Tasmanian Seth Campbell has been picked up by the Tigers as a rookie.
He can play all over the ground but performed best as a half-forward.
-
SNAPSHOT: “A clever and crafty forward who works opponents over up the ground, and hurts them on the way back to goal.”
A late addition to the National Combine list, Seth Campbell has been made to prove himself in 2022. The Burnie native emerged as one to watch after Tasmania’s Under 17 clash with Queensland last year, and quickly became a key cog in the Devils’ mid-forward rotation as a top-ager.
Campbell averaged 19 touches, 4.7 inside 50s and over a goal per his 13 NAB League games this season, earning Allies selection and even breaking through for a senior TSL berth with North Launceston. It was there where he produced arguably his standout performance, booting 10.6 from 32 disposals to leap firmly onto the draft radar.

Campbell joins Richmond via rookie draft
Richmond has used its first selection in the 2022 rookie draft (No. 12 overall) to recruit Tasmania Devils high forward/midfielder Seth Campbell.
Recruited from: Tasmanian Devils
Position: High forward/midfielder
Height: 182cm
Weight: 73kg
DOB: 29/12/2004
What the Richmond recruiters say about Campbell...
"Seth originally played his football with the Burnie Football Club before playing senior football with North Launceston in 2022.
"He was a strong contributor for his Tasmania U18 NAB League side, playing 13 games this year as a running midfielder and averaging 19 disposals while kicking 16 goals. His form was rewarded with selection into the Allies U18 team where he played three matches, his best game coming against South Australia where he recorded 15 disposals and two goals.
"He also managed 10.6 from 32 disposals at senior level in just his third league game for North Launceston earlier this year.
"We like his footy smarts, running strength and ball use. He has class with his feet while also seeing the game well to get into dangerous positions in the flow of play. He is a dangerous goalkicker."

Again not really sure this is what we needed, although the club maintains we draft on talent only.
We have a surplus of mids now with Taranto and Hopper coming in.
Cumberland, MRJ, Bolton our first in small forwards. Clarke and Castagna in the magoos.
Good luck to him but meh, still leaves me feeling exposed about our KPF stocks.

another small another safe bet who may get senior games but will be nothing special.

‘Family bleeds yellow and black’: Tassie draftee ready for Tiger Land
Up until this week he’d clashed with his family over their support of Richmond, but this Tassie AFL draftee says he’ll have no issues joining the Tiger Train as he begins his dream AFL career.
https://www.themercury.com.au/sport/he-bled-red-black-and-white-but-now-campbell-is-ready-to-join-the-bandwagon-at-punt-rd/news-story/3d01bdcfef6c2eac344e3ad7e4162813

Tassie Devils coach Jeromey Webberley believes Seth Campbell is an ideal fit for Richmond, who secured the services of the talented, young forward via the AFL’s rookie draft earlier this week.
Campbell produced a string of impressive performances for the Tassie Devils in the NAB League competition throughout the 2022 season.
Webberley, who played 16 senior games with Richmond from 2010-12, envisages the 17-year-old eventually having a significant impact at Tigerland.
“Seth is an exciting prospect,” Webberley told The Mercury newspaper.
“He’s small (182cm, 73kg), but he’s got really good leg speed and endurance and loves a goal . . . he kicked 10.6 in a state league game against North Hobart.
“His last two years have been outstanding in the Devils program. This year he had some awesome games.
“He’s going to provide a lot of excitement for Richmond in their forward half. He’s a real Richmond type player with that leg speed and defensive pressure, and a really nice finisher.
“I’m really excited about what Seth is going to deliver at Richmond.”

It was in just his third game of senior football with Tasmanian club North Launceston that Seth Campbell produced one of the best-ever performances by a young player in the TSL competition.
Playing against North Hobart at North Hobart Oval late in the 2022 home-and-away season, the clever forward, who has been likened to veteran Hawthorn star Luke Breust, racked up 32 disposals and kicked 10 goals (10.6).

Of our newbies, Seth was the one that stood out today for mine. Seemed to work hard off the ball to run to the right spots to create options and with the ball finished off well kicking a couple of goals.
-
Off to hospital with that lower leg/ankle injury :(.
-
Poor bastard's cursed.... :facepalm
-
To go straight to hospital you'd think it might be broken
-
another small another safe bet who may get senior games but will be nothing special.
If i could id like to retract that statement. Ive watched him as best i can and done a bit of digging since that post.
Yes he is a small and as such as a late pick a likely safe bet but i keep going back to some glimpses here and there and i think he has a fair bit to offer. You see Some things and they just stick in the mind if people can get that.
-
Took notice of small fwd #SethCampbell's fine 3rd place finish in the recent 2km time trial. The 19yr old livewire was showing plenty at the start of last season before his untimely injury. Seems past his issues now & has put in the work. Can't wait to see his game unleashed.

