I thought he had a great game last night.
It's often said there's only three parts to football. When they have it, when you have it, and when it's in the contest.
So you have to take it when it's up for grabs, use it when you have it, and get it back when they've got it.
Kamdyn is a huge reason why we're able to do the latter.
I don't know if there's a better player on our list at turning a two on one against between the arcs, into a contest, both in the air and on the ground. When you go to the games, and focus on him, it's actually amazing to see him run from wing to wing to cut off and cover. He's a machine. What's been impressive this year, is his aerial work is improving.
Really important to how we play.

Kamdyn has looked rusty for a few weeks, even before the bye. Started the season like a house on fire but has petered out now. You can't question his workrate but he isn't getting as much ball as he was earlier and is not as silky as he was either
Grover has done a power of defensive work this year, he pushes to harass and contest and pressure more than many in the Tigers side, hes a workhorse.
Both he and Broad cover a lot of ground defensively, to cover off the outlets for the opposition and to cover off for our smaller runners when they go up the ground. It is one of the reasons these guys are in every week.Ive concentrated on watching them both at times.
All that said Grover has been a little off last 2 games but he's earned credits this year.

Tell me Zips, is there any Richmond player that you actually rate and is not a dud / delist?
in his favour is we dont have a like for like replacement. we can roll the likes of Baker, RIoli, Bolton and Lambert through the wing but none of those would offer the same defensive work rate off the ball, and defensive aerial presence.
McIntosh's role is to run up and down the wing, often where the ball isnt to limit the opposition from switching play, and to spread wide when we have it, to drag the opposition zone. Ellise plays a similar role at times.
that is not to say he is undroppable, but it would be a shift in thinking.
Getting games while others are busting there gut (Baker) are getting dropped. He was shocking yesterday
Whatever you say about McIntosh - usually quite a lot - you can’t accuse him of not busting his gut either
In fact - as has been pointed out many times - one of his strengths is the ability to cover so much ground with gut-busting runs up and down the wing.
And playing an important role for the team
Tigers lock in Astbury, McIntosh
Richmond premiership players David Astbury and Kamdyn McIntosh have both signed new deals, tying them to the Club until the end of 2021.
Hope we can get Shedda locked away soon, I’d imagine there’s nothing to worry about, however with Port believing there in the window they may throw big coin at him.
Have a feel that we may know Brando is on his way to Arden st, so we are now locking away a few with spare coin
