As a cats fan he did break a few cats fans hearts when he was on fire kicking bags of goals he was a great player and an all time great probably one of the best indigenous player as well
Cyril brought a magic to football, he's the best indigenous player of all time in my opinion, that's a big call, but no other indigenous player gave me chills like Cyril did. Thanks junior boy
Sad day not only for hawks fans but all footy fans. Probably the most exciting player I have ever seen, one of the very few players who can be BOG with less than 15 touches. Legend!
What this man has done for his People, for my People, for the game of Aussie rules, and for the human relationship in Australia is nothing short of outstanding. A true legend of the game. A true legend in the company of his People. A true legend of Australia. A real, gentle man. One of the top three all time greatest exponents of the game. Magic. His actions are memorialized in film. His magnificence will be viewed for millennia to come!
His Uncle Maurice (more consistent) was probably better (just my opinion) but Junior Boy, is also my favourite, as much as I love SILK. Me, I am Hawks. Alays sad Junior Boy gets 12-13 good touches HAWKS win!
I'm happy he kept the pen he used to sign my hawthorn jumper in 08 he said I was the first person he saw wearing 33 because of him and he wanted to keep the pen.
One of the three most talented and exciting players I've ever seen. My kids love footy because of him and Buddy. Footy will never be quite the same without the magic of Cyril lighting up the match. Thanks Cyril - you made many people's lives better.
Geez...I've been so lucky. As I watched this package I realised I saw most, almost all, of these highlights in person. What a career Cyril had. So pleased he played for the greatest club in the AFL....you all know which club that is. Hands down, no argument needed....the Mighty Fighting Hawks!!!
cyril rioli has got to be one of the most talented players ive ever seen, he can literally do it all. He can tackle, kick,run everything. He is my inspiration, and he's the reason i started to play footy and i went on to get 3rd b&f in my 2nd year. #THANKYOUCYRIL
I'd be interested to see who you think might have been more talented. I certainly don't remember seeing anyone who fits that description and I've been watching since 1969.
Beautiful ... thank you Cyril for what you gave us all. And thank you too to your family and the whole Rioli Clan for letting us borrow you for a time. You left it all on the field Junior 💘
Only person I don't think I could stick a tackle on in a phone box. Magic feet/moves. Win win. You enjoyed playing in front of us and I luvved watching you.
The day Cyril Rioli retired every other team in the AFL breathed a sigh of relief, even watching these tapes you knew he was a one of a kind champion who brought the magic to the game week in week out.
@@Hehawtyragu It doesn't. Merely showing that I appreciate the player. Not sure about you but I know people who think anyone outside of their team isn't worth mentioning haha. 🙃✌
Cyril at a young age for retirement but I’m gonna miss him even thoe I don’t go for hawthorn but when I seen him play he’s incredible, good and an inspiration thank you Cyril
Thank you so much for an extremely well done video of one of the most incredible stars of this fabulous game. If only the AFL would finally acknowledge that this game was/is greatly influenced by the Aboriginal game of Marngrook it would be such a good thing for us all to help embrace each other.
I do not think I have seen a player go from 0 to top speed in the space of 3 steps like Cyril, no wonder those hammies gave way a few times. Absolute freak.
People keep damning him with faint praise. Why call him one of the greatest indigenous players of all time? Nobody ever refers to Jim Stynes as one of the best Irish players of all time or Leigh Matthews as one of the greatest white players of all time. Cyril was simply the best. Can you think of another player who could compile such a highlight reel? I can't.
i get emotional when Bruce McAvaney commentates over Cyril. "hope this stays in, it does, keep going, oh yes, now it gets really interesting, two bounces and he'll corress it down someone's throat, and he does and they have got six, yep six!"
