A Richmond star is changing his style, debuting his fashion label on the catwalk. Shai Bolton’s brand was modelled by his teammates and was one of many from first nation's designers, celebrated at the Tiger's training ground.

I rekn it doesn’t look as impressive because he marks it on his chest and lands on his feet. Always thought the great speccys, the ball gets marked at its peak with arms extended and the player lands on his back.

I get ya

Jack used to get me going back in the day

Obviously though it's better for the player to land on his feet. I remember reading about Moorcroft basically stuffing his hip for life in his mark, was never the same again.

Symptomatic of what's wrong with us atm for mine. Looks manic out there. No composure. And seemingly unprepared to play great, simple footy in the 80% of scenarios that call for it.

Totally agree with the last sentence

It was back to show boating Shai in the 3rd when we need him to continue to do what he had been doing in the 1st half

Reckon he is the most frustrating player in our side at the moment

Bolts is way down on form from last year.  How many times do we see someone sign a big contract and then phone it in for the next few years! 

If he doesn't turn it around soon, I'd be trading him to West Coast for their top 3 pick at the end of the year.

how about less of this lefty hip rubbish, and more of the team stuff Shai. His start to the year has been very poor.

Currently a member of the Roupies, and employed by the great man Roup.

Yeah definitely below the mark I was expecting.

Hope this isn't the 'new contract' level some guys deliver.

I wouldn’t ignore the trade offers for Bolton. I think he’s a pretty good player but he’s expendable. He’s the cream on the cake kind of player and as a list we might have no cake in a few years. If the offers are right I wouldn’t ignore them.

I still feel this way. I think he will be wasted here and he is capable of rebuilding our draft position
