Dreamtime at the 'G | Richmond v Essendon Highlights | Round 10, 2019 | AFL

The Tigers entered Saturday night's Dreamtime at the 'G clash against Essendon missing first-choice big man Toby Nankervis through injury and suspended back-up Ivan Soldo.

But with teeming rain for the first half at the MCG, and slippery conditions thereafter, any advantage the Bombers could have enjoyed in the dry was gone.

And it left the Tigers, armed with a fleet of small forwards, a strong-bodied midfield and a dependable back half, to run away with a strong 22-point win.

Conditions suited the Tigers as much as they hurt the Bombers in the 10.12 (72) to 6.14 (50) victory, which was Richmond's sixth win from its past seven games.
