Agree - Campaigner-Jones projects as a B grader at absolute best. Save our $ for A graders. We can pay #lolnorf back by taking Simpkin and Thomas when Cotch, Jack and Shedda all depart.

Cant say Jack should have made way for CCJ.
CCj wants to Ruck, he is third in line at Richmond.
This must have been on the cards for a while.
Drafting Sampson Ryan didn't make sense to me at the time, but now it makes perfect sense.
Sampson is much more mobile, and his game is much more suited to modern AFL, 21 in December and has the tools
Meh at CCJ. Have not seen anything to date that warrants a 4 year deal. If he is going to Nth due to the extended year contract then that shows me he is looking for comfort factor. Big red flag for me. If he really believes in his ability he stays at Richmond and forces his way into the team by pushing himself above the others. I don't care how successful a team is. If you are hungry enough as a player you will find a way to force yourself into the side. Some players want the pay packet and security knowing they wont have to push themselves to get some first team football. Seen nothing to date from CCJ that showed desperation and a real willingness to compete.
Back the club on this one. 2 years was more than enough.

He may have clunked the ball at times but he looks another Griffiths to me. Doesnt seem to have the desire to be anything but a B grader. Cannot see him being a star of the competition
correct. He started holding his own in the ruck in his more recent games also. He's young for a ruck / forward. Has great hands and once he gets experience and confidence in his body - he'll be a great contested mark in the fwd line and around the ground. He's very much similar to Benny Gale in many ways.
Also - the predictable flood of posts that follow with the narrative - "he really wasn't that good anyway".
A bit about Talia
Talia started his football career in Greenvale, Victoria, where he also played for his school, Assumption College in Kilmore. In 2009, he was selected by Adelaide with pick No. 13 and made his long-awaited debut in Round 15, 2011. Talia had a breakout year in 2012 and earned the NAB Rising Star award. From there, the ever-reliable defender did not miss a game until 2015. He became an All Australian in 2014 and was named Adelaide’s Club Champion. He added a second All Australian in 2016. The key defender came close to adding a third All Australian feather to his cap in 2019, named in the 40-man extended squad. A deserved fan favourite, Talia was voted Members’ MVP at the 2019 Club Champion night. Talia played his 200th game for Adelaide in 2020. In October 2017, Talia married his partner Megan in the Adelaide Hills and on September 20, 2019, the pair welcomed the safe arrival of baby Ivy Grace.

Moneyball this month, DANIEL TALIA is a strong chance to land a spot at the Tigers.
Some salty posting on here and discrediting CCJ. IMO CCJleaving is a disaster - done the hard yards without the payoff. Jack is close to if not finished, Nank is injury prone, Soldo no guarantee of return to his best, Chol gone, Collina unknown, Ryan a project player at best.
This scenario has lead to discussion about recruiting list cloggers such as Talia, Tarrant and Casboult. Spare me.
Geez I hope there is some promising talls in thedraft this year as structurally we are going to be poor for quite some time.
