What a craaaap free for deliberate even though a free against Selduck is a rarity. 

Yeah i reckon he just missed hit it.

[Sir Why You Little 37,121]

Rubbish shepherd...

[Nasher 33,617]

Horribly soft free against Riewoldt.

Before this started I was hoping for a Richmond out in straight sets outcome for the LOL Richmond factor, but now that we are here I am reminded about how much I bloody hate Geelong. Definitely no animosity for the Tiges. Hope they smash 'em.

Adelaide looking a class above so far.

Sonebody take out Patrick Dangerfield. I am so sick of that smug bastard

Seriously the guy is awesome to watch. Give me him than Rance. Seriously the guy ducked and virtually head butted taylors knee and then goes down like he was shot, then sooks it up to the ump then abuses the trainer who was only trying to help him stem the blood flow. Not the first time he has dropped easily either. 

and he was made AA captain. My god. 

Hope the cats smash em. 

[darkhorse72 1,925]

How wide are those posts? 

[biggestred 5,135]

31 tackles to 25 start of 2nd q

 

 

The dees would have made 4 by now

I never mentioned Rance

i want somebody to belt Dangerfield. Jeelong are a one man team, totally over rated for at least the last 5 years

I think this quarter is evidence that we need another small forward with incredible speed like Garlett, rather than midfielders in the forward line.

Maybe Martin, who will then be suspended for 3.  Then the bikie wouldn't need to worry about our sovereign borders.

Cats are really crumbling under pressure. So many dropped sitters. 

[deelete my account 1,194]

I still think this game has a bit of a choking smell to it with RIchmond not converting.

Our lot would be 50 pts down vs Richmond by now with this level of physical pressure...this would be way too hard for us.

Pretty impressed with Richmond...particularly their ability to improve vs. last year after looking like they were headed the other way...

[SaberFang 7,151]

Geelong look absolutely [censored] terrible. How did this team finish second on the ladder?

Fixturing

[Macca 17,032]

The Tigers are playing as well as the Crows last night

It's difficult to judge the Crows performance all the same ... it's not often that a team gets to exercise a training run disguised as a top of the table qualifying final.

GWS were insipid.

That's the idea!!

[What 18,810]

Richmond are being handed this game on a platter and they are wasting every opportunity.

Its hilarious.

If Motlop can kick 3 or 4 and help get Geelong over the line, will we finally consider him as a RFA worth a punt ?

It can't be overstated enough, rubbish teams like Port, West Coast and Geelong get such a free ride from biased fixturing and the ensuing umpiring advantage.

And wow, that's as typical a Richmond final ten seconds I've ever seen.

This reality is too fake and scripted! Do middle tier sides ever stop missing chances and leaking junktime goals? :/

Richmond should easily be 4 or 5 goals up. But only 9 points. It would be typical richmond to drop this game and I would laugh if they did. 

[Lord Travis 10,763]

Geelong will likely win this one. Richmond absolutely dominated that half and yet are only 9 points up. Did not take their opportunities, and Geelong can only get better from here.

The Martin love makes me sick. Ling on channel 7 just showed a clip of why he is so good... was literally a clip of him jogging 60 metres. Didn't touch the ball, wasn't involved in any play, just jogged a bit across the ground. Apparently the fact he keeps moving makes him a superstar. Pathetic.

spelling

[dl4e 5,851]

Richmond are tiring already. It is just that Geelong can't kick goals coz their midfield is being done like a dinner. Second half will be interesting.

I was thinking of using the term Richmondian......but then thought of our more Mebournian finish to the year ?
