2025 AFL Draft

@ElliotSinJin
It seems pretty unlikely that Kellaway will be bid on prior to pick 38. I have not seen him in any media top 40 rankings. If a big is made after pick 37 Richmond could literally use pick 99 to match if they chose to.

@ElliotSinJin
I think he definitely gets to us. In a recent interview he said only two clubs had interviewed him outside of richmond

Apart from his name, is he good? Remember Chris Naishes boys were a bust

Plus don’t talk about Disco Bourke

aj, for whatever reason you seem unable or willing to post the links for all the quotes you are posting (copyong) from X (Twitter)

As the @xxxx are not showing as hyperlink that people can click and go to the original post then at a minimum you need to say where you are sourcing them from. Eg "from X"

Below are the 2 links for the 2 quotes above you've copied from X

Cdt

Have to say I’m normally happy to back in the powers that be with the clubs drafting as they clearly know better than a punter like myself, but I’d be so disappointed if we take cdt

I actually think k we will trade if he's available. Can see a club giving up a lot for him. Our program for a long time has never been tailored to developing rucks. Even KPF we haven't really developed anyone apart from Jack since Richo. We've generally traded in Ruckman. Soldo, Simmons, Stafford, Nank. Id be surprised if we committing to developing a tier 1 ruck with a high pick.

Drafted  3× AFL premiership player, All-Australian etc. at pick 2   brad ottens.

…. And traded him lol

[Assange Tiger 😎]

Yeah and he was also drafted nearly 30 years ago. Great player but.

Good point, since Otto so 20 odd years.

[ajGreen]

Riewoldt was drafted 20 odd years ago and formed the bookends of the dynasty with Rance.

If the club is high on CDT then I'd welcome him.

On paper hed compliment lalor smillie hotton very nicely  + good forward

[Shammo80]

Do we actually think Grlj is up to AFL standards I've seen him play in the VFL the GC alot off kicks were in the back half and pretty basic ones to me just a thought i still think he is a risk specially at that high pick...
Robey has come along way his main games were this year against two average teams calder and jets but his GF was good and did get dropped earlier in the year from them to only come back in later in the year so he could be another risk taht high
 

[Andyy]

CDT could be the next Max/Ben King and chop out in the ruck, from what I've read.

Honestly if the club wants to have a go with him I'd be keen.

Maybe if Sims keeps growing and developing he and CDT can share ruck/forward roles. Faull and Armstrong the main key forwards.

Grab another mid this year, hit a FA next year like Butters.
Butters, Taranto, Hopper, Lalor, Hotton, KMac2. Looks a bit better.
