While I see the point you've made (It's a valid one), there are a few others I think you might have skimmed over.... Last week we smashed the Lions because quite honestly.... We were allowed too. Last week Daisy had 5 minutes of brilliance because he was allowed to. Neither team will get that sort of allowance tomorrow night - However you guys seemed to struggle a little last week against an opposition we smashed without getting out of first gear....
You were only a goal up at the 8-min mark of the last qtr. In contrast, 5 seconds before 3 qtr time we were 47 points up. We could have tried our guts out and won by 70 pts but we didn't have to, while you had to play at your best for a while and they ran out of petrol. You could see that once Richmond got close enough to us to cause a little concern, we turned it on straight away and kicked a goal (through Jolly I believe). So i think if you simply say that we struggled while you smashed them without trying you arent looking at the bigger picture.
