Tigers vs Swans

[mightytiges]

The SCG site has the "Radius of goal arc" as 45m (what the?) and the centre square at 50m with the "distance from goal line to goal line" as 149m.

Which would put 2m between the square and each 45m arc.

Yep it's a little toy ground. Go the torp Newy!

Overcast day in Sydney. Light drizzle expected throughout the day.

We haven't scored more than 72 points in the past 4 games at the SCG.

[mightytiges]

Hyde tagging Goodes.
Richo has Roberts-Thompson on him.
Browny has Bolton on him.

Rushed behind to Swans after a dodgy Richo moment. 0 - 1.

[mightytiges]

King on Buchanan who has a goal from a free.
Tuck vs Kirk.

It would be nice if we could hit a target  .

Swans getting the frees 5 - 1. Umps not paying us frees  .

We've had it in our forward line but can't score.

Another rushed behind to the Swans. First score in about 10 minutes.

0 - 8

[mightytiges]

Inside 50s: 6 - 8
Possies fairly even.

Skill errors by Patto and Hyde result on a Swans goal.

0 - 14

Understatement of the year we need a score 

[mightytiges]

Our kicking errors are killing us. Going at a pathetic 54%. Swans are killing us.

0 - 20

[mightytiges]

Welcome back reality  . This could end up a 150 point flogging  .

0 - 39

Hyde and Tuck are showing why they aren't up to it. Forget the tags and go with Lids, Blingers and Foley.

[richmondrules]

It's going to be a loooooooooong day.

[mightytiges]

We've final scored. Point.

1 - 39

[richmondrules]

lol. The flood gates open!!!

[Ox]

We're back to Whack.

[mightytiges]

Richo set shot from 15m out. Hits the post  . Welcome back 5 years ago!

2 - 40

[mightytiges]

Tiges are now $11. That's not enough  .

QT:

Rich   0.2-2
Syd   6.4-40

Geez that was as bad as the Geelong game last year. No pressure, shocking skills. A complete rabble. 15 clangers to just 5. 8 inside 50s to 16.

Meaningless stats:
Lids         8
Newman  7
Sugar, Richo, Schulz 6
Bowden, Foley, Petts 5

Terry's had a shocker too. We went negative at the start with Hyde and Tuck in the centre with their dud kicking skills and have paid duely for it. Swans are happy to allow Richo to run around in defence.

[Ox]

0 centre clearances...

[mightytiges]

Yep Ox that's why we're going wide and indirect. Suicide on the SCG. We've had more of the ball but turned it over half the time.

So much for bringing back "senior" players. Old habits die hard  .
