Whoever it is we draft, Jack Riewoldt will nickname him "crumpet" lol


Jack Riewoldt on twitter:

"Just took our camp shirts to be nicknamed, whoever our new recruit is, will be called crumpet! #kidwillbecalledcrumpet #whowillitbe #crumpet"

When I was young, it seemed that life was so wonderful,
a miracle, oh it was beautiful, magical.
And all the birds in the trees, well they'd be singing so happily,
oh joyfully, oh playfully watching me.
But then they sent me away to teach me how to be sensible,
logical, oh responsible, practical.
And then they showed me a world where I could be so dependable,
oh clinical, oh intellectual, cynical.

But you see, it's not me, it's not my family.
In your head, in your head they are fighting,
With their tanks and their bombs,
And their bombs and their guns.
In your head, in your head, they are crying...

Just wondering TBR.

do faces come out of the rain?
does no one remember your name?
“For My thoughts are not your thoughts,
Nor are your ways my ways,” says the Lord.
 
“For as the heavens are higher than the earth,
So are my ways higher than your ways,
And my thoughts than your thoughts."

Yahweh? or the great Clawski?

What will be interesting is if we at all pick any of the mentioned players, how many people here tipped Conca last year?? We may have another smokey in line???

Who knows really.

Also gerks, you say Kersten is an 'in-betweener'.

What would you call Fevola, Jack Darling? Same height.

What did you call Jack Riewoldt when he was first drafted?

So much is made about a few 3cm's.

Kersten is a footballer, give me that every day of the week.

By the way, this discussion is all academic, I'm still trying to figure out how Kersten will last to 15.

For what it's worth, I doubt Docherty, will be available at our pick. If he is, agree, we should draft him. If not, and assuming Sumner, Adams and co are also taken before us, well then we should draft on best available, and I have no doubt we will do that. The difference between taking an Ellis at 15, or taking someone similar at 26 is not much. The midfielders in this draft are all pretty similar from 15 to 40 unless there's a slider.

If we have Kersten at 15, we clearly have the 2nd best key forward in the draft staring us in the face. Let me tell you a little bit about Shane after having watched him quite a bit for the last two years.

First of all, he's the best mark in the draft, period. Even better than Patton. He reads the game so well. Already remind you of anyone? He tested top 10 in the clean hands test at the Comine, confirming his ability below his knee for a big guy. He suffered an elbow injury this season, so he missed the National Champs and a lot of the Colts season.

He came back and kicked 18 goals in the last 3 home and away matches. He then kicked 5 in the Grand Final and this is all coming from a very low fitness base. As an under age player in last years National Champs, he also kicked 15 goals. He just missed out being selected to GWS as a 17 year old.

So Kersten has a reason why he didn't test well at the Combine for endurance, he was injured all season.

Yes I do rate Kersten, and if he's available at our pick, I hope we pick him.

People say, 'we don't need another key forward', yeah, I bet you're the first people to complain if god forbid anything ever happened to Jack and Ty that we have no depth.

I've also heard, 'by drafting Kersten, what does that say to Griffiths?'.

Nothing.

Hopefully Griff makes it. Then Ty can play in the ruck. Wow, depth, scary thing isn't it?

You had me at 'in-betweener'  :cuddles

Sorry Gerks, thought it was a nervous tick.

Apology accepted. However, I reported your post to teach you a lesson. It really is for your own good.

Because my opinion differs to you, it's shocking? I've told you why I don't rate McKenzie.

Usually I let you have your say but not this time. You've told me nothing but LIES!!!!!!!!!!!

Good lord, GIMMME IS BACK

As a Richmond supporter its easier to bag everything and then wait for the result, this philosophy has been a massive winner over 3 decades now. Its time you boys cottoned on  ;D
