Kane Johnson.

Being a Richmond fan I'm expecting big things from him next year as long as he can stay injury free. Living in SA I've seen him playing week in week out for the Crows and rate him really highly in one of the leagues best midfields.
Now at Richmond the midfield isn't quite as strong, however do you Crows supporters think he could take the step up to be a number 1 midfielder and handle getting a heavy tag week in week out.
What about this is it possible he could end up maybe not next season but a future one could you see him perhaps even finishing Top 5 in the Brownlow.

Do you mean that you're a Richmond fan rather than a Richmond thing??

Kane will have to adjust somewhat because with Adelaide he drew the 4th best mid-fielder after Macca, Goody and Roo. With Richmond he is more likely to draw the number 1 or number 2 mid-fielder, but even more likely the number 1 tagger.

But he is a very very good footballer and he will adjust to this, and become a leader at Richmond. Could end up winning their B&F at some stage in his career there . As for top 5 in the Brownlow - nope - because his hard working style is not a real vote catcher with the umps.

Have a look at his game against Melbourne in the finals last year.
Pretty good he was.

Actually since he left for Richmond Iv re watched that magic game and I have to damn near concede WE WILL MISS HIM

Sugar is a gun player & will adjust to being the Tigers' #1 midfielder. Doesn't really lack anything as he goes in hard to get the ball, & has fantastic vision & skills when using the ball. Ottens, Richo & Staff should be much happier this year.

I miss my little sugar kane already , but he will be a real benefit to Richmond. He has some guts and will bring a bit of hardness into there side, his injury worries won't go away though so he will have to work extra hard to overcome those. I don't think old softy (Richo) will spit the dummy this year, I reckon he has been given the strong word by the club. As for Ottens, he very nearly wasn't the man he used to be after his little accident at home he was nearly the first female to play in the AFL!
