Those last 3 and a half minutes could be big in tonights result. The clock on the TV had disappeared but the siren had not sounded when Dangerfield kicked so there was less than a second left when he goaled.

Lots of praise for all of the Tigers smalls pressure and tackling inside 50 but they are ratshit with their hands. They are handball happy but give poor handballs, the receiver is fumbly and drops the ball or fumbles and allows Geelong to tackle the receiver and they miss opportunities to score. The Tigers should have kicked 8 to 10 goals by half time but stuffed around with poor ball use.

This game has been 1000x better than last nights snooze fest yet only 5 goals have been kicked. That says a lot about last nights game.

It's also glaringly obvious how little effort GWS put in when they didn't have the ball after watching these 2.

I have the impression that Richmond's interpretation of the proverb "Offense wins games; Defense wins championship" is not the best one...

One gotta win games to win championships! Dominating the game, but not scoring is THE FORMULA for losing!
