As there hasn't been much on the forums about Richmond lately I thought I would see how this goes.
On dominance in each game through a finals series, forget who the competition is or how good you may think they are, is Richmonds two Premiership years the two most dominant in the history of football, I'm asking as I cant be bothered looking myself but surely they are right up there.
2017
Qualifying final v Geelong, MCG: 10.6 (66) to 3.6 (24). Won by 51 points.
Preliminary final v Greater Western Sydney, MCG: 10.6 (66) to 4.7 (31). Won by 36 points.
Grand Final v Adelaide, MCG: 10.8 (68) to 4.5 (29). Won by 48 points.
Total 135 points
2019
Qualifying final v Brisbane, Gabba: 11.1 (67) to 4.7 (31). Won by 47 points.
Preliminary final v Geelong, MCG: 8.8 (56) to 2.4 (16). Won by 19 points.
Grand Final v Greater Western Sydney, MCG: 10.7 (67) to 2.1 (13). Won by 89 points.
Total 155
Geelong 2007 are certainly up there with probably the greatest winning total in finals history with 228 but they did only win their prelim by 5 points against Collingwood so not a dominant win, possibly the same could be said against our 19 point win against Geelong this year but over a whole finals series has there been a more dominant, dominance?
No throwing stones.
