Re: Pick 30 - Jake Batchelor

Made some mistakes early but then played very well.

Those 2 key intercept marks he took in a row were very important.
 
Re: Pick 30 - Jake Batchelor

Loved his key spoil in the 3rd qtr and ran on to receive the ball - awesome.
 
Re: Pick 30 - Jake Batchelor

Welcome back Batch. Selection committee got another right.
 
Re: Pick 30 - Jake Batchelor

Ripper. That spoil in the 3rd was some of the best defending I've seen from a Richmond player in a long time

Amen bro. Who will Grimes push out to start? Griff or Ellis? depends on matchups of course
 
Re: Pick 30 - Jake Batchelor

Interesting player. Seems to relish the big games. Yet looks pedestrian in the preseason. Go figure.
 
Re: Pick 30 - Jake Batchelor

I'm just so bloody glad he played like we saw in his first year.

I was worried about him after last season. Looked like a classic one year wonder.

We need him, because he can play on those in between height players. We don't have a lot of options to match up on a Lecras type player.
 
Re: Pick 30 - Jake Batchelor

An that's the Batchelor I know and love. Can seriously play and should keep his spot even if Petterd is fit next week.
 
Re: Pick 30 - Jake Batchelor

yep - he stood up at times tonight - took some great marks, think he might be over the 2nd year blues and he is the sort of player that if he improves, then tigers will have serious depth.

I thought he was in only for tonight and then Grimes would take his spot - not so sure now.

Grimes replaces Griffiths.
