Nope, doesn't fit my narrative for dramatic affect.
But seriously I got the impression the player was contracted.

You'd imagine if we got kozi and Bolton, Emmett will be Gonski
Out of contract
Article also has Odin Jones, Stanley, Tabs, Noddy, Kuek, Corbett are OOC
Of those, for me, noddy and Stanley are worth extending, possibly Kuek
Corbett and Tabs are behind Voss

He does but he would become the least of the oppositions worries and be running free. Would be deadly.
He only moved to SA to improve his footy as a teenager under guidance from Uncle Byron. Not sure he's got much of a network there other than that.
His closest and most extended family network is in WA, where he pretty much grew up. He has said before, this is where he feels closest to family.
I would think if it his family reasons driving the move, WA would be the most likely destination.
You’d think we would target only one of those 2, and use the situation to better
negotiations between Tigers, Dees. Play one against the other and see which club
buckles first.
Guaranteed that if it was possible to get both that is would shake another player from our club. Salary cap issues, and history has proven this to be true with best
22 players short changed and leaving for more coin.

Haven't been here much since the weekend. What's the vibe on the Bolton/Pickett combo? Surely we're in the box seat to grab both and still take either Port's first or St Kilda's second to the draft. Am I being too optimistic?
Too optimistic.
I think it's highly likely our first pick in this draft will be beyond 30. We'll probably get some of the Tigers late junk back with whatever we give them.
Some super popping of collars required there.
(I reckon the most odds on result for Pickett is to stay put. If it's genuinely family reasons behind the move then WA is the most likely destination, would think it would consume all 3 first rounders to get them both.)

I'd happily pay the 3 firsts to get them both. Instantly turns our biggest list deficiency into a strength.

Any chance 9 and 10 for Bolton and 29?

I’d happily pay the 4.
Is Kozzie Pickett a touch overrated?
I’ve watched him a lot and while he is a class player, he’s got a few flaws too.
His goal kicking accuracy can be horrible at times. He treads a fine line on the discipline front too (I actually don’t mind this brute physicality though as we have too many soft players in our B22 in my view relative to most other teams).
His pressure and ground level game is elite for sure but I’ve seen him kick some seriously momentum sapping behinds and even out on the fulls over the last couple of years in big games.
Bolton is a classier player for mine.
However our small forwards are so bad that getting either or both is a massive improvement.

Does that 29 turn into 35~ on draft night?
I'd hate to see 9+10 gone unless tigers paid a significant part of the Bolton contract, every year left of his agreement with Tigers

He is the Hayden Ballantyne we have been missing for way too long now.
Every player has flaws. If you're looking for goal accuracy, Bolton is probably the least accurate of the pair.
He’s a 23 year old who has kicked 35-40 goals in every season except his first. If that’s what he’s like with his flaws I can’t wait to see what it looks like when he irons them out.

It will likely be all 3 and next years first. 10 and 17 for one and 9 and F1 for the other.

Can't happen if we want to trade our first for next year. We have to use one of our firsts this year in the draft.
IF Kosi requests Freo we just need to create 2 packages and message both clubs.
9, 17 for your player and your future 2nd
10, F1 for your player and your future 2nd
Then it becomes about who wants pick 9 more.
Both are ‘fair’ deals in that they feature 2 firsts and we can grab future points and potential early 2nds.

Incorrect. I've posted numerous times on this. Amiss and Erasmus (2021) satisfy the 2-in-previous-4 years rule for the 2024 and 2025 trade periods.

Ive never been nervous about an off season before. I am this one. Yep trade all 4 first rounders get Picket and Bolton if it means throwing the Saints second in to get one of the deals over the line do that too. Richmond will pay a decent part of Boltons salary as they have to to meet minimum cap requirements. Its a very unique opportunity. Hopefully the Port pick ends up earlier than 17 as that will help trade negotiations.

Here here!
Does he make us better is the question?
And by how much?
A goal a game?
I am very excited!
