Now that uni is finished I have my weekends back. Last night I was able to drop into Edihad Stadium an watch the Mighty Richmond Tigers rack up their 4th straight win of the season

What a turn around from the winless start to the season!

This win was even more memorable as Freo has been flying and is a top 4 team. On top of this, the Tiges were playing at lest half of the match without 2 players, with Griffiths copin a popped shoulder and Nason with blurred vision after a headclash with King.

I could (and should … and will) mention that there was some horrendous umpiring decisions, particulalry in the first half. Many going against the Tigers. This may have been accentuated to me at the time, as its hard to see with both eyes when you are amonst the yellow and black army ;) However it is worth mentioning that the free kick count stood at 13 to 21 at full time, in favour of Freo. We won despite these Maggots! …. so moving on!

It was good to see Nahas have a run in place of Tambiling who was omitted at the last minute due to soreness. He kicked one, but looked a little small out there and wasn’t the most influential.

Jumping Jack Reiwoltd finished the game with 5 and Andrew Collins with 2.

Damien Hardwick called this the “Best win of the Year”, and as I was actually there to see it, I wouldn’t be arguing the point.

The boys did me proud! I am still over the moon, and have not fully come down from last nights high.

I can’t describe the feeling when the final siren sounded and the Richmond theme song was played over and over…… still chuffed

The final score was…

Richmond 15.10.100 d. Fremantle 11.15.81

Carn the Tiges!!
