So no pick left to invite someone over summer like Stack situation.

Counting Pickett, we've bought in 5 players so far and lost 7 (Grigg, Butler, Ellis, Weller, Menadue, Moore & Townsend) my guess is that we'll give an invite to Sam Murray and leave at least one spot open for next year's mid-season draft... :shh

Counting Pickett we've brought in 6 players as we drafted 5 kids.

With 5 Category A rookies we're allowed one more (max 6).

Or we can add one more top the main list

Why didn't we get a rookie draft pick? We weren't listed as passing, so I assume we just didn't get a pick. Are our rookie spots filled?

Surprised no-one picked up Darcy Cassar & Ben Kelly...thought Sam Lowson would've at least got a rookie gig somewhere considering how many clubs wanted him in the MSD before his injury ...would invite any of them to train before that cokehead from Collingwood...:shh

Esp Ben Kelly with his size and speed youd think someone would take a punt on him.

Kelly sounds like a good project wouldn't mind even Darcy Hilder.

Bloke on BF seems to think we have no spots left because Eggmolese-Smith was upgraded from a Catergory B rookie to a Catergory A rookie? Is this right?

First round draft twists

Callum Twomey
afl.com.au
5 Dec 2019


...

Thomson Dow was next, as Richmond grabbed the speedy midfielder at No.21 to close out the first round. The Tigers liked his pace and his quick hands reminded them of dual premiership star Shane Edwards, who spent draft night in the Richmond recruiting box after working with their scouting team at different stages during the year.

The Tigers got excited as Kemp started to drift down the order, but Carlton extinguished that hope.

During all of the first-round drama, Deven Robertson remained on the draft shelf. The Larke medallist and gun West Australian midfielder had been considered for the Blues' Philp spot, and at Richmond's choice, while Geelong had also discussed him on the night.

I'd like to thank whoever told the club that I've sent PMs with information about the draft.  They have contacted me and despite me thinking I was being discreet, they have decided to review my membership for next year. They will also most likely  never present such information to members again.

I will not be posting on this website again.

I wish you all the best for the future.

Only just seen this.

Doc, we have had our differences over the journey but I hope you reconsider your decision not to post again.

We're all passionate Tiger men and women, maybe even transgenders, just to be inclusive  :shh For someone to dog a loyal Tiger man like this is just sickening. No other word for it. Sickening.

To the person who did it, I know who you are I think.... :shh :shh And you have much to answer for........ :shh :shh :shh
