Crows Overrun Tigers After Halftime in 37-Point MCG Win

Injuries exposed Richmond's thin list during a long-term rebuild.

Overview

  • Adelaide defeated Richmond 14.14 (98) to 9.7 (61) at the MCG after trailing by 10 points at half-time.
  • The game flipped in the third quarter when the Crows kicked five unanswered goals, setting up a second half they won nine goals to two.
  • Josh Rachele drilled a long set shot late to steady the Crows as Richmond threatened to close the gap.
  • Jordan Dawson, Izak Rankine and Wayne Milera led the surge, with Dawson moving into midfield after the break to lift Adelaide's control.
