Player Watch Welcome to Richmond - Oliver Hayes-Brown (Category B Rookie)

[Sir_Loin]

Ok great picture so we can work out from this just how tall OHB actually is, rather than the Balme engineered approximation being published.

We can see next to him are the goal posts which I know for a fact are 35 feet high. They come to his belly button. His height should be roughly 1.6 x this. 35 x 1.6 = 56.

So we have legit just signed a 56 foot tall player that can jump. Nobody will beat us now.

He’s actually Scott Pendelberry height and used to play basketball

Can only have so many total rookies. IIRC we had 9 total (8 normal & 1cat b), now we have 7 normal & 2 cat b.

We also have 32 senior listed at present, which leaves us with a total of 41, which means we have 3 senior list spots

Did you just make that up to cover up your original statement being wrong?

Category B has nothing to do with Category A. They are separate. I think it is 6 max Cat A. And 3 max Cat B. You can’t have 9 Cat A because u don’t have any Cat B.

No, as I understand the CBA list rules list sizes are capped at 44. 36 minimum senior listed and up to 8 rookies, with a maximum of 6 Cat A and maximum 3 Cat B. We had 9 total rookies (due to retirements & LTI during the year) and cut Bradtke before signing Hayes-Brown.

We will no doubt make more cuts between now and list lodgements to get to the required 44.

I think when with the two MSD picks - which go straight to the Cat A rookie list - the club ‘elevates’ two players on the Cat A rookie list to the primary list, always maintaining a maximum of 6 on the Cat A rookie list.

Now that you don’t need to be on the primary list to play the Seniors gone are the days where they’re made public.

My understanding may be wrong though.

 

[Bojangles17]

Has he got any football experience?

Up until u15s by reports ,,,so more advanced than soldo and mate , I just hope he can get on the bloody park

 

[Antzzz]

I'm willing to give him a chance......nothing ventured nothing gained ......hope he keeps the wild look

Hayes-Brownlow inbound fr

 

[dothebowdenshuffle]

He's a speculative pick. Low risk. Has trained with us in off-season. Also through Perth Wildcats has spent a few years in an elite sporting environment. At 23 he has a very short window of opportunity to get up to speed. Club obviously sees something they like in him. 6'10" bit younger and probably more mobile than Soldo. Perhaps see him partnering Ryan as our future ruck pairing.

So are we going to have this bloke and Colina on our lists as Cat B? Surely not.

Wrong...reckon MC has been a good decision!

Seems like it? Otherwise Colina would've been cut when Bradtke was, wouldn't he?

Soldo is 100% gone if Colina is sticking around.

A cat b rookie being on the list would have zero to do with whether a genuine AFL player stays at the club.

Don't think so. You can't have 3 lumbering Ruckman in the VFL side at once, plus Ryan potentially.

I reckon Soldo is gone regardless anyway...

 

[rfctigerarmy]

Can he win the rising star?

 

[tiger_tough]

Can he win the rising star?

No. Too old.

 

[Drunken Wookie]

No. Too old.

brownlow it is then

 

[rfctigerarmy]

No. Too old.

Poor attitude

Did you ask if he saw any of our recruiters hiding behind trees?
