Was incredible. If Port can’t shut him down then look out
“I find it nearly impossible to make those judgments, but he is certainly up there with the really important ones, he is certainly up there with the Francis Bourkes and the Royce Harts and the Kevin Bartlett and the Kevin Sheedys, there is no doubt about that,” Balme said.

Shane Edwards

Edwards continues to fly under the radar and the onballer showed why he is such a crucial player in Richmond’s push for the flag. He booted the second goal of the game and ended with over 20 disposals, winning the ball in the clearances and spreading well around the ground.

Titch is a sensational footballer. If hardwick had to pick his best ever 6 players hes coached  it would be Cotchin, Martin, Riewoldt, Rance, Edwards and Grimes imho.

Would make a great memorabilia piece too. Ive got Tommys Guns memorabilia print maybe its Time for Dimmas Stars.

How great is Sheds?  His short pass to George that set up a goal early in the last quarter snuffed any hope the Saints may have had, it was actually the sealer, the icing on the cake! 
He is just so quick thinking in the packs, so creative & inventive.  Truly one of the most gifted players out there.     :clapping   
Once a Tiger, always a Tiger!  Loud, proud & dangerous!

Highest-rated players

Shane Edwards (Richmond):
Pure class, this bloke, and somehow still underrated even though everyone constantly says how underrated he is. 21 disposals, five clearances, seven score involvements and two goals is a heck of a night, and keep in mind we’re playing 20 per cent less game time with the shorter quarters this season, so that’s even better than it sounds.

Shane Edwards

Once again his poise was crucial in a big game and had a lot of his footy at the coal face heading towards the offensive half. Not a barnstorming game, but yet another person who just plays their role for this side.

Shane Edwards – 8
Seemingly brought his own dry footy while others struggled to adjust to the wet ground. As always, he played smart, often soccering the ball off the ground to gain territory. One blot was an uncharacteristic missed goal in the third term, but finished with a game-high nine clearances.

Shane Edwards
Had four clearances in the opening term as one of Richmond’s best early in the match. Edwards continued to bob up right around the ground and have a number of crucial inside 50s, ending with a game-high 27 disposals.

People will generally list dusty, cotch, rance and jack as the champion players in our premierships but this guy is well and truly their equal. Another epic performance from shedda!

A big game player who never gives up. A true champion.
