REPORTS
A lovely pass from Dempsey to Williams in the opening minute saw the Bombers start the final quarter in style. His kick from 50m sailing through for a goal.
A good mark in defence from Hooker and classy work from Hille on the wing to find a running Ryder brought up the next Bomber goal.
The game see-sawed with Fletcher, Pears, Slattery and Hooker solid in defence and Ryder threatening near goals.
It took some excellent evasive work by Watson in the Bombers' forward 50m to bring up the next goal, his short kick finding Welsh who booted truly.
A shocking kick-out by Richmond saw a free kick awarded to Gumbleton. A 50m penalty to the Tigers then saw him taken to the goal square for an easy goal.
Davey missed a simple chance a minute later but his behind put the Bombers up by 64 points.
Davey had a chance to make amends moments later runing into goal but, unselfishly, he handballed over to Winderlich for Essendon's 22nd goal.
Excellent vision and skill by Prismall to find Hille resulted in the big fella's first, kicking truly from 45m out and the lead was out to 76-points.
