Second time I've seen him live today.

I only have one thing to say.

Get him in the firsts.
Don’t think it will be too far away but the club needs to be patient with MJ. Let him play consistently high level footy at VFL first.

I don’t the no rush theory. If he is good enough to play then do it.

If he comes in he has to replace either Aarts or Daniel and both had decent games on Thursday. Let him knock the door down first.

How far off is Dreamtime?
Could be a big night.
Two Riolis, Titch and maybe Sydney against Anthony McDonald-Tipingwuti.

The multiverse hypothesis posits that there is an infinite number of potential universes governed by any one combination of infinite possible spatial and temporal laws.

And there is not a single one in which an Aarts is more valuable on a footy field than a Rioli.

What is that hypothesis? Thought I was intelligent but obviously not.

:D

In the longer term yes but there is also the law of Richmond FC which says you have to earn your precious yellow sash by a series of performances that knock the door of selection down. Young Maurice has picked up the sledge hammer and has given it a decent whack but he has to hit it a few more times to dislodge the incumbents.

I would travel a long way to see the offspring of one of the most electric players I have ever seen run out in the yellow and black on game day but he has to earn it.

Maurice senior was the best tackler I've ever seen, MoJo looks to be an outstanding tackler too, got a feeling junior is going to give us a lot of joy nailing opposition players.

He will, but it will then be filled with anger as the ump refuses to pay HTB.

Hope he has his Dad's sidestep as well, that was poetry in motion
