It is something of a pity that we don't rate the performance, but that does make things a lot more complicated. I should know. 
[3] Grace Egan: Grace got large numbers today and played probably her best game. Her disposal was generally good, and she really made a significant mark in the centre.
[2] Maddy Prespakis: Not Maddy's best game, as she was closely marked all day. However, she continued to make a contribution, and her 2 goals were nothing short of brilliant.
[1] Darcy Vescio: Totally dominated her opponent and had 6 shots on goal (3 goals 2 behinds). She should have had 5 goals at least. She out-marked her opponents in almost every contest.
Honourable Mentions:
Lucy McEvoy: Much improved over last week. Her work in the clinches was excellent.
Breann Moody: Had a much harder battle in the ruck today than I expected, but really made an impact. Richmond tried 3 or 4 girls against her, with some success, but Moody was excellent around the ground. For that matter, Ali Downie was excellent in her time on the ground.
Jess Hosking: the most effective Hosking on the ground, Jess was wonderful in her effort.
Nicola Stevens: Better hands and not so many fumbles, Stevens was a real target. Very good game.
Charlotte Wilson, Kerryn Harrington and Mua Lalolifi: Our defenders were very ordinary early. Richmond's forwards got too many marks for my tastes, especially early. But all 3 girls really stepped up when required and eventually got on top of their opponents. Their ability to make a contest probably won us the game in the end.
