Richmond introduced the AFL extravagance with surprising taste in dismantling the Western Bulldogs wednesday night at Metricon Stadium.
In a contest that many enthusiasts think can go all the way, it’s a one-way traffic for the Tigers who simply did what they were looking for with a 13.12 (90) to 7.7 (49) victory.

Brownlow superstar Dustin Martin led the Tigers’ rate, finishing the contest with 26 eliminations and 3 goals to his credit.
But in the final quarter, with the end of the match, when the mercurial star let everyone look with absolute disbelief.
Martin took possession of a ball in the middle of a platoon and after shaking a inning, passed it on to a teammate before lifting it up and running to the 50s limit and hitting the ball in the middle of the goal.

It was a moment that showed the full extent of the damage Martin could do in the area and added the icing to the cake of such a dominant night, not only from the star midboxer, but from the entire Tigers team.

The Bulldogs started the game for the first purpose of the contest, but as smart as for the favorite team that entered the contest.
Richmond simply took the game all over the box as they fled and climbed the most sensitive 8 on the ladder.
“I’m proud of the way we play. We didn’t get the result last week, but we’re playing on the right foot,” Martin said after the game.
When asked about his purpose in the last quarter, a slow Martin said he had probably achieved it inside.
“It was a little cheeky, maybe I did, but I practice them in education, so I know why not,” he said.
The Bulldogs are likely to fall outside the 8th most sensible once the circular has ended with the club back in action on Monday night when they face Port Adelaide in Adelaide Oval.
Richmond will return to Metricon Stadium when faced with the most sensible team in the Brisbane Lions.
