REPORTS: Tigers defender a chance to leave, as midfielder is all but gone
Could McIntosh be out the door this trade period?

Richmond defender Kamdyn McIntosh may reportedly be pried out of Tigerland, if he doesn’t get back into the Tigers’ side during the finals.
McIntosh was a mainstay in Richmond’s side up until round 17, but hasn’t played a senior game since then, after being dropped to the VFL.
Herald Sun reporter Sam Edmund believes McIntosh’s future with the Tigers isn’t guaranteed, despite the 25-year-old signing a two-year extension with the club earlier this year.
“Kamdyn McIntosh is interesting, he re-signed two months ago at Richmond on a two-year deal, I think he might be gettable though,” he told SEN Breakfast.
“He’s out of the side, his last game was Round 17, he’s out of favour suddenly. If he doesn’t play finals, watch this space.
“If a club came for McIntosh, his head might be turned.”

His head might be turned but he is contracted for two more years so the deal would have to be excellent for us to agree to it.
I’d imagine WP would have better info on this..... :shh

Would be a shame to lose KMac, but we have the power here. Worse things could happen but I was hoping to see him play the last few weeks.

This is basically an opinion piece with no evidence.

McIntosh Short and Castagna to Gold Coast. Pick 2 thanks and they can have Townsend and Butler for Free.

Ill stuffing spew, he is a good player stupid to throw him away, Ellis np but not Mac

No chance IMO.

Don't worry owly it's BS, but there is a reason multiple clubs are floating big dollars towards the BEllis. Don't you EVER drag him down in my presence :shh

Theyll all put out like Carlton except for Gold Coast who are desperate.

Cmon WP. What position is he really after?
He’s got Buckley’s chance of playing in defence considering how stable it is back there and how well it’s functions.
It’s either wing or bust.
On the weekend he has an opportunity to dominate the wing in a final and stamp his dominance showing everyone he’s a better player than vfl.
From reports he didn’t do this and because the whole team played crap for three quarters he was moved defensive to try to bring him into the game as he was unsighted for the first three, fortunately Nank, Pickett, Butler and a few others dominated the last quarter.

I am telling you that at VFL level he is being told to play half back not wing. So how can he "stamp his dominance" in a position he isn't playing :huh
Which part of it don't you get?

Even if it’s true that he’s tried as a defender, whose place would he be earmarked for?
I’d concede to possibly replacing Short
Any half back flanker is required to be a offensive runner much like a wingman whilst still being accountable in defence. Did he make a statement on Saturday demanding selection?
6 disposals - 2 i50s & 1 r50. I don’t think so.
Reality says that his best chance is either Ellis wing or Caddy wing.
We all know Ellis’ deficiencies and Caddy is painfully slow, so his best chance will be back where he is the most useful. That said and as I already said earlier is that he had an opportunity but failed miserably even if it was in defence.
I’m not sure why your defending such a mediocre Performance?

