Pretty sure internally the whole club would be glad and happy to have Rioli back.
They have to put the stern look on for the media and stuff but would be surprised if the club and Willies return is uncomfortable or awkward.
Time to get fit and bring a bit of an edge and excitement to training.
BoooI'm getting 2007 vibes this year. Rioli to play a blinder in rd 23 then ping a hammie in a final against Port.
Being his return game at the gabba in Augaust im guessing it will be wet so Willie goes straight in. If its dry then he would definitly need a warm up before hand.Would you insert Willie straight away? Or warm him up first?
Heard that quite a few players were very disappointed about the airport thing. A few didn't want him back at allI doubt his team mates will judge him harshly for using weed. Trying to smuggle it through an airport however...
Namely Langdon, Ah Chee, Petch and TreacyA few didn't want him back at all
Not who you'd think actuallyNamely Langdon, Ah Chee, Petch and Treacy
I’m genuinely curious about this, namely it’s origins and legitimacyHeard that quite a few players were very disappointed about the airport thing. A few didn't want him back at all
I also wonder, are the players that are upset with this the ones will effectively be in direct competition for a spot?I’m genuinely curious about this, namely it’s origins and legitimacy
Seen this pop up a few times here from various posters but can’t recall seeing it anywhere else
Given that the club is usually pretty good at keeping this sort of stuff in house, I’m wondering whether the some players wanted him out talk was generated online and grown legs or if it’s legit
Flying high again! Rioli all smiles in return to track
A smiling Willie Rioli looked back at home as he joined teammates on the training track for the first time since 2019. SEE THE PICS & VIDEOSthewest.com.au
Some willie picks for your pleasure.
This really should be the bare minimumMoments later, he miraculously marked a ball behind his back - hitting more targets than not in a kicking exercise with his relaxed yet textbook style.
Nelson, Cripps, Gaff, Darling. Trade them all I say

Rioli already baked off his ****
Don't know why Darling would be upset? After all I'm sure he slide down the draft due to his own indiscretions at a camp IIRC.
