, recording 11 clearances off her own boot.

Up next

It's season over for both sides.

Yep, where has it been?

Great team effort but a couple of the whipping gal's deserve special mentions

Poppy King - hands down best game she's played for the club. She's a ruck not a forward. Super impressed with her game today 👏

Caitlin Greiser - there's been alot of comments about her size. Having met her during the week have say most of it unfair . She is actually very slim though you wouldn't know watching her on the TV or even ar games but anyways... she got the rewards today for her 2nd and 3rd efforts which go unnoticed...well done

Debutant Amelia Peck - impressive.  Just did her job down back, didn't panic made good decisions. Congrats

Absolute waste of a season and a waste of KBs last years

Game plan next year since our recruiting is so pootzen is give the ball to Conti at all times who will kick to Brennan at all times

[Damo]

So now we are on to the real stuff

Cricket World Cup latter stages 
Business time in the NFL

Then the AFL can kick in to full swing

Go Tiges

Is that a trick question Taz? 

There's been more misses than hits. We should let the head recruiter do the recruiting 

[lamington]

But Conti and Brennan were marquee players so that was a bit of a Gimmie. Everything after that has been super average. Ellie mckenzie was a tick but we really can’t nail our first round which is eerily similar to our mens

True. And like the men, it was an indictment on our season as a whole that reflected the huge gap between our best and worst.