Yeah that and Cyril takes a special and goes BANG! what player takes a screamer lands on his feet takes of sells the dummy and slames it through! Any other player would of not even considered playing on after a hanger with opposistion right near him but to then sell the dummy greatest Cyril moment for me! That and yours he'll corres it down someone's throat!! Absolute freak! For me most gifted player since gazza snr!! Praise don't get any bigger than that!! 👍
2019 We need u, it's not the same now, I would do anything to watch Cyril What a special man, your retirement made me truly emotional. I just miss your culture that u bring to the squad if the Hawks had Cyril, we would do wonders. Love u Cyril
You can see him play in N.T, only thing is he's in a bombers jumper. He's still young so lets hope he comes back but he's gonna be hard to get back from his family and island life.
Cyril could do things i have never seen another player do in all of my time watching footy. He is not the best player of the 21st centry, but he is by far the most exciting
@Game Geek - I'll just clear this up for you mate. The Riolis are a big family that had all these talented & renowned football brothers but only the 2nd eldest uncle Maurice went all the way. Dean, Cyril & Willie are the sons of 3 of his brothers while Daniels father is Deans brother so he is their nephew & grandson. 🙂👍🏽
WCE FAN45 hahaha you gave it away for Davidoff check out his video where he reacts to the highlights for the game. It was a great win for the Eagles nonetheless.
100,000 views!
Most natural gifted footballer I've ever seen. Just brought a smile to my face watching him.
When he's got the ball....... it's over.
One of the best small forwards to ever play this game. Absolute freak 💯3️⃣3️⃣
As a cats fan he did break a few cats fans hearts when he was on fire kicking bags of goals he was a great player and an all time great probably one of the best indigenous player as well
Even us Collingwood fans will miss this bloke
Leon Davis agreed the amount of times he raped us in those games
Too right Leon!
i think evreyone misses junior
Miss you
@@mufc3316 here again
Cyril brought a magic to football, he's the best indigenous player of all time in my opinion, that's a big call, but no other indigenous player gave me chills like Cyril did. Thanks junior boy
Best player, forget indigenous.
@@ronemerson1620 Exactly.
Eddie betts currently sobbing in the corner
Dark Gaming Channel want to put any more disrespect on Maurice Riolis name?
""but no other indigenous player gave me chills like Cyril did"" Eddie Betts.
God damn I get emotional watching him...still struggling with his retirement, one of the best of all time!
Sad day not only for hawks fans but all footy fans. Probably the most exciting player I have ever seen, one of the very few players who can be BOG with less than 15 touches. Legend!
Remember when he was BOG against Collingwood with 10 touches 5 goals??? Incredible talent.
What this man has done for his People, for my People, for the game of Aussie rules, and for the human relationship in Australia is nothing short of outstanding. A true legend of the game. A true legend in the company of his People. A true legend of Australia. A real, gentle man. One of the top three all time greatest exponents of the game. Magic. His actions are memorialized in film. His magnificence will be viewed for millennia to come!
Cyril has raised the standard for the Rioli family....a Normsmith medal + FOUR Premierships
sadly never seemed to be in the brownlow race
Thanks Cyril
I'm a Geelong supporter but it was truly an honour to see your skills.
Hi
Shame on the people who disliked this
Most talented player I have ever seen. First indigenous player (along with Shawn Burgoyne) to win 4 premierships.
Hasn't Burgoyne got 5?
1 with Port and 3 with the Hawks. He wasn't a part of the 2008 premiership team
His Uncle Maurice (more consistent)
was probably better (just my opinion) but Junior Boy, is also my favourite, as much as I love SILK. Me, I am Hawks. Alays sad Junior Boy gets 12-13 good touches HAWKS win!
Even tho I’m a crows fan still made my day growing up watching him do what he does
We miss you so much Cyril, all the best wherever you are. Champion of the game
Such a legend.
I’ll miss him massively.
I'm happy he kept the pen he used to sign my hawthorn jumper in 08 he said I was the first person he saw wearing 33 because of him and he wanted to keep the pen.
He did things no other player could
Cyril is a Genius.

