The kicker for me is how McQualter got past explaining how Richmond chose Yze over him. That would have been a red flag for me considering McQualter was a known quantity within Richmond.

Top tier list management by Meth Coast. Trade out an experienced key defender for a 26 year old 170cm back pocket. Glorious. Liam Baker going to the club he loves to win maybe 20 games the rest of his career

Seems like a country football coaching appointment,
‘I can coach like everyone else but I’ve got 2 players coming with me!’
I did say some would find it crazy but it does seem most or in agreeance so far.
I've got complete confidence that whilst we need more midfield depth it doesn't need to be Chad Warner level. Outside of Neale I doubt any of Brisbane's mids would be on 2/3 of what the reported contract for Warner is. Getting a Dunkley standard player (he's very good but not elite imo) if our fringe mids don't improve might be all that's needed.

Baker was always a spud. Never wanted him. Not dissapointed even a little bit.
Only one of them is any good either.
Graham wouldn't get a game for about half the teams in the competition.
Lots of handwringing over what players to entice etc.
My thoughts:
Chad and Bolton are sort of similar players. Bolton has more forward craft, by miles. Chad out of the middle is miles better. I mean they're not overly similar, but Pickett is an out and out small forward.
So, for me it is Bolton and Pickett OR Chad and Pickett. Of course, I'd take Bolton and Chad, but IF Bolton is near done, Pickett becomes the greater focus short term.
I really want the Bolton deal done early! But Richmond could easily just hold out for a decent amount of the trade period.

It’s justified if you use that pick on a kid in a deep draft but nah they’re gonna give it away for a feel good story lol. Hope the media slam them for itTop tier list management by Meth Coast.

Good question. But maybe Richmond just botched the choice of Yze? Kingsley was at the Saints from 2010-2018, and was overlooked for their Richardson replacement. Ratten got it as caretaker mid 2019, but then they simply kept him on. Not sure if Kingsley was in the mix?
If he's dumb enough to want to play for West Coast good luck to him. Can't understand it myself but hopefully they overpay and he under delivers.

how in the flying **** is Liam Baker worth pick 13?
Trading out Barass for 13 to get more kids in the door? Smart!
Trading 13 for a 26 year old role player? WHAT ARE YOU DOING.
Genuinely unhinged. Can't wait to hear X.Ellis rant about it on HardBallGets

This aged well!
Maybe, but obviously there was some player sentiment towards McQualter and they didn't hire him. Meanwhile the Eagles have taken the bait.

Turns out the geelong site hadn't ever been updated to include him to begin with. James Rahilly also not listed.

Tim Kelly wants out…management shopping him around
Probably wait until the deal is completed. There could be some 'manipulation' in using Graham to net Tigers a higher pick.
Can’t imagine there would be any takers

We'll swap him for Brodie.
