RICHMOND

Who will be the 'next player picked'?

Richmond's busy trade period saw Anthony Miles, Reece Conca, Corey Ellis, Sam Lloyd and Tyson Stengle exit the club, most of whom went searching for more opportunities. While Conca had established himself in the Tigers' 22, the others were in the pool of players called upon when needed (usually as injury cover, given the remarkably settled line-up). Connor Menadue now has a prime opportunity to establish himself as the "next player picked" and force his way into the team. A speedy versatile runner, Menadue can be on the wing or either flank and has played just 33 senior games.

Others to keep an eye on:

Ivan Soldo's importance to the squad cannot be undersold given he is the only established ruckman on the list aside from Toby Nankervis.

Flanker Oleg Markov's stocks have risen after Corey Ellis' move north, while the raw Noah Balta has excited keen VFL watchers in 2018. The key position player is athletic, aggressive and is developing nicely after 18 VFL games this year. – Sarah Black

Would any one have been really shocked if both Menadue and Markov were axed this yr. It really is make or break for both of them.  Neither have ever been able to come in and play good footy and demand they keep there spot in the seniors.

Dont think either have shown enough and Menadue in particular really needs to find any sort of harder edge to his game.
