Richmond Rant / Re: Rookie Draft

Hard for some to understand but Richmond just cant be up front and not nominate a player if they don’t intend to take him. To give someone hope and then tell them we’ve changed our mind and think that’s ok tells you a lot about those people.

The fact we didn't even give him a rookie change is...quite poor IMO.

I'm not sure I've seen any club with a F/S option late in the draft not at least give them two years to have a crack?

Back the club in and recruitment team let's not recruit players because of romance. He may be one of 3 players to push fro that rookie spot on a train on list.

17 other clubs had the chance to draft him and passed so one has to assume he’s not viewed as AFL standard.

Classic bazball. All out for 170 within 30ish overs.

Archie Daffy shaking in his boots right now.

Doesn't he look like a better prospect?

No idea tbh. I actually thought kellaway looked like a good prospect and he couldn’t even get a rookie spot in a weak draft. He was extremely consistent, averaged 19 with a dominant SA winning the national championship and 24 with Sturt which he won the U18 premiership with.

I don’t understand why our club would leave Kellaway hanging .
An explanation is needed , otherwise it comes across as disrespectful to the Kellaways

LOL .. an explanation is needed? Why?
I'm sure they have had constant communication with the Kellaway family and find it highly unlikely they would have disrespected them in this process.
