Didn't get a lot of ball but gee I loved his attack and got straight up after that hit. Beautiful pass late in the game too.

I reckon we have another player.

His attack was fantastic and that’s all you can ask for from a young key fwd

Some great signs already, got to a lot of contests and nearly clunked several contested marks. They’ll start sticking with time.

Harry will be such a gun. I tipped him to go Dees at Pick 6. We have a steal here.
Go Tigers!

One small step for Richmond

Putting team statistics aside, it's all about the future at Punt Road this year. Round one saw exciting games from Sam Lalor and Luke Trainor, but this week was Harry Armstrong's time to shine. The 18-year-old key forward lifted as the game progressed on Saturday, kicking his first AFL goal in the final term and then following it with a second. The Tigers' incredibly young forward line was understandably overwhelmed and will welcome Tom Lynch back with open arms next round, but Armstrong showed he is prepared to become the man when Lynch's time is done.

Is that the injured hammy? That’s a hell of an extension 1 week after what they’ve told us is a 12 week injury.

Was probably ready 4 weeks ago.  But we're being cautious

I remember a time as we tried to finish 9th and particularly at the end of the season trying to win games that other clubs were playing their 2’s , ruined a few players careers ,
I’m happy for the club to be conservative particularly when there no great value to play them until they are close to 100%
