Players being linked to Richmond - Rumours

[gerkin greg]

If you mean did someone get their period, yes. It was quite a heavy flow.

I thought Riscky was BOG for Brisbane on the w/e, would love to grab him through the PSD for nicks

Disposal is his biggest concern.  Don't know if we can afford to carry too many more with poor disposal skills.

[gerkin greg]

He was pretty clean on the w/e going at about 80%DE, but i haven't seen enough Brisbane games to know his norm

Thought I would check it out since we were discussing it:

For this season he is averaging 24.5 disposals (12.5 kicks, 12 handballs) @ 71.3% effective, 56.2% effective clearances, 4.9 kicks to advantage, 1.1 kicks direct to an opponent, 1.8 skill errors, 1.7 critical errors.  If you give me the names of a couple of similar players I will do a comparison and we can see how he stacks up.

What's similar? Scott Thompson, James Kelly, Dan Jackson? I dunno.

Yeah, I wasn't sure who would be similar so here's those you mentioned:

Michael Rischitelli - 24.5 disposals (12.5 kicks, 12 handballs) @ 71.3% effective, 56.2% effective clearances, 4.9 kicks to advantage, 1.1 kicks direct to an opponent, 1.8 skill errors, 1.7 critical errors.
Scott Thompson - 25.5 disposals (13.4 kicks, 12.1 handballs) @ 72.2% effective, 61.6% effective clearances, 4.6 kicks to advantage, 1.0 kicks direct to an opponent, 2.0 skill errors, 1.7 critical errors.
James Kelly - 24.5 disposals (11.6 kicks, 12.9 handballs) @ 78.1% effective, 70.9% effective clearances, 5.7 kicks to advantage, 1.3 kicks direct to an opponent, 2.1 skill errors, 2.3 critical errors.
Dan Jackson - 25.5 disposals (13.4 kicks, 12.1 handballs) @ 66.3% effective, 55.1% effective clearances, 2.9 kicks to advantage, 1.3 kicks direct to an opponent, 2.2 skill errors, 2.4 critical errors.

James Kelly stand out in that group - would think that Rischitelli is no better or worse than average on those figures - anyone else got a name of a similar player we can compare him too?

Would be interesting to see how Adam Cooney compares this season considering some are predicting him to be AA.

Ask and ye shall receive tiga!

Adam Cooney - 26.2 disposals (13.4 kicks, 12.8 handballs) @ 70.2% effective, 59.6% effective clearances, 5.8 kicks to advantage, 1.4 kicks direct to an opponent, 2.2 skill errors, 2.0 critical errors.

Hhhmmm, given that I rate Cooney, he's a Brownlow Medallist and All Australian, I have to say that my original perception of Rischitelli as poor by disposal might be a bit off the mark.  He stacks up better than I thought he might.

Upgrade Range Jackson
Trade him for a nice pick and pick up Riscy for free in the PSD

[Willy]

Good to be here fellas.
