[The Nostradamus]

Never potted coops, easily the worst of the lot.

He’d wanna show some of it consistently next year to avoid the chop.
Has had some injuries which gives him some grace but I’ve largely been underwhelmed by him.

 

[My Left Foote]

It's a pretty crowded field to be fair.

Now that TAO has abdicated there's an empty throne waiting for the King of Negativity.

[BRider]

There's actually a bit to work with IMO.

He is hard, can kick with both feet and has great endurance.

[toepoker]

Let's hope he stays long enough to be an Ol' Man River

Maybe but River will be hungrier. I know which attribute I prefer

 

[muttley45]

It is a highlights package and a small sample size, but some nice things in it, clean hands picking up ground balls, good tackling, can kick on his non preferred foot, can kick a goal, can also kick to a team mates advantage, so plenty to work with, go well young man.

It's a pretty crowded field to be fair.

There's a thread in that, for sure. Equally sure we won't be allowed to have one.

 

[ChopChopDigDig]

Get River on a Harley Reid style Hungry Jacks dirty-bulk and we’ll have a player!

 

[Jonnoo]

Lays back a bit with his kicking style, reminiscent of his old man. Hope he has his Dads tenacity.

 

[CURVE]

Congrats River. Great to see another father/son at Arden Street.

I am going to struggle if he becomes a regular fixture in the side, every time I hear his name, that TISM song pops into my head.
