Been wanted Mutaz rookied for a while now.

Dunno about draft Taylor at P3-4, this guy looks like a very useful medium back.

Richmond Rant / Re: Rookie Draft

« Last post by one-eyed on Today at 02:00:21 AM »

Foxfooty.com.au takes a look at another ten prospects from around the state leagues who could be in the mix for this year’s draft as mature-age recruits.

HARRY SCOTT

Harry Scott could be another success story out of Richmond’s VFL program. Scott caught fire in the final ten or so weeks of the season, becoming an integral part of the Tigers’ on-ball brigade. Scott is a hard-working midfielder who runs all day and does some of his best work at the coalface. He’s clean with the ball in hand and makes good decisions. Scott averaged 21.1 disposals, 4.4 tackles and 4.1 marks per match in 2025 to receive a state combine invite, where he ranked second in the agility test with a time of 8.07 seconds. Scott is the son of former Tiger Allister, who played 19 games for Richmond back in the early 1990s.

MUTAZ EL NOUR

Yet another Richmond VFL player to feature on this list, El Nour has been around the mark for a while now. El Nour has great aerial capabilities and loves flying for marks, while he’s also a handy ball user out of the back half. El Nour is very athletic and reads the play well, but injuries have hurt his chances of making it onto an AFL list so far. He finally had a better run of things in 2025 and thrived, averaging 17.1 disposals, 4.8 marks and over eight intercepts per game.

MASSIMO RASO

The young Tiger had some interest ahead of the mid-season draft but ultimately didn’t find his way onto an AFL list. Raso is an exciting small forward who is quick, dynamic inside 50 and clean at ground level. A product of the Western Jets, Raso has an uncanny knack to find the goals and is a strong crumber. Raso averaged 12.6 disposals, 1.3 goals and four score involvements a game, but has signed with Werribee for 2026.

Personally would be blown away if we draft Taylor. Fine player but it's not in our needs IMO.

Balta, Gibcus, Trainor, Miller. That's a back 4 for the next 7 years with a Balta replacement FA when Balta gets too old to compliment Gibcus and Trainor in peak years. I can't see Taylor playing much best 22 for a while unless we shift Balta or Gibcus forward, which I really hope we do not do.

Robey and Grlj for me.

Richmond Rant / Re: Richmond AFLW team [merged]

« Last post by TigerLand on Yesterday at 11:25:32 PM »

Only 4 changes. Im honestly not surprised. This program is honestly amateurish. Not because of gender but because of the diabolical decisions that continue to be made by this wing of the club. 4 changes. My god.

Grace is not a perfect player but I'll die on the hill she fits in as a depth player in a top 4 side without blinking. At her age it's crazy to delist her, as I said if 10 go with her in a clean out I can accept a new era at the un with a heap of fresh players. But somehow. Same coach, same players minus the player who was rather by coaches as best player for Rich and the last 2 games ahead of Conti.. mind boggling.

I genuinely want the AFLW team to work and be successful but honestly there is only so much energy you can out towards supporting it when diabolically stupid decisions continue to be made and by people that simply don't seem qualified or experienced to do so.

Id welcome Grieves getting more opportunities, that can easily be done by playing behind Grace. We can simply rotate and modify roles without delisted our highest ranked players. Id consider that to be flexibly tactical coaching. Be interesting to see what that looks like one day for our AFLW side.
