Welcome everyone to One-Eyed Richmond's Tiger Forum Cheers from mightytiges and WilliamPowell.
Speaking to Craig Lambert today and he tells me one of his four young sons (13 y-o) is already on the RFC radar. The kid is over-the-moon and will be a guest of the club down the track
Father-Son selections are huge in strengthening up the list in the long term, without giving up too much. although the dogs parting with their 1st rounder for cordy might have been a little generous in hindsight.

Wikipedia has him playing 123 games for us and 96 games for the Bears/Lions.So they would not be able to nominate him for father son anyway.I remember the talk but after a bit of research i am certain we are the only ones that can lay claim.
Weightman has 3 sons...but are 12, 10 and 8....I've heard the 12 year old Liam is very talented. Something to keep in mind for the future.

Last July they were 13, 11 and 9, according to Flea, so that would make them all approximately 2 years older than what you've said.
