Now watch em dump him as quick as you can blink if he has a quite one. Thats if they even give him a decent go.

Just watched the first two quarters and a half of the Brisbane game and that was enough.

If Miller as a kpd and Nyuon are not better options than Young then we need to delist all three what the hell are we doing down there.

Watched big Miller closely and he will never make it as a fwd and if honest as hes a player ive backed in we probably need to delist him regardless.His only chance is as a kpd.

How insipd and poor are so many of our players and its not a reation to this game ive gone on about it even thru our premiership years.

Its one thing thing to have enough great players who can carry ordinary blokes to success but when they age and can no longer do it it means your not just looking to replace the great ones but the hangers on as well.
Boy are we in for a long period of gloom while we keep on kidding ourselves the good times are not over.

He looked emotional poor bloke. I’ve got a good feeling about him though.

Started forward and was involved from the start. The 5 minutes he spent on the ground was enough to suggest we have a player.

Hopefully it’s low grade hammy then and he can potentially have another crack at it later in the season.

A shame Bauer got injured so early as these early touches showed so much poise and level-headedness for a first gamer.

Jacob Bauer set to sign a two-year deal (afl site)

BAUER POWER CONTINUES AT TIGERS

– Riley Beveridge

27 July 2023


RICHMOND is set to sign promising utility Jacob Bauer to a two-year deal.

Talks progressed on a new deal for Bauer prior to his AFL debut against the Swans earlier this month, with the Tigers nearing an agreement on a multi-year extension that will take the youngster through to 2025.

Bauer, who rose to prominence after kicking two after-the-siren winning goals in four matches at VFL level, had impressed playing as both a 192cm marking forward and intercept defender in Richmond's reserves side.

He made his AFL debut against Sydney, but was unfortunately forced to be substituted out of the game after just 78 seconds having hurt his hamstring with only his second kick of the match. The Tigers are hopeful he will return this weekend.

Bauer was a mid-season rookie pick for Richmond in 2022.

Didn't get much of the pill but his aerial potential and that beautiful kick at the end show why he needs to play every game left this year.

Yep.
“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.
