On an overall team front, Richmond managed to score 100 points in a match for the first time this season.
The Tigers had, in fact, not notched 100 points in a game since Round 21, 2018 v Gold Coast at Metricon Stadium.
Only three AFL teams cracked the ton in Round 8 – Richmond, Collingwood (v Carlton) and Geelong (v North Melbourne).
Richmond’s final score of 17.9 (111) against the Dockers was the highest of Round 8.
