(Ed’s note: Scoring error)
There has been an issue with Sydney’s first-quarter score. It is being rectified. Standby for more information.
Goal: Heeney, you beauty!
It took forever. Scoring has dried up big time …
More than 13 minutes into the second term, it’s Isaac Heeney who gets the first for the quarter.
Q2, 13.24 – Sydney 3.7 (25) lead Richmond 3.6 (24)
What the fans are saying
Up and going in the second term
Richmond haven’t blinked so far. They’ve had the better of the match and the task is in front of Sydney, a team of seasoned campaigners, to find their way to the front.
QT: Tigers win the term
There’s the siren for the first break. Richmond take it by a nose. This match offers plenty today.
Quarter-time: Richmond 3.4 (22) lead Sydney 2.4 (16)
Goal: Warner for the Swans
Very late in the first quarter … Chad Warner does it. The Swans keep Richmond in check. Match back on level terms.
Goal: Sydney drag one back
Nick Blakey, who is running free and needs to be checked, slots one. Sydney end Richmond’s run. That, really, was much-needed. Sydney gave up a stack of goals in a row last week against the red-hot Crows … surely Richmond are a different outfit, but the Swans need to bounce back strongly today.

Goal: Another one Richmond
That’s three goals on the bounce for Richmond. Dion Prestia, you beauty!
The Tigers earned a free kick close to goal after Sydney was penalised for an insufficient attempt offence. Prestia sold candy twice to opponents and drilled the major. Top stuff.
The player dubbed the “Human Meatball” delivered there ….
Q1, 18.31 – Richmond 3.2 (20) lead Sydney 1.0 (6)

Goal: Back-to-back for Richmond
Barely one minute from Taranto’s major, Seth Campbell gets one for Richmond. The Tigers with a handy lead midway through the opening term.
