Mykelti Lefau once kicked 25 goals in a game and was part of a Melbourne Storm development squad. Now he’s trying out for Richmond’s AFL list, writes PAUL AMY.

Snip.

Enough with the baiting

It's gone on far too long in multiple threads

Next one will be an automatic strike whether that be a 1st, 2nd or 3rd strike which means a permanent ban

WAFL forward Mitch Schofield has been seen as a frontrunner at Richmond for its sole list spot, with VFL Tiger Mykelti Lefau also competing for a shot with the AFL team.

Decision on Monday - practice match on Sunday to serve as the tiebreaker you'd imagine... personally hope Grimes does the right thing and pulls the pin so they both get a gig...:shh

You would reckon Lefau has got the nod. Didn't do his chances any harm when he came on. Got the turnover goal and bonus points for putting Lever on his backside  :lol which lead to Bolton's 4th goal.

Surel the Kiwi gets the nod. Did some nice things when he came on in the last. Looks very strong.

Lefau getting a run in the main game might be a fair clue.... :shh

Interesting situation as Lefau is an athletic beast who hits hard. His hit on Lever was pure and rattled Lever who didn't want to remonstrate at all. Mitch looks like a country champion, an old fashioned player. That said, he knows how to play forward.

Lefau for me out of the two.

Could end up being our Polynesian Georgie….
