Even when we were winning flags we weren't that well representated

It's Robbo, so he briefly considered the top 10 in between hangovers and put down 40 other names he remembered. He probably spent 99% of his time debating Petracca/Bont.

I haven't read today's HUN yet will do tonight

But in fairness to Robbo, he has had a tendency in the past to not include players who have long term injuries which I reckon Dusty would qualify as having

I know this time last year he didn't include Buddy because he hadn't played for nearly 12 months

Well I've read it no explanation of why there is no Dusty. Just that a number of big names missed out

Blah, blah, blah

You guys do realise that his end of year lists are based on performances during the season right?

I’m not gonna argue who should and shouldn’t be included from other clubs or the exact order but in terms of Richmond players, I think we are lucky to have even grimes included. We were that bad this season and maybe it’s because I rate him so highly but I also thought grimes had an avg year.

I'm not surprised - very ordinary year by Richmond.
