I know it was only the first quarter, but they were calmer than I expected. Both coaches were focusing more on systematic and structural problems rather than individual errors too, which is a fascinating insight that I wouldn't have expected either.

[@Jawbone1807]

This game was honestly the most exciting game even if ur team wasn’t playing 🔥

[@ginarehm016]

Yes

[@jacquesdelyons3516]

Exactly. Yet apparently you are some kind of pariah in 2021 if you so much as mutter that football was fine before the stand on the mark rule change.

[@rayoflight8182]

Also it's prove that you can have great games with low scores.

I go for port Adelaide

[@rayoflight8182]

I never expected to hear a 3 time premiership coach saying grass is our friend . Can you imagine a runner coming out to you and saying" don't forget grass is our friend".

[@mitchellkeil7697]

As a richmond supporter, this game made me feel more nervous than the grand final

[@coreykyriakides2372]

Honestly same because port where honestly the best tram all season last year but got the job done 👌🏻

[@kristianrobinson1644]

the tempo and consistency of both their game plays makes them so enjoyable and nail biting to watch

[@aidensearle7859]

One of the best ganes i have watched, and being a non bandwagon richmond fan, i was very happy

[@markc5442]

Awesome access, can't wait for the next quarter (:

[@sassybdassi6686]

so interesting to hear the coaches' comments

[@darkassassin6457]

7:45 dursma (or however you spell his name) is a decent footy player and I don’t mind seeing a bit of “look at me” but you can’t do that, go up to lynch and then later in the game drop an absolute sitter in the square

[@MentalXO]

A 20 year old on a big night having fun? God forbid footballers having personality's. 🥴🥴

[@TheAlphaDingo]

agree, he should change his name to DUDSma - finals footy is the business end of the AFL season, if you are going to showboat and act like a prat, at least have the ability to deliver on the big stage. He just looked like an immature showoff.

[@nato5623]

we did beat them in the qualifying final. so i reckon it would've been very close

Is there a part 2 ?

6:28 Never understood how that was not a free-kick for Robbie Gray, the guy had his hand around him and pulled him over without touching the ball.

[@sov839]

There’s probably about 30 similar instances this game going both ways in this game that weren’t called.

[@Kobokhop22]

@@sov839 True it's sad how subjective the umpiring is in AFL. Teams receive massive benefits from freekicks gained and lost

[@mr.warden124]

Surprised Dimma didn't complain about playing in Adelaide instead of the G

Are you daft? Tiges won the flag interstate

Why would someone let them show your plans. AFL directed Im sure. That is unprofessional

don’t cry

[@kaidenwestendorp7658]

Well it doesn't really matter. I'm sure most coaches already knew this was the kinda stuff being spoken about inside the other teams coaching box. Plus the game has already changed so much in 2021 that whatever information you have on how they coached last year is irrelevant
