[Madtiger2006]

Excited about him. Hope he kicks 5

 

[OzBomber]

Went to school with him so have been following his progress. Really looking forward to him playing his first game. Hope he does well!

How has his form been in the VFL? Only time I went and saw him he got injured in the first quarter against Frankston.

Be interesting to see him play but what about Foley and why was concave dropped

 

[mellowyellow]

so whats he done at vfl level to warrant the call up

And good luck to the lad on the weekend

Good luck to him and I am glad to see him there as I think we still need another tall forward to come through, but have to laugh at the call of not gifting games.

He had one acceptable VFL game and he is straight in lol

Bit more than acceptable i would thought, all reports had it , he had ball on a string last week, marking everything that came his way

Congrats Todd! I was impressed watching him play for Coburg last week. My only concern is his fitness however, it shouldn't be a big factor if they limit his playing time.

Was impressed by him in the NAB Cup. Just seems to move to the right spots and for a baby, that's a very good trait to have so early.
Good luck Todd. Eat em alive.

Typical Richmond painting themselves into a corner with silly & reactionary public decrees before the start of seasons that don't need to be made just to appease the ferals and keep our name in the media. (this one mainly coming on the back off the hysterical outcry last year over Tuck.) This is a long-term selection and step in the right direction IMO.

 

[Tzatziki_Man]

Good luck young champ, hope he plays well and we win.

 

[rfctigerarmy]

He hasn't been great for Coburg... 'ball on a string'... please.

Purely a decision for the future, I reckon. See what we've got and what he can do.

Good luck Rocket Man!

 

[IDGAF]

Good luck Rocket Man!

i prefer this

 

[Dragonss]

im excited. if he is the match winner i'll be forever happy

 

[tugga]

Might be best to save the merits on his selection to the game-day thread please.
One of our own is about to make his debut for the yellow and back and this thread should be just for that.
Thanks.

 

[IDGAF]

Good luck Rocket Man!

maybe we can consider this his coming out ?

 

[Bazzar]

I remember that great one handed pick-up, side steps through heavy traffic, then off loaded a handball to set up the winning goal against the Hawks in the NAB cup. Looked classy.

His nickname should be Reggie.

 

[smasha]

Congrats Toddy Elton.
Eat those dobbers alive!

 

[Bird Man]

He will get the vest ... Which is a shame cause he would need at least a quater warm up so I could see him coming in at the third for miller

 

[Bird Man]

Apparently this kid is a top ten ruck/forward but fell due to GWS and GC
