This is also the only request I'll be doing as I'm going away without internet until about Tuesday.

I do have really poor phone internet but it's not enough to do any research with. However, I do recall from my initial that JPK didn't really smash the Giants in either game last year. The only Swans to do well were McVeigh and ROK in the second game. I also recall that there tended to be less huge scores against the Giants than expected last year as they were somewhat competitive. I reckon he'll score around the 105-115 mark.
Note: what I recall may not be quite right as I have no notes on me.

no idea of the numbers, but i'm pretty sure JPK was BOG in round 1 last year. i only remember because he was really awkward in his post match interview on the ground. then when he was named BOG, he had to give another speech and he didn't know what to say.. "it was a tough.. tough.. tough game" or something along those lines. mates and i had a good laugh ;D

LaHug

Yeah, but he didn't kill it DTwise which is what matters. Take Thursday's game for example. Lids was probably BOG but only scored 70ish.

pommyadam

for the record, JPK only got 94 DT points in rd1 last year

thanks for the write up LaHug,
think i'll be sticking with the ceiling of Gaj though, rather than consistency of Jelwood

yeah agree, JPK isn't really suited to DT. wasn't sure of the numbers, can just remember his speech ;D

hahahaha Lids didn't play well mate

Everything he did was damaging. Did you see the game? He was also named as Richmond's best in the Age (iirc).

Lids got 17 touches and 3goals, but did not touch the ball in the last quarter went they needed players to stand. Best on ground my arse.

LaHug

The entire Richmond team was shower in the 4th. Personally, I think Gibbs was right up there as BOG but Lids was the most important to the victory. We can, of course, agree to disagree.

Justin Bieber

At least touch the ball in the last.
