36 hit-outs, four clearances, four tackles, nine disposals

Returned from AFL opportunity, came back and dominated hit-outs, had four clearances himself, but only the nine disposals. We need his big-strong leadership to make other players stand taller.


Now, now, now, c'mon, Batchelor only had 4, the lowest in the entire game against the Hawks, but ask the experts, possessions/disposals mean nothing... :whistle :whistle
DIMMA - You will be held ACCOUNTABLE...

“We are really excited about what we have brought in. We have got great depth of players that can take us where we need to go. We are just putting some cream on the top at the moment,” he said.

Without trying to pump up Jake's game, you sort of expect more possessions from someone who plays on the ball....

Taylor Hunt

25 disposals, 18 uncontested possessions, six marks, 11 handball receives

. His  ability to turn the footy over  is a real standout. We just need him to have better ball use .

the other words were just confusing the issue
“For My thoughts are not your thoughts,
Nor are your ways my ways,” says the Lord.
 
“For as the heavens are higher than the earth,
So are my ways higher than your ways,
And my thoughts than your thoughts."

Yahweh? or the great Clawski?

15 disposals, 11 tackles, nine handball receives, one goal

11 tackles as a forward is good hustle.  If he can make this a consistent feat, this would solve a lot of the problems we have in locking the ball in our forward line.

I want him to play seniors. We must give him a block of games to see what he has to offer. From what I've seen, he has a lot although he must be wondering when he'll ever get a senior game.

Maybe he can play in the back pocket..... :whistle :whistle :whistle

Needs to work on his defensive ga.....oh wait.....oh well, I'm sure we can think of some other reason to keep him out of the side.....meanwhile, let's just give Morris another crack as a defensive forward...#develpoment #therichmondway

Put him at HB so he can work on his defensive pressure. 11 tackles is too much and he has to learn the value of corralling
