Jonty Faull(Pick 14)
The Vic Country and GWV Rebels key forward has quickly made his presence felt at AFL level.
Faull debuted in Gather Round against Fremantle and has been building each week, taking strong marks and kicking big goals.
His aerial presence and competitiveness is undeniable.
Richmond’s head of development, Sam Lonergan’s lowdownWhat stands out? He's your traditional, old school, physical forward. He's going to crunch packs and there's going to be people conscious of that if they're sitting in the hole. He's a very aggressive, aerial, marking, power forward.
What’s he like? He is very relaxed, very laid back. Sometimes you’ve got to just tap him on the shoulder to make sure he's still concentrating in meetings. In saying that, he's a very intelligent football brain, a high IQ from a football perspective, thinks about the game, understands patterns within. He doesn't need to be coached too much. ‘Just tell me what I need to know, tell me how it is’, no bells and whistles.
Where will he play? He’ll be a key forward. An aerobic player who demands the ball inside 50, ‘kick it to me, I’m going to take this mark’. He’s got a strong sense of belief in and around that ability as well.
