2nds Talls

[Cotcho]

Talls looking great in the resies. Few kg's and some more game time and hopefully these lads will be pushing for selection.

Reggie Dwight taking contested marks, nailing shots & even giving a bit of lip!

Fletch 2 looks the goods!

 

[THE_GUN]

Elton is alos looking very very built

 

[MR]

Elton is tracking along nicely.

 

[Dragonss]

MY BOY ELTON!!!

 

[TOOs_Finest]

Elton is tracking along nicely.

Any updates on his kicking?

 

[Harmichael]

Any updates on his kicking?

Going by those highlights his kicking has been updated from "shit" to "not shit".

 

[LegendakaRICHO]

i wanted to see griffs goal

 

[tunksy]

Astbury to come back through coburg too, aiming for next week I believe.

 

[tunksy]

Elton is tracking along nicely.

Thinks he's under the radar atm due to us being so focused on our other talks eltons kicking for goal seems to have improved

 

[TigerTime88]

ELTON LOOKS LIKE HE HAS BUILT UP. RECKON HE WILL END UP BEING A MONSTER!!! Stoked to see him kicking goals and taking big grabs.

THEN NEK MINUTE

MCBEAN kicks 4....not bad to have a couple of 200cm forwards playing great footy in the VFL along Astbury to come back.

Did i mention the 200cm giant down the other end who can take a grab and kicks the ball 70m.

Oh and that sh!t truck Edwards kicking 4...mehhhh

 

[DrMike]

McBean reminds me a bit of Jack

 

[TOOs_Finest]

McBean reminds me a bit of Jack

Well he's got Daniher covered

 

[Frank Grimes]

MrBean is one player I'd like to keep an eye on. He's probably too light to play in the seniors but once he puts on muscle and hopefully keeps his effectiveness below the knees and in the air, I think he could turn out to be an absolute steal from last years draft.

 

[blxx]

lets just wait and see. i know i should revel in it but, i feel uneasy about all this mcbean hoopla.

reminds me of the way we talk up young australian tennis players every january...

 

[THE_GUN]

I'm Pretty confident that in another 3-4 years time Mr McBean will become a household name in every tiger supporters home.
Pace
Height
Agility
Football Brain


= Very Good Footballer

 

[Dr Awkward]

Is he likely to develop into a full time ruck or a forward/ruck like Vickery? Certainly seems tall enough for a full time ruck but if he's going to be kicking bags of goals...

 

[Madtiger2006]

Astbury to come back through coburg too, aiming for next week I believe.

Foley will be back next week too according to mcguane. The Coburg 22 will be all afl listed Richmond players soon

 

[juss]

Elton did look very good, a few more weeks like that and he'd be pushing for senior selection, looks now to have the size to compete at AFL level and goal kicking looked good too.

McBean I'm not sure if he has the frame to be a ruck. These days you really need to be 100kg+ to be a full time ruck, I don't know if he will fill out to that, it will be a number of years anyway if he does. As a CHF/CHB though definetely could be an option as a big mobile player, who can relieve in the ruck. Still very much a project player and don't expect him to debut this year but good signs early.

 

[City Search]

I think the new ruck rules will help McBean if he's ever going to go full time

 

[rado]

Is there now no limit on the number of afl players in a vfl senior team? Saw 18 Richmond players lining up last week but I was under the impression there was a limit of about 12?

There's no limit. It all depends on the agreement you have with your aligned club.

 

[WATIGE]

Isn't there a limit depending on wether you are playing against another aligned club (as many as you want) or an un-aligned club (limited to 11 or 12?)
