Will 2015 be the year that The Bean is unleashed? Richmond could definitely benefit from another tall goalkicking forward to put pressure on Vickery and Griffiths. While Liam did kick 37.7 goals in the VFL for 2014 the concern would be how much he offers around the ground, he doesn't take a huge amount of marks for a key forward and his tackling is almost non existent. On the plus side he is capable of helping out in the ruck when needed. In terms of fantasy he presents as a downgrade option at best, likely later in the season when cash cows have dried up. You certainly wouldn't want to have him on your field at any point.

Pros - Goalkicking

Cons - Everything else


Prediction - 37-42

Still a beanpole from what I've seen. Won't last long in AFL conditions. Would be nice if he proves me wrong though!

They don't call him the Bean Stalk for no reason!

Don't see him cracking the side consistently but could be a handy downgrade option later in season as you said Craig, in case some Tiger talls get injured during the season.
