Autopsy AFL 2020 First Preliminary Final - Port v Tigers Fri October 16th 7:50pm AEDT / 7:20pm AEST (AO) Match Highlights in OP

[chriso11]

Epic game! Kudos to both teams, prelim final weekend delivers again, even if I was barracking hard for a Tigers loss.

That deliberate call against Hartlett was huge. On replay from behind I think you can clearly see hm look to the left where his teammate was. It's probably said teammate's fault in that he didn't make more of an effort to get a hand to it to show Hartlett's intentions to the ump.

I think the Tigers will win the premiership now unfortunately. Beating Port in Adelaide was the biggest roadblock in their way. I know Brissie already beat them once in Brissie but tomorrow is 50/50 imo and either way the Tigers have the recent GF hardness to get them over the line.

The deliberate might not have been there in a normal game, but they were calling those deliberate all night, had no choice but to be consistent. Umps created their own dilemma really

Two things ....

Port should not have let Richmond take so many telling marks in their F50 in the last, unforgivable.

The umpires seemed to let the Richmond defenders maul Dixon all game with no penalty, kept pushing him out unfairly in the marking contests.

If anything, Richmond should have got more free kicks and Port less..

Trent Cotchin was a good person before the parasite that lives in his hair took over in 2012

Would you like some chips with that salt?

 

[Third Ring]

Yep. Spend time watching 1980s 1990s 2000 games on You Tube, the footy is so much better, but then, if you like this rugby style.... 2020 is sh*t so should Richmond win then the trend continues.

Bitter much....still?

 

[power09]

who would of thought continuing to pick Marshel after offering nothing all year would bite us in the end

shocker

 

[Brad Goodman]

Mason Cox still the only man who can stand between Richmond and flags apparently.

 

[Handsome_Jack]

Is Ebert retiring?

Love him but for his own sake he really should. Heart skips a beat every time he gets near a contest now

 

[chriso11]

Hartlett mind games.... they are probably going to Haunt him more over the off season than they impacted Lynch tonight. Would have been better to shut his trap and let his footy do the talking

 

[underthestars]

missed a real opportunity port. just too panicked. richmond with the calmer heads when it mattered. still not near best form, but they know how to win.

 

[balmainforever]

We can win clearances if we really want to. Hahahaha

 

[kickazz]

Turgid affair with some flashes of brilliance.
Tigers mids outperformed Porr's and were the difference in the end. Richmond won by the six extra behinds they scored; sometimes in these low scoring games getting behinds and locking it in F50 is not so bad.

Hamish Hartlett 100k of us just enjoyed ending your season utensil smack

 

[dean33]

What a win.
What a team.
Destiny beckons.

Torn apart

wish i were able to nominate this for some kind of post of the year. both for the pun, and being able to imagine that smug bigoted face sad

 

[juss]

I've paused AFL nation on SEN just so I can let Kane Cornes doing the post game sooth me to sleep

Courageous player. Was Hard to see him helped off the ground, hope he is alright

 

[Drewie11]

Port Power Chockers, only time I’ll listen to SEN Adelaide all year. See you Monday Kane

 

[hoopla]

What a performance in that last qtr absolutely incredible.

It takes more than a world-ending pandemic to beat Richmond!

I think consistent umpiring may have been enough to beat the tigers tonight

 

[kickazz]

We can win clearances if we really want to. Hahahaha

Made the difference tonight

 

[afl genius]

Hard to watch game at times, Richmond really love the low scoring slog fests. Did Port know that they don't have to bomb the ball to a huge pack down the line every time yeah? Just wasted oppurtunitys. Then having that ******** cotchin interviewed afterwards was like salt in the wounds for Port supporters

 

[Stevi_Tigers]

Bow and arrow guy went pretty quiet after chirping

 

[Black white]

Port should have worn their collingwood jumper, they would have had an excuse for choking then.

 

[BACCS]

I’ve always had a soft spot for the Tigers

 

[gordo2016]

They had their chances, they choked mate.

Had nothing to do with choking. Richmond are an outstanding team, Port fell just short and should be proud of their effort.