Future 1st round thanks. He is young and a premiership playerm
-
In all seriousness- what would you let him go for?
Me, a pick between 25 to 35 would be about right IMO.
Combine his cash and Bellis’ cash and trade for Laird.
Too easy!
-
Wellingham got pick 20 for Collingwood.
I'd expect similar if he went.
-
Send him to North for Sam Durdin.
-
I think he can be in our best 22, I wouldn't trade. I thought his first half of the year was really good.
-
Keep for mine. Should be playing before Ellis anyway IMO.
-
For me I really like McIntosh and what he brings, but what this year has shown me more than anything else is it isn’t always the better you know.
McIntosh is a good player but not a great player and if he does leave there is the potential to replace/find a champion take his spot.
If he left it gives another young guy a chance in his position.
Sydney Stack has shown me there are guns out there that can completely change the club if given the chance.
-
McIntosh is a role player who plays his role well in our team.
His pace and endurance are important to our pressure game, and I would have thought we’d want to keep him.
-
The archetypal "good ordinary player".....handy to have around but easily expendable.... :shh
-
i dont get the angst about this bloke going.
Name one thing he does to a very high level i cant think of one.
Running hard and runnining straight just doesnt cut it theres so much more to the game than this
For a bloke who has played so much on a wing his numbers over the duration, that is they have been constant are poor.
Couple this with the panic kicks the regular fumbles when under pressure the lack of composure the paltry amount of ball he gets even as a defensive wing he is more than expendable.
In saying that id have him in the team before a bloke like Ellis every day of the week.
For me its simple every single team has room for improvement and that includes us. W e need to evolve and keep evolving by weeding out blokes like Ellis and unfortunate to say McIntosh.
Theres plenty of blokes who have big holes in their games who have been around for awhile and just have not addressed the deficiencies.
Good ordinary sums him up and it implies we have to find a bit better and improve.
-
Lets face it, it's highly unlikely his trade value ever going to be higher... :shh
-
Premiership player, adds serious currency! Personally I'd like to keep him but would prefer to try Balta and see if he can do a better job
-
Big chance to come in next week i reckon
-
run with role?
has the tank, has experience.
yes for me
-
Pretty good test for who comes in is the VFL GF..... :shh
-
^
Bloody oath
-
Man I don't wanna lose Macca, he is a tiger
-
A very handy but severely flawed and easily replaced fringe player with premiership medal- the exact sort you should be looking to trade while they still have currency... :shh
-
Yes Diode your assessment of Mcintosh is probably as good as your assessment of Soldo. :lol :lol :lol
-
So you're saying he's flawless player that's not easily replaced? Ok then..... :shh
-
Can't have 22 stars in your side guys has to be those role players.
-
I think hes a chance because hes been to the big dance before, hes an experienced player now and he is a big runner who has often gotten forward and kicked a goal or two. He can also play a run with role if needed.
-
me too ramps. I love ross but the last game he played seemed to be way out of his depth for the minute.
Happy to be proven wrong.
-
I think there are 2 main questions:
1) Are we going to struggle without him as we have no other options?
2) Does he have value?
I think 1) is pretty obvious but 2) is dependant on what other teams are willing to pay. No harm in floating his name

Kamdyn McIntosh (Richmond)
Signed a new deal but will likely miss out on the AFL Grand Final as well as the VFL premiership after being held over. Would a club like Fremantle, which is set to lose Brad Hill and Ed Langdon as running power, consider dragging him home?

Contracted Tiger “looking at his options” for 2020: Cleary
By SEN
1 Oct 2019
Richmond wingman Kamdyn McIntosh could be on the move this trade period.
According to AFL.com.au’s Mitch Cleary, McIntosh is “looking at his options” despite signing a two-year contract extension in July.
The 25-year-old fell out of favour in the second half of the year and was overlooked for Richmond’s 89-point Grand Final win over GWS.
“Kamdyn McIntosh is an interesting one,” Cleary told Telstra AFL Trade Radio.
“He’s re-signed; he is contracted for the Tigers for next year at least – he is definitely looking at his options.
“I’m not sure of any concrete suitors for Kamdyn McIntosh, but it’s a watch this space on him."
McIntosh was part of Richmond’s 2017 premiership and has played 90 games since debuting in 2015.
https://www.sen.com.au/news/2019/09/30/contracted-tiger-looking-at-his-options-for-2020-cleary/
-
Hmmm 90 games. Might need to hold on to him and get him to 100
-
I reckon Cleary is just stating the absolute flipping obvious and trying to link it to Kamdyn’s obvious disappointment at missing the GF.
Of course he will be looking at his options. He will want feedback about his place in the team going forward given he got dropped and couldn’t force his way back in. But to insinuate he might leave because he wasn’t selected for the grand final is an abolute sleight on a bloke who is a fine clubman at a club that prides itself on selflessness.
Amateurish stuff Cleary you stuffing sad jerk off.
-
SEN news just said Kmac has been linked to Freo.
-
Want to keep him, but would let go for their pick 26 or trade for Cerra.

