Welcome Chris, sorry about all the bad sh1t I said about you when you were carving us up ;D
Yep I still remember seeing him burn past a couple of richmond players on the wing like they were cardboard cutouts a few years back. Gee I hated seeing that.

Welcome aboard.
 
You better hit jack laces out on chest 70 times inside 50 and score a min 35 goals yourself
Your old club think we paid overs for u and could not wait the arse end of you out the door

His old club have been poor judges for a long time. Maybe they'll use all those picks to draft a forward line.

Ex-Carlton players to outscore the Blues again in 2016.
 
Look people, apologies to big Ivaan, but this is the best player we've had come/move to our club since Nathan Brown. Cheaper is all.
 
Not sure what his off-field issues were at Cartoon and I hope we ave done our due diligence on him, but I am looking forward to him carving up other teams instead of us.
 
More than happy we didn't pay Carlscum's overs for him. Yazz now has a Tigers jumper so all previous Carlscum behaviour is forgiven. Welcome to Tigerland Yazz n Eat Em Alive, especially the Carlscum ones.
 
if he can reproduce his 2013 form then we have done extremely well and he could well be the difference in the result in one or two games - and that my friends is the difference between 5th and 4th

well played tigers and welcome Chris
 
Playing him off HB makes a massive difference for Houli and Ellis who will both be he beneficiaries of the attention he will get if fit and firing.
Also, our style of play out of the backline should work ridiculously well for him personally. Look how much space our release defenders find already and none of them have the wheels this guy has. And one other important thing is we have Rance, who creates more turnovers than anyone else in general play and when he breaks and runs all of a sudden there will be an option not only able to keep up with him but exploding past him. Rance causing a turnover and releasing Yarran through the middle of the ground with the opposing team's defence out of position could become dynamic over the next few years.
 
I really have high hopes for a motivated and refreshed Chris Yarran at Richmond. When you watch his highlights package on the RFC website, you can't help but get excited by his very best football. I just hope he finds some consistency at the Tigers.

Adding Corey Ellis and Chris Yarran to our team next season adds some real class.
 
Welcome Yaz.

I hated him as a Carlton player but that's my right as a Richmond supporter. I also feared him when he played against us because even though he didn't always produce I knew what he could produce. I am looking forward to the good stuff in yellow and black.

It was reported somewhere that he has come to us on less money and broken a contract> he must really want to play for us or he really hates Carlton, hopefully both

Well said Juffa. Yarran adds another dimension to our team that we desperately lack.

Alright, will call it now.

This guy gets to Punt Road:

Name change to Yazzy Days and Collo pic goes for the new gun.

Ready when you are Rosy ;D
 
I know we got him, but its weird - I cant see him in Richmond colors, he's still so Carlton.

Very pleased with the trade though.

Michael Gleeson (realfooty):

Yarran will embarrass and frustrate Carlton next year because he will be good at the Tigers. He is a player of elite ability but has battled with being a good player in a bad team. Put him in a good team and he will be a better player. Thus he was the sort of player Richmond was smart to get and Carlton wise to trade.

In the end, on the Yarran trade the Blues blinked. They got pick 19 after insisting they would only take 12. But something had to give and Richmond was not giving more.

Was saying pretty much the same earlier today to a Hawks supporter. Used Brad Hill as an example as I reckon in a crap team he's look way worse.

Really looking forward to Round 1 and him burning off some Carlton flogs as he runs and runs the lengths of the G.
 
Adds that lovely flexibility of rotating yarren, delidio and houli through both the half back and half forward lines = watch out
 
Welcome to a big club Chris you will be pleasantly surprised to have that tiger winning feeling. Really put in and you will be a fan fav
