Half Year Report [2nd Half]

[rfctigerarmy]

Duncan Kellaway Injurys again caused him to have an interrupted season. First game against Cartlon on the weekend and only got one handball then get injured again. Last year of footy IMO. 1/10

Clinton King Has too work hard to get a game now with Johnson, Blumfield and Fleming now in the Richmond squad. Struggles to get 10 possies a game. 3/10

Andrew Krakouer Still developing. Goal sneak up forward. Has his on and off days. 14 goals up forward. An Average of 8 or 9 possies a game. 6/10

Martin McGrath Still yet to play a senior game of AFL. One of Richmonds long-term players.-

Andrew Mills Hasnt played a senior game this year. 4th year at the club. Maybe still has a future at the club.-

Chris Newman Stepping up in the Richmond Line up and always gets a game. Used in defence but might be used in the midfield later on in his career. Usually gets 10+ possessions. One of the big improvers this year.7/10

Bill Nicholls Got a bit of game time for Richmond and showed what he is capable of. Injurys troubled Nicholls towards the end of the half way break. Still could get a few games. 2/10

Brad Ottens Back surgery ment that Brad would struggle this year. May never get to his best or what could have been his best. Looked a bit flat against Carlton.4/10

Kayne Pettifer Really has to lift if he wants to stay a Tiger. Has potential except doesnt use it. Gets a game now and then but hard for him to string them together. He needs to contribute more than the occasional cameo. 5/10

Matthew Richardson I dont even know if there has been a season in which Richo has taken part in every game. Always seems to get injured. Kicking for goal hasnt really improved much either. 17 goals in 9 games for big Richo. Captained the side against Carlton.7/10

David Rodan Stocky and fast, he is a ferocious tackler who makes things happen. The fans love him but sometimes may over use the ball eg: taking too many bounces and getting cought. 12 goals this year for D-Rod.6.5/10

Matthew Rogers His job is tagging and he does it very old. Getting to the end of his career but still has a good 10+ possies every game. Played every game this year for Richmond. 6/10

Jay Schulz Should have had 3 or 4 games under his belt in my eyes except he has only been given one game. Tall player who can play CHF, CHB. Only has had 1 tackle in AFL so I can only give him a 1/10

Daniel Sipthorp Dont know much about Daniel but: Selected with the Tigers' third pick, No. 62 overall, in last year's National AFL Draft, the former Calder Cannon is a medium-sized runner who is equally at home in attack or defence, as he showed when he represented Victoria Metro at the 2002 National AFL Under-18 Championships. Attacks the ball hard and is solid overhead. (Richmondfc.com.au)

Greg StaffordGreg has been brilliant. One of the Tigers best. Missed only one game against West Coast and it lost us the game. Strong and great overhead. 6th on the hitout list with 194 hitouts. 9/10

Greg Tivendale Has stepped up this year. Played every game for Richmond with 10 goals. Full of run and never gives up trying. 20+ possies a game on most occasions. 9/10

Royce Vardy Cant keep a spot in the side. Aside of that this is one man who doesnt give up. Against West Coast was one of his best games on his career. Can go up forward to kick goals and also down back. 5/10

Ty Zantuck Like Newman. Very courageous and good by foot. Lately has been picking up a good 12+ possies a game. Strong and solid player.7.5/10


Thanks for Reading my Half season Report. I just put in what I really feel. Go the Tigers!

Admirable effort at both halves of your report rfc ... but maybe you'e going easy on a few players.

eg. Nicholls, King and Bidderscombe getting 4/10

Also, I don't really see what future Andrew Mills has at Tigerland if he can't crack a senior game within the context of our current spate of injuries. I think he's history.

Kane Johnson getting 9/10 is also very easy on him ... hasn't done a thing since April.

Hilton and Pettifer getting 5/10 each ? Maybe a TOTAL of five between them ...

and also he gets the number one tag week in week out now.

Well rfc, I do retract that for the Essendon game early in May ... he was in our best handful that day.

His best game was undoubtedly the Hawks game ... but that was April

Very ordinary against Port.

Was not in our best five against the D's.

Most of his 25 possies v West Coast were of poor quality.

Was thrashed against Sydney.

I only saw the second half of the North game ... he did very little.

Missing versus Carlton

9/10 ?!?

I'll give him a 7/10 cause I'm feeling generous.

kane johnson

Note his production dropped off just as Cambo went down. A midfield of Campbell, Johnson, Coughlan, Bowden, Tivendale with perhaps Rodan and Krak having short stints in there would challenge most midfields in the comp

 

[tigerT]

too right, never let it be said how ineffectual cambo is


sugar has been fantastic for us, did u see the difference without him on sat ghost? not a 9/10 b/c he has been ineffectual in a handful of games, but certainly in our top5 players to-date, the break will do him wonders, certainly expect him to feature heavily in the 2nd half of the season

 

[Tiger_Of_Old]

Tim Fleming Debut season has been fantastic I feel. He missed the first 2 games but tries his hardest. Very good by foot. Recruited by Richmond to add midfield depth and has done that. Off-the-bench type.5/10
very good by foot? by richmond standards yes.he adds toughness but he isnt going to set the world on fire.

great summary otherwise RFC.

cheers!

campbo

had cambo not been selected against the wce ...chances are he'd have been right for the Nth and Carlton games. Therefore we'd have won them both.