Another fringe Tiger could be on way out
Sam Edmund
Herald Sun
4 Oct 2019
Kamdyn McIntosh is open to leaving Richmond if a rival club presents the right deal.
McIntosh signed a new two-year deal with the Tigers in July, but was dropped only a week after putting pen to paper and couldn’t get back into the senior side.
The wingman’s increasing frustration was compounded by the Tigers’ decision to withdraw him from the VFL Grand Final as insurance for an AFL Grand Final he wasn’t selected for.
McIntosh, 25, was running second in Richmond’s best-and-fairest count after Round 8 and was hurt by missing out on a premiership of either kind.
He leaves for an overseas holiday on Sunday also open to the idea of leaving Punt Road in search of regular senior football.
McIntosh looms as the perfect target for Fremantle and new coach Justin Longmuir, hailing from Perth and coming through Peel Thunder.
The looming departure of wingers Ed Langdon and Brad Hill has created a need for speed at the Dockers, who are also interested in McIntosh’s Victoria-born Richmond teammate Connor Menadue.
McIntosh has played 90 games for the Tigers and was a member of their 2017 premiership side.
But the emergence of Marlion Pickett and Sydney Stack has seemingly limited his opportunities under coach Damien Hardwick, while Josh Caddy and Shane Edwards are playing on a wing.
Highly rated father-son Patrick Naish will also push for selection next year.
Hawthorn great Dermott Brereton said McIntosh could not be blamed if he left the Tigers.
“Kamdyn McIntosh, if one of possibly 17 clubs turn around and say, ‘Would you like to come to us? Here’s $100,000 more or $200,000 more’ he will have to question it because he’ll think that loyalty can only carry you so far,” Brereton told Fox Footy.
“And if he still wants to stay a Tiger, put up a statue of him.
“He’s the best clubman in the AFL.”

Kamdyn McIntosh is another who missed out on September glory, however Balme said the club was keen to keep him.
“He’s contracted and we’re keen for him to stay and we think that’s what he should do,” Balme said.
“But if somebody came at him with a really significant offer that he wanted to think about, we certainly wouldn’t dismiss is straight away.
“But I think it’d be pretty unlikely for him to go.”

Exactly. Just lazy, shallow journalism. Finds an easy narrative to exploit. But with all the trade work happening, no one will ever follow it up or hold him accountable.

Tigers open to McIntosh offers
Tim Michell at Marvel Stadium
Herald-Sun
7 October 2019
Richmond says it will consider offers for wingman Kamdyn McIntosh but remains hopeful he will be at Punt Road in 2020.
McIntosh signed a new two-year deal with the Tigers in July but was one of the hardluck stories of the finals when he missed out on the club’s VFL and AFL premierships.
The 25-year-old was held over from the VFL decider after Jack Graham was injured in Richmond’s preliminary final win over Geelong, only for Marlion Pickett to debut in the Grand Final.
Tigers football boss Neil Balme said on Monday the club wanted to hold onto McIntosh but would consider the right offer for the 90-gamer.
"We are keen for him to stay. But if someone is really keen and makes a really big offer and they want to do something with him and he's keen to pursue it, we wouldn't dismiss it completely,” Balme said.
“But if it was up to us now we would say he is a required contracted player. Again you've got to take the individual into account as well as the club.”

McIntosh to remain at Tigerland
By Pete Ryan
The Age
16 Oct 2019
Tigers' wingman Kamdyn McIntosh looks set to remain with Richmond despite being overlooked for the Grand Final. He extended his contract until the end of 2021 late in the year but only played one senior game after the deal was announced.
Although relatively happy with the Tigers McIntosh was understood to be open to a move if another club was able to provide the promise of greater opportunities however with nothing concrete coming to fruition he will back himself to win his spot back as the club attempts to go back to back.

Deserves a second chance at a VFL flag.... :shh
-
Based on the GF team, I'd be happy for him to take BEllis' spot.
-
Based on the GF team, Rance & Stack will come in for BEllis & Short.... :shh
-
Baker and bolton still questionable imo. Stack was better in the backline than baker, thats not to take away from bakers efforts though.
-
Both far superior to Short....:shh
-
Kamdyn was never going...... :shh

Our rep. on SEN just said Kmac was never going. It was all just speculation.

Glad he's staying

Me too :clapping

Not rubbish
Contracted player has to agree to any trade. He didn't want to leave
-
Doubt Balme would've publicly said they might be open to offers if the right one came along had McIntosh flat out said no from the start.. :shh
-
I’m glad he stayed as I like his niggle.
But he will have to improve quickly to be in our best 25 IMO.
-
Glad he is still here.
-
Nobody wanted him so he stays.

They did but only for next to nothing... :shh

They did but only for next to nothing... :shh
similar to SSP in that regard :shh

Yeah nah not similar at all.... :shh :shh

Typical BS from some oppo teams.
'He wasn't your best 22 for the GF so he should be free' garbage.
Internally we know he has worth and I'm glad we didn't sell him out.

