Those figures backed up what I saw with my own eyes. Not sure what game some on here were watching. Must have had the 2012 replay on their betamaxes.....
OER. Calling it as it is since 2004.

not sure anyone cant see the work now. Issue was was it around consistently in the earlier years.

At the end of the day though wgaf, i certainly dont. The past is the past.

Currently a member of the Roupies, and employed by the great man Roup.

Yep, Edwards inconsistency was well down on the list of reasons why we weren’t winning flags during the Frawley/Wallace era.

Edwards was also in a really crap tigers side for the first 5-6 years of his career

So?

How is that even relevant?
You sound like a disgruntled Cats fan.

He’s a star, accept it and move on

I think you misread my point. I am stating that short of our freakish talent in Cotchin/riewoldt/deledio/ Martin etc in our wallace and Frawley days it was hard for anyone to be developed into a decent player and thrive.

I highly rate sheds and if you have time to burn you will see that I backed him in 2016 when everyone said he sucked and should be traded despite being forced to play with injuries.

I think if you had lived in a cave for the past decade and only resumed watching AFL this year -  you would just assume Shane Edwards was our best player.
He has such creative magic skills that put teammates into space.

 If Richmond are lucky to play off in the grand final again this year - you could do a lot worse than putting a pineapple on Tich to win the Norm Smith.
