Richmond: Matthew Richardson. Few players carry the hopes of their entire team on their shoulders in the way that Richo has to, coupled with the expectations of success-starved supporters. The back injury to Ottens only adds to the pressure. Unstoppable at his best, but his body is suspect to injury. Is very much a confidence player and when his confidence is low, his accuracy suffers. Has too many attributes to be restricted to the goal-square and often moves out to half-forward. 70 goals would be a huge return, given his recent history.
