Can Richmond play with four talls in the forward-line?

The four being Jack, Lynch, Chol and Nank in the same side.

Lloyd said Chol can only play as a 2nd ruck while Jack & Lynch pick themselves.

Cornes said Chol has only played one good game against a lowly St Kilda. Needs to put together a string of form before locking him in. Hutchy reckons in time Chol will be in our best 22.

On Stack: Hutchy & Cornes both reckon Sam Walsh will win the rising star but Cornes added that Stack will end up the better player of the two.

Who are these idiots?


If Jack, Lynch, Chol and Nank are all playing in the forward line, then who is playing in the Ruck?

Yep Chol 1 good game against lowly Saints and no one was playing on him, which of course you wouldn't bother yet!
Looong way to go

A lot of premiership sides have a tall CHF, 2x tall forwards deep and a ruckman. So yes you can play them all

They're on board now.

What does the forward-line dynamic between Tom Lynch and Jack Riewoldt mean for Richmond's finals hopes?

But the signs are good. He was always going to be a long term project.

Can kick.
Can mark.
Can jump.
Can move through traffic.

Have really enjoyed watching Chol. Coming along well and has a genuine future I think/hope.

I can actually see him playing 3rd tall/2nd ruck, given Jack's ability to play tall or stick to ground level.

I can also see Balta being used as a midfielder or wing with potential for 2nd ruck duties also.

Exciting times!

Chol is 200cm and can jump.  (Nank is 199cm and cannot jump)
If Chol can put on a bit of size and muscle, he could be our first ruck, no doubt.

Imagine having Nank and Chol in full flight over the next 6,7, 8 years going between ruck and forward.

They can both rotate through all three lines....at his best Nank's intercept marking in defence is arguably his biggest strength and Chol's also demonstrated he's no slouch in that area and will only improve... :shh
