Kane Lambert retires [merged]

[Yeahright]

i heard he once kicked a goal from outside 50

can anyone confirm ?

Confirmed,

Source?

Anecdotal evidence, which is more than sufficient on here.

I think I do remember him kicking it from 50 (or almost) but I forget what game

Poor mans Michael Barlow

Pretty much......probably a tad generous if anything.....

Pretty sure Miles kicked one from outside 50 in the EF.

Then had a second shot and fell short.

Lambert interview from up in Cairns:

* Twelve months ago, it was my first day at Richmond and it was a whirlwind.  One day I was getting ready just to go to work and the next day I’m in Townsville on a training camp with a new job. But 12 months down the track, I’m a lot more relaxed and I know what to expect.  Being in the system the last 12 months it’s held me in good stead, and I’m really looking forward to what’s ahead.

* I am a little bit proud of what he’s achieved already but the work’s ahead of me. I’m looking forward to what’s ahead, more than what’s happened. Hopefully, I can build on that.  Like the rest of the squad, we all aim to get better and that’s what I’m looking at. I just want to get better every day and, whatever happens, happens.

* I’m really proud of Adam [Marcon] and what he’s been able to achieve. He’s worked hard for his opportunity but he’s under no illusion that it’s going to be easy. He’s here to work hard and hopefully he can do well himself.

* It’s been a good pre-season so far - the boys are training well. We’re all putting our best foot forward and we’re looking forward to the rest of this camp. We just want to improve every day, get through this camp, then we go into Christmas, and come back in good shape after that.

Richmond rookie urges Ovens and Murray footballers to follow AFL dream

RICHMOND’S Kane Lambert has implored young Ovens and Murray footballers to not give up on their AFL dream.

Lambert, who taken by the Tigers in the 2014 rookie draft as a 23-year-old, said it was never too late to come under notice from talent scouts.

Wodonga Raiders’ Sam Murray was selected as a rookie by Sydney after a stellar season in the O and M while the Rouse twins, Zachary and Jordan, have joined Birallee Park after attracting the attention of Swans recruiters.

Lambert was overlooked by AFL clubs as an 18-year-old and a decision to take 12 months off football to train his body to be a senior player paid off for the former Northern Knight.

After four seasons in the VFL with the Northern Bullants and Williamstown, Lambert is now an AFL player with 13 games to his name.

“I think the biggest thing for me was always trying to get the best out of myself, whatever league that was,” he said.

“Playing good footy is a byproduct of enjoying it.

“No matter where you’re playing, you have to enjoy your footy and that was the biggest focus I had in the VFL competition.

“Leave no stone unturned and enjoy your footy.”

Lambert, speaking at Birallee Park during the Tigers’ two-day community camp on the Border, said he was loving life at the top level.

“It’s where I’ve wanted to be for a long time,” he said.

“Obviously you have bigger crowds and expectations but the pace of the game is a lot quicker, you have less time with the footy and you have to make quick decisions.

“You go from a normal working life and just training in the afternoons with footy as an outlet whereas now you get drafted and footy becomes your full-time job.”

Lambert is looking forward to the first pre-season hitout against Fremantle on February 19 ahead of the AFL season opener against Carlton on March 24.

“We want to go out there and compete,” he said.

Lambert, a good friend of North Albury and Howlong export Anthony Miles, said he had enjoyed his time on the Border.

“I think as AFL footballers we are privileged to be in a position to get involved in these community engagement activities,” he said.
