Week in, week out: Who is our most dependable player?
« on: January 22, 2023, 04:33:45 PM »
AFL website says Shorty based on his current consecutive 78-game streak.




Jayden Short

The prolific midfielder is on a 78-game streak since breaking back into the side in round 15, 2019 on the way to winning that year's premiership. Short was an emergency in Richmond's drought-breaking 2017 Grand Final triumph – 115 games ago – and since that time his only absence was a 10-game patch in early 2019 when he was sidelined with an elbow injury. Fellow Tiger Liam Baker isn't too far behind Short's consecutive games streak having played 63 straight, and he has only missed one game in the past 74 – back in round three, 2020 – which was due to a family funeral.

Cue The Craw
"The money might have been better. But, at the end of the day, Richmond showed faith in me. It's only fair that now we're 18th on the ladder, I show the faith back in the club and do everything I can to put them in front. In the end, I'm stoked I made the decision to stay. I f***ing love this club”

Nah, something about shirks contests and kicks the ball too high in the air.

Based on last season I’d say d.rioli. After I would probably go broad, short and baker in no particular order. Other players seem to fluctuate more game to game or miss a block of games due to injury and/or suspension. Bolts became a much more consistent player last season and would expect him to do similar this year to join the guys I mentioned above.
