What do you Richie supporters see that we don't.
I'm not trying to be smart, I can't see anything redeeming about him. I can't see him in the best 22 and i'd have had him on the trade table last year.
To say there is nothing redeeming about him is a stupid statement that indicates you either don't really watch or you really do have a personal vendetta against him. This doesn't mean I don't understand where the 'haters' get their ammunition, because some things he does on the field are very sub par.
I don't like everything about the way he plays football, he can seem lazy and not make the most of his natural skills along with the inconsistency. BUT he has skills, a very good pair of hands, pace (which needs to be used more) and he can do the tackle and other hard stuff - but very inconsistently. Apart from the inconsistency bit, I call these redeeming qualities. By the same token, we can't give him a free ride this year - I hope we don't anyway - but RT is not the disgraceful footballer that some are making him out to be.
I reckon if he hadn't fluffed that marking contest last night we wouldn't be having all these slanging matches, there would be a few of the usual rumblings but not the full blown Royal Commission that seems to be taking place. Every footballer has made that mistake at some time or another ... move on everyone
I just reckon everyone should chill out until we have played at least a few premiership matches before the pitchforks and flaming torches are pulled out.
