2017 Toyota AFL Grand Final : Adelaide Crows v Richmond Tigers - 14:30 AEST, Sep 30, 2017 MCG

[Amazing Racer]

Thanks for not turning up Adelaide

 

[Power Raid]

This game isn't rocket science, Richmond did what the Dogs did last year, out-worked everyone.

Pressure on ball carrier is superb, just relentless all over the ground also. Adelaide can't fire a shot. Their spirit and intent is missing today.

Richmond have had it all go their way though, 3 games at the G, MRP, injuries. You need it.

The worst finals series in recent memory.

yep the work rate has been a noticeable difference

 

[Substance]

Frees?

Runs

 

[teknodeejay]

Richmond applying the type of pressure Adelaide dislike.

Well done Tiges one more quarter to go don't **** it up now.

 

[_Mike_]

Adelaide kicks 1 goal since 1/4 time and the "blame the umpires:" mantra comes into play. Adelaide have been playing second to the ball for most of the game. Their lack of effort isnt the fault of the umpires

Quick someone airlift Darren Jarman in, this game's gone to poo

The pies have already been eaten.

Is there something in the water in Perth?

Irrelevant. It's about fairness in a league

 

[ashep]

Just a reminder: 15-5 at 3/4 time last year.

Congratulations tiger supporters! Youve done it hard for a long time... Enjoy the last quarter

 

[thecatattack]

Adam Treloar, you dumbass. Hope you find consolation in that "greatest midfield ever"

Why do you care what team he went to?

 

[JoeHawk]

Richmond have utterly dominated the last two quarters of this game. Hardwick is a very deserving coach of the year, he has countered Adelaide perfectly here.

Clarko says Hi

Most grand final wins of late are Victorian teams beating interstate teams. It's so hard for interstate teams to win it. It needs to be evened out somehow. More ticket allocation for interstate teams or something.

Watching Richmond's pressure today, every time a Melbourne supporter has a cry about trading Watts, I want to stab someone.

 

[DERIBERATE]

Quick someone airlift Darren Jarman in, this game's gone to poo

Last time I saw him I doubt a Saturn V could lift him off the ground

 

[Leather Poisoning]

Imagine if Richmond lost it from here

Credit where it's due. The pressure from Richmond on the field and from the crowd has been crazy intense.

The Richmond bottom 6 performing much better than Adelaide's.

he umps certainly helped the tigers but overall the Crows are just panicky and far too tall in the backline. Can't stand umpire Ryan..by far the most inconsistent and gullible ump in the AFL

 

[jjsmitty8]

You can't convince me otherwise that Richmond have had the rub of the green with the umpiring, but the lead size has been 100% Richmond's doing. I feel like I'm watching the Geelong v Sydney semi all over again, and Sydney just haven't been able to fire a shot all game similar to Adelaide literally not being able to get a run on since 5 minutes into the game.

 

[Red Bull]

Gallucci having a cracking game for adelaide

 

[Kummerspeck]

Has there been a worse umpired gf?

This isn't even the worst in the last 365 days.

 

[MeestaNob]

Adelaide have been putrid.

[TW Sherrin]

Knowing Richmond's last quarter efforts I'm still to scared to text congrats my mates.

 

[TheOz]

I don’t think I’ve seen a bigger choke in a GF

Geelong 08

 

[SSSSSS]

What are the odds on Graham for Norm Smith?

3 goals, 15 touches and has done a big job on Sloane in the 3rd quarter taken him out of the game.
