Welcome Nigel

 

[CASEYS9420]

There are now 7 indigenous players on the list which is the most ever.

Shane Edwards
Daniel Rioli
Shai Bolton
Sydney Stack
Marlion Pickett
Maurice Rioli Jr
Rhyan Mansell

The Indigenous boys absolutely suit our current chaos style, rewarding speed, flair and x-factor. Mansell looks like a strong mark too.

 

[DontArgue4]

Great pick up

Gallucci will be next imo

 

[fargothegreat]

Great pick up

Gallucci will be next imo

I hope they keep a spot free for midseason.

 

[beema limapep]

Absolute gun. Will not dissapoint.

 

[Dunger]

Looks like he'll slot straight in to our back line

 

[Nostradumbass]

Are we calling him Nigel?

 

[tiger_tough]

I hope they keep a spot free for midseason.

Houli will do a Grigg and retire when he tears his calf off the bone early

 

[Muddiemoose]

Look forward to seeing him out there. Watching those highlights on the clubs website reminds me a bit of Baker.

Was gonna say the same thing
Very similar to baker
Hard at the contest and follows up with 2nd and 3rd efforts

Looks like he is a pretty good decision maker and can hit a team mate by foot as well

Suits our system

 

[VB_longneck]

welcome mansell lifestyles

 

[Al Heimer]

Well at least he talks like Dusty does

[Dr Tigris]

Looks like another Baker type. Hard skilled athletic, smaller.

We do really well with this sort of player.

Happy

how do these kids train with a certain club ? Say that Colonwood , Carloton , hawthorn and Richmond all want him to try out... what happens then ? does the kid choose a club to try out at ?

we could really exploit this

i think yes, but any club could recruit him. so if hes training with us but collingwood walks in the door and offers him 500k, he can just sign with them. effectively free agents.

[Lsta062]

A very Richmondy pick. And yes, that’s actually a good thing.

Welcome Rhyan!

 

[sregit]

Fried Egg ?

He'll be scrambling for the last spot.

 

[Lsta062]

Richmond recruiting manager Matt Clarke said Mansell, who also won three senior flags with Launceston in the TSL, had been on the club’s radar for several years.

“We have always liked his stuff because he suited what we like in a player; super competitive, physical, (and with) really good speed,” he explained.

“He has Richmond qualities and that ability to come in hard and tackle.

Yep my initial thoughts were a slightly taller Liam Baker clone. Hard at the pill, seems to have some good composure.

Welcome Rhyan

 

[tugga]

I like it.
Replacement for Oleg and Houli if injured or retires in the next year or so.

 

[SplintWhisky]

Are we calling him Nigel?

For sure. Now we just need to pressure him into growing the same majestic moustache.


Guess this appointment is GG for Eggs though.
