Richie Cole

[Timbo123]

Hey bomber fans

just wondering what the word is on richie

I always rated him as a player (if he could get his head right)

Is he playing reserves, injured????

Cheers

 

[Longy413]

Should be resuming from injury this week.

I hope he goes well in the 2's, he can add a bit to our team

a bit of size maybe.....not much else

He can hit a target can't he? when he's in form at least

When under completely no pressure, yes, he can hit a target pretty well.

He's no write off, but he needs to have a substantial change in attitude, probably like Dane swan has for us this year. There's no doubt he has latent talent.

the one bit of play from richie i'll never forget was in 2003 i think against the kangas when archer had the ball and tried to steam roll him and cole just put the best spear tackle you will ever see on him and the ball jarred free and pies got a goal

Cole is the player we need up and running so we can restructure and find a bit of rebound out of it imo.

I was less than impressed when he turned up over weight pre-season. Needs to wake up and work for his final opportunity to be an AFL player.

He was overweight well before he got to us. He's lost weight since then.

should fit in well at your club then!

haha, nah in all seriousness you guys did well getting him for the pick you did! the kid has talent and will be an awesome player for you guys in years to come. If anyone can set his head straight it will be sheeds and all the other abodigitals at your club! you have done well nuturing them and bringing them through (ie teh lovetts off the rookie list). SOon you may also have egan, he is doing sweet FA for us, he just cant be arsed!

 

[M29]

He didn't want to go to Brisbane, so he didn't stay and went to the club he grew up supporting, you need a ing attitude adjustment, and fast

 

[mcphee_is_a_gun]

Well he's playing today for Bendigo, named on the wing.

It's not his fault you mismanaged your salary cap!

 

[dave_27]

Does anyone else get the feeling that with the likely large turn over of players at the end of the year again and possible retirement or retirements that caracella will be back at Essendon next year?

He's out of contract at the end of the year I think which adds to it and like with heff, sheedy will be looking to bring back abit of essendon experience.

No it was Leigh Brown not Archer and not a spear tackle just a steamroll.

The only thing he ever did at the Pies that caused wonderment.

Wait until you see him get caught holding the ball about 100 times.
