Dimma today said RCD played his best game for us last week. So it doesn't sound like he will be dropped.

Really? Low metres gained, low number of kicks....could it be he possibly played role he was given. You know inside mid getting the ball out to others (like Short) to kick it long inside 50?

I agree wonders will never cease. He was one i at least tried to keep an eye on and thought he did okay.

The only concern i continue to have is the good inside mids manage to get a whole pile of ball, It has not really happened with Riley.

He did a really bump in the third quarter against the Eagles.

RCD had the most centre bounce attendees of any Richmond player (27)
Does anyone know the stat on how many of the 19 centre clearances he helped orchestrate by feeding the ball to the clearance players ie. Short, Bolton, Prestia, Edwards?

It would be a useful stat like ruck taps to advantage.
The club that keeps giving.

Richmond – Riley Collier-Dawkins 27, Jayden Short 23, Dion Prestia 20, Toby Nankervis 20, Shai Bolton 17, Ivan Soldo 17, Jack Ross 8, Jack Graham 7, Shane Edwards 6, Sydney Stack 3.

Hmm he attended 27 times if that is the case he had just 2 cc and 3 sc for the game the week before didnt register a clearance.
Combined with low disposal numbers 10 the week before and 16 last week with good game time and i can understand why people are asking questions.
It is time for him to show he belongsbut imo that needs to happen with a solid block of games with good game time in the right role.

Well this is a good start to the off season. Hard work does not come naturally to RCD.

It may not come naturally but it doesn't mean he doesn't work hard.

Probably better arguing his work rate to a VFL coach.

Funnily enough, did go over his stats at AFL level recently. Did get a decent amount of ball for the time he was on the ground.

Gotta be real though, he's got very little hope of breaking into our midfield next year. He'd be gone surely?

He is not working hard enough WP. I know this to be true.

Nevertheless, if he retains a list spot he will need to work harder than never before. An interesting watch.

I think he will be traded

IMHO it is in his best interests to be traded

Will be lucky to get a half eaten packet of twisties sadly

That’s our fault for not playing him more often

Few clubs are interested.

Reckon if he's not part of the Hopper/Tarranto trades then you're looking at a late 2nd rounder