If we are serious he should be starting in the fwd half and the aim should be he plays all year unless form warrants otherwise.

All the best to Seth in his debut on the weekend :clapping.

Know jack poo about him and wouldn’t pretend otherwise
But one thing is obvious , he’s well liked by his teammates
And off that footage, he seems like such a great young kid, with a lovely family
Good luck young fella , do the jumper proud
-
Really happy for this bloke :clapping
Battled some tough injuries last year, his first in the system.
Showed some strong qualities in the fee VFL games I watched
Congrats Seth
-
Looks good
-
The only (albeit very small) positive so far.
-
Well done Wayne.
Well deserved. Hard work and has a crack. Has some really nice qualities.
-
Him, MRJ & Vlastuin are about the only three that haven't totally embarrassed themselves so far..... :shh

-
Very good 1st up performance
Deserves a run of games
-
this boy showed many how to get the job done.
along with TT seth had the most tackles with 4. Seth had more tackles than grimes, young, ross, macca and baker. floss so basically our whole backline :banghead
-
Was very good
-
Was talking to a bloke from Burnie at the pub yesterday. Let’s just say, Seth did not have an easy private school pathway into footy. Had to work super hard. Sounds like a great kid.

Campbell’s fine first-up display
By Richmond Media
2 days ago
Talented, young forward Seth Campbell made an impressive debut for Richmond in last Saturday’s opening round match against Gold Coast with two top-class goals. Richmond Media caught up with him post-game for an appraisal of his debut appearance. Here is what he had to say . . .
His first goal in AFL football, from a clever snap
“I just played with instinct and the ball ended up in my lap. I was in a good position and just snapped it over the shoulder . . . Seeing it going through, I didn’t know what to do. I didn’t know how to celebrate . . . The boys just got around me and it was unbelievable.”
Strong support from Tiger teammates
“They supported me. Every time I got the ball or with my rotations or playing my structure, the boys helped me with everything like that, and they made it easier for me.”
His second goal, from a set shot
“That was awesome. That was us on the comeback and we had the momentum and it just felt awesome with the Tiger Army getting behind us.”
Easing the nerves
“It was after I kicked that first goal, everything just dropped, and I was just playing footy like I’ve been doing.
Thriving on the quick tempo
“It was very fast. I didn’t really realise how much I was running because the adrenalin was just going the whole game. But it was awesome . . . amazing. I loved every minute of it.”

Disagree. Kicked a huge goal in the last when Mansell, Lynch, Bolton miss goals they should kick. May not have one every contest but he has a crack this kid. Loved his spoil that resulted in Balta goal in the 2nd.
-
Was still well down on last week - to be expected - no big deal at this stage.... :shh
-
Just keep playing him. Needs and deserves a run of games.
So much to like

Could be the cleanest player on the list. His hands are so sticky and I am yet to see him double grab. Class.
-
Seems like Seth, mrj, Cumberland, coulthard are all competing for the same spot. Would expect different combinations of the 4 throughout the year. Campbell has impressed me though
-
Looks to have great balance and footy nous and most importantly he doesn't panic.
Skills aren't the worst in the team but many of our more experienced players could learn a thing or two watching his second and third efforts. I really like his pressure on the ball carrier and he isn't scared to take the game on and show his ability. :thumbsup

Beat me to it was looking for this thread when it popped up.
Reckon we have found one with him and i think he should be groomed to also be a part of midfield rotations.
-
Another excellent effort today.
-
After three games of AFL football, Campbell is averaging 12.0 disposals, 5.3 contested possessions, 2.7 marks, 1.0 goal, 4.3 score involvements, 2.7 inside-50s, 2.3 tackles and 269.7 metres gained per match.
Among potential AFL rising star nominees, he is ranked No. 3 for goals per game, No. 5 for metres gained per game, No. 6 for score involvements per game, No. 6 for tackles inside 50 per game, No. 7 for marks inside 50 per game, No. 8 for inside-50s per game, No. 8 for clearances per game and No. 10 for contested possessions per game.

Equal most inside 50s for us with 8.
Seth's game today:

2 marks
1 tackle
8 inside 50s
2 intercepts
416 metres gained
3 score involvements
1 goal assist
1 behind

They just have to keep playing this kid
What find he has been
-
Another real solid performance i think he could play mid field for us as well.
-
Is perfect where he is. Looked great and opportunities to make a huge mark on this game but snuffed a couple of relatively easy shots on goal
-
A find
-
Seth Campbell has forced his way into Richmond’s senior side in 2024.
The Tasmanian small forward battled injuries last year which restricted him to just five VFL games and as a rookie draft selection, not many expected him to come on so quickly.
After five games, the 19-year-old is third at the club for inside 50s with 19, has provided four goal assists (equal third with Dustin Martin), and is equal seventh for score involvements with 19.