RICHMOND FREE AGENT SET FOR DEAL
TIGERS wingman Kamdyn McIntosh is closing in on a new multi-year deal.
The two-time premiership player is an unrestricted free agent and would have been able to automatically move to another club without Richmond being able to match an offer.
However, McIntosh will extend his stay at Tigerland with what is expected to be a two or three-year deal as Richmond whittles down its list of unsigned flag winners.
The 27-year-old has missed the past three weeks with a hamstring injury he suffered in round 18 against Brisbane but remains a central member of Richmond's midfield unit and has played 16 games this year.
The West Australian featured in the Tigers' breakthrough 2017 flag, missed their 2019 triumph but won back his place in Richmond's line-up last year for its Grand Final win over Geelong at the Gabba.

He's a free agent so would get zero
-
traded, let go, whatever....outside players with poor disposal are obsolete... :shh :shh

Hope he is signed cheap. Has had a poor year

Kamdyn is a superb athlete from what I have been told.
You know what you are going to get from him.
For me, happy he has re-signed

He hasn't re-signed. Article suggesting he is close to re-signing
But agree will be a good move
He has a role, plays it exactly the way the Coach wants him to. That's why he's getting a new deal
-
I'll concede that if they scrap the stupid stand rule he might be of some use again...and he can plug a hole down back I guess -was superb in the GF.... :shh
-
Rather give kids a go players like him and George and Aarts need to be replaced.

Your club's underrated performer: Round 23
theRoar.com.au
23 August 2021
Richmond Tigers: Kamdyn McIntosh
For all of the media and the coverage around the dynasty being over, even if it’s reflecting the dynasty or the match on Saturday, it’s rare to see McIntosh get any sort of credit. A wingman who’s more Mitch Robinson-like than Hugh McCluggage, he busts his guts out and is one of those players who bleed footy colours.
Against the Hawks he picked up 16 disposals (ten kicks), five marks, five tackles, five contested possessions, three score involvements and a couple of inside 50s and rebound 50s, and he used the ball well, at 81 per cent.

Kamdyn McIntosh was one of Richmond’s most consistent performers throughout the pre-season practice match period.
The dual Tiger premiership player followed up a solid performance against Geelong at GMHBA Stadium (16 disposals, five marks) with a top-class display on his wing in last Saturday’s victory over Hawthorrn at Devonport.
In typical style, McIntosh ran himself ragged over the course of the four quarters, finishing the match with 25 disposals, five marks and seven score involvements.
The 27-year-old veteran of 125 games with Richmond is a pivotal member of the team due to his hard running, which enables him to get to so many contests and drive the ball forward for the Tigers.

Hard-running dual Richmond premiership player Kamdyn McIntosh is shaping as a welcome addition to the Tigers’ line-up after missing the season-opener with a minor calf injury.
“He’s a very under-rated player outside of our four walls. He’s important the way we structure up and the way we go about it,” Hardwick said.
“So, he’ll train today and hopefully take his place in the side because I thought we missed him last week.”

Hmm is he escaping scrutiny after the gws game.
Played on the wing looked fumbly had just 10 disposals laid just the one tackle, o clearances, just 4 contested possesions, o marks, just 158 metres gained, 2 intercepts, 3 score involvements. just 1 rebound and 2 i/50.
Regardless of role very underwhelming game.

Played on the wing looked fumbly had just 10 disposals laid just the one tackle, o clearances, just 4 contested possesions, o marks, just 158 metres gained, 2 intercepts, 3 score involvements. just 1 rebound and 2 i/50.
Regardless of role very underwhelming game.
Yet again you just look at stats, nothing else. I get you are watching on TV and not at the ground. If you were at the ground you'd see (hopefully if you can take your blinkers off) what he is doing, his work rate and heaven forbid his role
Every player has a role, some roles aren't about stats. Yet again KMac played the role the coaches asked him to play. It isn't about possessions. Suggest you have a listen to Dimma's pre-match presser and you may find out how important KMac is to our side.
-
Lol im over this constant bull poo of its not his role to get the ball its not his role to deliver the ball well or its not his role to run the lines with ball in hand its nonsense
Stop kidding yourself of course the coaches want him to get the ball use it well run hard both ways he is not there just to run hard and offer sweet stuff all else and im pretty sure the coaches want more as well.
Mate if that is not a bad game then he will never have one talk about blinkers.
Yep its not just about stats but when they back up to the hilt what you see then you use them.

