Player Watch Joe Richards

[Bear Nectar]

Maybe it’s the size. Maybe it’s the mature age aspect. Maybe it’s the past connection with McRae to Richmond. Maybe it’s the role. I’m not sure, but genuine Kain Lambert vibes from Richards. He will impact immediately at VFL level and based on where we’re at he’s the pick of the bunch for mine.

yeah I'm more excited about this one than Jakob

 

[Bianconeri]

Stupid to Pick in a Postion which is our Strongest

Since when was his position our strongest?

 

[Kirby]

Welcome Joe

Is he any relation to the Lou Richards linage

He’s Lou’s father

A short player has a tick more boxes than a taller play to be considered for a list spot and a mature ager gets scrutinised even further.

So based on that alone I’m happy with this pick.

Yep, Ben Reid is the coach of the Wangaratta magpies and won the premiership in the O&M this year

Apparently so as a number of other posters have mentioned it.

You know you can delete the 2nd part of this post. A little embarrassing because you’re stuck with it now, but I’m betting you’re going to be more embarrassed by the first part of this post.

 

[ThePheonix]

Joe Richards reminds me of our (Collingwood) Matthew Ryan from the 1980's

 

[TheBaron]

Welcome Joe. Collingwood have chosen wisely.

Well at least we’re picking small and quick players now,which is a change from the small and slow players we used to pick.I hope he goes well.Welcome,Joe.

You picked the reference in one.

 

[The Royal Sampler]

Well at least we’re picking small and quick players now,which is a change from the small and slow players we used to pick.I hope he goes well.Welcome,Joe.

Our future midfield likely includes Nick Daicos, Ed Allan and Reef McIness.

Bobby Hill on a wing.

Darcy Moore, Jack Crisp and John Noble down back.

Cannonball McCreery up forward.

We’re going to be ****ing lightning!

 

[manicpie]

Welcome joey, the Wang Wizard, enjoy your flag along with other recruits next year. It's a shame they didn't draft a big tall player to help protect you out there but somehow, I don't think you'll need it

 

[whiskeytown]

Welcome Joe

From the highlights I like your running, repeated efforts and attacking nature

Shame our interest got leaked out to the media… seems a perfect rookie pick

But the kid is lucky… he now gets a guarantee 2 years to make an impression

 

[Markfs]

evidently they expect him to grow 20cm and put on 20kg in the next two years...

 

[Horaceg]

Welcome, I like stories of guys who just kept at and now has a massive opportunity.

Why exactly ?

Welcome Joe. Unfortunately you need to play CHF for us next year in the VFL.

Looks like the half-forward version of John Noble

Good late speculative pic that could really surprise. Mature age, tore it up in a good comp. Knows how to get front and square at pace and take the crumb, kicks goals from everywhere. If he takes his chance he could light the forward line up as a crumbing small forward.

 

[KrispyKremePie]

If he’s born in 2000 how is he 23 years old

AFL app says he was born 23/11/1999
