CCJ is still 50 games away from being a competitive player who wins you games. He doesn't make enough body contact yet. Chooses bad options etc. I see potential but he's not there yet.

Cumberland should come in this week for George, just a passenger at the moment

parker not playing is the biggest disappointment for me. Not that i rate him or anything else.

You have your season on the line and aarts and george have combined to do sfa as they are both weak as pee. Cotchin getting smahed in the middle.

Then you have a bloke who tackles and has played games and he is left out?

Dimma has made some big mistakes this year and this is one. Why recruit the guy in the first place.

We desperately need a class medium/small forward like a Mason Wood type (just kidding) but seriously like a De Goey, Jamie Elliot as our small forwards are all just dogged defensive types at the moment.  They lack goal kicking class and rarely kick big bags.

We have potentially a legendary small forward in the making in MRJ! But yes our current stock is not cutting it

In the making…….
He’s not progressing as quick as I would’ve thought considering the hype prior to drafting.

He a tackling machine though which is a great start.
The club that keeps giving.

He'll get there eventually I think - maybe not quite to his old man's ridiculously high level but people need to bear in mind that his old man was already 25 with 7 years in the WAFL under his belt when he first arrived at Richmond....  :shh

Yeah I think MRJ is showing enough at the moment.

He has elite speed and is a good tackler.
