A young kid has shown he can play forward in limited time. Brilliant instincts. Loves the limelight and kicking goals. And we want to throw him back?
If we dont get many injuries next year our forwards and mids are stacked.
He may not get a game as a forward.
Larkey, CCJ, CZ, Thomas, JHF and JS are all ahead of him IMO.
He is in a group of players fighting it out for a bench spot.
This year we had JZ, Taz, Hall and Walker as veterans in defence.
If I was him id be asking for a go on HBF.
 
Nobody is considering the biggest hit we're taking with Tarrant going.

With Robbie, Majak and Higgins all leaving in the last 12 months our 2022 calendar sales could be left in tatters.

You can't expect Jy, LDU and Cunners (hey we need to cater to the rural markets too) to do all the heavy lifting when it comes to striking a pose.

The club needs to ditch the data driven approach to recruiting and start requesting draftees to submit professional portfolios.

Fantastic! We have depth. Players need to perform. If he isn’t playing AFL footy, he can work on his craft in the VFL.

Let him develop as a forward. He and Bull will become the Bash Brothers. Them around actual KPF’s getting “smaller” sized defenders will be a joy to watch in 2-3 years.

It’s why I was critical of the Sleevo acquisition. Great young talented player but a face only a mother could love. A cross against Brady in my book.

Yep, absolutely. Sicily, McGovern, Tarrant, a heap of gun defenders are forwards who go back. I would have waited a year or two more but I'd be happy to have him train with the defensive group this pre-season.
 
Well, that’s an interesting perspective. Corr predates Noble but I guess he, Stepho, and CCJ if it comes off are signs of Brady/North being happy to go to the market with generous longer offers for players they target. We’ll see if it bears fruit.

To KC‘s point, the club has also at the same time shown it’s ready to farewell older players rather than negotiate similarly generous packages for them. In that environment it feels like Brown, Higgins and Taz are likely not to be last to be lured elsewhere.
Last year Brown was poor, Higgo struggled out of position and this year Taz was okay but not his old self.

Goldy had a good year as did Jack and Cunners. Same with Hall. I think this has something to do with it.

I wanted us to look at Skinner when he got delisted by Brisbane. I wanted us to give Skinner a contract when he trained with us. I want us to give Skinner another go now.

Might work. Interesting that his agent mailed Brady with only this photo as their argument for him being listed.

JHF isn't even a north player yet. Neither is CCJ. I dunno who the **** IMO is either.

Ford wants to play midfield as well and had a game where he had 10 score involvements. I think he'll get a shot at that mid/foirward role and take it.
 
That's the thing then ferbs, why up our offer to 2 years then?
I dunno. Maybe cos they had planned on him staying and didn't want to mess up those plans.

Maybe he'd made his mind up last year (but decided to see out his contract) and it had nothing to do with the offer but the club wanted to keep him. Which could be why Noble made that comment months ago, they knew he wanted out but didn't want him to leave.

We didn’t see the offer (and fair enough). Could have been triggers, could have been a late acceptance that this year wasn’t a fair test and it was reasonable to extend to try to keep his experience around.

Honestly it wouldn’t shock me if the story he would earn less in his second year at Richmond was true. Big difference trying to squeeze an extra year at a club that clearly doesn’t see you in it’s longer-term plans to starting fresh at a club where you have been headhunted in and playing beyond the two years isn’t off the table.
 
19:16 – Robbie Tarrant set to join Richmond

His commentary around Ben Brown is rubbish, he went with it on sunday footy show as well.
In the end we offererd Ben in excess of what every other club was willing to offer him, he knocked it back and we pulled the deal.

Cmon down Eddie?, tommy p the boy next door look
 
We are about to have 3 top 4 pick midfielders. :)
There was talk of Jy being top 3 if he hadn't broken his leg in his draft year. But obviously the umps checked his draft number and decided not to vote for him.
