Apparently (BF rumour) the club will take six rookies next year. I suspect this will mean we will take two Irish recruits?!

Great news if true.

Richmond was one of the few teams to pay $30,000 to go to the irish football camp earlier this year.
Apparently some good raw talent up for grabs

Not necessarily. In 2009 and 2010 all teams are able to pick 6 rookies because of the Gold Coast draft concessions.
 
Great news, if true. Very happy to see the club continuing to head in the right directions, with this being another example.

Go Tige's!

Fantastic :clap :)

Couldn't be a year where we needed them more.

Yes, but on second thought, let's delist him and instead pluck a bloke from the middle of Dublin who would probably start with more footy nous than JON has developed in his entire footy life.
