Welcome to the Tigers - Daniel Rioli

The first quarter tonight was probably the best quarter of footy Rioli has played for some time.
Thought he was switched on early but maybe he has sustained an injury that seemed to limit his output.

Started like a house on fire, but then faded badly. Looked proppy. Hopefully we can give him a rest.

I thought he was good tonight. Been building nicely.

Hate when he marks it and doesnt turn around quickly though. Im sure that will be picked up in reviews this week as it kills our momentum.

Agree. To me he seems really reluctant to take the space in front of him. I think it’s got more prominent as the season has gone on. I suspect it’s a consequence of his ankle injuries. He may have lost some confidence in his ability burst at speed from a standing position.

Mmmm. First half terrible. Second half okay.

He's hanging on by a thread.

First half wasn't in it. Second half 10 disposals and made things happen a bit more. Doing a lot better than he was a month ago. Just needs to now pick it up another notch.

I thought it was a better game from him, though he's developed a touch of DLT Dan or doubling back rather than bursting forward when he has the ball.

That 50 was mystifying though.
