Player Watch Welcome to Port Adelaide Joe Richards

[jackag24]

Pretty crazy he's only played 15 games

 

[Portology]

Me to but he is a bit quicker Bucky was a bit plumper than Joe.

first time I've heard the word "plump" used wrt Bucky in any way, who was Cam Hitchcock/Kane Mitchell sized lol

great pickup for us, hope he goes on with it.

 

[Shaucob_Burjan]

Less than 10 possessions and less than 1 goal a game.

Absolutely amazing return for Houston

Absolutely amazing return for Houston

Houston isn't setting the world on fire over there. So that evens things out. Not sure what the less than 10 possessions is referring to considering he has been averaging 15 touches a game playing as a HFF.

I hope he enjoys the VFL.

What ya talking about? He is averaging 15 touches and 0.9 goals a game + a strong defensive side. For his role that’s alright.

No one is arguing or suggesting we won or even broke even on Dan. But time to move on

Richards puts in every week. He's a tidy player in a position where you can get frozen out of games. Genuine first 18.

 

[Rash]

looks just about the only bloke who puts 100% effort and intensity week in week out

Plays a difficult role and does a very solid job

One of the cleanest users of the footy in the side. Really playing well in his role - such an upgrade over players like Narkle and Evans of years past. Wouldn't be surprised if he's in the top 10 of the B&F at the end of the year.

 

[crafty_bernardo]

Just plays to a standard so effortlessly week in week out, meanwhile our developed players just fumble and turnover the ball.

Yeh so not sold. Hes an average player & hes too small.

 

[HugeJohnson]

I think he's been a good addition.

 

[all seeing eye]

I think he's been a good addition.

Agree, has a touch of class, but needs to do more, an extra goal per game and a few extra possies should be the benchmark.

 

[ElectricG]

Better than McEntee / Francis Evans

Better than McEntee / Francis Evans

I would be better then them.

No issue personally with Richards... Could be better. Could be worse.

 

[Long live PAFC]

plays the same role as Mcreary right?

Gets more touches and goals than Beau. More ground balls too. Loses in tackles and pressure acts. Seems to stack up pretty well…

 

[Ford Fairlane]

Last night was the first time he annoyed me for not being clean with the ball early on. But by the end he was really damaging. And that final goal was a peach.

He will have a quarter where he looks like he will be best on by a street then he vanishes. But you do forget he has only played 20 games. Consistency comes with experience.

Dare I say has that he has that ‘comes from a vic team look’ if you get what I mean.
