Brandon Ellis
- Thread starter Tigermad2005
- Start date
first round draft pick
3 x 22 Under 22 team
best & fairest runner-up
All-Australian squad
two premierships
176 games @ 26yo
Fair to say he has fulfilled his potential at Richmond, even as a classic "role player" in the premiership wins. Hope he succeeds at Gold Coast without giving away too much Tiger intel.

That’s a solid list of achievements for Brando.
Wish him all the best at the Suns.
I could say we owe them a little for the gifts of meatballs and Tommy J but he will always be a tiger

That record is awesome and much better than I realised.
Our depth at the tigers is staggering when you think he has struggled to make best 22 at recent times.
Well done Brando - you have done us proud.
Whatever your future holds Brandon you will forever be a 2 x premiership player for us.
I guess there had to be some fallout for bringing in a player like Lynch on big coin & i guess.
Enjoy the sun up on the coast & know that your time & efforts at the club will never be forgotten.

who would have thought B.Ellis would be on $600k a year when last year he wasn't even in our best 22 against the Pies Prelim
Been a big year. Happy for him to get P.A.I.D

Very resilient for a running machine too; not that easy to find actually. But totally understand why he will have to grab the generous package that GC are offering even if very reluctantly. Really felt for him yesterday - he was making no attempt to hide his love for the brothers and the club. He was just aching with sorrow to have to leave this.
Best wishes Brando. I was really bothered by your performance in the Lions final but redeemed yourself against the Moggies and were ok in the GF. You will always be a Richmond man, twice premiership player, great, honest servant of the club. Best of luck and thanks for your significant contribution to our success in your career time at RFC.
Best and fairest 2nd was amazing. And only just lost it 283 votes to 292 for Cotchin. And a young Dusty came 3rd on 266.
Two-time flag Tiger set to leave as free agent, huge Suns deal looms - http://m.afl.com.au/news/2019-10-02...t-to-leave-as-free-agent-huge-suns-deal-looms
His management pushed for a longer contract. When he made his mind up, the offer was 4 years, $2.5 mil. I'm not sure the figures in this article are correct, as it becomes 5y for $2.75m.
May cost us an end of first round compensation pick.
Agreed Harry - 2x Premiership player and a real success story, thank you for your service Brando!
I know I’m going to be a sour puss and say I’d prefer his medal wasn’t leaving and that stacks or Menadue got his place in Saturday’s team.
But good luck brandy and we’ll played.
I’ll cheer for you at the suns games

In hindsight yes, he was bad Brando in the GF and frankly we could have played Humphrey B Bear and still won comfortably. The reality is he's now pushing towards or bottom 4 or 5 of the 22 (finished 16th in B&F based on votes per game and wasn't selected Round 1) and would likely have been surpassed in the next year or so anyway. The deal he has been offered sets him up for life and he'd be mad not to chase it. Thanks Brando, frustrating to watch but ended with 2 premierships so well done.
For an outside running machine stats compare favourably to a more hyped Tom Scully, recognising TS has had at least one significant injury.
