Can play

you not worried about his disposal tm.
hard to tell with an over ager his stats look good but for a bloke 12months older than most others id say they are average. its his kicking that concerns me. again i  welcome him but im not sure about him.
im filthy jackson nelson went the pick before drummond to wce.  in fact wce took lamb as well at 32 who i liked more than most.
have you seen much of oleg markov . would have gladly taken him with one of our later nd picks and most definately with a rookie pick.

how the hell do you come to that conclusion?

do you have a different definition of "most" than the rest of us or something?

Well because most of the draftees were born in 1996 and he was born January of 1995 that would make him at least 12 months older than most.  Corey Ellis was born in October 1996 making him ~21 months younger than Drummond

[Penelope]

is he 19 days or 12 months and 19 days past the cut off date?

isnt there an age limit for the over age players?

[georgies31]

He's worked his backside off after being knocked back not being drafted and worked on his weakness in his game this season and from all reports did that and was very impressive for our Vfl team to.

Not worried yet claw, but I guess time will tell. Like lambert, this kid seems to have a burning desire to better himself, which I rate highly in individuals. Has great speed and endurance and is a bit of a unit already, reminds me of Vlastuin the way he holds himself(not so much on the footy field).

haven't seen much of Markov, seems to be a long shot type, could be anything or nothing. Injury interrupted year didn't help his cause, with a solid year next year he'll likely be on the radar. Good skillset that's for sure

Gamble pays off for Drummond
richmondfc.com.au 
January 8, 2015

“It was a big relief for me.  It’s all been worth it this year,” Drummond said.

“Taking another year in the TAC Cup, coming home and putting your life on hold and not going to uni for a year, has probably made it all worth it for me.

“But I haven’t really made it yet.  I’ve just started my career.  Hopefully it’s a long one.

Drummond settled into life as a Richmond player by sharing accommodation with defender Dylan Grimes, who was one of the first senior players he met in the days following the Draft.

* I’ve always strived to make it at the highest level.  I missed out on the draft in my 18 year and that drove me to get here this year. It’s been a goal of mine since I was a really young age.  Seeing a lot of my mates get drafted when I missed out was a real motivation for me to get picked up. It was my second time, so I came in more prepared and had a feel on how to prepare for if I didn’t get picked up.

* I’ve been getting some tips off Dylan Grimes.  He’s really professional and organised.  He’s been really good for me.

* I think I can play multiple positions on the ground and I’m someone who’ll work hard both ways.  I pride myself on being a strong tackler as well. I haven’t looked too much past just training.  I want to train hard, put my hand up for a NAB Cup game and see how I go after that.

Heard he [Drummond] broke the record for the fastest 20m sprint ever recorded at Richmond.

^^^ so that makes him 100th fastest in the AFL...

AFL is not the Olympics. Quick is important no doubt but hopefully his disposal compliments it.