YOUNG TIGER EYES TRIGGER
RICHMOND rookie Seth Campbell will trigger a contract extension after the Tigers' early-season bye.
The 19-year-old was limited to just five VFL games in his first season at Punt Road due to injury and only secured an extension in September.
But after a strong pre-season, new Richmond coach Adem Yze rewarded him with a debut and has played the Tasmanian across the first six games of the 2024 season.
Campbell kicked two games against Gold Coast in Opening Round and has shown he can handle the intensity at AFL level since then, rewarding the club’s faith in him last year.
Seth Campbell snaps through his first goal at AFL level to give his side a much-needed major late in the second term
Richmond is expected to rework an extension in the coming weeks for Campbell and reward the small forward with a two-year deal.
Tigers GMs Blair Hartley and Tim Livingstone have a number of list management decisions to make this year on a wide range of premiership players.
Dustin Martin, Dion Prestia, Dylan Grimes, Toby Nankervis, Kamdyn McIntosh and Jack Graham are all out of contract.
Unlike the names above, Liam Baker is not a free agent but is out of contract and is weighing up his future.
While those decisions will take time, Campbell's early-season rise has taken care of one piece of list management for Richmond. – Josh Gabelich

Na would be a very good mid why pencil him in as only a forward when he could be so much more.
If i thought he had the tank, atm id be wanting him to play on a wing instead of the two ancient has beens we keep picking there.

Getting back to the form he showed on debut.... :shh

Was right in front of us. Never missing from the time he hit it. Great goal!

How did Dan Rioli go just playing Forward. Unlike Dan this kid has traits to play as a genuine mid rather than a hbf.

His best game yesterday. He seemed to be the only one capable of hitting a target inside 50 and a few nice kicks into the corridor too. Crazy that this kid can do it but all short can do is bomb it long.
-
I wish he could get a bit more of it!
-
I wish he could get a bit more of it!
Is still only 19 and plays in the grave yard spot of small forward.
Kid will be fine and he will get enough ball.
Will reiterate he looks like he could play midfield with ease. If he has the tank and thats the question does he have the tank? i would be playing him for the rest of the year on a wing.
-
I wish he could get a bit more of it!
Can't get more of it of you not where the ball is
Seeing his playing as a HF he is getting it enough
Looking forward to seeing im spending more time in the middle as his career progresses
-
Give him a wing this week. Why the hell not.
Mrj, Mansell and Bolton small forwards. Bauer, Blight and Kossie the talls.
-
Staggering he hasn't received a "Ris9ng Star" nomination
Been solid all season

Staggering he hasn't received a "Ris9ng Star" nomination
Been solid all season
Can't agree with this. Had 4 or 5 good games a few near or at the standard and a whole pile of very quite games.
He was that quite earlier in the year that we rightly gave him a rest under the guise of rest or some such thing.
Leading into the Port game he probably should have been dropped again.
If i was going to be highly critical of him id say the lack of consistency and ability to stay in games is one of the bigger ones. But hey we all realise he is still only 19 and this happens.
This will probably be interpreted as me bashing one of our young players and that is not true. He shows a lot of promise and looks good in areas but he has a long way to go.
Not sure apart from 4 or so games he would be thought of for Rising star. And no he has not been solid all year.

We can agree to disagree. They're just stats and tell a story but they don't tell you what happened with the stat.
Please don't speak to me like that as well. It's bloody rude and I deserve to be treated with more respect. I give plenty of respect to people on this forum myself.

SNIP and edit
I've made it clear in the last couple of weeks
Any posts that directly snipe, insult, bait and troll other posters will be removed and/or edited.
There's no need for it...
Great point made above
We can agree to disagree, there's no need for the petty insults
And before people start complaining, there are at least 2 posts where I made it clear why we were making this change
-
..I am going to make this very clear :banghead
A post has been removed because it contained another insult; just like the post I removed and edited this morning.
Posters can stand by their opinions, that's not the point. You can stand by an opinion without belittling other posters by insulting them by calling them "morons" or as in the recently removed post "stuffing precious".
Just on a fortnight ago the mods on this site in particular me were accused by a poster of favouring other posters when it came to baiting, trolling and insults
At that time I made it clear going forward I would be removing any posts that baiting, trolling and insults
Below is part of what I wrote:
"Finally, constant baiting and trolling is against site rules. But get your point so today I will remove every single post that could be deemed as baiting and trolling..OK?
And as I've said before, be careful with what you wish for"
I also said that if people had an issue they could take it up with the poster who made the accusation of favouring posters.
So since then I stayed true to my word and removed a number of posts
SO again rather taking a pot shot at me, take it up with the poster whose accustions instigated the changes

