From RFC site

Richmond has extended the contracts of four of its emerging young players.

Rising midfield star Brandon Ellis' contract, which didn't expire until the end of 2015, has been extended for a further two years beyond that (end of 2017).

Key forwards Ben Griffiths and Liam McBean have signed on until at least the end of the 2016 season, while young utility Kamdyn McIntosh has secured a one-year contract extension.

“We’re excited to be able to secure Brandon, Ben, Liam and Kamdyn at our Club,” said Richmond’s General Manager of Football, Dan Richardson.

"Brandon's had a breakout season this year, exerting significant influence within the team due to his elite running ability and capacity to win plenty of ball.

Great news, cue Bojo.

Surprised about McIntosh. Don't see much in him at all.

Probably spells the end of Arnot (damnit), Helbig, Elton and wouldn't be surprised to see McDonough get the arse now. Surely we won't delisting just the bare minimum (excluding rookies) again?

Can or post up a contracts list, would like to see arnott elton and donuts stay on.
No use changing for change sake, we have a lot of depth and been pretty blessed with injuries this year, reckon they're worth keeping

I think we still need more talent and depth but either way we have to make at least three changes & take three in the National Draft under the rules- they have to come from somewhere.

Forgot King has freed up one spot - but that's still at least two from the senior list that need to go. That's not counting any trades we may make.
