Player Watch #17: Daniel Rioli - 5 more years! (Contracted until 2027)

[JAKLAUGHING]

Hope his body's ok...ankle and that physical smashing at the start of the year, hasn't slowed him down! It's a long season for such a weedy speedster!

 

[Toadvine]

Any word on his ankle?

Any word on his ankle?

Best game he’s played since the grand final

Seems to thrive in the finals environment hope he gets back for us

The fact he came back and played the game out is a positive and the week off will help

 

[Calcium Man]

Any word on his ankle?

Indigenous blood and week off. He’ll be fine

 

[joelsyt]

Definitely a Rioli.

What is with this Rioli family and going up another few levels in finals?

Was huge, along with Cotchin, Lynch and a couple of others in getting us back into the game in the second quarter.

 

[smasha]

Had a bit of Kevin Bartlett about it,Dan’s crumb ,run and goal from Lynch’s attempted mark,brilliant stuff.

And like KB,thrives on the big stage.

Thought all of our smalls worked into the game after a worrying quiet start . Bolton shone out with some clever work on the wings , Dan too had moments , he looks so dangerous when he takes the game on and backs himself , the kids got wheels , use them , George was lively sec half, kicked a nice goal

 

[darcytiger]

Was having a shocker early, I messaged my mate with a few choice expletives about Dan just after he fell over in the forward pocket. In the next 15 minutes he’d kicked two and nearly 3. Great reverse mozz

Balmey said no doubt for prelim

May have already been mentioned but he has the highest rating improvement for finals in the AFL. ~ 90% IIRC.
Of all of the Tiger highlights that get me pumped, Dan sprinting flat out towards goal is No. 1.

Watch top right of screen for the Bolton shepherd , *en mint

Brilliant shepherd. Gave Dan a bit more time given the bounce fumble.

Brilliant shepherd. Gave Dan a bit more time given the bounce fumble.

I thought Dan fumbled his ball bounce because of watching Bolton's beautiful shepherd for him...

Dusty must be on a commission.

[Tiger Toffee]

Don't see anything wrong with it TBH.

Dusty is still here, Bolton just re-signed. Ralph IMO keeps delivering the goods re players staying at Richmond, yes we may not like the way he goes about it but that's the way Ralph operates and we better get used to it.

 

[joelsyt]

Lol give it a few years and Carr’s whole stable will be playing for Richmond.

Probably wouldn’t be a bad thing if he had the entire list

Would have commission from our entire budget so wouldn’t be trying to squeeze any more out of us

 

[THE_GUN]

Carr : Parasite

 

[Calcium Man]

Been a great influence on Shai and Dusty. Richmond and Carr just scratching each other’s backs.

We get him clients and he keeps them at the club.

 

[Tiger1974]

very underwhelming game. Would hate to see him dropped but gee would be the first atm. Please turn it on next week Daniel.

 

[THE_GUN]

Not his best game but he is a Rioli and just as likely to kick 5 in the GF

His position in the team should not be questioned for a grand final
