Ultimate Glory 2023 Trade speculation and Shinbeggars discussion

[CaptainWorpedo]

Except the free agency market isn't parallel to that of the non-free agency market. Kosi will get market rates and we can all wish that to be a second rounder but you will be met by some fairly bitter disappointment when all is said and done.

Nothing to do with f/a.

Key position players are in demand, therefore you pay a premium for them.

 

[The Generals Helmet]

He’s won us a couple tight games this year to be fair.
St Kilda was his best game

I understand he kicked the match winner but he only had 10 possies and kicked 1.2 for the day. He kicked multiple goals on only two occasions and didn't kick a single goal in 6/12 appearances. I just don't think he was ever going to be the answer for us up forward.

OK, he is terrible. Let's accept pick 120 because he's garbage

 

[Platten44]

Probably promising him game time now that Riewoldt is back down in Tassie. Possibly more coin/years than we were willing to offer also.

Riewoldt is not living in Tassie. Staying in Melbourne.

 

[HawksILove]

Anyone else hearing McKay to Bombers looking very likely.

Hope not

Yeah, nah. Essendon paid a future fourth for 2MP - let's not pretend Kosi is some hot asset because he's tall.

 

[BIGHAWK23]

Not at all

 

[Ned Ryerson]

Riewoldt is not living in Tassie. Staying in Melbourne.

I more meant he was working for the club. Even still - he's not going to be playing for Richmond next year even if he was living on Punt Road.

 

[CaptainWorpedo]

Not in 2023 mate! All that matters is the going rate today. Let’s not give our assets away!

*Tigers 25 will be pushed out to 30?

From where?

Okie dokie. Just like all the people last year who thought we were going to get a massive price for Jack Gunston my feeling is if you are hoping for a second rounder for Kosi you will be disappointed once the deal goes through. Will be ecstatic to be wrong of course.

The scenery has changed since last year too! An Kosi is only 22.

Key position players are in a demand now! Tigers 25 is fair, it’ll be pushed out to say early 30’s.

 

[butlers hawks]

Sadly there is going to be some mighty disappointed people in here when they see the return on Kosi

We're used to accepting nothing. Why would we be disappointed?

 

[Millsie69]

Wonder if Richmond would trade us Cumberland for Kosi?

 

[SammyC]

Kosi knows that Ramsden is ultimately being groomed for his spot. All going well for us, he loses his place at some stage next year.

If the tigers give him 2 years, better coin and there is a clear role with Jack gone, can totally see the logic from his perspective.

Ramsden has shown nothing. He's a LONG way off, and by then will probably request a trade elsewhere.

Noone expects more.
We are hoping the club doesn't roll over and accept less (which has become a recurring theme when losing players)

Key position players are always in demand and Richmond have Lynch playing for them. Let’s stop pretending this is some new paradigm that has never existed before. Kosi is a very average player with limitations. Richmond won’t overpay - they have other list needs also they’d want to fill with that second rounder.

Again - delighted to be wrong but I don’t see any conceivable reality where Kosi nets us a straight second without sweetness/swaps etc.

 

[Iceman!]

Do we really have an interest in Chol or are journos just reading Bigfooty and generating clicks again?

Not sure but it makes a ton of sense, I don’t rate him but losing Kozi leaves us with exactly 1 AFL quality key forward and he has struggled to string a whole season together

There’s a half dozen posters already wanting a second rounder - there are clearly people who expect more.

I can’t understand Hawks who are willing to over pay for players to come to us and undersell players leaving us!

You need it to be more balanced! A fair price for going and coming players.

 

[crazywildhorse]

In a weird way, Kosi deciding to move is not a bad outcome. You need to make tough calls and this was made by player. Hopefully they can make it work.

But Kosi is terrible and was getting delisted. We should take pick 120 and LIKE IT!

 

[Iceman!]

Chol and McKay becoming must gets- what’s the hold up on the McKay news FFS

Kosi loss will hurt. We need to draft some talls big time…

we aren’t even done with the season yet, I don’t get why people are acting like it’s taking ages for people to make announcements. There is no hold up.