Says play the kids then writes an essay about how none of them have the consistency of Harley Reid
Pfffttt Really.
Im all for playing kids knowing they will struggle at times and a lot of the time maybe not up to the standard. Fmd that is a given yet i say play em. Why is that.
why sugar coat this situation play em but why talk about them as being something more than they are.
Why do we have to build em when they have not done a lot.
Nope i dont need em to be winning undeserved rising star nominations to keep playing them. Nope im happy to play em warts and all because that is where we are at.
When will supporters learn to not build players up to something they are not only to tear them down when they don't meet expectations. FMD it happens all the time.

I actually agree with your assessment of SC.
Good skills, footy nous, strong shoulders etc.
And is a kid, needs to develop and be more consistent.
That's exactly how I'd describe him.
But on the topic of Rising Star I don't think it's a stretch to imagine that one of his better games this year could have earned a nomination.

You forgot to read WP's post :lol
But I agree with most of that. It's just that you advocate playing the kids and then jump on here and say "well they haven't done anything yet!!!".
It's the pre 2017 Clawski cycle all over again. You call for kids to play and then a few years later you call for them to be delisted. You are literally never content as a supporter and it's just bloody miserable.

Who is the poster? If you're referring to me I hope you have some evidence to back up your claims. I did rightly point out that you'd removed a harmless post of mine and let a lot of abuse slide from others. Given I wasn't actually baiting anyone with my post nor have I been involved in a slanging match with anyone here for a long time, I thought you were being unfair.
I mean, you only have to read a certain part of clawski's post to see he's abused someone for the 687th time this year because they have a slight disagreement with him. It's just not consistent across the board.
But hey, if my words to you are now inspiring rule changes then just add me to the moderating team. I'll fix this place right up :shh

Yep i apologise have deleted that comment.
I pretty much do it with all of our kids. Rarely call for their heads in their first three or four seasons unless they show themselves to be out right duds.
But i do point out their foibles and what they need to improve on.
Wp said he had a real consistent year and deserved a rising star because of it. I disagreed i dont think he has played to a consistently high standard and its something he needs to work on.
Has he played a game or two to warrant a rising star nom? maybe but that depends on how well others have gone those weeks.
-
That’s fair crawski. Would say he looks like he has enough attributes to make it. Consistency is the key.

Fair. i have been fair right thru this thread apart from the first post which was more a crack at the club and its drafting than Seth.
I retracted that comment after watching a bit of him. Had a debate with you about where we should play him and have only been positive until the WP post.
Funny as soon as you say something that can be construed as a criticism and a negative people only see the negative and jump up and down.

Seth Campbell has signed on at Richmond until the end of 2026
https://www.richmondfc.com.au/news/1635444/campbell-commits
The 19-year-old made his debut in the Opening Round against the Gold Coast and has been a mainstay for the season, playing 20 games.
The Tasmanian, who missed most of his debut season in 2023 with adductor and leg issues, has averaged 11 disposals and two tackles per game.
Campbell’s endurance, strong decision-making, and foot skills make him suited for a wing and half-forward role, though he has also had some exposure through the midfield this year.
The youngster said he had loved his time at Richmond and was excited to see what the future would bring.
“I have definitely played more games than I thought I was going to, but with the injuries and everything that has happened, it has become an opportunity for us young boys,” he said.
“I feel like a few of us have stepped up and played our role the best we can and had our opportunity, which has been really good.
“There is definitely a lot of young talent at the moment at Tigerland, and I think we are just getting better and better.
“I think over the next couple of years, we are just going to keep growing and we will be really competitive.”
Richmond General Manager, Football Talent Blair Hartley said Campbell had taken huge strides in 2024.
“After an injury-interrupted first year with us, Seth has taken his opportunities with both hands this season,” Hartley said.
“To play essentially a full season of AFL football this year will hold Seth in great shape in the future as he learns physically and mentally the demands of elite football.
“Seth is a talented kid with a great work ethic, so it will be exciting to see what he can achieve across the coming years.”

When's Tassie coming in again? :shh

Think a few people blew their loads early over this bloke - he's actually not that good....fumbly, panicky, poor decision maker, makes a lot of unforced errors...another who can't tackle and lacks physical presence... :shh

No, you've got it wrong.
He's all of those things, just tired at the end of the year, carrying more than a kid his age should.

