Showed glimpes last year, didn't go on with it this year. Being born in Jan 86 makes him in some cases 18 months older than the guys he was rucking against so he really should have done better and should have bulked up a little more by now. Too many other good ruck prospects around this year and so will have to try and play his way through the VFL onto a rookie list in the future.

If this pipe cleaner can put some weight on he will be a decent vfl player, if not he will be tapping the ball to R.Castello all day down at Keilor Park footy club trying to save them from relegation.

Another thing to remember is that who knew who Rischitelli before he went to Brisbane. Someone must be watching the Western Jets.

Kinnear Beatson, Brisbanes recruiting manager used to be the regional manager at the Jets when they started I believe.

As if you would draft a player just because ou used to be the regional manager there. Worst thing i have ever heard!!!

Rischitelli is a gun and that's why he was drafted! And he will proove it to evreyone!!

What the ........??????????????

I was answering the comment that 'someone is watching the Western jets closely from Brisbane' posted by legend killer. Nothing to do with that's why they would draft someone.
Of course someone would have a close affinity with a place you came from and you would keep an extra eye on an area because you have closer contacts etc. Didn't say that is the reason you'd draft someone.

Cheers for the info Footymad.

Good to see its still who you know and not what you know.

Have mates of mates who say that could be a chance to be on a plane over West to play for the Freo Dockers. Thats the word from over there though...

I heard this bloke also has a little basketball background and use to play with the likes of Ivan Maric, the Calder Cannons ruckman. ;) ;)
