      Swans hierarchy will be watching big Toby today and thinking, "mmmmmm, if only circumstances were different at the end of last season". He's been very good, today and all season.

        I wonder, if Dusty wins the Norm Smith, would North be kicking themselves they didn't throw absolutely stupid numbers at him to try and get him? There's no way you can offer a single player say $2M a year but if Dusty hand retired, his stocks would have risen this week

          I'll die if Nankervis or Houli get the Norm Smith.

            Why?

            Houli was Bog imo
            He ate more cheese, than time allowed

              Tigers have taken away the crows system and pressure has been immense. So much intensity directed at the crows ball carriers.
              It's all about the umpiring when the game is in the balance. Giving away some constellation frees when the game is over (as happened last year in the last few minutes ) does make up for the many mistakes beforehand.

                Tigers completely outplayed Adelaide today. Deserving Premiers! Good on them, I'm very happy for their fans.

                  umpiring wasn't the difference today by any means.

                  I agree it's in the timing of the free kicks not just number but Adelaide got dismantled. Crows got more than twice the kicks we got last year.

                    Top two in the stats and fantasy points, for Richmond anyway: Bachar Houli 18 5 23 9 0 0 0 5 1 2 119
                    Toby Nankervis 10 8 18 4 28 0 2 3 0 0 92 Really happy for Toby, deserves it, played brilliantly.

                        Yep, timing is everything and I thought Houli did the damage early.

                        Nankervis seems ready made for finals. Too late to swap for Tippett?

                            Nankervis was destroyed by Jacobs! Only got a few touches in junk time.

                                45 hitouts to 28, not exactly destroyed and Toby got more possessions, marks and tackles.....and fantasy points. Destroyed, I don't think so.
