Player Watch #29 Jasper Alger

[Michaels]

This is a ripping pick.

Quality happens when he touches the ball.

One of the highest rated 'goal sneaks ' of this crop.

Maybe my judgement is cloudy being 12am but I could see him getting a few games next year.

The Fox Footy Phantom draft had GWS taking him at pick 19...and now we have him at pick 58. Remarkable!

Welcome YOUNG man….. ENJOY!!!

Loved this trade

I was looking at Dattoli highlights and was thinking why ?
when he was being linked to Richmond at 23

This kid is a ripper

So glad to see the Tigers went back for him, his family are such staunch tiger supporters and it goes back to his great great grandmother. I can imagine the family's' despair after the pundits had him going first round (rated 22 overall) and favoured to go to his beloved Tigers. To see Richmond left with one last pick at 89 and club after club passing on him, but his Tiger recruiting team were watching him until they could wait no longer and traded back into the draft just to collect their new young Tiger cub. He comes from an exceptionally talented football heritage and will be a boon to our club.

Welcome to Richmond Jasper.

On which side of the family?

UpTheGutz I think you are the stats guru for APS games, is my memory serving me correctly that this guy kicked 7 or 8 in a game this year?

I can't remember where I used to find the goalkickers/best players lists.

Edit: found it



Also had a couple of 5's and a 4. Yze's teammate

I think every single one of our players were at some point in the top 30. Great drafting by Richmond

 

[Madtiger2006]

Thank god we grabbed another forward

His highlights show he out thinks his opponent (so we will have to see how that holds up against better oppo), and has a nice relaxed set up goal. Likes a cuddle too, so he hunts.

I'm deleting this post and moving it into the correct thread. Sorry.

 

[SumTingWong]

Interested that the Dad said that Richmond contacted Jasper only days after he did his injury in May, to say that we would still be taking him in the draft. Just shows you the confidence we had in this kid and that choosing him on the night, might have been a surprise to may, but was certainly pre-planned.

Jasper must be a star in the making. We didn't even do that for Lalor.

Where did you hear that?

Sorry -Wrong player It was Taj's Dad on SEN this morning. I've placed the post in the correct thread now.

Sometimes I'm a genius...

I'm not sure we've actually picked him as we haven't heard from him or seen his family and friends reaction.

Great goal sense and good overhead.

 

[Ancient Tiger]

As someone stated he is bottom aged and thus is one of the youngest players in the draft. That means he has heaps of development left in him to improve even more. Inspired pick up.

 

[Dr Tigris]

Can't believe we got him at 58. For a pick we're unlikely to use. So we got a first round quality small forward for free - effectively.

I had not gone to bed

Just woke up now

Good Morning Richmond World

That's the amazing thing; we had him down for our last pick of the first round but when North came at us with their Future First, it was an offer we couldn't refuse. Then when no one else took him and we were nearing the end of the draft, knowing the Pies were in the market for a small forward, we pounced. So we got a player in the late fifties for someone we were willing to take in the first round.

Amazing!
