List Mgmt. Dan Houston requests trade - but will stay if deal cannot be done

[Watto71]

Seriously if North offered pick 2 we would be nuts to say no.
We could then either split it
Or my preference take the best player that fills a hole on our list..
Watch the Cows enquire about pick 2 if we did land it lol

Our request for two firsts will be tested compared to what Richmond get for Dan Rioli. They compare closely:

- 27- 168 games- 2 x All-Australian
Dan Rioli- 27 yo- 183 games- 3 Premierships

Both are distributors off half back- our Dan is a better intercept marker.

Most AFL observers say Houston is the better player but it is marginal. I think both are contracted for several years.

So enough of the "woe is us" posting here. We will get a reasonable price for Dan and it will be very similar to whatever Richmond get. Or he stays.

I think Houston will choose north their contract offer would be far better then Carlton and I feel lifestyle is his main priority now,

I’d say theres a 1% chance of us getting two firsts. We’ll accept a first and probably an upgrade of second rounders, something like that

No way would I accept that.
Houston can stay

 

[Coobk001]

If Dan was a few years younger 2 1st rounders would have been more realistic.

I think there’s going to be some disappointed folk on here when the final deal is announced.

It's not just him and his ability though, it's the fact he's contracted for 3 years. To pry that sort of player out,we should be making them pay.

Houston is a far superior player.

It doesn't matter what you accept macca is around the mark & we generally deal when people want out.

Rioli can’t kick it like Dan$
Only real similarity is the position they play..

Hope Norfs land him now fk Caltank

AA is an individual award, premiership is a team award.

Houston is a great player, playing for a poorly coached team. Rioli was a good player, playing for a great team.

By this reasoning Nathan Broad is similar - 148 games, 3 premiership defender.

Come on now, you cannot tell me Dan Rioli is fit to tie Houston’s laces
