Recommitted Sydney Stack [has re-signed with Richmond]

[DontArgue4]

Jack Ross is a good kid as well.

absolutely, to be honest if he didnt get injured i reckon we would be just as excited about him

his debut against port when we were severely undermanned was huge

You can believe whatever you like, I'm not going to continue to go round in circles and repeat myself. Media outlets reported those issues you mentioned because they were either public knowledge already or a crime has been committed, it's a bit hard for them to report "AFL draft hopeful Sydney Stack spotted snorting MDMA in Northbridge nightclub toilet". If your naive enough to believe players don't use drugs just because there has been no official reporting of it, all the best to you. Anyone denying Stack has off-field issues that have included drugs, booze and delinquent behaviour is free to do so, I prefer to live in the real world...

18 clubs overlooked him in 2 drafts with only Richmond not putting him in the 'too hard basket' at the 11th hour. He was a top 20 talent, maybe better. Does that sound to you like it was just a matter of being a bit late to training and being a bit of a larrkin?

Im happy we gave him a shot because what a steal of the draft. So excited to see him play this year.

Not even a steal of the draft.

A steal after both the draft and the rookie draft.

Yeah very true

Richmond should have been asked to give back their 1st & 2nd round picks this year after grabbing Stack & Pickett for free

Surely the AFL needs to even things up and cant just let the premiers snatch talent like this for free

Tigers did give away picks in the 2019 draft.

Bradon Ellis FA compensation pick?

Bradon Ellis FA compensation pick?

Well that was a nothing pick but in the end it become the academy kid from brisbane Will Martyn , So lets see what he ends up becoming but we have enough Ellis replacement players on the list.

Is Stack allowed to be paid more than 2nd year draftee wages for the first year of his contract?

Should be.

If I find out our recruiters passed up on this bloke, I'm going to dump the biggest truckload of chicken shit on their doorsteps.

Apparently they were looking to get him but he said he's going with Balme

All recruiters passed him up twice, the Richmond guys had the knackers in the end.

In fairness to Carlton they also invited him to train with them after he was over looked in the Rookie Draft

I understand this. I'm not particularly talking about the national or even rookie draft, but more so post these recruiting avenues.

They literally got him for nothing. It's like having a free hit at one of the most talented kid in the country. I'd take him over anyone in last year's draft, in a heart beat. Biased carlton fans aside, I'd say most people would too.

Most of us aren't biased, we're just happy with what we got and unhappy that we missed out on Stack.

Nothing wrong with a free hit.

 

[LordLucifer]

Not that enamoured with this Stack kid, comes across as more of a 'highlight reel' to me than a full four-quarter player.

There’s another “Sydney Stack” from WA who didn’t get drafted this year for pretty much similar reasons.

Kids name is Rhai Arn Cox.

Even though I'm happy he plays for us he would of been good for your list.

Young and dumb is a big cost for the poor kid. Hope he matures and comes good for future drafts.

When you say another "sydney stack" you are talking about not being drafted / indigenous / Talented ?

But if you are referring to a 18 year old indigenous kid that has talent that didnt get drafted then i would be asking why ? Is it family issue's , work ethic ? Drugs ? ability ?

Why do you rate Rhai Arn Cox as another Stack ?
if he was another sydney stack he would be currently training with an AFL club , I think people look too much at these indigenous kids that are small 'ish and think they are similar but very few are.
