Dashing mop of red hair and a running half back type. Commented on in the latest Road to the Draft poddy. Only recently being touted as a higher pick ... so we will see. No FS discount so i can't see the Club favouring him over a better unconnected player. _________________ All We Can Be |

What! He's a ranga? No way. If we sign him up then ten years from now he'll be the subject of a self-obsessed doco claiming that other players called him Ginger and hurt his feelings. |

It is a pity that there is no grandfather/grandson rule. If Ed Richards is drafted by one of the other 17 teams that will make two grandsons of players from the 1953 Premiership team not playing for their grandfather's club. _________________ Born and raised in Black and White |

I swear if Melbourne get him, I will puke!
But I've seen articles about possible draftees before. I've seen them say "this player" will be a top 20 pick... and then they go around pick 60 or not at all.
See: Jonty Scharenberg.
Anyway, it'd be nice to get him to the club if he really is rated that highly. I'm sentimental like that... it's why I'm always banging on about Weideman/Picken/Stewart/and now Kelly. But I know that isn't the recruitment strategy, haha.
Anyway, I'll be keeping an eye on him to see where he ends up and at what pick. _________________ A Goal Saved Is 2 Goals Earned! |

Billy Morrison was the grandson of Lou. That went well. _________________ Annoying opposition supporters since 1967. |

I know Lou's daughter was named Nicole Morrison but I am pretty sure that Billy Morrison of Tasmania was not Nicole's son or Lou's grandson. _________________ Born and raised in Black and White |
