Welcome Sam Naismith

We are weak in back up ruck stocks so next Wednesday will be interesting who we take or not as the case may be.
Johnny Ironmonger might have a chance.
Why aren't we talking to Brad Ottens??
His knees are held together with Sticky tape But he is ok.
The AFL must not be going good in the juniors.
Clubs paying 700k for duds like Ratonmygear and Essendon recruiting a bloke that is on the pension.
It's not good.
How bad are the ruckman in the SANFL or WAFL??
This makes sense now The Club is banking its 2024 season on 1 bloke that was cooked in 2022 and the other that can disappear mid game. A typical Richmond list management decision.
we need a ruckman but not Naismith there must be a kid in the WAFL or SANFL
Lycett is cooked but Collingwood are offering him a deal.. if Lycett was any good Port wouldn't have traded 54 picks to get Soldo.
Alert**kids anyone over 6'4 and still under the age of 45 you have a chance to play AFL.
No wonder Essendon offered Philips more coin to stay but he walked so they went to next best option.

Fair point. Are the quality tall Jnrs starting to choose basketball as their chosen & preferred sport?
Maybe this mature basketballer trend has merit given they’ve already cha$ed their NBA dreams & fallen short but still have athletic ability. The Mason Cox situation an example of that…
Then we need to keep turning them over. Hayes-Brown the latest project. Let's keep scouring for the rejects.
Maybe or the AFL are fudging the numbers.
But every weekend every park near me is full of kids playing AFL.
It doesn't make sense.
Looking back this started in the late 80's.
The ordinary Ruckman that could have a 10 yr career in the AFL.
1 thing I've never really worried being a Richmond supporter, we have always found a quality full forward and ruckman. They haven't been our issue. The other 16 position's have been our biggest issue.
We will pluck a ruckman from somewhere.
We need a Justin Charles...

Agree with just about all those names.
Thumbs down on the boy from Woy Woy.
"Razor" Ray Hall was a ripper.
Hard at it.
Just short of 100 games IIRC.
2024 will be the first time in 57 years that we won't have a tall Tassie spearheading our attack!
Sad really!
