Training for DRAFT PICKS!!!!

a triple premiership track watcher whose maybe lost a little of the hunger?

like many, I expect a few more superlatives on the return of royalty.

I wanted an avenue of didges to growl, a driving clapping stick crescendo, and a mr.magically real poem presented on a paperbark pillow of magpie goose feathers

@Tigers of Old laid a stunning pictorial foundation, only for @caesar to staple a flimsy pine word shanty together atop
It's like he doesn't even care.

Watching the highlight reel of Maurice Rioli senior, it was comical to see a plodder like Tony Shaw in the same frame a couple of times........ and it really was just a frame, maybe two frames before Maurice was gone like he just caught a ride in the Tardis.

It gives me an idea for a new Warner Bros cartoon where you take Wylie Coyote out and get Elma Fudd to play the part trying to catch the Road Runner.

Just goes to show though, Tony Shaw for all his plodding is a premiership player, and Maurice for all his silk and briliance on Grand Final day 82' missed out.

To be in the middle of a dynasty and have a crop of young players like that is exciting. I'm not writing off Stack just yet. Naish seems to have dropped off the promising talent list - hoping he can really make a statement this year, which would be his last if he doesn't.
Naishy is currently occupying one of the 3 relegation zone places for mine come season end. Needs a big lift this season does Pat.

Garth and Miller the other two.

The young crop look incredibly fit and AFL ready already. What a time to be a Richmond fan.

Dow looked like a potential A-grader last year, he‘s one who hopefully shows more signs this preseason. Martyn and Ralphsmith sound exciting too.

Would this be Jack Graham’s first full preseason since U16’s (touch wood)? Coming into his 5th year off the back of a sharp performance increase in year 4 following injuries, it would be great if he becomes capable of more than we’ve grown accustomed to.

MRJ looks like a Richmond type already.

Then there’s Bolton/Balta/Baker... I’m not even trying and I can easily pluck out a stack of names with potential.

We might've won 3 of the last 4 Flags, but the media dont see us like that.
Not once has channel 9 shown anything from the kids.
They showed the Geelong kid that hasn't touched a footy in 2 years.
They showed Taylor Adams miss a 15 pass.
They showed the doggies with the plastic buddy.
They interviewed Mitchell at hawthorn.
They even showed Melbourne.
They interviewed Hannebury.

The way the media report on us i'd prefer they ignored us TBH. Where is H.Rimmington these days? Tried to cause a shitstorm but left the scene just as quickly with no accountability whatsoever....
