5 min to go there was 5 points in it, but they were more dangerous up forward. Houli with 31 disposals from the backline, drove most of their forward run and set up their forwards.
C'mon man we were slaughtered in the third quarter, and that's what won it for Richmond. After that we were just trying to hang in there and give ourselves a shot. If 20 minutes without a touch in your forward half doesn't count as your midfield being slaughtered then we need to start to redefine terms.
