Zebras dominate VFL Tigers

By Richmond Media
19 May 2024

Richmond VFL suffered a challenging defeat against Sandringham, with the Zebras securing a commanding 110-point victory at Trevor Barker Oval on Sunday.

The Tigers, with only four AFL-listed players among them, started promisingly, kicking the opening goal in the first 90 seconds of the match.

Sandringham responded assertively by claiming the next three goals of the first term.

The pattern repeated in the second quarter, with Jacob Koschitzke notching the first major for Richmond, only to be countered by three consecutive goals from the opposition.

Although Koschitzke added another goal, Sandringham dominated the term, adding five goals to their scoreline.

Injuries continued to impact the Tigers in the first half, with AFL-listed player Sam Naismith leaving the ground due to a suspected ACL injury, followed by Austin Johnson's withdrawal after a heavy collision.

Sandringham increased their dominance in the second half, preventing Richmond from scoring and ultimately securing a resounding 110-point victory.

Despite the loss, Richmond's vice-captains Joel Garner and Chad Harris exhibited impressive performances.

Garner showcased solidity in the backline, accumulating 19 disposals and seven marks, earning him the Pat Cronin Medal as the Tigers' best on ground.

Harris contributed significantly with 21 touches, displaying consistent commitment and effort.

Kaleb Smith, unaffected by his travel from Brisbane as Richmond’s AFL emergency, delivered a standout performance at half-back, finishing the game with a team-high 22 disposals.

Jacob Koschitzke also looked lively throughout the match and displayed unwavering effort.

The match served as Pat's Match, supporting the Pat Cronin Foundation in their campaign against coward punches.

Looking ahead, Richmond VFL anticipates a special occasion as they face Essendon in the Dreamtime curtain raiser at the MCG next week.

Sandringham 20.14 134 def. Richmond 3.6 24

Goalkickers: Koschitzke (2), George

Best: Garner, Smith, Harris, Koschitzke

What is disgraceful? Are you "blaming" the medical & conditioning staff for someone doing a ACL?

If their strength training isn't done properly, then a muscle imbalance makes stuff like ACLs much much much more likely.

Must have had poor strength and conditioning training each of the 4 times he’s done it then.

Seriously your posts are tiresome. You’ll go after claw and the Italian fellow for mouthing off but anyone who disagrees with your takes and out come the childish replies with your little  at the end of it like what your saying is gospel.

‘Meehan apologists’. Yeah right. There is an endless list of injuries to go after Meehan for that show that whole department needs a revamp. There’s really no need to clutch at straws and blame him for ACL’s. What’s next concussions?

[Diocletian]

Exhibit A right on cue  -cry harder...you're like a poor man's Al ...same smug self-righteousness but without the wit & humour he had to temper it......(although at least you don't also spout leftist dribble like he was prone to on occasion so I'll give you that)....if Meehan decided on concussions we'd have comatose players being sent back out....

[Tiger Khosh]

Whatever you say poor man’s claw

Same tendency to flood the forum with pot shots directed at everything and everyone at the club and then at other posters who dare question your opinion

 

[Diocletian]

lmao "I know you are but what am I hur dur hur"....sterling stuff..... (btw claw gets triggered by the too)

Danog explained it clearly but these clowns still don't get it and keep carrying on like you insulted their mum.......

Let's be honest you wouldn't have a clue what he has done, or hasn't done. We can only look at the current state of play, and it's not very positive for our guy.

While I don't think Naismith 4th acl is a result of magic hands, I do suspect his unprofessional may have had something to do with gibcus missing.

The club would gain some respect if they come out and told the members they were reviewing his position,

[Tiger Khosh]

Fair enough take FJ.

Department 100% needs an overhaul just based on soft tissue injuries and repeat injuries alone.
