When is the cut off for this thing? This will be a crazy decision to not take a pick here and I don't care who goes back to the VFL

We have  a few duds so choose one first and go from there. Armstrong may be the one if that fails.

If he doesn't play until late July/aug then what is the bloody point even trying to get into the seniors.

Done and dusted we don't have a pick.

Midseason draft is tonight



Disappointed personally.

Reckon we'll lose 2-3 VFL guys.

Shame we didn't give one of them a chance and just ice a kid like Armstrong...

I wouldn't be getting my knickers in a knot about this draft and not having a pick. It's a shame our vfl team gets weakened but good luck to the players, wish them well.

So 1 player taken from our vfl side which we couldn’t have even taken anyway. So much for the raid.

I was expecting at least two.

I wanted to try Raso because I think he has more upside than MRJ (surely we can't say the VFL players aren't fit enough vs him lol) and I've been underwhelmed by both Mansell and Green this year.

Midseason draft irrelevant for us. Maybe for Essendon desperate to finish 8th
"The money might have been better. But, at the end of the day, Richmond showed faith in me. It's only fair that now we're 18th on the ladder, I show the faith back in the club and do everything I can to put them in front. In the end, I'm stoked I made the decision to stay. I f***ing love this club”
