Richmond's football department will undertake a broad-based review during the week off of the split round, with Wallace believing the team was, out of its 15 key-performance indicators, ahead in 11 areas but behind in four.

Anyone want to take a guess what some of the 15 are? Make one up if you can't think of one lol.
1. Kicking 16 goals a game - we're averaging 15 so is that one of the ones we're behind in ???
2. Run and carries - Terry mentioned after the game we were going at half the usual rate against the Pies in the first half to 3 quarters.
3. Forget everything you learnt under Spud ;D.

I reckon the number of tackles a game would be a KPI and I think that would be one we are down on at the moment. We are only averaging about 33 tackles a game.
I'd like to see it at around 40-45 per game

I could’ve sworn these must’ve been part of our KPI’s for the first three quarters on the weekend:
Sideways movement of the ball and over possession – this racks up the possession count, don’t worry too much that the ball doesn’t move any closer to our goal.
Stationery players – don’t get numbers at the ball. Under no circumstances go in and support a teammate, instead watch as he is outnumbered 3 to 1 against the opposition. A bloke’s gotta learn how to look after himself and win possession, regardless of the odds.
Don’t lift your eyes and use the middle of the ground – instead, go coast to coast along the boundary – only to hit a snag before reaching the destination. It’s more fun for spectators that way and only adds to the game as a spectacle.
Shhhh – no talking while you’re working, you’ll wake sleeping teammates. This ensures that players learn to develop eyes in the back of their head and won’t get run down from behind in future. They may even learn to develop some awareness of what’s going on around them, without needing a teammate to let him know what’s going on.
Don’t apply any pressure to the opposition and impede their use of the ball. It’s not nice and you wouldn’t like it if it happened to you.
No running on the grass – probably not a KPI, but it must’ve been part of the strategy, because most players stuck to it really well for a long while there.
