Game Review

The Tigers were held to just one behind in the second half despite only trailing the inside 50 ledger by five in this period. They struggled connecting inside 50 as afternoon, connecting with a team mate on just 48% of entries, compared to 63% from the Blues. A season-high 76 points for the Blues helps topple the Tigers by 55 points at Ikon Park. They were dominated in all facets of the match, leading the contested possessions by 22, inside 50s by 12 and clearances by two. Their 47-points differential from intercepts was too much of a challenge to stop, which was heavily fueled by 40 points from intercepts in their attacking midfield.
