Welcome to Tiger land Riley Collier’Dawkins

Just watched his highlights package from last week, not all that inspiring. Where was the explosion from packs that Clarke the recruiting manager, said he possessed when drafted? He shrugged off two tackles which won't happen on Friday night. There's no leg drive like Shai, Cotch and meatball so he needs more starting sprint work using those ropes with someone running behind him forcing him to DRIVE with those legs not just run on top of the ground. At least his disposal by foot was accurate because he had time to deliver but this Friday he won't be given that time. Feels like it will be a baptism of fire.

Not sure. Can completely understand why it has taken him 3 years to debut. Some woeful defensive efforts.
 
Looks like he is a good inside player.
Not sure about his running defensively but a good first game.

Played a bit of run with. Good way to get to the ball. Imagine he would have been gassed with the difference in pace from VFL to AFL. Plenty to work with.

Like what I saw. Still very raw but you can see what the club saw in him. Has that vital ability to get a handball out when you shouldn’t be able to.

Looked ok & worth another go next week. Didn’t baulk at contests and his inside work was good. Moved better than I thought to. Think there’s something there to work with.
