Game Day Richmond v West Coast Eagles, Round 22 - 13:10 AEST, Aug 18, 2019

[Quinz]

One of the games of the year.

Well done Tigers, you deserved it.

Our backline did not play to the conditions at all.

 

[TW Sherrin]

Eagles flashy outside types disappeared when it started raining.

 

[Eagleboy68]

Good effort umps getting Richmond up

Earned your pay you vfl cheating campaigners

 

[Xtreme]

They haven’t learnt still.

You'd think they'd invest in some sprinklers and train in the wet on their home ground!

 

[quotemokc]

Great game to watch.

If it doesn't start raining WC probably win by 10 goals though.

 

[Scotland]

Looking forward to the narrative all week about how we can't play in the wet etc.

 

[teknodeejay]

This weekend’s games have been a win for all footy fans.

 

[underthestars]

Nice try west choke, couldn’t even get over the line with an extra man. Priceless

Huh they were a man down for ages? Lol

 

[BIRDBRAIN]

Not bothered at all by this result. Two best teams in the comp just went at it.

Objectively, that studs up rule sucks. It's gotta be re-written to outlaw the dangerous element of what Greene was doing, not just the studs up element of it.


Not too worried after that... unless it rains in September. That's Richmond and Port who've made us look awful in the wet.

 

[Elmer_Judd]

Let's not sugarcoat it folks, umpires won the game for an undeserving Richmond today.

Can't see them going far in September tbh.

Eagles will be fine, reload next week and hopefully get a top two finish.

 

[Turnover]

Great game. Will be the gf, with eagles to win if jack isn’t allowed to cheat and Tom isn’t being protected.

 

[Dockernut]

Yyyyyaaaaasssss!!!!!

 

[fnerd]

Barass having a mare. I'd be confidrnt on the g in a grannny which is almost certainly going to be dry

Lol -so your saying you need it not to rain to win??

 

[iBeng]

Lions vs Richmond gonna be HUGE!

 

[OhhDeledio]

* me that free riewoldt got pinged for twice... shocking rule get rid of it

 

[jaguaress]

The umpires couldn’t give the eagles enough love...

 

[Eagleboy68]

Richmond so brave with their umpires in their pockets

 

[boncer34]

Richmond fans booing the umpires off the ground?

Why?

 

[Floppy]

Gee, Umpires favored Tigers heavily..

Great game to watch. Not sure it will give anyone that much of an advantage if they meet again - love to see it in a Prelim though. For all those Richmond fans who’ve gotten stuck into Geelong about ducking, seems your boys were beneficiaries of ducking and getting high frees that shouldn’t have been there for mine. Season’s heating up now. Well done both teams

Eagles have been bullied today.

LOL.

West Coast took it right up to them in the wet, will have confidence in the dry.