Kapsy is so important to the way we play and he is the total team player.
Plays his role so well

Missed the Tosh round 1. Glad he's back and is out beautifully

What are you on about? He wouldn't be selected if the coaches think he is not offering the team something. Pretty sure the coaches are happy with his output which is all that matters :shh
-
I thought he was solid indeed.
-
In the actual media conference, Dimma said Kmac is a close contact rather than actually having covid. So provided he doesn't end up with covid he will be back next week.
-
Not many to so far want to talk about him but im gunna make sure this absolute spud is spoken about.
I tell ya what the real difference between them and us was a simple we have too many limited role players and their role players are simply more rounded.
Just because your winning games no club should ever forget the credence of upgrade upgrade upgrade. It may not be much but your better off aiming for it which is something we refuse to do.
-
He's an average player Claw but was far from our worst tonight and most weeks.
There's at least half a dozen I'd drop before him.
-
I'm no massive Kmac fan but he's the least of our issues at the moment.
-
Agreed re he is the least of our issues but geez Melbourne showed how effective wingmen can be. Smashed us there.
-
I'm no massive Kmac fan but he's the least of our issues at the moment.
How did Langdon go tonight and here we play McIntosh supposedly for his defensive attributes. Add in every time he touches it its a disaster and the absolute horrid delivery into our fwd half and and no he is one of opur biggest issues atm.
We need skill and ,ore skill and then some. Fmd the bloke played on a wing all night and at no stage did he take the game on. That is not what we have wingers for. Any way we don't want butcher McIntosh taking the game on he just gives it straight to the opposition.
-
Runs hard but boy does he hack the ball.
Limited role player, of which we have too many.

