How has Deledio's form been?
RICHMOND has weathered a late surge and a five-goal haul from Daniel Bradshaw to win their NAB Challenge match against the Brisbane Lions on the Gold Coast.
The Tigers had secured a 29-point buffer at three-quarter time, only for the Lions to pile on five goals to two to give themselves a chance of stealing the match.
A brilliant running goal from Josh Drummond from outside 50 gave Brisbane the momentum and got them to within eight points with 10 minutes to go.
But the Tigers were able to stem the flow with two steadying goals from Jack Riewoldt and Shane Tuck to ensure a 12.13 (85) to 11.4 (70) win.
The Tigers, fielding a near full-strength team, also celebrated a solid performance from Ben Cousins, who played all four quarters and kicked his first goal in the yellow and black.
The new recruit was swamped by his teammates after snapping through a goal on the run midway through the first quarter.
He finished with 31 touches, one of the best performing Tigers of the night, along with Brett Deledio and Troy Simmonds in the ruck.
Matthew Richardson may have failed to register a goal on the scoreboard, but he had a hand in several others and was prominent all over the ground.
He pulled in a brilliant defensive mark running backwards into the Lions' forward 50 late in the last quarter to stem Brisbane's late surge.
The Tigers lost the final quarter five goals to two, but it was enough to take the spoils.
Veteran Bradshaw was a stand-out for the Lions, finishing with five goals - nearly half his team's total score.
He opened the goalscoring for the night, kicking two of the Lions' three for the first term.
In a low-scoring affair, that was enough to keep pace with the Tigers, who threatened to race away several times in the first half.
They kicked four goals in the second quarter to the Lions' two to set a 16-point lead at halftime, before stretching that to 29 with a quarter to play.
Richmond 3.4 7.6 10.9 12.13 (85)
