Good to see Richie Cole back on the field. Did he come back against North? I saw him get a few touches vs Brisbane and it did my heart good to see him playing again.

I was sorry he left the Pies, but if his heart wasn't in it then good luck and goodbye. Hopefully he turns it around for you guys.

He's a very gutsy skilled player, just has trouble with concentration. If he's overcome that then you have a solid skilled defender on your hands. I always loved the way he tackled fellas, they sure stayed tackled. I reckon he has it in him to move into the midfield as a hard hitter: he waits a little too long to get rid of it sometimes (just takes that extra step) but that could be ironed out.
 
He looks to me like he lacks a bit of confidence, but vs Bris he took the game on a few times and did reasonably well. He's going to have some pressure for his spot but with a couple games in the seniors behind him now I'm hoping he starts to feel like he belongs because there is definate ability there.
 
Cautiously await his game against Richmond...not convinced yet.

He's no mug.

Came 5th or 6th in the Copeland when the Pies made the GF.

Was definitely worth the punt based on that form. Let's hope he can get back there.
 
Played around 50 games, played in grand finals, still fairly young. Worth the punt for sure.

Watched him in 2 games for Bendigo and then seniors. Impressed with his efforts and work rate. If he can maintain a senior spot for 4 or 5 weeks I am sure we will see some really good football.

You can't remember "them" that well.

He only played in one.

I classify each of the following as a 'perfomance'.

Getting under 10 possessions
Shitting yourself when the heat is on x2

Last night, he cost us two goals from **** ups and shit himself in the first quarter against Pedifer of all players.

7 more games and he's oooooot of this club.
