Tigers trying to hang in there in Hobart

A

By Andrew McGarry

The Tigers are hanging on here in the third term, after a goal from James Trezise a few minutes ago.

We are into time on, and the lead is still four goals. Can Richmond close the gap a bit more before the final change?

Darcy Fort continues Brisbane goal rush

A

By Andrew McGarry

The Tigers are at risk of being completely swept away here in Hobart.

The Lions are winning the clearances everywhere, including in the middle, and they make it pay again with a long kick to near the square where Darcy Fort takes a too-easy mark.

He kicks a goal, and that's six goals to two to Brisbane in the third term so far.

Eric Hipwood kicks a goal for Brisbane in his 200th game

A

By Andrew McGarry

That's a moment for the Lions!

The Tigers gave away a 50m penalty, and Eric Hipwood got to take a kick from inside 50.

The big man, who is playing his 200th AFL game after being out since round 23 last year with a knee injury, steers it through!

The entire team (or close to it) gets around him to celebrate. As he comes off the crowd cheers him and he high-fives teammates.

The Lions are looking too strong at the moment.

It's a shootout in Hobart!

A

By Andrew McGarry

We've had five minutes off the countdown clock at Bellerive Oval, and now we've had a total of six goals!

It's a shootout!

Zac Bailey is the latest to get one, that's his second.

The Lions have busted out to a 16-point lead.

Over to you, Tigers.

Richmond grabs a much-needed goal

A

By Andrew McGarry

Tyler Sonsie gets one back for Richmond.

That was very necessary, as the Lions have hit top gear after half-time.

What is happening? Will Ashcroft kicks a "worldie" from the pocket

A

By Andrew McGarry

Wow, the Brisbane Lions are on fire!

They seem to have been stung into action by Richmond's early goal, and they are taking it personally.

They force a forward 50 stoppage, it bounces out to near the boundary deep in the right forward pocket, and Will Ashcroft decides to turn into a mix of Peter Daicos, Jason Akermanis and a World Cup striker.

He bounces a kick from the boundary, it goes once, twice, three times and bounces through for an absolute ripper!

Will Ashcroft kicks another for the Lions

A

By Andrew McGarry

Will Ashcroft has made it two in two minutes for the Lions, as they kick into another gear.

Charlie Cameron puts Brisbane back ahead

A

By Andrew McGarry

That didn't last long!

The Lions spring into action from the centre bounce, with the tap to Lachie Neale, who runs forward and blazes a kick for Charlie Cameron near 50.

Cameron goes back and kicks the goal, and the Lions fans start singing a quieter than normal version of Country Roads as Brisbane retakes the lead.

RIchmond get an early goal to take the lead

A

By Andrew McGarry

Richmond have started as they mean to go on, with a goal to Jasper Alger.

The young forward has three to his name, and the Tigers lead by three in the early minutes.

By Andrew McGarry

The Tigers defence nearly holds together to end the half, but a late surge from Brisbane leads to a goal to Josh Dunkley.

As the siren goes the crowd applauds a big effort from Richmond, who pretty much deserve to be in front at this point.

The Lions showed their composure where it counted to take the lead, but there are questions for Chris Fagan and his men.

Tim Taranto has two goals and 20 disposals for the Tigers, and he is leading from the front.

Can they hang in there, or will the Lions kick into another gear? We will see.

The Tigers are in front

A

By Andrew McGarry

The second quarter is going very well for Richmond.

They forced a turnover when Charlie Cameron tried to do too much with it on the wing.

The Tigers then hit back, going down the line quickly before a long kick that hit Tim Taranto in the pocket.

The Tigers veteran steadied and took his set shot, steering the ball through as the crowd goes wild.

Richmond is back in front in time on in the second term.

Tigers close in with goal to Alger

A

By Andrew McGarry

It's not getting any easier for the Lions, whose defence is under real pressure here.

The Tigers are getting repeat chances, and they've hit a target inside 50 with a mark to Jasper Alger.

He kicks it, and Richmond is within two points!

Another chance wasted for the Tigers

A

By Andrew McGarry

The Tigers are raising the intensity, and creating chances.

Noah Balta took a great defensive mark, then as Richmond cleared upfield, he turned into an attacking weapon.

The big man took another mark on the left wing, and then kicked across 50 to hit James Trezise.

The set shot went wild, but there are some danger signs for Brisbane here.

Steely Green blows a chance for Richmond

A

By Andrew McGarry

Brisbane is in a fight here, despite their lead.

The Tigers are looking dangerous, and they were in there, with Steely Green getting a mark/free near the goals there.

Instead of going back, though, he decided to try the snap around the corner and sprayed it way wide - it barely went in for a point.

Chance wasted there.

Conor McKenna gets the early goal for the Lions

A

By Andrew McGarry

Richmond has started the second quarter well, and they should have had a goal early, but a kick went out on the full.

The Lions came back, and they fed it forward before a couple of punches along the ground to hit up Conor McKenna.

The Irishman steadied and snapped a goal. That will be very frustrating for Richmond. They could have been ahead, instead being down by nine.

Taranto has the ball on a string early

A

By Andrew McGarry

Richmond's Tim Taranto has had a hell of an opening quarter, with 13 disposals, a goal and a goal assist.