and everyone who disliked this video is probably a Collingwood supporter who thinks Sidebottoms the better player🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Good onya Jared, keeping playing and we'll see YOU at the MCG in the future.
I'd be interested to see who you think might have been more talented. I certainly don't remember seeing anyone who fits that description and I've been watching since 1969.
Have got a pic with him
The nicest
Funniest
Best at footy
Damn LEGEND
LOVE YOU CYRIL THANKYOU ❤️❤️❤️
Brilliant footballer brilliant commentary Fondest memories forever

I'm one-eyed Collingwood but Cyril is my favourite player... what a fkn champion man. Hawthorn will miss him very badly.
One of my favorite players thanks for the memories Cyril
Beautiful ... thank you Cyril for what you gave us all. And thank you too to your family and the whole Rioli Clan for letting us borrow you for a time. You left it all on the field Junior 💘
God he was always so breathtaking, I'm going to miss seeing him play and I think the team will really miss him.
So many wonderful football moments and memories from this man. Weren’t we lucky to get him at Hawthorn? Every team needs a Rioli. 😃 🦅👍🏿👍
Need u right now round 11 2020 cyril miss ya
Cyril Rioli, always a legend of the game. Sad to see u go.
2008 on the wing. How good was that!!!!
Only person I don't think I could stick a tackle on in a phone box. Magic feet/moves. Win win. You enjoyed playing in front of us and I luvved watching you.
This player is so gifted and a young champion already. Top player. All the best brother. Loved this video. Regards from Bougainville Island. PNG.
The day Cyril Rioli retired every other team in the AFL breathed a sigh of relief, even watching these tapes you knew he was a one of a kind champion who brought the magic to the game week in week out.
My Fav AFL Player Of All Time Too Deadly!!!! No more Cyril n neon leon 😢
One of the best afl players of all time I’m a hawks supporter we will miss him ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️😓
Not a hawks fan but Cyril was good for the game. Shame to see him retire
Why the fuck does it matter who you barrack for?
@@Hehawtyragu It doesn't. Merely showing that I appreciate the player. Not sure about you but I know people who think anyone outside of their team isn't worth mentioning haha. 🙃✌
Jonathan Lenkic yeah that’s pathetic
One of a few hawthorn players I loved to watch and will miss him in the afl
Thank you for this video, I want to cry, such a superstar
Your only 30 come back Cyril. The game on Tiwi last week shows youre still a champ.
From A Hawthorn Fan - Cyril. Thank You.
I miss you Cyril,the memories an joy you gave me and my dad brother thank you
Cyril at a young age for retirement but I’m gonna miss him even thoe I don’t go for hawthorn but when I seen him play he’s incredible, good and an inspiration thank you Cyril

🙂 Davidoff Productions just had to say thankyou for putting this together for Cyril. Much appreciated 👍🏽👍🏽
Cyril is the master artist of AFL. The equivalent of Federer in tennis. I will miss you magic, junior
When I did Auskick he came and I got his signature it was a once in a lifetime opportunity even though I’m Richmond fan
Probably one of the greatest indigenous footballers of all time. Great video

Greatest goal sneak in the game, I'm just in awe.

Deadly and potent!!! A once in a lifetime talent in a once in a lifetime team.

Davidoff production your my favourite UA-camr thank you for loving my comment
Watching this in 2020... miss this guy
I go for hawthorn I boiled my tears out😭
Amazing compilation mate. Thanks for uploading.
One of the greatest aboriginal players of all time
Even with or without the Brownlow he's always better how he was no matter what. #Always #Cyrilrioli #Hawthorn4life
From a 50 yr Hawk, outstanding video brother.
Pure LEGEND
There was a point in his career where iwanted him to retire because he was too good but now that he has i wish the opposite
You are the master of footy and always will be
Thank you Cyil simply amazing !
I’m not a hawks fan but this guy was a gun well miss you
Bloke is an effing weapon. Tackles like his life depends on it
I’m a Essendon supporter but I wish he kept playing
What a highlights real. Thanks Cyril
He brout indigenes colcher into fotty which is fantastic good to see such a legend play this game
Legend. One of my favourites and jumps into the team of the century from 96 with hodge, Mitchell and buddy. The question is who is out
Cyril a legend
Cyril could do things i have never seen another player do in all of my time watching footy. He is not the best player of the 21st centry, but he is by far the most exciting
Best player of all time.
He brought magic for the hawks Rioli
Mate I played against him has a kid and he was fast one of the best I played against from a crows fan
Brilliant video, love it, great job.
Thank You!
Abcyrilutely Brilliant!
NOOOO😢
I just found out that Maurice Rioli is Willie Rioli's uncle. It's good to know the Rioli name will continue playing for years to come.
Dean, Maurice and Cyril are his uncles, and Willie's his cousin.
What are you sorry for?
Look up all the Rioli's that have played, the team that drafted them, and how soon after they won a premiership
@Game Geek - I'll just clear this up for you mate. The Riolis are a big family that had all these talented & renowned football brothers but only the 2nd eldest uncle Maurice went all the way. Dean, Cyril & Willie are the sons of 3 of his brothers while Daniels father is Deans brother so he is their nephew & grandson. 🙂👍🏽
Much respect my star deadly player
Still sad...
What a legend
Win, lose, tie, Hawks till we die.
Great bloke ciril
I’m a die hard Collingwood supporter but man he’s always been my favourite player and i can’t stand the hawks because of my bestmate 😂
with ball on the deck, the best one on one player in the game, ever
Two words. THANK YOU.
Not even a hawthorn supporter, but Cyril Rioli had some sort of talent.
hahahaha as a fellow West Coast fan I know all too well due to how good he was in the 2015 GF...
We just won.
WCE FAN45 hahaha you gave it away for Davidoff check out his video where he reacts to the highlights for the game.
It was a great win for the Eagles nonetheless.
Cyril best
I love Hawthorn
And I even have a talking figure of Rioli
