Bitta Trivia for you. Noah Cumberland and Jasper Alger both scored 2.931 seconds in the 20m sprint . Agility test, Jasper (8.141) beat Noah (8.208). Scary similar stats at combine 5 years apart.
Let's be honest, Richmond aren't gonna win more than 5-6 games next year and obviously probably finish bottom 2-3 again. Looking at next year's draft pool, there are a number of high quality mids at the top end (Dyson Sharp looks unreal). Couple our first with North's first next draft and the Tiges will be contending again in 4-5 years 💪
I’m a tiger and that’s wat I have said and to win 5-6 games is great stepping stone for 2026 and with the kids playing around 10-15 games and to have 2 first round picks are perfect for us and most likely will have money to spend money to get a few experienced players most likely 2-3 players from other clubs who it might be but I’m expecting big name players
@johnfloris6306 We're gonna have a few of the older blokes (Presti, Lynch, McIntosh) most likely retire at the end of 2025. So, you're right, we'll have a bit of coin to splash on free agents. How good would LDU be in a Tiger guernsey?
Don't understand why we drafted 3 injury prone players and added no pace to the slowest midfield in the comp. Also why didn't we draft someone to replace our only quick defender in Rioli. Thoughts mate?
Wouldn't worry about the injuries tbh. Cotchin, Edwards and Grimes had heaps of injuries as young players and had pretty good careers. You draft on potential, not production. Club would have checked the medical reports as part of the due diligence. Those players will also have access to much better rehab, medical and conditioning staff than they did at junior levels. When you finish at the bottom, you naturally have a lot of areas needing fixing. Club will almost certainly target speed and class next year with those 2 top 5 picks. Also have Brown, Banks, Tresize among others who might take Rioli's spot
Get what your saying, but I think they’ve looked at next years draft where we could have 2 top 5 picks and I’m sure they’ll take speed next year, got the core spine of the team in one draft, now we build around that!
@@TheAlphaDingo Biggest difference all the 3 players you named were picked up in different drafts you can afford to take the risk with 1 player but 3 players in the same draft massive gamble also considering 1 coming off a knee reco and another with concussion issues. Also you have alot more confidence in our fitness guys then i do. Time will be the only answer.

Thomas sims really excites me
His highlights look awesome, he competes just like a younger version of Lynch.
I got a video coming out on him!
Hope no one is forgetting Liam Fawcett, he is looking like an absolute beast this pre season
Yeah wonder how he will go!
I still have hope for Judson Clarke in the forward line also
Can’t believe Armstrong and Trainor did not get picked up earlier.
Or Alger, we got him for peanuts
yeah for real

I think Richmond would be happy to win more than 2 games
@rodriowens6455 Yeah, 6 games is pretty optimistic isn't it?

U also forgot Lefau before he got injured he was a very good forward who has sticky fingers

Hopefully Alger isn’t another Cumberland
Yeah I pray he isn't
Tell ‘em they’re Dreaming.
