We picked him up in at #17 ( I think )..

Whats the latest on his progress ? Will he get a game this year ?
 
Still very raw but I loved the turn of pace on Saturday breaking away from the centre. Arched the back and evaded the would be tackler and ended up hitting the leading forward smack bang on the tit.

If that's a glimpse then I'm looking forward to a few more of his games.
 
Seen footage of him on Tiger TV on AFL website

Most of it was him running out of defence

Looked bloody impressive
 
Maybe late if our season is stuffed. Just to have a look at him at senior level.
 
was supposedly meant to lineup at fb in rnd 1 lol

we need this kid in the future and schulz/moore have done well so far no need to rush him
 
I saw him for the first time on saturday and although he didn't do much,what he did just looked high quality!

would like him to get a game later in the year if his form warrants it, but No gifted games!!

Was nowhere near as big as i expected from what had heard on here though. Big for a 17yo but not as big as some here made him out to be!

GETTING OVER A INJURED FOOT, playing Coburg this week, just getting back after injury will need a few weeks to get form, as he really has not played a lot this year, may need FAST TRACKING coach to help him develop sooner, do we have a backline coach at Richmond thats any good? I do not know as backline coachs seem rare at Richmond, could anyone let me know if we do, meny thanks
 
Steady progress from Alex will see him get a few games at the back half of the season even moreso if the tigers are languishing.
 
Cant see him getting a game unless we cop injuries to our similarly sized backs ie Thursty, Moore, McGuane
 
Rance is a better prospect than Moore and McGuane already and will take their place in due course.

He is a footballer.

Will become a favourite of tiger fans will Alex.

Moore hasn't impressed you this year craigo?
Barely put a foot wrong.
 
Moore has come on in leaps and bounds, thats why I dont think Rance will be given too much of a go this year. Although, injuries play a part and at the end of the day if he really puts his hands up anything can happen.
