Individual Performance of 25

[Jim Cricket]

Taranto 3 goals and 30 possessions tonight. Also had 5 marks, 4 tackles, 7 clearances, 9 score involvements and 425 metres gained. I wonder how many guys that have kicked 3 goals have given off 15 handballs in the same game? Given forwards are notoriously Hungry I'd say not many.

 

[Fadge]

It should but today was very special and it wasn't against Eagles haha.
Nah you are right but it's top 5 no doubt regardless.

Yeah, it's an interesting one.

North's current team with all their injuries aren't much better than the Eagles, but you're right, I saw most of the game and Heeney was magnificent.

 

[Fadge]

That last quarter of Dangerfield vs us was annoyingly good.

This is a great nomination, and an example of a player doing it against quality opposition, as opposed to the Richmond's, North's, West Coast's and Carlton's of the competition.

I'm sure bont has done it several times, Heeney has 12 hb and 5 goals only yesterday

Yes, great effort from him today. Should look to be a bit more forward at times like he was at GWS. Would take him to the next tier in the next couple of years if he can.

As a single act then Rioli's tackle last night vs the Weagles is just the about the best moment I've seen this season.

 

[Fadge]

Richmond supporters really do need to watch non-Richmond games if they're going to comment on best performances / best acts of the season...

And the smother in a highlights package is as good as it gets for team moral and spirit.

Oppos getting a case of swamp arse.

 

[SSSSSS]

Heeney seems to bob up with a 5 goal 30 disposal game a couple of times a year.

Ablett did it 4 times in 2010.
Every year from 2007-2015 at least once a year.

It was good, but it wasn't quite a 34 disposal, 5 goals and 11 score involvement game.

 

[windyhill]

Voss today surely worth a shout.

 

[PCORF]

Daniel Curtin vs the Bulldogs 2 weeks ago. Brilliant game.
Dangerfield vs Collingwood.
Rioli's tackle vs WC was the tackle of the year.

 

[Fadge]

Regardless of what he does for the rest of this game, the performance of Finn Callaghan must go down as one of the best individual performances of the season.

Playing against an in-form team with their season on the line, he dragged his team back from 6 goals down to run out comfortable winners, setting them up for a tilt at top four, whereas a loss would have meant they were at risk of missing a finals position.

And it's not a performance you'd appreciate by looking at his stats on AFLTables.com.au

These are the types of performances we should be nominating when we're talking about the best individual performances of the season.

Callaghan has done similar against Geelong and Brisbane. When he clicks into action everyone else lifts. Hugely impressive player and I agree, more than the stats sheet often shows.

Consistency is a bit of an issue compared to say Daicos and Butters.

 

[Yellow Feathers]

It’s always Kosi Pickett, isn’t it? You all repeat yourselves.
It’s so annoying. From now on it’s only Nick Daicos every time I say his name. Isaac Heeney

Unlikely Heeney's 34 and 5 game gets topped, although he plays against Essendon next week.

had 21 disposals, 10 clearances, 43 hit outs and 3 goals vs Essendon in round 15. Would have to be top 5.

And Collingwood.

A genuine big game performer.

v the Swans:

1 goal 1 behind, 3 free kicks conceded, 1 late forearm to the opposition star, 1 or 2 to the throat of another, several impersonations of a malfunctioning wrecking ball, 1 fat shaming, and at least 1 social media storm that overshadows a statement game by the league’s most dangerous team.

Nobody impacts like Toby.
