Alix Tauru is a defender that has shown he can go forward and still do the same thing, at 193cm and still growing I don't know about being a medium anything, his potential and his combine results back up what recruiters have a very big tick for, he literally could be anything. As in midfielders {pace}, with lots of supporters its height when talking about key forwards, you've got to be 195cm or more, if your under that god help you.I keep hearing a lot about Alix Tauru here, but how is he that differentiated to BGZ? Seems like another high-leaping medium forward? Is that what we really need?
Probably the closest to the mark, maybe with some later pick swaps thrown in as well.6 and 18 will get it done if you want it.
We haven't got any later picks but have future picks.Probably the closest to the mark, maybe with some later pick swaps thrown in as well.
The biggest question I'm hearing is you guys love Sam Lalor and Finn O'Sullivan, if you guys don't want pick 2 then you are not going to get your second player, with the picks you have that is downright silly, forget the picks and get the best elite talent that you can get and get both of them if they are indeed the two, I know Jagga is in the frame so I guess that is interesting.6 and 18 will get it done if you want it.
Exactly how I have it! To the pick.Pravda Roo phantom, let me know what you think.

Hahahah all these people saying 2 for 6 and 18 is unders we want 6 and 10/11 and then start talking about next years points index. This shows that 6 and 25 is where it will be at to break even, even though its irrelevant in these pick swap negotiations. Love it
**** off campaigner.That's a good deal in this draft.
Don’t want it. 6/11 and its a deal. Thats fair.6 and 18 will get it done if you want it.
Shifters voice was in my head reading that. Cheers for that.Alix Tauru is a defender that has shown he can go forward and still do the same thing, at 193cm and still growing I don't know about being a medium anything, his potential and his combine results back up what recruiters have a very big tick for, he literally could be anything. As in midfielders {pace}, with lots of supporters its height when talking about key forwards, you've got to be 195cm or more, if your under that god help you.
Back to midfielders, look, if you have pace that's great, but if you don't its not a game breaker that lots of supporters think it is. The exact thing with key forwards, if you are 195 or more and are good that is a positive, if you are 200cm and are good then again its a positive, with midfielders and key forwards forget the pace and height thing and focus on the player, his ability and potentially what he is to become in the future.
Is that what we really need? A player who in my opinion marks like Nick Riewoldt, in general plays like James sicily and can do some of the things I've seen him do and just for kicks can go down to the forward line and do the same thing to opposition backmen.
I can see it now what shifter is going to say about him at draft time. "Here he is, I've been waiting for this boy, {gives a chuckle} his highlight reel is something else, watched this boy play, there's nothing he can't do, he can be a matchwinner this one and at 193cm and growing, he is going to be something else this boy, you just wat and see, a great pick up for whoever gets him"! Short answer, yes.
Richmond will not take 6+ kids in the draft. They will want pick 1 and 2, they will haveLets be honest here. Picking another mid at pick 2 will not help this club as much as trading for 6 picking tauru or armstrong and pick lets say 11(it wont be 11) for a berry or pick 18( much more realistic, no matter how much you hate the fact) for a whitlock brother or hopefully shanahan. Anyone who thinks otherwise and has been screaming for 1000 pages if we pick another mid i will spew up should do everyone a favour and go take a nap for the rest of the year.
Too many in here think that we need to win these pick swaps, there are 2 clubs in these negotiations. This isnt a d*ck swinging contest. Both clubs will do the deal thats even for both parties. Sliding 4 picks back getting a player we want and then picking a player at 18 is a win for us its right in the hitting zone for all the needs our list requires.
No thanks.6 and 18 will get it done if you want it.
6 & 18 is 's for pick 2.
6 & 11.
Thanks for outing yourself as a tuggers fanPravda Roo phantom, let me know what you think.

This is why I don't usually watch draft highlights until we pick our players. Now I have favourites and am invested in them. It's going to end in disappointment on draft night I know.
