Sheds made Robbo's "likes":

7. The big five

EXTERNALLY the Tigers have revolved around the big four — Dustin Martin, Trent Cotchin, Jack Riewoldt and Alex Rance. Inside the club it is the big five, the fifth being Shane Edwards. A forward-mid for most of his 236-game career, Edwards switched to a back flank after Rance and Jayden Short were injured. He has become an instant intercept master. Edwards has been in the top three interceptors — and in Richmond’s best — in the past three matches. Against Sydney he had 28 disposals and eight intercept possessions, combined with 410m gained.

He was talked up as being part of the big 5 in 2015 if I recall correctly. I’ve always loved his hands in traffic. Would love to see more magic from Edwards in the back half for this season

Did you used to drive with him to work?
“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.

Another great game last night.

He has been seriously awesome this year and with Vlastuin, Grimes and Stack, the reason we have rebounded so well after Rance went down.

Could have been a great game but I felt he missed too many handball targets.

Shane and Houli's disposal was abit off last night. Both missed targets they would usually hit without problem.

Edwards, effectively deployed in defence for the majority of this season, had 25 disposals, four inside-50s, four clearances, seven score involvements, took five marks, applied four tackles and finished with 473 metres gained in Richmond’s 92-point win.

“We’ve had to use Shane in a different role this year to plug a few holes along the way,” Hardwick said.

“He was the best score-assist player in the AFL last year and we’ve barely played him forward at all (this season), midfield as well.

“So, all of a sudden, he steps back in that role and some good things happen."
