Put him an environment with his buddies in Shai and Pickett and a strong indigenous culture at the club plus Sth Freo royalty in MRJ...go well Matt
Like to have a goal kicking wingman on the opposite wing to Kmac, reckon we might use him as high forward , definitely ads something different to our forward line
Anyway to keep shai around at the club for maybe a little less? Cunning like a fox is dimma

There are no stupid ideas, just stupid people
Completely fine with this pick. Just had a Saints supporting mate message me saying he’s filthy about him coming to us and that he can see him playing really well in our system. Fees he should never have been delisted in the first place.
Completely different players. Reckon like Marlion we will be equally enthralled and groaning in despair in the same game with Matt. As long as he cracks in hard and competes like a lunatic I will cheer him on.
X-Factor, speed and a nice height. Bolton Mark 11?I actually like this pick, believe he is good mates with Marlion? saw them arrive together at a VFL game a couple of seasons ago at Sandi.
X-factor, speed and nice height, if he has matured could be a great get.
Will certainly fit into the Brotherhood at Tigerland.
**Edited to include Parker and Pickett are ex team-mates:
Tigers take ex-Saint and Pickett teammate in mid-season draft
Richmond have taken ex-St Kilda forward Matt Parker in the mid-season draft, echoing their move from 2019 and reuniting Marlion Pickett with his former South Fremantle teammate.www.theage.com.au
I can almost see you dribbling
I heard Brereton speak about him when he was doing a bit of work at the Saints. ... from memory, said he had fantastic skills and was also a ripping bloke. He's one of ours now so I wish him well.
Apparently came from nowhere in amateurs onto South Freo's list. Played 27 games there before going to St Kilda for 19 games in 2 years (ankle injury). Back at South for 7 games this season (stats below). Hasn't played a lot of footy or exposed to a great development system. I'd say this is a perfect Richmond moneyball pick.
Just went through the highlights. An extrovert. Some OTT celebrations. A bit annoying. A tad un-Richmondy. Talent is there. Leap. Speed. Hardness. Loves a goal. But the noggin... clearly that was the question. If it has been sorted, or if we can sort it, could be good player.
