Tigers played keepings off and strangled Hawthorn. Hawks only kicked 2 goals total in first, third & last qtrs. They looked more intent to defend than attack & played their normal crude game. Tigers now have Fremantle, Sydney & Hawthorns measure. About time a few Hawks were suspended. Racist game with lots of BOOING

Yeah great win by the Tigers against Freo last week. Seriouly mate they have to get in the top four yet and looking at Sydneys run home they are still favorites to lock away the last spot in the four, while the Tigers performance last night was great, they have beaten the Hawks in three of the last four occasions and guess whose gone on to win the premierships.

Sydney still have an easy run home, should get top 4.
Id say that loss could be the best thing for Hawthorn.
Freo will get a top 2 spot now I think.
Eagles not safe for top 2, still big games to come.
Richmond are the weirdest team in the AFL. Have a history of beating Hawthorn and then losing games that are unlosable.
At least its an unpredictable season of sorts. Helps keep interest.

I will say if Hawthorn play Richmond in a final, don't expect things to be the same as last nights game. Hawks are a finals built side.

If Adelaide knock over Sydney today which is possible given that the Swans are not in great form and have had the other distraction in the past week, then Richmond have a great chance of finishing 4th.

Eagles looked flat, lucky to get out with a draw.

Not sure mate about Richmond, been down this road before, I reckon they blew a good chance v Freo.

that was typical Richmond, and they will do it again.

Spot on, that was typical Richmond if there ever was an example, as you say , they are liable to do something stupid again down the track, stuff up against a weak team right when they need to win, or something like that.
