Player Watch #31 Rhyan Mansell

[Vassp]

He will be about 2 years away from senior AFL, and if he stays at Richmond he will probably play as a small forward.
we have a habit of swapping players positions.

 

[Rubber Hips]

There are now 7 indigenous players on the list which is the most ever.

Shane Edwards
Daniel Rioli
Shai Bolton
Sydney Stack
Marlion Pickett
Maurice Rioli Jr
Rhyan Mansell

Congrats to our club...shouldn’t be underestimated

....meanwhile at the filth 0

 

[Rubber Hips]

Do you reckon that was just 1 take...sounded like he said that a million times over

good kid nonetheless

 

[Marcel Proust]

that certainly seems likely. you wouldnt think they want 2 running defenders

If Gallucci is signed , where does he play / cover?

Which position would he play reserves? Where is he projected to play seniors if he comes good?

I see houli spot open up in the short term depends how Nigel stacks up against a few others who have claims , Rossy and rcd would appear to be making a case

 

[theyellowsash]

Seniors or 2nds

Seconds probably.

But I'd assume they'd be planning on him playing a Lambert style mid-forward role when he retires in 3 or so years.

 

[THE_GUN]

As others have mentioned before me the first thing that comes to mind is 'He plays like Liam Baker

Well done Nigel and go well son

Give him the #14 when Bachar retires

 

[Oprah From Tigerland]

 

[Charlie Pannam]

That’s a nice touch thanking the club for the opportunity.

I like the highlights particularly his defensive stuff, obviously works hard both ways ala Lambert, Kmac, George.

 

[beema limapep]

Absolute sleeves rolled up beast.

 

[Jazny]

Cant wait to see how he goes! Surprised North didn't recruit him.

Don’t see that so much , quicker than bakes and prob tackles more and loves to carry it , bakes great contested for his size, and sublime use of the pill

 

[Bojangles17]

Already got a bit of size , good luck kiddo

 

[beema limapep]

Metres gained at VFL level will be a very interesting stat to keep an eye on. Could blow more established names out of the water.

 

[Jack5]

History?....

First time a premiership team takes the field together again, ie same 22. Houli's injury a roadblock to that at the moment.

 

[cairo tiger]

kid can play tipped him from a whileback

 

[GoTigers2015]

Operation steal Tarryn Thomas is obviously underway

Especially after the reported bust up at training with Zeibell last year.

 

[THE_GUN]

But north will have #1 pick in the PSD they hold the cards

 

["The Roar Is Back"]

Would not be at all surprised if this pick is resultant of the new standing the mark rule and we see short and baker trialled in slightly different roles , particularly short on the wing .

 

[Tiger_Of_Old]

History?....

We'll be the first reigning Premier to go into rnd 1 unchanged from the GF.

 

[Tiger_Of_Old]

But north will have #1 pick in the PSD they hold the cards

Their taking Dusty Springfield

 

[Phar Ace]

Was gonna say the same thing
Very similar to baker
Hard at the contest and follows up with 2nd and 3rd efforts

Looks like he is a pretty good decision maker and can hit a team mate by foot as well

Suits our system

Decision making appeared his best asset in that 2min plus clip - pace was good at that level

 

[Karp3_dm]

North don’t make the best decisions these days

Matty Clarke disagrees with you, thinks he’ll play games (& early) given how he’s trained and picked up the game plan.

 

[Aristotle Pickett]

Looks very quick.
