Welcome to Tiger land Riley Collier’Dawkins

Here’s the thing, only had half of Ross’s possies but looks easily a better prospect. Impressive.

Graham had the ball 9 times Baron. Ross 21. Yes Graham's defensive work is better but he only had 3 more tackles. Needs to get more ball

Thought he was one of our best in the first qtr. It's like he already knows how to use his size. Just needs a bit more bulk and a bit more endurance and we will have a serious player

Another year (or two) and he'll be breaking those tackles and either finding a great handball option or hot footing it into space. Dare I say there's a bit of 2010 Dusty in the way he can already wrestle his arms free in a tackle and get a handball away.

He did a few exciting things. His attack on the ball and clean hands were first class.

He was pretty flawless by foot too.

And that's enough to start, certainly didn't look out of place.

Body size, he looked fine. Can compete. Like all mids needs a tank but that's fine.
 
Didn't see alot of RCD yesterday but what i did se is that he does 'Have It'

Both RCD & Ross look like they have the footy smarts to play 200 games and Turner in the VFL apparently looked really good as well

in 3 years time RCD,Naish,Graham,Ross,Turner could all be the main stays of our midfield
 
Couple of little cameos from R2D2. More than likely spend the year in the magoos learning the ropes n growing an engine. Perhaps a couple of senior games, but I'm happy to watch n wait for this kid.
 
Anything apart from VFL games in 2019 is a Bonus with RCD , Ross , Turner , English & Stack

These boys need to be developed both physically and game plan

12 months of development is huge for these boys at their age and whilst we see kids in weaker teams get games like they used to with us

These boys are now having to replace guys like Caddy,Cotchin,Prestia,Martin,Lambert etc

Injuries will be the key to how many games these boys play in 2019

Jack Higgins says hello.

RCD and Ross look every bit as capable as him.

Blokes like Ellis, Graham, MacIntosh, Castagna and Butler are all going to have to be exceptional to keep these kids out.

Think you are underselling Snags here Midsy

Higgins was training like a pro in his Tac year and was the highest scorer ever with the Champion data rankings
Higgo was afl ready

And if they are able play a handful of games like Miles, Cellis, etc did in 2018, we won't feel the loss of depth from the Lynch trade.

We've lost absolutely nothing from 2017/18 and gained Lynch + several young players with a high ceiling.
 
Re: Welcome to Tiger land Riley Collier’Dawkins

What I liked most from RCD was his willingness to take the right option, even when he knew it was going to get him crunched. Dees midfield can play dirty, but he didn't rush and didn't flinch - wait until he sizes up and can throw those boys around

Exactly,we have a serious upgrade to the List,providing depth in the short term & midfield renewal down the track.
The future is certainly looking rosy,remember we still have young Naish to unfurl this year or next,he’ll bring polish.I love the way he cuts back inside at 45 degrees & delivers the ball with precision.He just needs to bulk up & then should be right to go.Maybe wing or half forward flank with the occasional run on the ball.
Happy Days!
