Typical example of young bloke who gets in the right position to get the pill. If he keeps getting it next year he will be shadowed.

Love to see him groomed for the midfield during preseason. If so should we take the risk and trade Brayshaw / Harmes (still in contract) for a low second round pick in which we could use among our other picks in targeting a key forward or young outside mid?

 

He's a wagon alright!!

"“He never gives up and has an incredible wheel to keep fighting until the end.”"

I’d like to see Rivers stay in his half back role in 2021 or move up to a wing if needed.  He’s got the skills, pace and intensity to make a really good half back and use his rebound to setup play forward of the footy.  Certainly great signs for his future and I’m glad we extended his contract. 


One of the good news stories of the season.

Looked the goods right from his very first quarter of footy V's Carlton.

Pretty impressive for a 7 or 8 gamer to kick the sealer against GWS in the manner he did.

Can't wait to seen him wheeled out next season.

dont even think that...you'll be wishing some rare  career threatening foot or knee injury on him. 


Apart from the ‘wheel’ error is there any chance they could revise where Egan says ‘VFL’ to say scratch matches. There was no VFL and might never be again 

Interesting read and pleased that he is seen as more than just a back flanker and potentially another running mid who has a long penetrating kick. Still eligible for the Risng star next year but then so is Rowell.

Said that in my posts and have no doubt about it.

Just so impressed by his performances this year; he was tenacious, hard-at-it, fast and skillful.
He looked like he believed he belonged out there from his very first match.

Don't think anyone would have batted an eyelid if this was the first handful of games from a first round.

Sorry I left off "Of West Coast"

is that betterer?

:roos:


Im sure someone on here can correct me if im wrong, but it is about time we got a steel 'gun' player (ala Tim Kelly) from the 2nd round.

I agree with this. Give him one more year in Half Back to develop the reading and flow of the game. THen decide on whether he stays there or develops an engine to rotate on the wing / midfield. 

Early impressions are fantastic.   Shows composure and 'football smarts' beyond his years.  Add in his skill set, courage, attitude and appetite for the contest and we. have a great prospect.  Maximise it Dees!

Loveing our Riv's?

I wonder if he had not been ill during last year with glandular fever, would he have gone much earlier in the draft?

This has to be a big tick for Jason Taylor ?

His talents run very deep .

Bit wet behind the ears to start with, but all downstream from here.


Came highly recommended from a friend in WA, who says when the WEagles aren't playing he follows the Dees, because of LJ and Riv. (i believe they both hail from the same WA team...that was really smart recruiting)

  • AFLW REPORT: Richmond

    A glorious sunny afternoon with a typically strong Casey Fields breeze favouring the city end greeted this round four clash of the undefeated Narrm against the winless Tigers. Pre-match, the teams entered the ground through the Deearmy’s inclusive banner—"Narrm Football Weaving Communities Together and then Warumungu/Yawuru woman and Fox Boundary Rider, Megan Waters, gave the official acknowledgement of country. Any concerns that Collingwood’s strategy of last week to discombobulate the Dees would be replicated by Ryan Ferguson and his Tigers evaporated in the second quarter when Richmond failed to use the wind advantage and Narrm scored three unanswered goals.

  • CASEY: Frankston

    The late-season run of Casey wins was broken in their first semifinal against Frankston in a heartbreaking end at Kinetic Stadium on Saturday night that in many respects reflected their entire season. When they were bad, they committed all of the football transgressions, including poor disposal, indiscipline, an inability to exert pressure, and some terrible decision-making, as exemplified by the period in the game when they conceded nine unanswered goals from early in the second quarter until halfway through the third term. You rarely win when you do this.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

    Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

  • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

    Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

  • CASEY: Williamstown

    The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

    Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.
