Fraser Gehrig has nominated for the draft

well the G train is out of retirement and has made himself available to be drafted.

should we forget his age and get him in the psd, he is better than richards, and if its ok to have drafted KK last yr, why not get big fraser to help richo next yr

discuss

Nope let him go back to St Kilda or better yet let him go to anywhere but Tigerland

comedy value only. 1-2 years at big dollars taking up a spot we could develop a junior in. No thanks. (although to have him and Richo running around would bring tears to my eyes. I cant see it happening

haha comedy value. i love the g train almost as much as i love richo.
if it were out of him and richards, id take gehrig. id love someone have a go and knock foley out and then around the corner comes the g-trai n and just demolish the bloke who did it.

a grade comedy that stuff

Ch 10 saying Gehrig only wants to come ut of retirement if it's with the Saints. He's too old for where we are at but I thought that would be draft tampering  ???.

"We'll talk about Gehrig" - Miller

Richmond football director Greg Miller said the Tigers would discuss Gehrig's availability but doubted they would recruit him.

"We'll talk about him," he said. "He's in the national draft, so 16 clubs can take him."

Bulldogs, West Coast, Collingwood, Geelong and the Brisbane Lions have already ruled out recruiting Gehrig.

He can still take a good contested grab and is a pretty straight shot at goal. I'd look at him but only if he wants to play for us. If he has made it clear he wants to play for the saints then stuff him he can go there.

Did he get a farewell ride around the MCG on GF day? If so he should have to drive backwards around the MCG before being drafted.

In round 22  he was kissing kids across the fence, got carried off by his teammates and gave his jumper to some kid.

I find it hysterical that he is in Switzerland and has had this change of heart - give me a break

Particularly as he wants only to go to the Aints.

Stoopid actually.
