Seriously, a pleasure to watch. At 3/4 time he had 30 possessions, 3 goals and 10 score involvements (half the teams score involvements). Didn't miss a kick all game. The reason he didn't tackle was because he had the ball all the time.
30 uncontested

hits targets 95% of afl players did pre stand rule era when without a man
 
They have a whole system around him offensively, he's not there to be some defensive beast.

You whack off to player ratings. He had a 37.2, which was 50% better than the next player Vlastuin who played an insane game in his own right and well over double anyone else on the field.
You’re forgetting the multiple flags Dusty and Dimma cost us by letting Dusty play as an offensive weapon and having others cover for him defensively 🤪😳🤣
 
go and follow who you want to. I have been a member for 43 years. then come and see me pea brain.
Yeah good one, straight to the insults when you don’t like what someone says. You gushed over Daicos and I said well follow the Pies and you can watch even more of him.

And for your information I am 66 years old and have been following Richmond since I was 7. Also been a member for many of those years.

Yes mate I love watching good footballers. I wish we had a daicos. we may still with this crop. who knows. as for insults you started it cowboy. I was simply making the point of him being a good footballer. Lets leave the personal stuff out. I am a platinum member. I have followed them since I was 4. I put in big bucks to help us out when we were shaking cans. dont talk to me about loyalty, you have missed the whole point.
 
Look we had incredible pressure during the first half of the 3rd quarter. If we were a little more experienced up the ground, we would of put a bit more of a score on but for us to go up against the top side and put up a performance like that with pressure, I am pretty stoked on that.

It was literally experience that was the difference between the sides. You could see the fumbles the young kids made that their experienced heads didnt. Just need time and growth.

Pretty happy at this time of the year we only lost by 6 goals when Norf got done by 100.

It's the whole idea of the game - to give it off to someone else in better position with the end game being scoring goals :rolleyes:
Did you ever watch a player called Dusty?
A player that just shrugged off physical pressure.

Now don't get me wrong, I think Softcos is a very good player, he plays his game very well. I just don't agree with all the fawning over him. He is possession accumulator. Too many get caught up looking at the stats as the whole indicator of how well a player has done.
He could have had 20 less possessions yesterday and still been just as effective.
 
You would all kill to have Daicos in our team. He's a top 3 player in the league. Anyone that thinks otherwise is delusional.
Daicos was the main difference to us. Him and experience/maturity.

he's brilliant. But with heaps of pressure and a stronger defensive pressure overall it'll be interesting to se how he goes.

Tresize looks miles better on the wing than Ralph. I wouldn’t play Ralph until he learns how to move the ball on quicker. Hes far to slow and predictable
He's not in our best team with everyone fit (which never happens).
 
Trainor is much better suited as a defender than a wingman. When he played down back, he was terrific at intercepting marks and spoiling the ball and just went so hard at it. If he develops as a wingman, and it pays off, then great, although he looks like he has never played there. Only first year of course but I think giving him confidence where he belongs is where he should begin his career.

Our mids are ordinary at best. Especially with Taranto out, it was showing our lack of depth. Ross has lost me a bit this year after 1 or 2 solid games earlier in the year.
Come 2026, I really want to see Lalor/Smillie in the middle owning their position and then one of McAuliffe/Prestia/Taranto/Hopper in the middle with them.

Yup
Draw the contact and with any luck you have drawn the bloke who is meant to be on the bloke you want to handball too so you can work the outnumber

It’s part of our problem at the moment especially for the younger blokes they get drawn to the ball too easily without wanting to hold themselves out for the receive or to pressure that next link in the chain

Although Hotton looks to have that side of things covered
extremely smart player given his experience
