Richmond 07 selections

WTF, how did Gourdis not get picked, must be some huge ??? on him.

Just read elsewhere some talk that he can't kick. Personally I don't know much about him.

[Moi]

Everybody take a deep breath! - we have first PSd pick, plenty of time now to study the leftovers.

We're in a great position.  Well done to Greg and co.  Got everyone that most ppl wanted so there should be no bagging in years to come  

[Ramps]

alot of supposed big name juniors missed out, we may be able to get a decent player/s in the PSD and rookie draft.

... there should be no bagging in years to come 

Or at least until after lunch

nothing wrong with his kicking IMHO, most be something off-field

If you want to know what the long delay was before pick 18, this would be my guess:

Francis Jackson told us that of the players expected to be taken between 2-17 his favorite of them was Selwood.
He even called him his 'lovechild' but lamented that he wouldn't be around @ 19.

Well guess what...he was! The thing that pains me is he would have been ours IF we didn't trade away for McMahon

Im happy with our 3 selections, but adding Selwood in would have made me overjoyed.

How does this sound?

"Putt taps the ball down to Foley who is tackled and gets the quick handpass away to Cotchin who breaks the pack has a run and kicks a low accurate pass to Deledio on the lead 35 out directly in front. Goal in the first 10 seconds!!!"

 

EDIT: Taken from the call of the 2011 AFL Grand Final BTW. God I love my time machine.

Tigerliscious except it should read like this
Putt beats Kruezer in the ruck ball down to Foley on to Cotchin who leaves Judd in his wake and kicks a low accurate pass to Deledio on the lead 35 metres out.

2011 Grand Final sounds like a great time frame RROFO

hard to be unhappy with what we selected. im really happy but i was thinking exactly what u just said.
i wonder if miller and co would be thinking about it too. i guess time will tell

sellwood will be a gun. will mcmahon?

Sorry, but Kruezer didn't make it and was delisted in 2010, BIG disappointment. Judd was never the same player without Cousins and Kerr. As consolation Carlton have the priority pick in the 2011 draft but have lost Murphy and Gibbs to other clubs.

mt is just relieveing himself lol

   

Just happy the club didn't try to be too clever and addressed our needs while getting the best available kid at each pick.

Cotchin (midfielder)
Rance (KP defender)
Putt (ruckman/key forward)

Is it enough for Richmond though?  For the 2005 season we had 12 new players; 2006 we had 8 new players; 2007 we had 9 new players and this coming season we have 5 so far.  Quality rather than quantity?
