Richmond Rant / Re: Richmond are looking at a four to five year rebuild says Matthew Lloyd (3aw)
« Last post by Buddysucks on Today at 02:43:07 PM »
Putting aside my Richmond bias, the AFL need to get more creative to help clubs rebuild more quickly. 3-4 draft picks per year doesn’t get it done in a reasonable timeframe. Especially now that front running clubs can stay stronger for longer with free agency. A mid season draft would help reinvigorate a clubs list (even just player swaps rather than draft picks). And, might reinvigorate a few careers if there is a chance to go from a cellar dwelling club to a finals contender, or for a young kid to expedite his AFL career by getting a quicker taste at the higher level.

I’d also like to see AFL contracted players be able to nominate for the current mid-season draft. Obviously there would need to be some tight guidelines but, asking clubs to ‘protect’ xx number of player leaving xx number of players available for the taking.

Just throwing ideas out there, what are people’s thoughts?

I also really liked push up when he was a forward. Quick and very strong in the air for a guy his size. don’t remember his kicking for goal or even field kicking being too shabby either.

I loved push up - he was one of my favourites in challenging times .

However he was a mature pick up - 23 years old when he made his debut.

And the two seasons he kicked over 20 goals , Jake was in his late 20s .

I think Mansell has some similar traits to King - it’s definitely not Mansell’s job to be carrying the forward line .

Lloydy on the 'sad' scenario surrounding Dustin Martin ahead of his 300th in the weeks to come, and what the Tigers can do to get the best out of their champion.

Push up actually kicked goals and could get some serious air! He’s also strong enough to waterboard Richo. I actually do think what would have happened if he was played as a forward from game 1

No hard feelings if he wants to play elsewhere but I'm hoping he retires a 1 club champion.

Can't wait to see the doco.

His 2017 highlights still give me tingles in my crotch.
