Talented Richmond playmaker Shane Edwards has given a big tick of approval to the Tigers’ first pick in the 2015 National Draft, Daniel Rioli, who showed some exciting signs in just his second game of AFL football, against Adelaide at Etihad Stadium last Saturday.

Rioli had 12 disposals and kicked two goals in a style that highlighted his potential as a speedy, skilful small forward.

“He’s really impressive,” Edwards told ‘Roar Vision’ post-game.

“He gets to all the right spots and he does a lot of the hard work that no-one really sees . . . 

“I’m glad that he got some reward (on the scoreboard).”
