AFL Player 26: Archer May - Re-signed to 2028!

[Andyy]

Has your vfl side got a gun small forward by any chance? Durham and May are both guns

Massimo Raso

And I also like the look of Mohammed Yassine but he can be a bit selfish.

 

[SpeckieMcVeigh]

Massimo Raso, big chance at end of the year imho

Midfielder (at Coates League) turned small fwd at VFL level and it shows.

Gets up the ground in a way that Gresham’s (best games) can

I was shocked he wasn't taken in the MSD to be honest.

Jay Dalhause (Weribee), Tobyn Murray (Geelong VFL), Josh D'Intinastano (Coburg) has improved his goals output. The leading three small fwds in the VFL imho

The leading 3 in the Richmond VFL side?

To be drafted?

Harry Scott (mid), Massimo Raso (fwd) and then throw a blanket over Sean Lai (wing), Sam Toner (fwd), Austin Johnson (wing)

No I'm just wondering what relevance the 3 you named above have to the question "does the Richmond VFL side have a gun small forward?"

Gotta post something

It’d be a shame to waste a perfectly good 3hr toilet break by not posting anything from the shitter

 

[naraku]

I thought he was good all things considering.

 

[boncer34]

Better than Wright

 

[jannissary]

was getting his arms chopped all night, at least he didn't turn around and belt someone

 

[bommer16]

He’s going to be very good for us.

Hope to see this bloke higher up the ground this week

 

[Vindicater]

Can he ruck for 10-15 mins a game do we think?

I see he has taken some forward fifty rucks but I wonder how he goes in the middle and around the ground in that role.

He was a ruck as a junior so I assume he’d be able to play as a relief ruck

Awesome. Allows us to move on Wright for a more mobile third tall type.

Honestly both Caddy and May are quite mobile for their size.

If McMahon shows that he belongs at AFL level, once our ruck health improves, we don't really have a place for Wright on the roster long term. His current niche is being able to double as a backup ruck as well as be a key forward.

Blakiston is a year or two younger but he's actually mobile enough to play down back as well as be a backup ruck if needed. And I feel like with Hayes missing the start of next season and Reid being injury prone, our list makeup needs the backman/ruck hybrid more than it needs a forward/ruck.

Yep,

I think May will be our Hawkins type that takes any bounce in the fwd 50.

 

[ghostdog]

Might be worth May going to the VFL and doing some work. Take some marks, kick some goals. Build some momentum and return.
Give Wright, MacMahon and Caddy a run together.

 

[Yoda_]

Im not at all disappointed he was committed. I know hes young, he had that good game few weeks back and the Caddy / May partnership needs to build. I would like to see how the Caddy and McMahon partnership goes tomorrow night. Dont think it's going to kick a winning score but just to see the leading patterns and how they work is exciting. Caddy looks much better up the ground, McMahon deep inside fifty.

Hope they let him out before pre season starts

 

[Happyskeret]

I heard Derm say that he can kick the ball as far as Sav Rocca can.

He kicked the ball last week and it went a mile.

Is going to be a weapon and will only get stronger.

Yeah he definitely shows flashes here and there for what he could become.

He also said he eats a 9 egg omelette...
