I didn’t give it much of a chance for a Wed night game off of a four day break, but #AFLTigersFreo ended up producing a pretty good game! There were plenty of positive signs throughout it and plenty of moments to like, here are some of my fave individual efforts:
Ryan put in yet another amazing performance to add to his AA campaign! He was a solid ad a rock despite being set a pretty huge task

Serong was a stand out yet again and continues to contribute to the incredible season he is putting together! Love his contested work, he is so intelligent and the speed of his decision making is unreal

Week in week out, Schultz delivers the goods! Loved this run down on Martin, the repeat pressure efforts he puts in are so important

This mark was awesome, Lobb plucked it straight from the oppositions hands

This was an outstanding kick from Aish! Couldn’t have hit the spot better, when he delivers the ball i50 it’s just magnificent

This pressure from Mundy that forced the turnover was amazing, incredible that he was putting in a chase like that in his 329th game

Hughes doing what he does best, putting his head over the ball and winning it! He’s a beast physically, love seeing him use his size

This was an unreal tackle by Acres, completely nailed it! Loved seeing how well he performed yesterday, he was a huge presence around the ground

Another great moment from Acres was this mark, it was super courageous of him to stand under it in the circumstances

The way that the defence are playing for each other has been the highlight of the season, watching how solid their cohesion is each week is and the amount of confidence you have when the ball goes in there is really exciting

This corridor kick from Mundy was seriously good! Richmonds defensive set up is the best I’ve seen, for Mundy to find a target right in the middle of it and hit it uncontested was amazing

Probably the highlight of the game for me seeing Acres stream through the ground like this! Absolutely nailed his role on return, can’t wait to see what else he delivers this season

I really enjoyed Hogans return, he asserted himself on the game crashing packs and taking awesome marks! He worked his ass off, it was great to see

This tap from Mundy was so clever, it’s an exciting thought that a player this talented and instinctual is one of the players the next generation are learning from

Another brilliant show of pressure from Schultz was in this play, him nailing this tackle led to a goal when they were really hard to come by and was a big moment in the game! His desperation to impact every contest is super admirable

Fyfe was incredible yet again, he is an animal in the contest. His contest and clearance work last night was phenomenal! His effort is unreal and cannot ever be faulted, best player in the game and it’s not even close!

This handball was crazy clever! The fact that he was lying face down on the ground and hit Acres with the handball is amazing, instinct like this can’t be taught! We have a serious player on our hands

They weren’t happy with the honourable loss, but I hope that the team is proud of their valiant effort! There’s no denying the difficult circumstances they were under for this game, I really enjoyed the fight they put up despite! Onwards and upwards
