Maurice Rioli Jnr

Great for MJ to play well in front of family and friends, he'll be grateful to Syd for 2 of his goals.

I dont understand, this Rioli was meant to be the best Rioli ever but in a comprised draft, he struggled to get picked at pick 50.
What are his weakness??
Why so late, people were saying last year he would go top 10, top 5 etc.
confidence? You can’t gain that if you don’t get to run with the big fellas

NXT game will be Dreamtime unless Dimma shocks us and let’s him have another spell
 
Saw plenty of nice glimpses of poise with ball in hand on Friday Night and with his use.

Was the highlight of the night for me along with the Gibbus.

So how tall is W.Rioli ?

And how do we know this ?
yes we read it on the eagles site that has him listed as 175cm and RFC site has MJ as 179cm
Yeah but I’m listed on Tinder as 6’2” and 75 kgs.

It really is hard to get precise information on the websites and media.
I remember when we drafted RCD and pre draft articles had him ranging anywhere from 188-191cm.
Once drafted, RFC listed him as 191cm but when I asked him personally, he told me he was only 189cm.
Who to believe?

68% TOG against WCE. Got a run in the middle. (Sydders got 83%.)

Young Maurice was awesome. Kms might be an issue this season but he might be worth it anyway.

Still not convinced he's ready for this level. I'm predicting he's dropped next week.
 
Watching him at the VFL a couple of weeks ago (in between stories of Wangaratta Pennant golf) - He has obviously done a power of work on his fitness/physique.

Total body change on it's way from the tubby fella that was drafted. Going to be a fit strong footballer.

The one thing Leysy thinks might hold him back - his inability on his left side by both hand and foot...
