players that play for, or are earmarked to play for richmond are normally marked different to those from other clubs

Nor are your ways my ways,” says the Lord.

So are my ways higher than your ways,
And my thoughts than your thoughts."

Claws' assessments of players are odd sometimes.

Yarran = too soft.

Bastinac = real talent.

Different marking criteria for different players it seems.

Bastinac is just as soft as Yaz and far less talented. At least Yaz can really hurt teams when he's on. Bastinac's best is just OK.

dunno, yarren is pretty soft

“I find it nearly impossible to make those judgments, but he is certainly up there with the really important ones, he is certainly up there with the Francis Bourkes and the Royce Harts and the Kevin Bartlett and the Kevin Sheedys, there is no doubt about that,” Balme said.

lol,

when are you going to bring grigg and chaplin into a conversation on the politics or science thread?

Grigg & Chaplin are C.I.A operatives....we lost to North because they are puppets of Mossad agent Goldstein.....who are in cahoots with with the Maronite Christian militias in Lebanon.....hence the Nahas turnover goal.... :shh

That's jus the primary issues as I see it;

Is the key back depth suffice with rance and not much else?
Are the ruck department going to compete with an ageing Maric as not much else
Can bachelor continue to compete against 7 footers?

Brisbane have cooled their interest on David Astbury (Age)
« Reply #222 on: October 18, 2015, 05:02:43 AM »
It is understood Brisbane have cooled on Astbury, who now appears less likely than Bell or Bastinac to join the club.

If that is the case it will mean the Tigers have to examine other ways to get a draft pick high enough to satisfy Carlton for Chris Yarran.

It'd be interesting to know what the reason is that Brisbane have all of a sudden cooled on Astbury. Did his medical go okay? Has Dave simply changed his mind and now wants to stay at Tigerland? Or is it something else?
