Post by: wayne on November 21, 2007, 03:12:02 PM

Title: the G train. should we pick him up?

well the G train is out of retirement and has made himself available to be drafted.

should we forget his age and get him in the psd, he is better than richards, and if its ok to have drafted KK last yr, why not get big fraser to help richo next yr

discuss

comedy value only. 1-2 years at big dollars taking up a spot we could develop a junior in. No thanks. (although to have him and Richo running around would bring tears to my eyes. I cant see it happening

Ch 10 saying Gehrig only wants to come ut of retirement if it's with the Saints. He's too old for where we are at but I thought that would be draft tampering  ???.
Title: "We'll talk about Gehrig" - Miller

Richmond football director Greg Miller said the Tigers would discuss Gehrig's availability but doubted they would recruit him.

"We'll talk about him," he said. "He's in the national draft, so 16 clubs can take him."

Bulldogs, West Coast, Collingwood, Geelong and the Brisbane Lions have already ruled out recruiting Gehrig.

He can still take a good contested grab and is a pretty straight shot at goal. I'd look at him but only if he wants to play for us. If he has made it clear he wants to play for the saints then stuff him he can go there.

Did he get a farewell ride around the MCG on GF day? If so he should have to drive backwards around the MCG before being drafted.

In round 22  he was kissing kids across the fence, got carried off by his teammates and gave his jumper to some kid.

I find it hysterical that he is in Switzerland and has had this change of heart - give me a break

Maybe it's the lack of oxygen up in the Alps or Julie Andrews told him to make a comeback  ;).

Richmond also all but ruled out Gehrig last night.

"We haven't even spoken about him," Tigers football director Greg Miller said.

Id rather we get Gourdis at 18 than pick up Gtrain. Its farcical that blokes get to do the lap of honor and then they come back. Jump on the Gourdis bandwagon people. Gourdis sounds Greek as well. We need more Wogs at Richmond. Wogs stick together in a crisis. The Wogs will lead Richmond back to football supremacy.  ;D

In fact if wed kept pick 19 we could have had Cotchin Gourdis and Veszpremi, Vespremi sounds like an Italian. We could have led the revival with a Greek and an Italian, like Alexander the Great and Julius Caesar all we would have needed was a frog at p51 and we could have had Napoleon as well.

If thats the case then lets track down Spiro Kourkoumelis and put him on the coaching staff. :lol
