Rance was unreal, that moment he ran off Franklin to intercept Kieran Jack was crucial
Richmond Tigers vs Sydney Swans highlights: Tigers steal win at the death
My word how good was that! Richmond have come up Milhouse and stolen a win from the Swan’s grasp, after the siren.
Alex Rance was HUGE in that last quarter with all kinds of intercept marks and touches, he gave his all.
It was a game of massive momentum swings. The Swans came out like a house on fire, the Tigers steadied and kicked the last 3 goals of the first half, only to see Sydney kick the last 4 goals going into the last break.
The game was then set alight as Richmond hit the front with the first 5 goals of the final term, with Sydney hitting back once again with the next 4 goals.
The last two goals were absolutely clutch from Richmond and ended with Lloyd putting the cherry on top after the siren to see his side home by a point. What dreams are made of.
Brett Deledio was outstanding all night with his 34 disposals. He was joined by Dan Hannebery to lead all comers as the two of them ran all night for their respective sides.
Anthony Miles racked up 31 possessions, Dustin Martin was dangerous with his 28 and a goal, while Jack Riewoldt’s effort was unrelenting as he accumulated 18 disposals, 9 marks, and a goal.
For Sydney, Kieran Jack tried his heart out for 23 disposals, while Jack Lloyd had it 23 times too.
Ben Griffiths had the game of his life for 5 goals, matching Lance Franklin’s haul. The gamewinner Sam Lloyd kicked 3 majors, Daniel Rioli kicked 2 in the final term, while Hannebery and Tippett rounded out the multiple goal kickers with their 2 each for Sydney.
Well, there’s not much more to say now. It was a miraculous win in the end, and it may well spark Richmond’s season.
Sydney will be disappointed to concede a third straight loss to the Tigers, but we all know what they’re capable of, tonight was just one of those nights

Even if Richmond lose here, Alex Rance can hold his head up high for his effort this quarter, so good

Tigers fans are FURIOUS. They wanted a high tackle, but holding the ball is given against Riewoldt deep in the Richmond 50

Oh that’s sensational! Riewoldt poked it forward to Griffiths and he beat Richards in a foot race to dribble the ball into the open goal. His fifth, Tigers have a sniff

Parker is infringed and his long ball forward towards Franklin and Rance is marked beautifully by Tippett from the back. The big man extends the margin to 10 points, they’ve stood up when it matters here

Free kick Sydney out of a throw in deep in their 50. It’s Papley with the chance to put Sydney back in front and he puts in straight through the middle! Excellent from the young man

Last two goals to Sydney, they’re really coming. Richmond got a bit sloppy on the transition there before the goal

Or they could just do that. Jack kicks a crucial steadier for the Swans and it’s back to 7 points, this game is unreal. Kudos to Sinclair for his textbook tap there