C leary I'm tired haha.
He is the opposite of those things (bar that kick to Hopper).
I thinmk his physicality is great for a kid.
just tired ad d beat by the end of the year

B or C+ grader
-
Had a stinker yesterday.
-
He's had quite a few stinkers. Very young still.
-
Yep was poor yesterday but don't think there would many on here who'd of thought he would play 20 odd games in just his 2nd year on the list. Remembering that he missed most of last year with injury
Plenty of upside, reckon he is a future winger
One of few bright lights in a horrific year
-
Other players who played yesterday deserve far greater criticism than Thompson. For example Hopper who played a really poor game.

-
Opinion is divided on this guy it seems. I myself believe he just does not get enough of the ball.
Hope I'm wrong, just don't see him being a long term player, even though his skills are excellent
-
I think as he develops he can find more of the ball.
Least of our concerns
-
Come on people he's 19 ffs.
Rookie drafted.
Missed lots of 2023 with juvenile injuries.
Played 20 games averaging 11+ touches, 0.5 goals and 2 tackles.
Far from our top 20 problems.

This.
Crazy criticism.
-
Had a good year as far as games played goes. Also showed a lot of good glimpses. A 19 yo rookie pick with some good attributes for the level im not sure what peoples expectations were but he showed more than enough.
Legit criticism he needs to find more of the ball. Its not a put down its just an area he needs to work on and improve significantly.
Needs to work on size and strength needs to lay more tackles and be more involved with out the ball.
Hopefully he builds on 2024 next year.
They all have things that need work.

20 today :birthday
Looking forward to how he progresses in 2025.

Moving magnets: The positional change to watch at Richmond
A rookie pick at the end of 2022, Seth Campbell made an impression playing mostly forward for the Tigers last year, kicking 10 goals in 21 games. But the 20-year-old has already been given some more responsibility this pre-season, spending time training with the midfield group in what could be a sign of things to come.

Massively overrated #onehitwonder :shh

Come on Dio, it's a praccy match haha.
Kids has shown plenty and I think he'll do better in '25 with another preseason under his belt and when we get some mature bodies back in around him.

Seth on SEN: [11 min interview]
AUDIO: https://cms.megaphone.fm/channel/NTETP9385767300?selected=NTETP8928579035
---------------------------------------------------------
Tigers head over heels for Seth
Sam Lonergan tipped this . . .
When the Richmond development coach presented young Tiger Seth Campbell with the Cosgrove-Jenkins award, as the Club’s best first year player at last year’s Jack Dyer Medal presentation night, he declared: “This young man is going to provide us with many highlights, I can assure you of that. He’s going to be a highlights package of energy and excitement. And he’s got great work ethic, dedication, along with great spirit . . . He’s going to be a long-term player and a key part of our future.”
Campbell’s scorching run and match-sealing soccered goal for the Tigers in last Thursday night’s Round 1 victory over Carlton at the MCG, followed by a spectacular celebration – a cartwheel and backflip – was an energetic, exciting highlights package of the highest order. And it sent the Tiger Army into raptures.
“I joked before the game that the right time I’d do the backflip . . . We spoke about it last year, but there wasn’t really a scenario to pull the backflip out . . . I thought that was the right place and time,” Campbell said on SEN.
“I’ve been doing back flips since I was a kid, but never really pulled it out in games . . . I was a bit up and about . . . I was pumped. So, I just pulled it out. Thought it was the right time.”
So, would he do it again?
“If there’s 80,000 at the ‘G, and it’s a scenario like that, probably yeah,” he replied.
Aside from the now famous match-sealing goal and dazzling gymnastics display, the talented forward was a valuable contributor throughout the match for Richmond with another goal and seven tackles.

‘SHINING LIGHT’ FOR TIGERS IN ‘UGLY’ UNRAVELLING
Seth Campbell kicked three goals from five scoring shots and looked the Tigers’ most likely offensive threat all afternoon.
Campbell’s liveliness around the sticks gave St Kilda early headaches as the Tigers went toe-to-toe with the hosts.
“The willingness of Richmond’s youngsters to compete has been super impressive,” Demons great Garry Lyon told the Fox Footy broadcast at half-time.
Campbell would’ve had a fourth if not reversed after a score review revealed slight contact with the post, but his impact wasn’t lost on observers.
“I love his finishing … there’s a shining light for the Tigers, he’s managed to be competitive,” Dunstall said of the 20-year-old’s efforts.

