worst trade  and one of the worst players.

Geez he was horrible when with us yet played in a flag go figure. Such a limited player even for a ruckman.

Like us i reckon there are plenty of recruiters out there who are seduced by club success thus rating players much higher than they actually are.
I know club supporters certainly do.

I really lost hope in ralphsmith this year. Complete defensive liability. Looks flashing running fwd kicking goals etc but offers nothing the other way and we already have 2 guys like that in banks and short

What it shows is just how big a leg up the northern clubs have been given with their acadamies.
Time to do away with them altogether or clubs have access to all areas and like the draft depending on where you finish get first pick on who they take into their acadamies.

That graph should also give number of players taken in each area and an average seeing as clubs have entered the comp at different times.

Vlastuin - Miller - Gibcus/Trainor
Banks/Smith - Balta - Clarke/Brown  Definately looking to improve the running backs and i think 3 tall defenders will be it the way the game is.

Campbell - McAuliffe - Brown/Clarke.  we just have to find other options our wings have been ordinary for  too long and our mids too slow.

Algar - Faull - Hotton. Most definately the future and we must pump games into them
Mansell - Lynch - Armstrong/Sims. Not sure Nigel is a long term keeper but he is best 22 be nice if we can ease Lynchy out of team

Nankervis - Lalor - Prestia. Combined with the mids our best and it addresses genuine pace issues

Hopper - Taranto - Smillie - Trainor - ND#3 - Broad - ND#4 - Lefau. Lots of midfield rotations adding Hotton and Algar into rotations.

Hopefully we are looking past guys like Ross, Short, HRS - Rioli - Dow - Sonsie  If things are going well injury and improvement hope they are phasing out Prestia Broad and Lynch and all those who have had a fair crack at it like most of the above who have severe limitations..

@CalTwomey
Trade deal agreed for Will Brodie to land at Port Adelaide ✅ Paperwork has been lodged.

The Power will trade pick 103 to Fremantle for the midfielder

Blockbuster trade.

There's an article on  the AFL website explaining the logic behind this trade. Port wanted the player and Freo needed to dump salary to free up cap space and create an extra space on their list.

Pick won't get used but it's a win_win for both Clubs

Richmond young gun Sam Lalor opens up on ‘tough’ injury-plagued debut AFL season

Richmond young gun Sam Lalor is back at training with a refreshed mindset after an injury-ravaged debut season that tested him both physically and mentally.

The 19-year-old’s whirlwind debut season came to an abrupt end in round 17 when he tore a troublesome hamstring and ultimately required surgery.

That injury came minutes into his return match from the same injury.

Lalor admitted the mental toll of multiple injuries was tough at first, but experienced teammates helped him through.

“It is frustrating, you want to be playing every week and to do the same injury three times is pretty tough,” he told 7NEWS.

“Rehab is a pretty tough place at a footy club.

“At first I was pretty flat but since then I’ve kind of kept my head up and all the older boys have helped me through it as well.”

Lalor enjoyed some time overseas in the off-season, but is back training hard ahead of what he hopes will be a big 2026.

“I went to New Zealand which is nice but back training now, pretty full on,” Lalor said.

“There’s a few boys around the club which is good to see so we’re working hard.”

As the face of Richmond’s rebuild, the No.1 pick’s debut against Carlton — where he kicked two goals and collected 18 touches — put Richmond minds at ease, though not his own.

“The first game was probably, I didn’t feel that much pressure for some reason,” he said.

“That was probably the one where I just wanted to go out and enjoy and played alright in that game so that probably made a bit more pressure on myself, a bit hard on myself at times.”

The young star has also had to adapt to life in the spotlight.

“Yeah walking down the street is a lot different but I’m used to it now, it’s all part of it,” Lalor said.

“I don’t cop it near as bad as some of our players but it is different going from school into a full-time job at one of the biggest clubs in Australia so I’ve loved every minute of it.”
