Getting a tat on each arse cheek?Taranto and Hopper will go about their business in fine style but Sampson Ryan will be a big WW factor by mid season.
* me …. Trade radio does my head in sometimes…. Noble and SOS both saying we need to look for a tall defender…….
Balta : 194cm
Tarrant: 196cm
Gibcus: 196cm
Miller: 198cm
Biggy: 197cm
Grimes: 194cm
Broad: 192cm
4 of them are 23yo or younger.
Then there’s Vlastuin who is 187cm but can play tall.
So maybe in 3-4 years we may need another KPD once Tarrant, Grimes and Broad are all gone, but we are very well off for KPD right now.

Tom Brown who we drafted last year is going to end up being the replacement for VlastuinHonestly don’t think it’s that bad of a shout…
Will be Tarrants last year, and Grimes definitely will not see 3-4 years.
Broad has another few in him, but has copped a beating in his afl career, so who knows if his body will start to fall apart.
Another tall defender developing in the vfl couldn’t hurt, but believe we need a tall forward more urgently, as well as a young developing inside midfielder.
I know he just signed an 1 year extension. But always liked the look of Will Gould at Sydney. Plays a similar role to Vlastuin.

Gee these 2 guys are costing us a bit but I guess you need to give to get...Apparently the deal is along the lines of:
Soldo 2023 R1 & 31
for
Hopper and 44 & 61 this year or Pies R2 2023 & GWS R3 2023

If the plastics wanna play hard ball.Blair should just say the grass is Greener over the other side.If the hopper deal falls through. I wouldn’t try get him as a FA next year. I would go twice as hard at green instead. Surely the giants know this would be a likely scenario if we miss on hopper this off-season.

Firstly all in favour of trading out Soldo as we have more than enough ruck depth without him. However, even it he stayed Ryan will definitely get game time next year.Something else to consider … if we don’t start giving games to Ryan in 2023 then we will end up losing him. He is 22yo start of next season.
A team like Bombers, Saints, Eagles, Pies, Port, Adelaide could do with a very promising 206cm young ruck/fwd and could provide immediate opportunity and a decent payday.
If we have Nank and Soldo, and Lynch/Riewoldt don’t have injuries, when or how does Ryan get a game?
Hopefully we go to 5 on the bench in 2023 and they get rid of the stupid sub-rule … then if Soldo is not there we can give Ryan some opportunities as back-up ruck or ruck/fwd if Jack/Lynch are out.

Wouldn’t be the same money but only a little more I’d imagineWhy would you accept a deal that's take you twice as long too get the same amount of money in 2.
What am I missing?
You 100% can but bowes ain’t leaving money on the table hence not all parties agreeI don’t think you can break the afl player contract why was everyone saying they have to take on the 800000 salary per year you can’t change a players contract in the middle of it if that was the case every team would be doing it just saying for example hey dusty you ain’t worth 1.4 mill this next 2 years can we pay you the 2.8 over 4 years it can’t be done
He is a monster ...... a VFL monster!!!Well that cleared that up I love the honesty, the snippets I’ve seen him play he looks like a bloody monster
Richmond are the only club who haven't had a representative do media during trade week.
Can't be a coincidence - the divide is real.
People quickly forget.We took 5 kids last year in a deeper draft than this one.It's like last year with North and CCJ, everyone thought we were going to get screwed over and when the trade finally landed we'd made out like bandits. If we lose 2023 R1, pick 31 & Soldo to land Hopper then so be it. We'll get more out of Taranto & Hopper in the short term that any of the picks we're trading out will bring and odds are in the longer term as well.

They clearly don’t want himIf it is easy to just stretch th contract, why wouldn’t Gold Coast just do that and keep th pick??
