2007 Scorecard - #25 Ted Richards

[Nico]

After his game in the 2006 GF I thought he had arrived. Alas I was sadly disappointed. More below par games than good ones 4.5/10.

[Justice]

5.5/10

I think that Richard's best position is loose in defence where he can fly as third man up.

I agree that he picked up his game after the late call up after being dropped. He also tried hard as a KP back when Barry was injured.

He is responsible for far too many clangers and his kicking for goal, with limited opportunities, was awful.

Cheers

I've grown quite fond of Ted. After the first half of a season with the Swans I thought he might be a little soft but then he suddenly seemed to "get it" and since then he has consistently put his body on the line and his head over the ball. I know it's not relevant to this discussion but his efforts in the 2006 GF, where he made plenty of mistakes but ran himself to an absolute standstill, will remain for a long time.

A few super games this year but others when he was outclassed by his opponent. Probably always going to be on the fringes of the best 22 but, like Kirk, I reckon he always gave everything he possibly could.

6/10

These are sentiments straight from my brain. Especially the 2006 GF. However I am giving him 6.5 out of 10 as there are still some players on the team who simply don't "get it".

[RogueSwan]

5.5/10. As the score reflects, slightly above average.

Teddy is one confused unit, with a confusing head.
He can do the brilliant and then @@@@ something up so badly it leaves you
scratching your head wondering what he is doing out there.
Though I rekon now with 6 years under the belt and now knowing he has played regular footy Teddy is important to us as he can be thrown around to a certain degree. Would love to see him on a wing especially on bigger grounds as a target as he can run and he generally provides good space.Teddy pays it pretty hard as well. At 25 he can be a really solid player now and feel at home with the Swans and I think that will give him some belief.
Wasnt a great year this year, though alot of guys did go backwards.
5/10