The Tiger owning more than a wing … and Dimma's threat over scooter delays
Kamdyn McIntosh's mind is always pondering the next side hustle, but he'll be firmly focused on his day job on Thursday night
By Josh Gabelich
afl.com.au
1 September 2022
IT ALL started in the hub on the Gold Coast back in 2020. Richmond was based inside the RACV Royal Pines Resort, just around the corner from Metricon Stadium. Often bored and looking for activities to fill the time, they spent countless hours playing board games. That's where Kamydn McIntosh formulated the idea for Build N Buy.
The Tigers would eventually emerge from more than 100 days on the road with a third premiership victory in four seasons to cement dynasty status. And McIntosh would depart Queensland with two medals – a second premiership medallion and the Kevin Bartlett Medal for finishing fifth in the best and fairest – plus a new business idea.
Now almost two years on since that season like no other ended at the Gabba, the Tigers head back to the sunshine state purring ahead of another finals series under Damien Hardwick.
And what started as something to do with his spare time in the hub has turned into a proper business for McIntosh. Build N Buy by KM Games launched last month and the first batch has already sold out. The plan is to keep building it into something bigger in the off-season. But for now, McIntosh must take care of his day job.
The plan is to keep building into something bigger and better in the off-season. Even a couple of real estate agencies are keen on using the board game as a sales tool. But for now, McIntosh is focused on the month ahead, starting with Richmond's elimination final against Brisbane at the Gabba on Thursday night.
"We all had a heap of time in the hub and we were playing Monopoly and I wanted a different card game that had principles about buying property in real life, one that kids could be playing and parents could start conversations about buying property," McIntosh told AFL.com.au this week.
"I started printing them out on bits of paper and cutting them out. The boys were all throwing paper cards around the table for a little bit there. I copped some poo for it; the boys were giving me a heap of feedback about it in the hub, but I took it away, got up Word documents and PowerPoints and printed it all off. Then finally it started working and the game flowed.
"I have all these ideas and I'm a bloke who if I put the time and effort into something, I try to finish it no matter what. I just thought, what's there to lose? I wanted to learn a bit more about business as well, so I've had a lot of conversations with people outside of the footy club that have given me a heap of lessons, which I'm very thankful for."
While Brisbane didn't spend a single round of the home and away season outside the eight and nestled themselves inside the top-four from round three until round 20 before drifting to sixth, Richmond is arguably under the least pressure heading into September.
The Tigers only cemented a finals berth in round 22 but loom as the sleeping giant with the runs on the board – they have 10 wins from 12 finals since 2017 – and the knowledge they have done it all before.
"I think there is (a belief Richmond can make a deep run), definitely. I mean the way we've been playing footy the last month as a group we've started to get that belief as well and a lot of evidence," McIntosh said.
"We do believe genuinely that we are a finals footy side and we've got some youth coming in learning our system but we're always growing as a club and learning. Every season is a different season; this season has been a different season. It's a new side in a way, but belief is what you need to be a good finals team and we've got that."
After winning that flag at the Gabba and only losing twice at the ground since 2004 – once in a qualifying final against Brisbane in 2020 – McIntosh says a knockout final in hostile territory doesn't hold any fears for the club, especially after the Tigers recovered from 42 points down to beat Brisbane a month ago.
"I think that we travel really well. We just love getting around each other as a group. Although it's a finals game, it is a time where we get to travel together and gel together, sit around a dinner table and tell stories and have a laugh, so it's moments like that that I look forward to," he said.
"We're focused on the game and done opposition meetings and line meetings, but I think we just enjoy each other's company and that's what is really highlighted on trips like this. It is exciting to go interstate for our first finals game."
In a team stacked full of seasoned stars – Jack Riewoldt, Trent Cotchin, Dustin Martin and Tom Lynch – and emerging stars – Shai Bolton, Liam Baker and Daniel Rioli – McIntosh plays his role week in, week out, and has done across 145 games at the highest level.
But when it comes to the Pinjarra product, his influence can't be measured in metres gained or kicking efficiency. 'McIntosh Moments' are the stuff of legend inside the Richmond Football Club, once documented in hilarious detail via former star Shaun Grigg in his must-see 'Chronicles of Kamdyn' segment on the Talking Tigers podcast.
There is never a dull moment when McIntosh is involved; just ask Hardwick, who drew attention to the most recent story involving the procurement of electric scooters. The 28-year-old ordered 18 of them for players and staff directly from an overseas manufacturer early in the year, before the shipment was delayed. Not once, but twice.
McIntosh almost collected the wrong scooters from the warehouse in Clayton when they finally arrived, following weeks of pointed feedback from the senior coach and buyers who were fed up waiting. Luckily, Jayden Short met him at the warehouse with his ute to help transport them back to the club and realised the right ones were hidden up the back.
"The back story is, I go down the Peninsula a bit between a couple of projects I've got down there. I stay down there and take some of the boys or my family. I bought four scooters for myself and the running gag is why the hell do I need four scooters when I only need one? The boys were all giving me poo about them, but they were also asking me if I had any more," he said.
"Then I put an order in and said: whoever wants one, let me know. I ended up ordering 18 for the boys. Dimma wanted two. Grimesy wanted one, Noah Cumberland wanted two. I went straight to the manufacturer overseas and that's how I got my first lot. I ordered 18 scooters and it was going to take 40 to 50 days delivery. I had to pay the whole nine grand up front and it was slow to get the money back.
"They are all revving me up the whole time with when will my scooter get here? The deadline comes after 50 days and they weren't happy. It was a month delayed because it was held up in Singapore in the dock. Another month went by and it was delayed again because it was held up here in customs. So it is a two-month delay and it was nothing to do with me.
"I stitched Dimma up a ripper because he was the one hassling me the most. He got me up out the front and said: You've got 10 days for my scooter to be here or you're going to be dropped."
McIntosh isn't the only Tiger with entrepreneurial spirit inside Punt Road. Dylan Grimes owns Mount Macedon Winery in country Victoria and has built the business into a winner. Trent Cotchin runs Posisocks with his wife Brooke. Nick Vlastuin is training to become a helicopter pilot, while Jason Castagna is looking to become a tattoo artist.
None of them generate the hysterical stories that McIntosh does. Expect many more to come. But first, it is back to Queensland to start another September campaign.

