BEHIND - Tigers (Tom J. Lynch)
14:36
Possibly not the midfielders most would have expected to be prominent early on, but both Shai Bolton and Brandon Parfitt have accumulated four contested possessions each. Bolton has two clearances and Parfitt has four, though just one of Parfitt's clearances has been effective and both of Bolton's have been effective.

SCORE
GOAL - Tigers (Daniel Rioli)
22:45
Richmond gets a late goal to extend the lead to 14 points at quarter time. It is a late reward for a first-quarter largely controlled by the side with 64% of play in the Richmond forward half. It took three marks inside 50 in the first term whilst Geelong was unable to take a mark in the forward 50.

00:00
Q2 is now underway.
02:46
It's a fairly even spread in the numbers so far with Geelong holding slight leads in disposal efficiency (69%-67%), contested possessions (37-36), and uncontested possessions (52-48).
03:05
SCORE
GOAL - Cats (Brad Close)
04:00
Brad Close records his first disposal of the match with a goal, Geelong's first of the match.
06:12
It has been shallow entries for Geelong to this point in the match with all six of its kicks inside 50 landing 30 metres or more from goal. Probably not coincidentally all six of these kicks have originated 70 or more metres from goal, hence producing the shallow entries.
10:27
Harry Taylor has seven kicks thus far and is going at 57% kicking efficiency, in just one of his matches this season has he had a lower kicking efficiency.
11:53
SCORE
BEHIND - Cats (Tom Hawkins)
14:11
Geelong leads throw in clearances nine to three but has produced just one behind from this source, meanwhile, Richmond has kicked two goals from its throw in clearances.

SCORE
BEHIND - Tigers (Trent Cotchin)
16:02
Brandon Parfitt leads all players with nine contested possessions to this point in the match. However, his kicking efficiency of 38% is a low point, though not uncharacteristic for him as he has a season average 47% kicking efficiency - the lowest of any Cats player to have played 10 matches this season.

21:23
Jack Riewoldt takes his fourth mark inside 50 for the match, second contested, and kicks his fourth goal for the match - his equal highest tally of the season.

It has been a low-efficiency match for Patrick Dangerfield who has a disposal efficiency of 47%, partially explained by receiving 2.37 pressure points per disposal for the match. Tom Atkins has performed well when pressured with a disposal efficiency of 81% despite receiving 2.21 pressure points per disposal - the second most of any player.

SCORE
BEHIND - Cats (Jed Bews)
25:50
It may sound odd that a quarter in which a team scores 2.8 was successful but Richmond set itself apart in the third term despite its inaccuracy. It took nine marks inside 50 during this term which is the most of any team in a quarter this season. In this quarter it also won intercept possessions 17 to nine and its 10 scoring shots to one was the equal third largest scoring shot differential in a quarter this season.
