Rivers won the AFL's NAB Rising Star Award in 2004 but has suffered serious injuries in two of the three seasons since. A reliable key defender, Rivers' strengths are his marking, reading of the play and disposal skills. Groin injuries in 2007 meant the Demons were short another key defender, leaving Nathan Carroll to take on the opposition forwards almost on his own.
