It will be interesting to see what some give Rioli considering George has been much better than him this year..... and last year..... and the year before that.

George would be the first small forward picked every week.

And Georgie’s field kicking is pretty good and I’ll back him over the summer to improve his goal kicking.

Players like George are the reason we can have so many stars like Jack, Cotch, Dusty, Rance, Prestia and Lynch.
Players like George are almost as important as those guys when it comes to being successful and winning Premierships.

Try to remember that when judging guys like George.

10/10 for me.

Kicked two goals in a prelim.

Kicked the best individual goal for Richmond against Fremantle.

Two time premiership star.

One of the bottom 4 players in our team for me. The lack of finishing is just too much for me. I know he does many other things well but chances up foward can  be hard to get so you have to take them, he doesn't.

Hardwick disagrees. There are many things he does that are for the team thst he is instructed to do but go unnoticed by many here. He'll often lead a defender away from the corridor to open up a hole for another player to fall into as part of a foray forward. The whole team does these sacrificial acts which we don't see but result in us having a distinct advantage.  One of the most unselfish teams ever to play the game.
OER. Calling it as it is since 2004.

As l said I know he does many other things well. Would be so much better if he did those things and finished in front of the big sticks as well. As to Hardwick agreeing  or not I don't claim to know but I'm pretty sure he would be happier if Georgie put a few more though.

Agree he can be frustrating at times but he is also unpredictable which makes him a nightmare match up.  He still has time to correct decision making and goal kicking.  If he can fix those things he becomes probably the most dangerous small forward in the game. 

Regardless of any of that he's a 2 time Premiership player at Tigerland so everyone should be praising the guy.

Yeah, he really sucked the life out of our game in the Prelim when he nailed that one from the boundary.

I hope you’re trolling with that ^^

And as per usual you pot shot anyone whose opinion doesn’t agree with yours.

I’d agree that an explanation as to how that rating was arrived at would be good. But it would be much more constructive to ask for an explanation than to have a crack at someone.

Sorry, didn't realise these threads were called "Rate a Tiger's preliminary final"....looking forward to giving BEllis 9/10 if that's the case... :shh

It was a f$&king stupid and disrespectful opinion as was yours but I find you more irrelevant than Dio so I didn’t comment on yours.
And do me a favour, don’t tell me how I should post.... Dio knew I would bite so I did. Nothing to do with you mate.

Our best performing small forward this year and the only one of them not to be dropped.

Biggest positive is that he’s getting more involved in the game now rather than for the most part just confining himself to the forward 50.

Kicked his most goals in a season and improved in every key statistic. Agree with the comment above, it’s these no fuss, team first role players on the low end of the salary cap that both help us execute our game plan and fit in the number of stars we have.

Around 30 goals is very good for a small forward but yes if he could improve the 27.28 to something like 35.20 he would go up another level.
