Player Watch #40: Riley Onley – Rookie Draft, Pick 3

[PerfectFooty]

Hulett got hooked on ice bad didnt he? Think someone said he ended up in jail.

I think he did, years later if i recall right he started messaging fans for cash

 

[Toump Ass]

Hulett's captain of the Bonbeach Sharks these days. Can confirm he is big and also old-looking.

He will be a gun, let stop looking at what he can't do and start looking at what he can do,

Yeah I think I saw on one of those Dees fan pages he was selling old jumpers and merch for cash/scamming people and never posting them. Pretty sad.

No defensive game and poor body language? There’s a Christian Petracca sized hole at Melbourne. Give the kid number 5 already.

Sorry for intrusion but these comments are spot on.

I can tell you this kid can be sulky, lacks mental toughness and tends to blame others…..
teammates tended to call him out on a few of these things!

He's got 1 year on minimum money outside the salary cap - I'm sure the club is happy to take the gamble that a professional environment can iron out the psychological kinks. If not, it's hardly an investment anyone will lose sleep over.

Why do you want ever Melbourne player not to make it, only positive comments until he no longer wears the red and the blue

Not all of them, just the ones you like

Settle, Mango.

The man has determination, showed that he can push through and complete his bike ride up the mountain, few other more seasoned players couldn't finish, effort and determination is more important then pure skill.

I know they always say it in the media, but apparently club was absolutely rapt to get Onley, particularly as a mix with the current types we have in the midfield. It's not likely, but also not impossible he could line up round 1.

The choice in the end was between him and NHH, so wouldn't be shocked to see NHH potentially be a train on with us at some stage. Would be a fantastic get for Casey if they would line it up that way to keep a close eye on him.

I have no idea whether he can play, but he’s massive so if he’s any good at all that should help
