"They would say that wouldn't they..."The more I read FB posts and comments from bitter Richmond supporters saying Bolton is a downhill skier.....
The more I read FB posts and comments from bitter Richmond supporters saying Bolton is a downhill skier, the more I think we should hold firm on retaining pick 10.
I know deep down he’s exactly what we need, but I’m now getting strong Tim Kelly“blow your dough” vibes.PLAYERCARDSTART11Tim Kelly

Reassurance on his best work / stats please.
I think a little bit different, actually a lot.Bolton is a downhill skier, but adds a different dimension.
Downhill skiers need to be as surrounded by defensive minded group to balance it out.
Brad Hill was a down hill skier, they have a role.
It doesn't matter, Walls has said we are paying upI really don't think people are suitably pricing in the reality that with Bolton's family already here there isn't a future with him playing on at Richmond and spending considerable time in WA during the season for personal reasons will reduce his trade price end of 2025 to a token gesture.
A video titled “Every Shai Bolton goal in 2024” but they missed the Saints game where he kicked 4 and was arguably best on.
But yeah I don’t know how anyone can watch a Bolton highlight video and not think he’s exactly what we need. Will be awesome for us.
What are his attributes that make him better than any small forward we have? I can't say I know anything about him but his stats if he plays small forward are horrendous. 32 goals in 70 games? 8 goals over his last 20 games? Need a bit of context here.
No he won't. He’s on the beers right now.Big Sean is gonna take all this fatty talk personal and come out in top shape next year. AA if he does.
Not sure where people get the idea this draft is super strong. Even is a more accurate word in my view. In a normal draft you have the cream that can go anywhere from 1-2 to 1-10 players in a strong draft. This year has no cream, it is all milk from pick 1 on. I'd say there is about 15 bonafide AFL quality prospects at this stage that would normally sit in the range of 5-25 in a stronger draft.
Kinnear Beatson and David Walls have said its a strong draftNot sure where people get the idea this draft is super strong. Even is a more accurate word in my view.

I'd say there is about 15 bonafide AFL quality prospects at this stage that would normally sit in the range of 5-25 in a stronger draft.
Or the reason they’re already here is because we’ve agreed to pay what he’s worth and the deal is as good as doneI really don't think people are suitably pricing in the reality that with Bolton's family already here there isn't a future with him playing on at Richmond and spending considerable time in WA during the season for personal reasons will reduce his trade price end of 2025 to a token gesture.
Walls wasn’t too excited by last years draft. To the point where he was happy to trade out our first pick and the Collingwoods pick into this yearEvery year we get told it’s a super draft so I don’t read too much into it. 3 out of the last 4 drafts have been kinda meh with 2021 being the exception.
I don’t think our depth stacks up too badly if you stack it up against most other teams tbh.
We’re short on one or two roles depth wise but so is pretty much every team in the competition. For example Pat Voss is probably a better footballer than whoever is going to replace Joe Daniher next season. Most on here wouldn’t have even heard of the three guys Brisbane had as emergencies last week. There was only four best 22 players out so if they had so much depth why’s there two youngsters with sub-10 games each (not like they’re high picks either) and a spud KPD previously delisted by St Kilda as their emergencies?
Nah, this late on people are pretty forthcoming about the quality of the draft. Nobody was really hyping up any of the 3 draft classes you're talking about. Especially not 2022.Every year we get told it’s a super draft so I don’t read too much into it. 3 out of the last 4 drafts have been kinda meh with 2021 being the exception.

Not for mine.If we were into Jack Martin is there a chance we could look at Gary Rohan? apparently doesn’t want to retire and pretty similar to Martin. I think it’d be terrible but seems like we’re shopping in the dfa department
