AFL Player 14: Jordan Ridley - Injured his calf in Round 6

[Beerfish]

Contract Status: Unrestricted Free Agent 2029
My Boy Draft 2024: Pick 3, Dave

 

[Red Black and Blue]

He’s a young Dylan Grimes, so comfortable with ball in hand and decision making is sublime in its simplicity and effectiveness.

 

[Beerfish]

17 disposals at 94% efficiency.

He is my boy. Love his composure.

 

[Stopher]

Runs like Adam McPhee. This isn't an insult btw.

Piss off he is a way better user than Grimes

 

[Zach Package]

Doesn’t have that mangy desperation that Grimes does, also doesn’t duck into everything and lead with his chin.

Reminds me a little of Mackie and a little of Michael Johnson. Somehow plays both shorter and taller than he looks

Grimes is very tidy. He just has to take riskier options atm due to the lack of rebounding options.

Kid has a calm head; makes good decisions under pressure and oozes composure. Needs to stay in the team.

Plays with his head up, which allows him to know what he's going to do next and not rush.

Good decision maker and keeps cool. Excited for what he can achieve this year.

I have no doubt I will read this later in the week.

Out: Ridley

In: Brown.

Brown played in the team with Ridley on the weekend

Feels more like Mackie to me. He's tall but I don't reckon he plays tall and you wouldn't want to play him on a genuine key position player. Great rebounding though. Still could work on his intercept game a bit more though, considering he's often playing on smaller opponents.

Think that's just confidence. He's excellent at that at the level below. Will come with time.

Yep. I don't mind Brown in. My prediction was Ridley out for Brown which would be amazingly horrible.

 

[NAB777]

I'm telling you..this guy will be an All Aus at some point.

And impossible as well.

I get a bit of the left-footed version of Sean Wellman vibes about him too. A cool head, good decision maker and versatile.

It gets better. He's a right footer.

I feel like I see him use his left foot often enough that I genuinely wasn't sure, but correction noted.

Yeah I can understand why. He's fantastic off both legs. Genuinely our most dual sided player.

I haven't been this relaxed when this guy has ball in hand since Caracella. It's like my blood pressure just hits the supra freeze mode.

 

[Seagrave_Holmes]

Could this guy be the tall silky midfielder that we crave?

 

[TheGrizz]

Or we could leave him in defence and not make the mistake we did with Myers.

 

[eDPS]

Ridley is a defender and a fine one at that, his cool head is just what we need down back and he can only improve once he puts on size and can take those talkers players, hasn’t shown his aerial dominance which he showed at 18s level aswell.

 

[EnolaGay]

Any update/confirmation about the rumour he's broken his hand?
