It depends on what he wants to do. If he wants to leave essedon and he's not bothered by 5 goal run ons by the opposition, and just wants to get a kick and a nice paycheck, then Carlton is probably his best option.

Richmond's back half is not for the feint of heart. It's do or die in there. However, the rewards of being involved in possibly a historic premiership dynasty may be an attractive proposition.

If we have signaled interest, it means Houli isn't planning to go around again next year. Saad would fit right into that role.

Also, let's not forget Essendon owes us because we gave them Premiership hero Jacob Townsend and basically an entire football department Rutten/Caracella/Richardson.

We may be able to do a trade involving player Eggmolesse-Smith (like for like) plus a late 2nd or 3rd round pick steak knives.

Success vs Money, what does he want?

From what ive heard about him the Muslim community is a bit part of his life. Seeing the way Richmond have supported and embraced Houli might be a factor. Plus the allure of playing in a flag would be tempting for any player

Just a feeling though. Ive heard rumours that he ia definitely going to Richmond and rumours that he definitely isnt going to Richmond.

Yep Richmond would be very enticing.

Chance at a flag whilst getting payed good dollars also get to play a long side Houli just hope Richmond give us a fare trade if he goes there

Ruined by injury? Spare me! Yes you had some injuries but so do all teams.

Pretty sure you had close to your best 22 playing towards the end of the season and your team was soulless!

This is what the simple fans don't get - when you have 6-8 of your best 22 missing for big chunks of the season, your season is considered injury ravaged and you are up against it. I don't care what team you are. Then you eventually get those players back and they are underdone and your team is likely no chance to play finals because of the impact from missing those players.

Tell me - how do Geelong go without Selwood, Hawkins, Blicavs, Tuohy, Henry, Rohan, Dahlhaus, Duncan? Because that's the equivalent of what we've had out of the side. Go and try on another one.

Regardless, the point is that Carlton supporters can quit chirping about how good their list is, because you finished 11th and are guilty of overrating your list just as much as any Essendon supporter is. Pot. Kettle. Black. Fact is, both our clubs are shit as things stand right now.

Do you mean like how Richmond went for a run of games in the middle of the 2020 season without-- Trent Cotchin, Dave Astbury, Dion Prestia Shane Edwards, Bachar Houli & Toby Nankervis?
