He and Ross looked a long way off but worked into it. Keep him in, play him into form.
Yeah I thought that too. Dusty trying to get him involved. What a leader he's become.this. wasn't that far off it. Loved Dusty trying to bring him into the game, and it worked. Confidence improved as the game went on. Mostly just match fitness IMO.
Rioli had 6 tackles last week and got dropped . Couldn’t possibly play Syd next week . Played 2/3 of the game tonight and was completely gone . Fitness and speed are glaring issues at present .Looked short of a gallop for sure but had 7 tackles. A heap more than Rioli has had in recent times.
I'd retain.

Yep I think his lack of fitness after returning from the break has set him back a long way. His touch and everything else will get better as he gets fitter I think.this. wasn't that far off it.

He won’t get fit overnight. Patience.
The strange thing is he was our cleanest player in the wet last year. What would explain his recent fumbliness?
He needs game time, not laps of the oval. Keep him in if possible.Should be dropped but I get a feeling won’t be.
Confidence. Dropping him won’t help that.He won’t get fit overnight. Patience.

Isn't that what I said?I thought Ross got himself into the game in the second half.
You ever though he doesn’t work hard enough at training ? Blowing like a train last night after 5 mins .He won’t get fit overnight. Patience.
