Final Score

Richmond     2.3     6.6     11.7     13.10-88
Port Melb.     0.4     1.9     1.11      4.15-39

Goals: Davidson 4, Pollocks 2, Banks, Gray, Green, Yassine, H.Scott, Collier, McCarthy.


Ordinary first 50 minutes but the rest of the game was an excellent team effort. Go to 6-4 and our % is back over 100.

Still not convinced on Davidson re: all the hype about him being an AFL prospect (can kind of understand some of it though - tall and fast gut runner)- but he can find the goals..though a couple of 50's certainly helped his cause....

[Diocletian]

For me Yassine & Scott look draftable (along with El Nour)

A few blokes I'm less convinced are AFL quality but wouldn't object to giving the last rookie spot to: May, Davidson, George, Collier, Pollocks and maybe Brindley & McCarthy(?)

Garner might also be a handy addition if we lose a lot of experience over the next couple of years - though heard he's not really interested in playing AFL again and wants to get more into coaching & development.

OHB’s first game at that level, nice one

[the claw]

Blight  had a good game again he looks ready to go and he looks a good player. Smith well good again laughable he is not getting games.
Add Bauer those three id like us to play next week.
Trezise i like but another week down won't hurt although id give my right arm to get McIntosh out of the side.
