Hey Mr Celebrity.

Can you write some more about the Richmond kids?

Your stuff about the Geelong kids is a bit predictable. You've gone to the well too many times.

But you got any more hits like when Tom Brown was worth an $800k contract? That was top notch.

If you really didn't agree with what I post then you wouldn't have to make stuff up about it. So you must be a major fan.

It is important to be nice, but it is sure nice to be important. :cool:

So these would be guys worth $800k+ in the current salary cap. DeKoning will probably get there. The rest are no good things. Richmond have a 25yo(Bolton), 24yo(Balta), already in that price range, and a 21yo(Gibcus) likely to get there, and now 20yo(Brown) looking like he could be a top class defender.

This right here. This was the good stuff!

I don't really understand why Brown signed just a 2 year extension. If he was looking like $800k+ after 4 games surely he'd been in line for a Mac Andrew contract now.

So Bolton who's out of there, Gibcus who can't get on the park, and Brown who is yet to take the next step.

A lot of pressure on Balta's shoulders next year and beyond....

Oh ok, "looking like he COULD be a top class defender" clearly means "is worth $800k" to you.

You are not alone. Plenty of others with limited comprehension skills. :)

Imagine the pressure on SDK. He's the only player we've got that's even in consideration to be that good. And we won't even pick him.

Do you see a Larkey or LDU in Richmond's 20-22 year olds?

Or even a Simpkin or Zurharr or Xerri?

If Richmond end up with 5 players at that level from their current kids they'll be unbelievably happy given how they're trending.

Absolutely, I see tremendous talent on that Richmond list. Bolton, Baker, Rioli are all exceptional young players, I wouldn’t sleep on the criminally underrated Jack Graham either.

Sure, the rest of the list is a dumpster fire, but with those 4 guys, Tigs fans should feel very confident in their future.
 
Just had a bit of a look back through some of this thread. What a doozy!

Can we get a poll on what the best moment of the thread was? Was it:

A) Tylar Young being described as "one of the best defenders in the league".

B) A poster saying Holmes would not have been best 22 for Richmond's team in 2023 despite being a key member of a flag team in 2022.

C) Jacob Koschitzke being compared favorably to Cam Mooney.

D) The recruitment of Taranto and Hopper not being a delusional last shot at success by Hardwick but actually a smart way to accelerate the rebuild by complementing players like Bolton, Baker and Rioli.

I think we need to put this thread on ice for a year or 10.

New thread: comparing the rebuilds of Collingwood and Geelong
