Geelong had 428 today, Richmond had 374 = 802 disposals

Geelong on left, Richmond on right:
Long Kicks: 57 - 55
Short Kicks: 89 - 84
Kicks: 198 - 185
Effective H/Bs: 203 - 151
Handballs: 230 - 189
Disposals: 428 - 374
(Eff: 84% - 78%)

Both teams had more handballs than kicks.

The Cats' 230 handballs is the equal highest tally at AFL level. The top 10 list of record handballs entries all feature matches from 2007 and 2006 (seven of the top 11 by WC).

It's like they both cheated to get to that 800 - the combined handballs (419) is easily a record.
