Fiora's best patch at Richmond coincided with his move to HB in 2004 after being dropped for a long while.....he averaged over 20 a game, and played as an attacking HBF (not good in defence though, neither is Jason btw)...Fiora is better overhead than most think..... I would play Mini as a small fwd...

He was the Worst player on the ground last week by a mile (way ahead of Raph/Frase).....and how he could even look at Hayes, Harvey, Ball after an effort like that I would be amazed....he watched his HBF have shots...

if he had of kicked straight in the last three years we would not be having this argument...... He has had far more shots per game than any of our midfielders by a margin (joey second) his accuracy <35% has killed his effectiveness.....he is a confidence player.........and this would not have helped...