Only bright light of true consistency for the 1st three rounds

Yep he is a keeper.
Until Tassie comes knocking which they will

Finally starting to back up the debut and maybe live up to all the hype - or at least some of it. :shh

‘I used to be a show-off:’ The story behind Richmond young gun’s somersaults
Andrew Wu
The Age
4 April 2025
Richmond’s somersault man Seth Campbell was not always this exuberant.
In his first year at the club, he didn’t say a word. As one of the last players through the door at Punt Road at the end of 2022, the rookie-listed Campbell thought it was best to keep a low profile around the champions of the club.
“It was frightening coming into a club that’s done so much under a coach like Dimma [Damien Hardwick] that’s got that big record, one of the best coaches there is,” Campbell said.
“Just having Dustin [Martin], Jack Riewoldt, Trent Cotchin – I came into the club a bit shy. It’s so hard to come in and be so confident around guys who have done so much in the game.”
The changing of the guard, as painful as it has been for the Tigers faithful, has helped Campbell find his voice. He’s gone from being as quiet as a church mouse to becoming a self-described “pest around the club” who celebrates match-winning goals with somersaults and backflips in front of 80,000 fans.
“I bring a lot of energy, and that’s what I pride myself on,” Campbell said.
The football world might know him best for his acrobatics in round one against Carlton, but there’s more to the boy from Burnie than that. He can also play a bit.
In the misery of last year, Campbell was a shining light for the Tigers, playing in 21 games and winning the club’s best first-year player award. Seven goals from three games so far this year has him on top of Richmond’s goal-kicking list. Yes, it’s a small sample size, but Tigers fans just want to see promise.
Campbell has taken the path less travelled on his way to the big time. His story shows the value of perseverance and self-belief.
In 2022, Campbell was on a building site when his NAB League coach at the Tassie Devils, Jeromey Webberley (who played 16 games for Richmond between 2010 and 2012), informed him he had not been invited to the draft combine. The news flattened Campbell.
“I want to play footy, so I was thinking to myself, ‘What am I going to do now? Footy’s done,’” Campbell recalled.
The next day, Webberley had better news for him: clubs wanted to see him. Campbell’s time of 2.98 seconds for the 20-metre sprint and a top-10 finish in the two-kilometre time trial showed he had the rare mix of speed and endurance that recruiters look for.
“I was up and about because if I knew I could get to the draft combine I could show my traits and show what I’m good at,” Campbell said. “I’m a pretty good runner. I could show what I’m good at.”
Campbell’s was not one of the 59 names read out in the national draft, but Richmond had seen enough to take him with pick No.10 in the rookie draft. Two days later, he was on the mainland crashing at Tim Taranto’s place.
Being drafted at the age of 17 brought its own hurdles. Taranto needed a working with children check to take him in. At the club’s Christmas break-up, he left early “because I couldn’t drink”. New to his P-plates, he’d never driven alone in Burnie and now had to navigate unfamiliar streets in Melbourne traffic.
“I was rattled,” Campbell said.
Osteitis pubis struck in January, and he couldn’t run. His 2023 season consisted of one half of footy. Campbell took up Pilates to strengthen his groins. He’d never heard of Pilates before. He now visits a personal trainer twice a week (including before games) who helps him stretch.
“I had no idea what a reformer machine was,” Campbell said. “We did it in a heat room. What I was getting out of it, it triggered little muscles that I wouldn’t even know existed. I feel, if I put time into them little things, good results will come.
“It’s shown me this year if I can get my body right I can play at the highest level.”
Campbell seems to have a natural nose for goals. He booted 54 one year while at primary school, and another half-ton in under-14s. As a 17-year-old against men, he bagged 10 for North Launceston in Tasmania’s state league.
One of his teammates that day was Lachie Cowan, the Carlton defender whom Campbell overhauled inside 50 for his memorable goal. Cowan and Campbell are good friends, having spent hours carpooling around the island state to get to training and games.
Amid the headlines and hoopla, there were moments when Campbell wondered if he had celebrated too hard at his mate’s expense. Cowan, he said, seems to have taken it alright, though the Blue would prefer someone else to be the fall guy.
“I felt a bit bad,” Campbell said. “He sent me a message other day. He said, ‘Can you do something crazy just to get this backflip out? I’m sick of seeing me when you do it’.”
Like his appetite for goals, somersaulting has been in Campbell’s repertoire since he was a child, even though he was not formally trained in gymnastics as it did not suit his “free-for-all” style. He’d do them off park benches at school. He even showcased his work to Instagram, though Campbell does not want you to find the account. An accident in grade 6 briefly tempered his enthusiasm.
“I used to be a show-off,” Campbell said. “I remember once on a school camp in grade 6, I’d done a double backflip in the air off the trampoline, come down and smacked my knee on my head. That’s when I stopped doing it for a bit.”
It’s now saved for special occasions – and not just limited to the climax of big games in front of 80,000-plus at the MCG. To the amusement of his teammates, he pulled it out on a summer fishing trip when he caught his first fish just as everyone was packing up to leave.
As for the next time he will produce the backflip? Maybe the next time he kicks the winning goal.
“I don’t think it will come out too much,” Campbell said. “Unless there’s a time like that.”

