He seems like an extremely outgoing young fella.

Kid could be anything or could be nothing, as far as his footy goes, but he's certainly a likeable lad.

Go Riak!

Speaks so well for a young man. You can tell he's full of confidence and even a bit cocky. I'm looking forward to watching him grow as a footballer.

He's all of that and quite smart too. Very aware. The way he described how he went about improving his skills was very good.

If he's half as smart as his brother we're in for something. For all Mac's athleticism, his reading of the play, timing and positioing are what make him such a good player.

Also interesting how Mac managed to switch forward and make an immediate impact, albeit after a number of years in the system.
Just saying.

As well as those strengths, what might be Mac’s biggest strength is his competitiveness. You can see that he is desperate to win and it can overflow sometimes into him losing the plot a little.

If Riak can be competitive and smart with his play like his brother, we’re gonna have something. I doubt his potential will be anywhere like Mac’s because of the difference in height - Mac is almost 7 foot whereas Riak is like 6’3” - but I’m very excited to watch him develop.
