Player Watch #35: Nathan Broad

[THE_GUN]

Think Lynch stays because him on the park actually helps the development of the forwards, even if he only plays 15-18 games.

Broad and Prestia I agree. We have plenty of guys who need minutes in their areas and can produce similar results even at this stage of their careers.

I think another 12 months for Lynch would be squeezing the lemon too far
Will be time to swin or sink for the KPF kids

 

[Sol23]

Broady is on the record for saying that he wants to finish his career in Perth.
I’d be surprised if he retired and it wasn’t injury related

No club is offering broad a contract

 

[Sol23]

He will play next week only because its in perth but i think we should use him sparingly after that with players like Gray , Trainor , Gibcus being given his game time.

But more importantly i think we need to say goodbye to Lynch , Prestia , Broad at the end of the year with their replacements in their 3rd year in 2027 not to mention saving of $1.5 mil in the cap that could be used

Lynch stays
Prestia should also go on and give hopper the ass.
Taranto to play forward

You know Hopper is not going anywhere why bother

They did 6 months ago

 

[Sol23]

If the club is serious he should be traded or delisted.
This is no joke! If his name wasn’t hopper he would be gone.

6 months is a long time in footy

6 months is a long time in footy

Well there’s 5 mths left in the season, hopefully we get to hear the flipping song

 

[The Vaucluse]

Gale could do us a favour and sign up Hopper for Tassie.

I thought the main reason he knocked back the NM offer was when no club wanted him in his early 20's, Richmond did, and gave him the opportunity to experience the ultimate 3 times.

As such, he felt an obligation to the club to stay and help the development of the young kids.

May end up in Perth playing WAFL again.

 

[crackertiger]

As much as I love Broady I cannot see him getting another contract at any club.

He is a treasured warrior for the club, so treading carefully here. I just feel it's very unlikely.

Pick 7 will do

Swan Districts maybe?

Yeah in their third year it’s time to sink or swim with no protection. What a bonkers take

If Lynch can keep his body together and wants to he will get another year

 

[Lord of the Wings]

He needs to be Capuano’d before the mid-season draft

 

[tigs2010]

Get there 10 mins before the bounce

 

[rfctigerarmy]

He stayed loyal to us, and he's doing fine.

Plays out the year with us.

Good onya Broady you're a star.

Good onya Broady you're a star.

He’s not doing fine, however, has been an absolute warrior for us and deserves to go out with dignity. I hope the club has/or is discussing the possibility of retiring before the mid season draft, obviously with full payout. If he wishes to see out the season then I’d accommodate him. His time is up but Richmond needs to tread carefully. If the club is trying to create mid season list spots we have several players that could be delisted(sacked) or retired.

 

[Hoos]

Pick 7 will do

Pick 97 will do.