It was a fair question
And I reckon the people on this forum that know me wouldn’t back your views on me one iota
As for Campbell
He’s having a dip and shows a bit
But personally I think he’s a level below a gun .. and that’s my opinion and I’m allowed to have it
I’d put 10+ players ahead of him on the gun or potential gun list .. again, my opinion, and I’m allowed to have it
Even if ----s like you get hurt about it

Definitely in the gun category for me. At least on this years for so far.
-
Reckon he’ll get even better when our midfield improves and the forward line gets better service.
-
Definitely a good player now and has improved immensely after an over-hyped one game wonder season but nowhere near gun status yet. May get there may not. Will be a solid B grader at worst. :shh

Word for word

Some of us saw his potential in '24.
Happy with his form regardless, but wouldn't say I'm overly surprised.
If he keeps this up I'd say he's in the gun category.
-
I reckon Seth is going really well. Has a way to go but is looking likely. He's very good around the goals, reads it well & is also good on a set shot (great tumbler too). I like having Campbell & Mansell working in tandem in the forward half, matching up with Lynch, Armstrong & Bauer . Steely Green has done well too, so where does that leave Maurice? At present in the twos, but I'd like to see Maurice tried in the middle or even as a small defender.
All good problems to have ...
Tigers 2.0 is in progress ...

Don't see MRJ making it tbh.
Don't think it's a good idea to contract Lynch beyond 2024 based off form seen so far, unless that's turns around.
Suspect the forward line will be Armstrong, Lefau, one of Faull/Sims, then probably Campbell + Smith + Green.

I think every year we have Lynch at the club whilst these young forwards are developing is beneficial. He brings expereince, leadership and will cop the best forward.

I think every year we have Lynch at the club whilst these young forwards are developing is beneficial. He brings expereince, leadership and will cop the best forward.
Yeah I'm mindful of cutting him too early as we've seen some other clubs do. He'd obviously need to take a huge pay cut for starters. I'd just like to see a bit more from him. Atm he's on track for about a 20-25 goal season if he doesn't get injured.

I reckon Seth is going really well. Has a way to go but is looking likely. He's very good around the goals, reads it well & is also good on a set shot (great tumbler too). I like having Campbell & Mansell working in tandem in the forward half, matching up with Lynch, Armstrong & Bauer . Steely Green has done well too, so where does that leave Maurice? At present in the twos, but I'd like to see Maurice tried in the middle or even as a small defender.
All good problems to have ...
Tigers 2.0 is in progress ...
Don't see MRJ making it tbh.

Wow
That’s a bit negative about MRJ
Not good at all
We should all be holding hands and singing Kumbaya

Lynch having a stinker in front of goals. Crickets.
In fact not a lot I'm happy to be watching tonight.

Not barracking for him to fail
And other people keep bringing up my opinion
NOT ME
I genuinely don’t mind him
Think he can play a role in a premiership side
-
Man this whole Campbell running commentary every week because someone called him a gun is getting out of hand lol
-
freakin great game again he at least played with intensity unlike shatama pantsama Short.
-
Can someone put that into layman’s terms , I think it say I hate Short and love Campbell no matter what?

Richmond's 2025 biggest riser: Seth Campbell — #245 in 2024 to #48 in 2025 (+197 change)
A revelation for the Tigers under Adem Yze in the forward line, Campbell influences just as much with his defensive pressure as with his nous around the sticks — his 19.0 pressure acts per game are considered elite for a general forward. Further, the 20-year-old has improved his scoring output from last year, posting 1.6 goals per game thus far in 2025, which is up from 0.5 last season.

-
Bit of bamboo, string and a cork.
We've got a pop-gun here!
-
19 touches and two goals.
Not bad for a young small forward.
-
Had a really good year. He’s going to be a ripper I reckon
-
He needs to focus on being a team player
One of his goals was a bit selfish (being kind)
Definitely tracking well though (especially considering where he was drafted) and his value for the Tassie team rises weekly .. ditto Banks
-
He's a mug lair who'll win us a few games but cost us a few as well. :shh
-
I wouldn't change anything plays with flair and white line fever like some said will win us games .

