Player Watch #26 Riley Collier-Dawkins

[Tiges1229]

Good luck to the young man, bit of a cauldron to debut in, but I can’t wait to see what he’s got, very excited for this Friday, even when we win.

EFA

 

[Meteoric Rise]

Good luck Riley.

What a debut to make, three maggots just itching to screw you over every time you go near a doggie player.

I know right. So get full value for every charity free given away. Smash the campaigners.

 

[Grrr]

Most hyped up player to ever play.

Or quite the opposite.

 

[Grrr]

What am I going to do with my tirade speech now.

Must feel pretty good getting a game finally on a really big stage with blokes like Nank, Cotchin, Edwards lining up next to you, not to mention Ross who he has played a lot of VFL with.... of course unless Ross is not selected... queue tirade speech #2.

 

[Muddiemoose]

yeh lets not be those guys. Ten touches will be a good debut, along with some blocks and tackles and team stuff.

Yeah 10 touches with around 5 contested in the middle is what I’m hoping for

We got him to win hard balls so I want to see glimpses of what he can do

 

[Hank Heavenly]

Head to Head with Libba!

And McRae who falls over every possession looking for a free kick.

 

[Grrr]

If we play well I'm sure he'll go okay. Tough gig against the Doggies mids but he will appreciate the open space that players like Edwards put you into. Midfield in the VFL can be very congested as there is a lack of class moving the ball. He has speed, a big factor in the transition from VFL to AFL, Martyn found that out, and he likes the tough stuff. Hope he and Ross rise to the occasion.

 

[SouthernStripes]

Great news! Can’t wait to see what this kid can do. Doesn’t sound like he needs much of it to have an impact. He must be absolutely frothing to get on the park too after such a long wait. Hope he debuts like McIntosh did a few years back

Agreed. I hope he starts in the middle at the first bounce, even if its just for 5 minutes. Unlikely though I suppose

 

[Drunken Wookie]

Got a feeling he'll kill it. Need to give him 2 weeks regardless.

 

[Waca Jr]

In before he has 20 and 3 and is Whankley's Monday Hero on 360. How much we betting some media putlet runs with the RCD angle in a write up? 1.04

 

[Chunky09]

It’s finally time.
Give em hell kid.
Best of luck to RCD, hope he gets a few games crack at it

Most hyped up player to ever play.

I see you one RCD and raise you one McDonagh

 

[smasha]

So excited for RCD.

Hope we get 50k Tigers to Richmond Paddock on Friday.

Doggies fans will be there for sure,their grand final.

Dees fans last week all came out of the cheese cellar.

 

[Tiger_Of_Old]

Good luck RCD,

waiting for him to get 8-12 possessions and become our next whipping boy because he didnt rack up 20 possies and kick 3 goals on debut.

I'd be happy if gets 8-12.

Well we can only hope.

That’s easy coz dimma has always been reluctant to disrupt the winning line up , only forced changes. I can’t understand the edgyiness over this guy , never mind we ve barely lost a game in recent seasons , all players develop at diff rates , Andrew Brayshaw comes to mind he came in playing at the weight of a jumps jockey , but Freo weren’t a b2b premier , that’s what peeps can’t get their head around . How players at GC break in but at Richmond they don’t . Ffs , it can’t be that hard

Just like commentators saying how many number one draft picks haven’t won a premiership ie. pick one isn’t as good as you’d think. What do you expect? They generally go to sh!t clubs.

 

[_RT_]

All I want to see are some good signs that he can play at the level.

Give us 18 disposals 4 marks 3 tackles 2 I50s 3 clearances 6 contested possessions & 16 effective disposals from 81% TOG and that'll do for his first game.

 

[Crumpet_avenger]

I just wanted to be the first to congratulate mad_tiggy911 on RCD getting a game.

I'm happy for you mate. Hope he goes as well as can be expected.

 

[Funky Chicken]

I see you one RCD and raise you one McDonagh

I take your McDonough and raise you a Liam McBean.

 

[rfctigerarmy]

I take your McDonough and raise you a Liam McBean.

Justified

 

[Rubber Hips]

Great news! Can’t wait to see what this kid can do. Doesn’t sound like he needs much of it to have an impact. He must be absolutely frothing to get on the park too after such a long wait. Hope he debuts like McIntosh did a few years back

or like Dean Polo”s debut....

 

[Moppey]

I think dimmas proven to be able to consistently produce winning sides , silly questions like this are fairly knee jerk

IYO of course. imo the way things are going the question is relevant. He seems incapable of making hard decisions on premiership players who are clearly out of form

 

[Disco_Stu]

I've crunched the numbers and all indications are RCD will get 4 brownlow votes on Friday. Staggering, really.
