Journos saying we want 2 first rounders, it’s what has been reported.
He is contracted for multiple years, is a duel AA and probably our best player. Why wouldn’t we want 2 first rounders

And 28 years old. Best years behind him, and a HB flanker.
Only got in the team because of you know who also.
Not really. Your two firsts would get it done for Houston. It wouldn’t be close for petracca
Overrated failed midfielder.
Give me Bailey Smith any day of the week over Houston.

Do you know what type of player Houston is? Coz he has never played midfield
He's only recently turned 27.

Oh golly....
Lies. May is not recent. And when he starts playing at another club he'll be 28 early in the season.
He has and he failed at it. Geez don't even know you're own players. Do some homework.

Oh I forgot some random on Bigfooty knows our players more than us port supporters
Was drafted as a forward, played bad as a forward in his first year so they moved him back where he has remained his whole career.
Try again though
Well you got the HB flanker part right at least.

He has three years left on his deal. Why wouldn't they?
Because Carlton want him for nothing

Doesn't sound like he will be a chance to get to Carlton given they won't pay or don't want to pay what North will.
North probably the better play for him career wise anyway, given they will eventually bounce and be a decent side.

Houston is worth more than Daniel Rioli who is literally the same age as him (one month apart).
So whatever you rate Rioli as being worth, add 50% and you'll get Houston's value.

Yes, but you can't benchmark against crazy. Houston will go for less than Rioli because Gold Coast are crazy
Carlton: We're not paying nothing, he's nearly 29 and it's all over!
Port: You'll pay the world, he's 26 and 16 months, just hitting his stride!

What you're not factoring in is Powa obviously aren't desperate to keep Houston IMO, they're quite happy to let him go for the collateral he brings in to enable them to use it on Luko and any other trade targets they have lined up, also his salary off the books helps in their quest for Perryman, Cumming, Luko and any other primary targets they're chasing.
Interested clubs know this just like most Big Footy posters.

Given you are responding to a comparison of the values of Rioli and Houston, are you by extension implying that Richmond are desperate to keep Rioli, because thats the only difference you seem to be suggesting there is.
North - we will give you our F1st for pick 12.
Gold Coast - Done!
Exactly.
Gold Coast aren’t just going to do that trade with Carlton when other clubs could offer more for their pick 12.

Richmond are clearly in the early stages of a rebuild, Powa are looking to top up with mature aged players for another run at a Premiership, therein is the big difference.
