Max Holmes will be the best player in the AFL in 5 years time

[Cleansweep17]

Given Richmond are about to trade 2 players each for multiple rd 1 picks including top 10 picks, and a 3rd player for a single rd 1 pick, the AFL eco-system seems to think a little differently to you on that subject. Mannagh's high rating is derived from 11 games of footy as a 26yo, ie right in his prime. Let's see how he looks after opposition teams have a bit of time to study him.

Oh lol he’s 26 what a potato

You never know. He might do what one of our other recent mid-20s debutants did and get worked out after winning 5 all Australian jackets

I think what we've really done is we've created a powerful sense of dread in the competition. All these other clubs? Dread. They feel it. They know it. They wear it like a cheap zoot suit.

Lol Mannagh couldn't even get a game for half the season. Maybe let him play a whole season before you go off quarter cocked. He has 10 career coaches votes.

He's been pretty good. Richmond could use someone like him right about now.

Everyone that isn't dusty is a potato to you.
Don't know how you're going to watch a Richmond game over the next decade then. May as well turn punt road oval into farmland before the 2025 season starts.

I wouldn’t mind that idea tbh. Geelong won’t win another flag again if they don’t have a monopoly on the country bumpinks.

He has been very good in the 11 matches he has played. His performance would get a game anywhere. But you would kind of hope that when you use a rd 2 draft pick on a 26yo. Let's see how he goes over full seasons when a bit more exposed though.

He is actually 27 was 26 when drafted.

Back to Max Holmes. The big question mark is his contested ball winning ability. And how he is going to handle getting more work put into him.

Guys, I think #RebuildWithAPrelim has finally broken Meteor and Sweepy....

 

[ferball]

Mannagh worked his way into the team later in the season. Now a genuine starter, where'd you find a gem like him from?

Werribee.

The joint is full of them.

Shaun really plays a lot like a 2017 Richmond small forward. I wonder where he learned the craft
