Ryan O'Connor on Double X
* Frustrating year. Up and down. Please they have turned up today.
* Missed Tivs last week. Travelled to Perth last week. Collins getting plenty of the ball as is Cogs and Jackson. Didn't use the breeze well and Rawlings will be talking about that in the rooms.
* Young talent is coming through. Edwards, Moore, etc now playing at Richmond.
* Got to play better footy and use the ball better.
* Club has good depth. Ressies undefeated. Played 21 of the Coburg players so far. Continuity hasn't helped but playing all these players helps with depth in the long run and approaching the finals.
* Rawlings provides an intimate knowledge of Richmond so the young guys know what's expected in the way they play when they are promoted to Richmond.
* Affiliation allows VFL players to put their hand up to be picked up by AFL clubs and for AFL listed players to push for selection.
* A few major sponsor annoucements over the past few months. Facilities is something that needs addressing. Bridging the gap between the elite AFL facilities and the VFL. Of course Richmond got $6.25m for Punt Rd.
3rd quarter has started. Willy point.
38 - 43
