They couldn't move in the last five minutes. There were moments when the game was being played in slow motion. And Richmond's older, tougher bodies won out.
Thought our five newbies played well. Wright kicked three goals and while he dropped in and out of the game, I'll take three goals from him anyday.
Phillips rucked very well and did more around the ground in 100 minutes than Warnock did in however many years he was at the club.
Lamb put on great forward pressure even if he didn't get much of the ball.
Weitering was fantastic. Lost his man a couple of times, but was so composed and assured down back.
Kerridge faded in the last quarter. Got plenty of hard ball, and had some great moments, but his kicking wasn't great. Still liked his hard nut play.
Murphy, Simo and Cripps were magnificent. Yes Murph and Cripps struggled in the last, but one is in his third year and the other was under prepared. I adore Cripps.
Everett dropping that mark and Bolt's easy miss were the killers in the end.
