"Pick 6 is a good starting point for Dan Rioli"

What alternative universe is this?

To be fair he did just win the B&F right?

 

[amazingjoshy]

To be fair he did just win the B&F right?

You think he's worth more than pick 6?

 

[Peptide Pig]

To be fair he was told to explore his options mid season and Richmond only wanted to retain Graham after Baker, Rioli and Bolton said they were keen to jump ship. I agree 2 years wouldn’t have been enough but 3 years perhaps with a games trigger for a fourth would have been a smarter deal for a very one dimensional player. You would hope Hall is plying his role within 2 years.

I didn’t want a bar of Graham but now he’s coming I obviously hope he goes well. Not a great sign given wooden spoon fans are so happy to see him go.

I would be very surprised if he’s getting a senior game in that 4th year. Which is fine as it means our young group has gone past him and he can bolster the WAFL Eagles. I wouldn’t even be surprised to see a Zac Langdon style pay out of his final year but that’s probably a bit pessimistic.

I can see him offering some value to the team over the next 1-2 years, so hopefully his deal is heavily front ended and whatever compo Richmond receive is factored into the Baker deal to decrease what we have to offer up.

 

[KERRPOW]

Just more evidence that the FA compensation system is irrecoverably broken

Band 3 was a stretch, band 2 is silly

Its probably due to his age and length of contract.

I cant imagine graham being on more than 700k a year.

 

[West123]

You think he's worth more than pick 6?

No. But if someone was after our B&F winner we'd talk tough too.

 

[amazingjoshy]

No. But if someone was after our B&F winner we'd talk tough too.

Umm....

 

[Get_The_Gaff]

You think he's worth more than pick 6?

Pick 6 includes Richmond paying a chunk of salary

 

[Cuzz09]

I think Botlon is worth more than Rioli

[6285sutto]

Why is there so little interest in Matt Owies?
Seems like he'd be best 22 in most teams.
If Eagles could get him for cheap/free, surely replaces Cripps this year?

 

[amazingjoshy]

They want more than pick 6. Pick 6 is "the starting point"

It is a very weird one.

I reckon clubs are just waiting for him to be delisted. Cannot see any reason a number of clubs don't pick him up for free.

So much for doing Richmond any favours

This is about right, means we've signed him to a reasonable contract too. Hopefully makes a few on here happier

"Some clubs wanting to slide will target St Kilda's picks and some clubs wanting to come up in the order will target St Kilda. I think picks 7 & 8 is a great position in this Draft."
@CalTwomey

Would we be happy to part with 3 for those 2 picks?

I'd be happy to receive one of them from Hawthorn

 

[Barrybran]

This should please the Richmond fans

 

[THE A5]

Has the AFL ever rejected a free agency approval? Feel like a total unnecessary process

 

[BartBart]

Agree that it feels about right.

 

[Cornelius Roy]

Agree it feels right but how do we go from free agency compo feeling like everyone getting overs to a pick being right a few days later. AFL is a ****ing rabble.

 

[Peptide Pig]

If it's just 3 for those 2 absolutely

If it's 3 and 14 I wouldn't be keen

3 and 23 could’ve been an option but not that it’s 26 probably not enough. Would we rather 6 + 10 than 7 + 8? The difference between 6 and 7 might be significant with the remaining top mids of that group. The two picks in a row is handy though too.

Just more evidence that the FA compensation system is irrecoverably broken

I feel like the AFL will react to this next year and we have missed the boat on the Free agency charity era. It would have been a big boost to our rebuild if we had some free agents leaving the club.

 

[Farang83150]

Free agency compo's complicated!
