It's so easy to forget that he is 21.

He's no Charlie Curnow
Our 1954 premiership players are our heroes, and it has to be said that Charlie was their hero.

Incredible is t it? At a conservative estimate we get to watch him for another 10 years.
They say Burt Lancaster has one, but I don't believe them.

Average age of peak footy 24/25.
Amazing only 21 with all the things he has done.

Browny from On the couch is a big fan of the Bont. Tonight he said if Dustin Martin is worth $1.2 mill the Bont is worth more.

Bont is a premiership player, Dusty never will be. That wins the pissing contest easily.

Yep, I hope JMac has counted his beans properly and left enough to keep Bont happy.

Surely there is an excel file and a total salary cap figure at the top and then players and salary listed below. Bont is first on the list and his figure is $1.5+
More of an In Bruges guy?

It's not your best 6 players that win you premierships, it's your worst 6 and Richmond's worst 6 are pretty bad.

I'd know if I paid them any respect. Don't make me google their playing list.

So how can you slag off their bottom 6 if you have no idea who they actually are? To save you the troubles they are performing as well as the likes of Dunkley, Roberts, McLean, Smith, etc.. did for us last year.
Anyway the Bont is really good.. just wish he would kick the ball through the big sticks a little more.

The one goal that The Bont kicks is the clutch goals in the last quarter, but yeah, does miss some easy ones during a game.
