1- By the end of 2017 only 4 player from our 2015 list will still be on our list.
2- Cost vs reward Palmer will be the bargain recruit of the year (even better than Mitchell vs pick88)
3- Cripps and Gibbs AA (Gibbs still traded to Adelaide for Adelaides first in 2017 and 2018 2nd)
4- Pickett (will be a superstar and number 1 in the AFL for metres gained) and Cunningham to play on the wings and after a full preseason Summer to play as a HBFer.
5- finals in 2018 after a massive trade period in 2017.
6- Jaksch has a good year at Full forward.

Our best 22 by the end of 2016.

B Simpson Weitering Plowman
HB Docherty Marchbank Sumner
C Pickett Cripps Cunningham
HF Curnow McKay Palmer
F Silvagni Jaksch Wright
R Kreuzer Murphy Gibbs
INT Smedts Boekhorst Curnow Pick5

*Byrne out of the team because of injury.
 
Is Ben Griffiths still on their list? He's a better option than Vickery by a long long way... In fact BT, you and I are better options than Ty.... Leaving will be his greatest contribution to Richmond.

Worst footballer ever !

Ugh, can't believe I'm even discussing those delusional campaigners...
... except when he plays us. :oops:
 
1- By the end of 2017 only 4 player from our 2015 list will still be on our list.

Docherty, Cripps, Murphy, Kreuzer, Gibbs, E Curnow, Boekhorst, Byrne, Sheehan, Buckley, Graham, Simpson, Jaksch, Jones, Thomas, Casboult, White, Armfield, Rowe.

That is 15 players to be traded, delisted or retired by the end of next year. Which 4 are safe?

IMO there is only 3 that are 100% safe Murphy, Cripps and Docherty the fourth will be either Curnow or Byrne or Boekhorst. I think Kreuzer will look at free agency, Gibbs will try to be traded to adelaide, Simpson, Thomas, Rowe and Armfield will retire and the rest will be delisted.

I think we will do something very unexpected and win maybe 5 of our first 10, only to then drop off with the youngsters finding it tougher and barely get another win for the rest of the season.

I remembered this comment when our season finished but at the time could not remember in which thread it was posted.

Great prediction!
