To me he doesn't look like he is enjoying the game, hard I know when losing but his body language is not good, needs a rest.

I'm more worried that he looks small, slow and unskilled.

He didn't last year.

Worsfold plays Parish on the best opposition mid every week....Half-Step Hardwick hides Ellis in the backline..."development" at Richmond...

Playing him as a half back is not helping his development.

Need to keep getting games into him.
He hasn't been that bad I wouldn't have thought.
Get him to 50 games and he will repay the patience.
Play him across the centre line.
Let's see what he can do.

Play Lennon, play Rioli, play Menadue- get games into them.

Two of the three he did. He is slow and small but he has good skills. Needs to play inside but to do that he needs size.
I am all for playing kids including Corey to a degree, but Corey is one who would be better of spending most of his time in the twos. Imo he does not have the physical attributes to regularly play afl and shine atm.

some times they just have to be developed in the twos, saying that our twos are a grave yard lately. Ahh it is the old roundabout again.

Disagree he looks shot if we had a good development program he would not be playing seniors.
Most of the juniors we have played have struggled, why is that ?.  Giving them needed experience is one thing, flogging them to death is another.

How are we "flogging him to death"
It's footy Claw. Give the kid a run in the middle and free him up. He is never going to be a HBF.
