    2010 Rate the Season: #25 Ted Richards

    TEDDY!!!!!!
    (One of our favourite things to scream every time he even looks like he's going to touch the ball.)


    Rate away ...
    Wild speculation, unsubstantiated rumours, silly jokes and opposition delight in another's failures is what makes an internet forum fun.
    Blessed are the cracked for they are the ones who let in the light.

    He earned two points for each decent game he played. And I said decent, not excellent, not special. Just a game where he did more good than he did bad.

    I gave him 8 - 7 for being there when we really needed him, ie, most of the season, and 1 for the blog.

    7 - at the start of the season who would have thought that, after a less than stellar start, he would have been holding up the backline in the absence of B2 and the Hyphen. And not just playing defence actually excelling at it.
    +1 for the column.
    +1 for developing his goose-step. He just needs to be able to do it in both directions.


    I realise that Reg was actually our premier key defender but let's not let that ruin the story.

    6. Provided great back-up to the injured key backmen. Played some very good games and played some teddish games.

    Teddish - Effort and courage, intermingled with errors.

    7. Never has a fit of whoosy's when he is dropped, playes twos like its the ones, great attitude (Club Man Award confirms this) and of course 1 point for his blog. He is a darned good player, perhaps not a great one, but couragous and effective. Hug the Teddy Bear.

    Will always be known as "Turnover Ted"

    Pray for the boundary line when he gores near the ball. If it doesn't get there, we're in trouble.

    If no one takes any notice of the stats, why do we have them?

    Stats are only so people like you look at them and think gees... Teddy's having a good year. Whereas if you knew anything about footy, and actually watched the game, you'd recognise him for the clanger merchant he is.

    He only averaged 1.0 clangers a game in 2010. Other key defenders LRT 2.1 Grundy 2.0 CBolts 1.2. Hardly a merchant of clangers if you ask me.

    Is this one of the cases where we don't want facts (or statistics) to ruin a good stereotype?

    I thought Ted had a superb year once he returned to the starting 22. While I wouldn't call him a matchwinner, I honestly struggle to name one bad game he had in 2010. He's just a good, consistant defender, and that gets him a 6.5, bumped to 7 for the blog.

    So he had a better season than Grundy?

    No. But stats aren't everything.
