Richmond 2.2 4.6 6.9 10.11 (71)
Geelong continued their imperious form, brushing aside Richmond to celebrate fullback Matthew Scarlett's 200th AFL match with a 63 points AFL victory in front of 42,238 crowd at Telstra Dome - their ninth in a row.
AS REALITY checks go, this one was brutal. Geelong showed emerging Richmond just how much more it must improve to challenge the best sides with an emphatic 63-point victory at Telstra Dome last night.
Richmond coach Terry Wallace said before the game he believed his emerging side could match Geelong for contested ball, and he was right.
What the Tigers couldn't equal was the Cats' skill, their furious tempo linking up through handball and their enviable variety of scoring options. But when Geelong stepped on the gas early in the second term, it was all the Tigers could manage not to eat the Cats' dust
