Game Day Richmond Tigers v GWS Giants - Grand Final - Sat 28 Sep, 2:30PM AEST, MCG

[RAPPA]

Is it wrong to nana nap during a GF?

The way GWS is playing, if Richmond went to sleep in the 3rd they’d still have the lead

 

[MinerBoy]

Don't care who wins but would love GWS to somehow work their way back in to this and give us the tight finish.

Struggling to see it though.

 

[Deadpool]

Norm has Dusty's name on it if he has a similar second half.

 

[Braybrook Son]

Can't wait till Caracella gets to work at Essendon if he can get us playing anything like the Tigers oh boy

You need the players first mate!

 

[Sea fog]

People hate the Pies but at least we usually are competitive in finals and provide entertainment.

What a flog Phil Davis is.

 

[Magma]

Is it wrong to nana nap during a GF?

gws have for half of it

 

[Messenger]

Ladies and gents, enough with the umpiring.

If there is a silver lining, consider that we had great prelims for real fans and the mostly corporate audience gets a shit show.

 

[Chaisa]

Half of Prestia's touches have been turnovers.

Martin, Vlaustin and Riewoldt the clubhouse leaders.

Castagna would be close if he had converted some of his shots.

Worry Pickett's gonna be close. He's been fine but the hype outweighs it.

 

[Pakenhamsaint]

Was this result ever in doubt? Would have been a better gf if we played. But nah we also decided to not show up for 3 quarters. Oh well. Richmond too good.

It's 3rd vs 6th. There's a reason why GWS are 6th.

 

[Boristown]

Who would have thought the big big sound was actually the sound of the Giants ****ting the bed in the biggest game of their life.

 

[FreoRicci]

I said it earlier at the time, but jesus that Himmelberg miss and then Reiwoldt flop was massive for this game. Completely changed after that.

Himmelberg has to kick that. Kicks that, and it’s 2 points.

 

[HawkMongrel]

Umpire chat at half time. Giants double the free kicks in the second half.

Nothing surer.

 

[Lucky Star]

Tony Greene struggling, only one eye gouge so far.

 

[WCfan22]

Turned off TV . There's no way for gws to beat 21 players and not converting doesn't help. Well done who ever wins you "earned" it. Umpires for norm smith.

 

[Glenhope]

It's not over yet. Long way to go.

 

[Snarls Barkley]

Norm Smith leader?
Prestia?

I think Dusty has been most influential

 

[teknodeejay]

Richmond 1-39 looks done for in my multi...

Yep blown unfortunately. Second time in your life a Davis’ decision has screwed you.

 

[DinoSoar]

" worked underneath it "

It’s a great euphemism for a push in the back, isn’t it?

 

[seanoff]

GWS statistically have a 3.5% chance of winning from here. The reality is they are no hope.

This will get out to about 100 if GWS are lucky. May even give Port a shake

 

[PhiloBeddoe]

How many arm chop **** you’s is Amon Buchanan doing today? Merchant banker.

 

[Scottish Bob]

Richmond 1-39 looks done for in my multi...

Yep, it’s not looking good. Buggers my multi too.

 

[Neale4brownlow]

" worked underneath it "

Basically richmonds gameplan all year.

Umps cracked down on it in the brissie game which was good to see. Its a blatant free every time.

Not being paid today though along with htb.

A bulldogs style victory today.

GWS really look woeful though. No forwardline structure. That 2nd last entry was from a ballin 70 out from gws goal.. yet de boer was the only one in their 50 against 4 tigers.....

.... the mind just boggles how thats possible at this level on grand final day.

GWS more concerned with trying to stop rich.ond than what theyre supposed to be doing with it.

Games over. Bizare anticlimatic build up to even see these 2 teams in it this year (5th and 6th for a long while late in the year). Tigers fall into the top 4 and play into form at the right time of the year to take the easiest of cups in the end.

Sack razor ray.
Sack channel 7.

Congrats Tigers.

Ladies and gents, enough with the umpiring.

If there is a silver lining, consider that we had great prelims for real fans and the mostly corporate audience gets a s**t show.

Seen far worse umpiring than this. Been a few missed calls but Giants are just getting pantsed to be honest.

 

[gutsroy]

Not much of contest.
Tigers just too good.
Thought those who were talking about GWS having played their GF last week were pretty cocky, but it looks like they were on to something.
My mob missed a chance to run the Tigers closer than this, I guess, but we might have gone even worse. Who knows.
Well done Richmond.

 

[The King!]

Not in the second half they dont.

game over?
yeah probably

i cant see it, but not like 35 is not doable
