and ppl back riewoldt who is a much better kick than richo
Matthew Richardson: 800 Goals 551 Behinds = 59.2% Conversion rate
Jack Riewoldt: 65 Goals 49 Behinds = 57.0% Conversion rate
Wayne Carey: 727 Goals 457 Behinds = 61.4% Conversion rate
those stats are misleading, dont count all the total misses , OOBOTF etc
and also richos feild kicking
jack has a much better left foot kick and is a much better kick in general play
and i will bet u what u want that by the time jacks career is over he will have a better % strike rate than richo
now im not saying richo was a hack , he was a very good player but not a champion, not elite
another thing, jack is a smarter team player than richo, astburys first goal set up by jacks slap out where he tapped the ball infront of astbury running infront of goal was fantastic, richo would never have done that
there are many upsides to jack, he is a footballer and his kicking will come good
richo missed many goals from the goal square ffs
