Who is it then?

No idea atm. Switta strongly rumoured to be heading home but was told over the weekend it’s not Richmond.

Anyone who mentions Sturt gets knee capped

Yeah I’m all for this.

Any word on why for Switta? Signed an extension last year. Seems odd

I'm sure the old "family reasons TM"

I'm sure the old "family reasons TM"

I don’t mind a legitimate family reason (as much as I gave shit to Schultz, but that was mostly bc Collingwood) but can’t stand a Cerra type family reasons where they just wanna live back home.

I don’t mind a legitimate family reason (as much as I gave shit to Schultz, but that was mostly misdirected anger bc Collingwood) but can’t stand a Cerra type family reasons where they just wanna live back home.

I'll still have to see it to believe it with Switta but it would make a lot of things make sense

 

[StingBitten]

Yes the Switta thing seems to be picking up again, think it was Brad Hardly today.

Hope it's not true he's one of my favourite players... Which is exactly what I said about Schulz, Acres, Bras Hill etc.... FML.

Give a go making Banners your favourite. Heard he's a lovely fellow.

 

[Ge3ks]

Only way Warner becomes live this year, is if a more important piece becomes available to them.

A true key forward, a key back, something like that.

Ahem...

Cerra can’t stay on the park. Blessing in disguise.

 

[s_wd6]

Cerra can’t stay on the park. Blessing in disguise.

Even if he could, I can’t say that he’d be adding too much to our team. Very vanilla player.

 

[SPEEDWAGON]

If Richmond want all our picks, it’s baker Bolton and Tom lynch plus they pick up their salaries for the next 2 years - they can’t touch our futures as we need for Warner

And then we are all flipping in for a flag next 2 years

Pray to the injury gods and the fat boy gods

Maybe the incomings are so significant that letting Switta leave for the right price isn't a bad call and helps salary/draft capital wise, but surely without that crunch you have to be holding out for Weller-level overs (not actually pick 2, just meaning as overs relative to Switta's own value as Weller was).

Contracted til 2026, and unlike past times when we've let players go in-contract you can make the argument Switta leaving makes the difference at a time when we should be looking to compete. Plus you have the Lobb + Henry examples where when the terms weren't to our benefit we didn't do the trade.

 

[apuchar]

Does anythink Brayshaw is a chance of leaving? I never like stars delaying contract talks until the end of season. Also how do we fit Serong,Warner, Young and Brayshaw in the midfield?

Cap space taken by Serong,Young,Bolton,Jackson and Darcy.

Fyfe,Walters and tabs likely to clear up some but not that much so pay all the big boys long term.

Also Andy's MRS is from Melbourne and we all know They call the shows on where they live not the players.

Nah. He said the other day they consider Perth home.

 

[Heave Ho Bro]

Where do we think the price will ultimately land for Baker and Bolton? All 3 firsts with Richmonds highest 2nd coming back? The 2 best firsts and Saints 2nd? At the end of the day you are hoping to draft a couple of guys as good as these 2 with the picks anyway and they will slot straight in. In their prime. I could live with either of those deals. Still take a decent first or 2 high ish 2nds to the draft for Walls to do his thing.

they won't want our latest pick this year they will want our f1 in hope we drop off like Collingwood. our f1 gets us more back

I’m very curious about who the tigers would want that has a similar worth to Baker, Ras or Brodie were my first thoughts, but maybe if they are hitting the full reset button it’s some of our younger vic players? A combination from: Murphy/ Knobel / Reidy / stanley / Simpson?

With that track record, I don't suppose Banners could be your favorite player next year, huh?

We will keep 1x first and 1x second I expect.

Matt Owies does not have a contract offer. Is not a star by any means, but worth a small contract offer to see if he wants to come across.

Calrton have not offered him a contract so far, so would not cost much in terms of draft picks. (Very late pick)

27, and 32 goals the last 2 years. (At 1.5 goals a game)
Only 8-9 possession a game, just over 2 tackles a game, and 4.5 score involvements per game.

Limitations - 27 years old, 178cm's and a bit slow. (I am guessing Walters like pace. )

At best he is a good stop game for 2-3 years, and lets other players play in the correct role.
At worst, he plays WAFL for 2 years on 300-400k as other players are dominating.

If the metric we are using is Owies, I think you can fill his role with the best clean hands midfielder in the WAFL for half the salary cap impact. You're already a fan.

haha

Winder is also faster, more agile, and can run through the midfield.

I think we are walking along the same footpath here.

 

[arsesmart]

Sharp was one of our best players for 3/4's of the season. He is probably just stuffed.

Sharp's still bringing a lot of run and energy.

It's his decision making (and related execution) that has been on a downward trend. Could also be a fatigue thing, but his prior history in decision making was the big question mark over him before the start of the season.

Plenty of opportunity to right that ship though. This season and next.

Ras or Brodie might make sense, but they are worth way less than Baker. They also have Taranto and Hopper that are similar style players. They've really stuffed themselves picking up those guys. Will be 27 and 28 start of next year and contracted to end of 2029, and I doubt any team would want them. Great trading by GWS.
