why do we want meyer, first of all he's soft like all glenelg boys, yeah he's fast and has a good leap but the prob is he is homesick.

Meyer has foot skills that embarrass those of our senior players. Arguably the best kick on our list IMHO. Yeah he's still light on and gets pushed off the footy but he did put on 6kg over last preseason to go from 70 to 76 kg. A similar weight gain next preseason would put him near the playing weight he needs to be for AFL footy. 


thats all weel and good, mt, esp if the kid wants to stay and be a tiger 4 life, but if his heart and soul is not with us, if he wants to be home, what good are these skills 4 us, i say , and i repeat , anyplayer who isnt a tiger through and through , eff off now, this is why i cannot accep razor and rodan in our team and dont understand why we re-signed them! they both showed they didnt love richmond with a passion, and both wanted to look elsewhere and play!  ok razor has been handy attimes, but look at rodan, and no excuses, he is fit and ready but he isnt in it 100% , and u cant use th ekneee reco as an excuse. richos knee injury was far worse and he came back and kicked 92 goals! gas was a different story, he wasnt ready, but rodan is, he was ready late last season but they held him off, and he cant even perform in the burgers!

so if meyer is with ud 100% keep him, if he isnt , who cares how good he can kick , ship him off. i truly hope he wants to remain,  i know he has class, but if he isnt in it 4 the right reasons, goodbye

Fair enough X but let's just wait until the end of the year at least. We gave guys like Pettifer and Hyde 4 years to come on while Meyer has only been around one and a half. Hydey wasn't exactly Mr extrovert himself before Terry came along. The boys were giving Danny heaps of praise for his efforts and finishing skills at training yesterday. Out of Rodan and Meyer I know who I'd rather hang onto.
