2016 Draft

[TigerPort]

Yeah his kicking action is putrid but he hit the targets. Then again it was a highlights reel.........

Will his kicking action be a hindrance at the highest level?

Seem to recall Rance had questions on his kicking action when he first came to the AFL, still does l suppose

 

[Ridley]

The club that's won the last 3 grand finals and played in the last 7 in the O & M

Pretty sure they said he was from Lavington FC not Albury FC on the Fox Footy telecast Corn Chips.

Regardless, it's a *smile* joke that the Giants get access to kids from Albury and surrounding areas. It's been Aussie Rules heartland for over 100 years. This kid would have been playing footy before the Giants were a twinkle in fat guts Demetriou's eye yet he's in their academy.

As I said, the AFL is corrupt.

Frank Jackson says in radio interview... can do with work on his kicking. So much for the good kick mantra

Not many great kicks left at pick 72 DYT?

Rances kicking was never putrid or a real issue it was more his decision making when kicking

Some truely remarkable negative comments from the usual posters. Are you upset we didn't *smile* it up? :hihi

 

[craig]

Both should go early in the rookie draft I think. I still prefer Bunker but wouldn't be upset with those boys either. This is a very good draft with exceptional depth.

Forgot about Bunker hes a Bigger sized Mid isnt he Bully

Happy with the haul, every player picked was in my top 60 and ranked higher than their eventual position. Well done Richmond on finally hoodwinking the draft experts.

Not bad, Bully. More than 50 out of your 60 were drafted. When are you applying for a job?

Actually, only 49. Still a damn good effort.

Thanks for your work, Bully.

 

[King Kong]

Yep great work Bully particularly on Parfitt

Wasn't he drafted with the pick we gave for caddy?

 

[Blind Charlie]

Only just noticed Sproule didn't get taken,hoping like hell we get him as a rookie.

Putrid? Come on rids. The kid has a different action doesn't make it putrid. I like that he watches it to his boot everytime. He'll be right.

 

[King Kong]

His kicking action would be the worst in the AFL. Can't think of anyone since the mad Irish guy that kicked Cloke in the nuts that kicks that bad.

His one on one defence and marking though is fantastic.

From the Hun:

RICHMOND

The Tigers grabbed inside terriers Dion Prestia and Josh Caddy in trade period and added another contested king in Jack Graham. He captained South Australia and won the Larke Medal as the best player on the national stage. West Australian Shai Bolton slipped to their first pick and he has exhilarating pace. Zips through traffic and will provide spark next to Jack Riewoldt, but will he want to return home? Some were spooked. Ryan Garthwaite finished top 10 at the combine in clean hands and kicking tests but does his best work down back. After Troy Chaplin’s retirement and with a question mark on Jake Batchelor and David Astbury, it was important to boost that position. Two first-rounders next your courtesy of the Brett Deledio trade means the Tigers walk away from the off-season pleased.
