Tiny Tim sans ukelele warbling "Tip Toe thru the Tulips"

For those still believing Riak Andrew will somehow propitiously fall into our laps.

Potentially why we have the late pick available to match a bid. If it comes too early then so be it.

Let's just hope it's not a popular rag with the common folk.

Especially so at Carringbush, out Moonee Ponds way or beyond the Port Jackson hinterlands.

Just noticed that Sam Marshall is Brisbane academy despite playing for Sandy Dragons. That seems a bit on the nose for me and contradicts the reasons for the academy.

It looks to me a policy of Brisbane's, to send their good NGA members down to Vic for their football schooling.

Pub test failed!

What’s the feeling on whether Andrew will be selected by another club, so we have to match and use our last list spot/pick, or whether he gets through and we can rookie him?

to be honest i'm half expecting him to slide through 

talls simply don't seem to have the premium placed upon them that they did as recently as three, four years ago

[buck_nekkid 5,848]

Gone to Sydney, not matched at #55

[PartyTimeJohnny 537]

Pretty upset

[DeeSpencer 25,626]

Not a surprise, club never were really linked with him. A fraction undersized and doesn’t kick well. That said, cost was basically the last pick in the draft. But we don’t seem to be a club that turns over the list these days. 

[rpfc 28,343]

Well, I don’t know how to riak to this

[Redleg 40,887]

The club we gave Grundy to. 

Hope they have a good FA we can take from them next year.

They seemed shocked we didn’t match, didn’t see a single smile from their group.

Dunno y we wouldn’t take him the cost was minimal and we have the list spots, we all seen what he brother can do why make the same mistake twice

Maybe we just rate players better then him?

No biggie.

We weren’t even able to make a mistake with Mac. But given half the chance we would have found a way

[Benny Dee 16]

ah well, if we really wanted him, we would have made it happen.

 

would have been nice to slide through as a rookie

We don’t have the list spots, our third pick is all we have and clearly they wanted other players.

Its not like we don’t have young kids developing but we do seem to hang on to guys as well as paying the price for top ups that so far haven’t worked.

Im not even sure if we wanted Riak as cat B which does seem wild because he has more upside than Mentha IMO.

Who is Riaj Andrews

[Supreme_Demon 3,815]

Disappointed....but I have faith in Jason Taylor's decision.

I think there's another two younger Andrew brothers anyway?

said so in the johnson thread, but im truly gutted by this, its non-commital by the club and is going against the youthful processes we've been on for some time now. theres just so many ways this ends badly for us, watching mac flourish, ourselves getting destroyed by aliir playing against the swans in the past. i think his athletic potential once in the pro systems, he's gonna make us look so silly
