Wouldnt say woefull. Woefull was what Bradley gave us last week. He has simply been average.

Or woefull is your own judgment when it comes to overating our list
Time to take a bit of a chill pill kelvin or you will be in the mental hospital by round 18

Mentally I should already be hospitalised. I have somehow avoided the system
As for Dyson I never rated him. I never rated Winderlich either but he's sort of proving me wrong.

Well i dont make a habit of rating players too early but i can say i dont rate Dyson now even if i wouldnt describe him as woeful

Well I rate Dyson. If he actually gets game time he will be good. Unfortunately for me Kelvin, Dyson cant prove you wrong from the bench.

Being on the bench doesn't give you excuses for when you get out there

How do midfielders from other sides have an impact coming off the bench but no our Rick cant get into the game when he comes on.

Like Ant said he doesn't have the same impact when he's on the ground as other teams players that come off the bench.
There were a couple of times yesterday where the ball was in vicinity but he stood back and did not apply enough pressure. I was screaming at the TV "Get him, go..run" but he was in la la land watching the game.
When you see all the Hawthorn guys swarm and attack us it gives you a clear indication of what it takes to play league football.

Dyson had 16 touches in 65% game time. if he is played as much as the other mids, he wll be having as much of an impact as they are. OK, he is prone to a few clangers, but at least he is getting the ball. The few mistakes he makes are outweighed by the rest of his disposals IMO. I'd like to know how many scoring assists he had in yesterday's game, coz I reckon he had atleast 2 if not more.

Ricky Dyson- 7 kicks..4 were clangers.. He would want to have more of an impact with those possies..
ur a flipping goose mate - as soon as someone plays bad ur on their back - a typical flipping negative supporter the type we dont need
Hang on. He debuted whilst Mercuri was still playing for us....and hasnt made any progress apart from physically. Why would we hold onto a player for 4 years as midfielder and have him make no impact in our club.

Like i said, he is prone to errors. But what happened with the other kicks? I know atleast one resulted in a score (cant remember what) to C.Johns

I've been on his case for the last 3 years. I don't think it's negative but just honest critical appraisement.
Lets face it he is not good enough and never will be - 4 years is enough time. He is like the Lonie brothers but worse.
I will be astounded if he is there next year even though he is contracted.

It was after the game had died. The fact is when the pressures on he faulters.
I dunno about Dyson anymore.
I remember he and Stanton came into the team at around the same time and back then I actually thought Ricky would be the better player.
I've always been a big wrap for Dyson and really wanted him to succeed but I think he may be running out of time.

It was 2nd quarter actually, when the game was in the balance.
Well I remember one deep in the last.

That pass was in the last qtr - from the opposite side of the ground to where I was sitting into the F50...game had petered out at this stage. The jury is out for me on Dyson.

I'm sure there was one in the 2nd qtr, southern side wing. He drilled it down John's throat. The reason i know the one im thinking of wasnt in the last qtr is because I haven't actually seen the last qtr of the game.