Laugh-a-minute Tiger reaches 150 games, much to his surprise
By Michael Gleeson
The Age
April 8, 2023
Kamdyn McIntosh appreciates the absurdity of it. If he played for another club, and not the most successful recent one, he probably would have been cut and never got to 150 games. Thus, he also knows he wouldn’t have two flags if he played for anyone else.
He’s so Richmond. He’s not the perfect player, but he is the ideal Richmond player.
In his words, it’s not only un-bloody-believable (one of his favourite terms) it’s a pee-er (his other favourite).
“Ha it is, it’s un-bloody-believable. Yeah, it’s a pee-er, I’d say to the boys. They are the two words I go with a fair bit,” McIntosh laughed.
Actually, it’s redundant to say McIntosh laughed, it’s all he does. His default position is to laugh, often at himself, as often at his teammates.
He is a funny 150-game player. He’s spent his years between winning flags in 2017 and 2020 in and out of the team and back in again. Throughout just kept turning up, smiling, laughing and doing what was asked of him.
It’s the tale of his career. He’s found a place on the wing, as the hard-running, rangy player doing jobs, running to the places the team needs him to be, keeping his game simple and trying to connect his teammates.
A player of limitations, he plays within those limitations. At another club he might not have survived, but at Richmond he fits the system and the role perfectly.
“I think about that as well. I have taken on a role on that wing that is so structured and team-orientated as opposed to individual. That’s my role in the side and I love it. I wouldn’t have it any other way, I love being the connector within the playing group,” McIntosh said.
“Early days in my career I got dropped a few times so, no, I’d never thought I’d get to 150 games, if I’m honest. I was wondering, ‘Am I going to get delisted?’ But then the 2017 grand final, 2018, then got dropped again in 2019 and I still had question marks whether I was going to get dropped again. But I dunno, I kept showing up and kept playing and all of a sudden it’s 150 games and it’s like, ‘Geez, that went quick’, but it was a pretty tough route, too.”
On Thursday night 13 members of his family from rural West Australia arrived. The airfares stung, but COVID had blown out travel plans since 2019, so there was a buzz about the place with the tribe arriving. Kamdyn had set up blow-up mattresses and sleeping bags for them all over the house to fit them all in.
They’d come a fair way. His mum drives trucks on the mines in the Pilbara in northern WA and his dad owns the McDonald’s franchise in Karratha but is set to move south to Busselton.
“They were getting in at midnight (Thursday night) and coming over. I said ‘I’ll be asleep, but I’ll get up when you get here.’ The house is going to be full, blow up mattresses, sleeping bags. Reminds me as a kid going to the grandparents down on the farm and you’d bunk up for school holidays and that.”
A connector on the field, he connects the group off it.
When they were in the hub McIntosh was bored. For a fidgety bloke who likes to be busy, being idle was difficult. So he invented a card game. It’s doing well.
“Oleg (Markov), Grimesy, Jase Castagna and I had a heap of time on our hands and I ended up creating this card game based around real estate called ‘Build and Buy’. We are in talks now with Ray White Australia and Hodges real estate and others. It’s actually a pretty free-flowing game,” he said.
“I came up with the idea and the boys gave me a heap of feedback taking the pee. I have a manufacturer on board, graphic designer to do the images. It’s a full card game now up and running.”
The building part of it is because he is close to finishing his building licence and recently launched his company K Trades. Suffice to say its made him popular with his teammates.
“I reckon I have been to 15 of the blokes’ houses to help them out some way or another. The other week I was pouring a concrete slab at Kane Lambert’s. I did the whole landscaping at Jayden Short’s house; Jack Graham, I had to help him with a barbecue pergola area. Grimesy [Dylan Grimes] has had me out at Mount Macedon at his winery doing some gate work.
“Sam Frost at Hawthorn got stitched up by another tradesman and I helped him out, finishing a pergola and barbecue area. We are doing a steam room, sauna, and plunge pool at Mount Martha for a couple of jockeys. It’s good.”
Then again, he has leant on his teammates to help him too. A few years ago he made a concrete and timber dining table. Mainly because Short said he couldn’t. The problem was it was so bloody heavy he couldn’t move it out of his garage where he built it. So he got his teammates over to lift it for him on the promise of a meal.
“I cooked them the good old spaghetti bolognaise and I was cooking that and I thought I had time to change the water over in my fish tank while I was cooking dinner so I was doing that when the boys rocked up. But then they wanted to move the table straight away so we started doing that and I forgot I had the garden hose filling the fish tank.
“It was in the living room, so the fish tank starts over flowing, it was there for about 10 minutes and it’s flooded the whole dining area and kitchen area and then my spaghetti bolognaise was burnt. It was a complete schemozzle.”
And he just laughs at the memory. He is laughing at a lot of memories – two premierships and now 150 games.

Great read, as Konrad's writings usually are.
Certainly explains what his role is and how it's not always about the number of disposals

Exceptional article
What a character!

Underwhelming 150th game

Underwhelming 150th game
At his age and with his disposal by foot it might be time to move him on and free up a spot on the wing for a kid who can kick the football. I hate to say it because I like him and he's a competitive beast, but he's never been a great kick and we can't excuse that for a wingman in the current game.
-
Yeh Judson lacks the size and probably the tank but I think he would do alright on a wing
