Mind you I am keen to see his 20 m and 3 km run times at the Draft Combine to see if he is on par with Fog’s physical prowess.

How many number 1 picks can do this

Darcy's was was doing that in senior footy too. His strength and power werent questioned.

Go back to Anthony Banik as well.

He's going top five as a minimum but clubs will be keen to see his aerobic power and speed data

You would have umpired Horne at Christies wouldn't have you?

North a huge chance to finish above Hawks and Crows with our draw.

Interesting odds on the premiership fancies, you could put $100 each on the top 4 hopefuls and still come out in front regardless of the winner.

Dogs $4.50
Cats $5
Dees $5
Lions $5.50
Power $10
Swans $13
Tigers $15

I think we can immediately rule out Richmond and Port.

Agree.

Lots of respect for him, went from being a petulant look at me forward that wanted to do nothing but take hangers to the ultimate workhorse bringing all his teammates into the game.

Last years finals series where he and Lynch on many occasions were actively spoiling as forwards just to ensure it came to ground was brilliant.

I've grown to like to him, not that he'd give a f*** but I think his persona on the field has improved immensely over the past few years along with his work ethic.

It's funny how the most prominent forwards of Richmond's over the past twenty years have had the similar antics on the field, I used to love Richo but geez he didn't mind a whinge or a spray at a team mate, loved it when he moved to the wing.

Richo was so funny to watch when he lost it.
Flapping his arms around like a pissed off seagull was hilarious.

again, media blow something out of proportion. Happened for about 30 seconds and had no impact on the score. Move on.

Is there some reason, in this year of all years, the AFL wouldn't have programmed the teams to play each other once before teams started playing each other again?

Yep thought the same. St Kilda for instance played Richmond twice in 10 matches. North and Essendon met in Round 10 and play again this week.

Especially this year when things could go tits up with COVID at the drop of a hat.