Flair I’ll give you for sure. Got plenty of that.
But white line fever? :lol :lol :lol :lol
Yeah, he’s as intimidating as a box full of kittens
Let’s not pop him in the John Worsfold class just yet for those with “white line fever”

Seth Campbell (Richmond)
Jon Ralph says: “High-pressure forward, kicks goals – all those things are exactly what you want to pay for. He’s got 2026, he’s got leverage with Tasmania. I’d imagine he’d wait until the end of the season, but if you’re Blair Hartley, lock him away and Rhyan Mansell away- all of a sudden the mosquito fleet that they had under Jack Riewoldt is developing again.”

ps. Campbell had 30 pressure acts on the weekend.
-
Almost a gun.
I would be keen to lock him in.
Not as concerned about Mansell, MRJ, Green etc but admittedly Mansell's two goals on the weekend were good.

After the pre season hype, Mansell has been hugely disappointing. Needed that game on Sunday but seriously needs to back it up

Tigers’ burning question: Have they quietly found an absolute gem up forward?
There’s a top-20 AFL player at Richmond who most fans wouldn’t know much about at all, and his name is Seth Campbell. He’s been a massive riser in Champion Data’s player ratings, going from the 245th-rated player last year to no.19 year in one of the league’s starkest ascents. A high impact-per-possession player, the 20-year-old is averaging 12.7 disposals, 1.6 goals, 2.7 tackles and 2.1 inside-50s per game this season — including two goals and six tackles from an equal-career high 19 possessions against West Coast last Sunday. “He’s having a fantastic season,” Jordan Lewis said On the Couch. “He was a great rookie pick (in 2022) — 21 games last year, 10 goals. Nine games this year, 14 goals. He’s having a fantastic season; really good to watch.”

I'm a Seth Campbell fan
But..
That miss in the 3rd where he kicked the belly of the ball was oh so costly
-
It was a crucial miss, agree.
-

But..

He’s flashy
And does things many can’t
Give him absolute credit for that
Last quarter he put in an effort that made Bellis look like Francis Bourke
-
Should have had at least 4

I’d like him playing the percentages a bit more. He’s shaping like a poor mans Shai which is perfectly ok. On track for a 40 goal season which is elite for a small forward.
-
He was extremely selfish last week with one of his goals and he didn’t go for a crucial contest in the last today.
Those things pee me off more than a skill error that people focus on
Skill errors can happen to the most elite of the elite
People (Andyy being a leader of the pack) keep pointing out that I don’t think he’s a gun .. no , I don’t
I think Vlas is a gun. I think Dylan Grimes, Shane Edwards and Kane Lambert etc were guns .. a level below the Cotch, Jack, Dusty, Richo champions
I don’t think Seth Campbell is anywhere near those blokes
So it’s about how people level certain words
I don’t have a problem with him and truly think he can play in a premiership side ..
-
he is a very nice footballer. We are lucky to have him despite the odd selfish moves.
-
Damo, hope you know I'm just enjoying taking the mick when Campbell kicks a goal, hehe.
I think he's a gun personally.
Maybe a .32 but could be a .38 or .45 one day haha

It’s why I don’t normally respond :lol :lol :lol
I’m more just explaining what I mean by how I grade them .. by me saying I don’t think he’s a gun, isn’t an insult

Go Seth
Go Tiges

Played well again but needs to pull his head in at times - some selfish play & rushes of blood in the forward 50 in the second half were costly in a one kick game. Needs to stop blowing all his load early and start converting the important chances later in the game as well. Can remind me of Papley at his selfish my-shyte-don't-stink worst. :shh
-
I think that’s crazy harsh criticism. He looks like our only fwd that can score atm
-

No it's accurate - some of the praise he gets is way over the top. People carrying on like he's Peter stuffing Daicos. :shh

Crazy harsh criticism saying he played well and then comparing him to Papley???
Who is a class above at this stage
:lol :lol :lol :lol :lol
stuff me we’ve gone soft

Atm he's just a quicker, better version of Sam Lloyd. :shh

Both are having very good years. Jack is much older and experienced.

Huge upside and can become a game breaker for us.

Seth Campbell
Seth Campbell, Richmond’s 2022 rookie draftee, made fairly significant inroads in 2024 when playing 21 games of AFL football. He won the Tigers’ best first-year player award last season by kicking 10 goals and averaging 11 touches.
But he has taken his game to another level in the first half of 2025.
Campbell leads the club’s goal kicking with 17 majors, has the equal most tackles inside 50 (11 alongside Rhyan Mansell), has the second most score involvements (55), and has provided four goal assists, and is one of the most consistent Tigers this season.
