Don't wanna start a bag the first year player thread, but has anyone seen him use his left? Saw him go with the outside of his right but that's just one kick  :thumbsup

Definitely saw him in the pre season and looked ok
It's that simple Spud

Yep his first game against Freo, under pressure it was too

Summary

* Lids and Jack stood up as leaders against Port with Cotch not there.

* Knew Richmond was one of the bigger clubs when he got drafted. Glad to go anywhere but was wrapped to join the Tigers as he could stay home in Melbourne. Loving every minute of it.

* I think he said Essendon, Collingwood and Geelong didn't speak to him before the draft (as they expected him gone by their pick). Melbourne did speak to him (SEN guy said you dodged a bullet there Nick  ;D).

* Debut - Dimma said you've been doing everything right but couldn't get in ahead of others. He might have debuted earlier but Dimma didn't want him debuting as a sub.

* Favourite position is in the midfield. Got a couple of injuries now so I can squeeze in there now. Needs to earn his spot long-term.

* Had a surge in girl attention since being drafted but hasn't taken notice of it/got time for it.

* Nickname - Routy, Flossy or Tigga. Prefers Tigga as he grew up with it.

* Hangs around with Conca, White and down the beach with Astbury.

* Tucky's nickname is "Horse" because he just keeps on going and working hard.

* One of the SEN's guys said that Brendon Lade told him that Vlastuin is one of the toughest youngsters he's seen come into footy.

All of good character these three. This is why I really hope Astbury makes it. Strikes me as a very leveled headed, intelligent kid whenever I have spoken to him. The more of these types we get into the club the quicker our culture will change for the better.

What I also love about Conca and Tigga is they are both natural ball winners who fear no one. Only know one way to play and will demand those around them to play in the same manner as they gain in experience.

2 lovely left foots kicks just then, but awkward an action but perfect execution  :thumbsup

Reminds me of Michael Voss.
Gut runs, uses the ball well, gets plenty of it runs and carries and when he tackles they stick.
Will be captain after Cotch bookmark it.
