Nothing I wrote was untrue.
True or not, perhaps reconsider your wording next time you address other posters.
Thanks.

It's a super draft to other clubs. GC pretty obviously just want Lombard in the draft.If GC bow to this offer or anything more than pick 6 (ridiculous overs as is) in a super draft, there needs to be an inquiry into their list manager and their Football department.
It’s flawed because it doesn’t suit others arguments of course. Apparently you can’t make comparisons. The majority of opposition posters will let you know a players worth. They know better.How is it a flawed argument ?
Exact same position a similar player being traded for a similar pick as a comparison.
Compared to a draft pick which has every possibility to be a fail or not play 100 games
I would say less than 50% of 1st round picks would play 100 games and the recruiters that spend years watching and researching them before being drafted would have put the exact same effort in the past as they do now,
Rioli & Saad trade values are a perfect comparison
Yeah, we’ve been begging for this for years and crickets. The AFL are the ones installing these clowns in the first place, so they won’t question it.This is what happens when you allow clubs to ransack you for peanuts for years.
Can't help but feel that Richmond have wildly overstepped the mark with this, but I'm also not surprised given GC's recent terrible trading history.

The picks are still worth what theyre worth. They could push pick 6 into next year and easily find more suitable assets for Rioli if they wanted.It's a super draft to other clubs. GC pretty obviously just want Lombard in the draft.
Getting overs is one thing but Richmond's requests are ridiculous. Meanwhile, West Coast fans are being told two first rounders that are likely going to land below 15 is too much despite being a better player, playing a position in demand and also being contracted. If someone were to say Barrass was worth pick 6 I would take it and run. Rioli's value is lower than Barrass' value.Imma use that house analogy from the post above.
It’s the best way to explain to muppets why there is a premium.
No (sane) person values Rioli at pick 6 if he was OOC or Richmond were pushing him out. 100% agree.
But if Richmond didn’t want to leave, if someone wants “the house” that wasn’t listed, they gots to pay.
Just use 6 on Travaglia. That should stir the pot a bit.This is what happens when you allow clubs to ransack you for peanuts for years.

Yes and if the right price acceptable to Richmond is offered, the deal goes through. Even if it is a premium. No problemSurely we’ve moved past the ‘Richmond aren’t interested in selling’ narrative.
It’s pretty clearly false. The club and the fans are not one single entity.
If they weren’t interested in selling, they wouldn’t be selling.
Richmond aren’t kicking him out, but they see the opportunity he presents.
I would too for a 29 year old with a history of a bad back and at best 60 good games left in him.If someone were to say Barrass was worth pick 6 I would take it and run.
Well I thought you weren’t allowed to make comparisons. But apparently you can now. But when you do you need to compare apples to apples. Just get on the Barass thread and have a grizzle there.Getting overs is one thing but Richmond's requests are ridiculous.

But everyone knows Richmond would prefer pick 6 to Rioli.Yes and if the right price acceptable to Richmond is offered, the deal goes through. Even if it is a premium. No problem
If the price offered is unacceptable to Richmond, Rioli stays . Quite a simple proposition really.
It’s not a case of “if they weren’t interested in selling”. You’d be fool not to listen to any offer from a potential buyer. There was never a “for sale” sign around his neck. It was GC coming to see if they could buy him.
The answer was, “ here’s the price” so it’s ok or “too much”. Ok bye. Daniel stays.
Alex Neal-Bullen probably would have been a first rounder if he wasn't 29 going on 30.I could have won the Richmond B& F this year.
By your logic for we should have received a 1st Rounder for ANB.
Who is “everyone”? Everyone not associated with Richmond you mean. Who hope like hell we won’t get any more than that.But everyone knows Richmond would prefer pick 6 to Rioli.

So if it’s just Pick 6 does Rioli stay?Who is “everyone”? Everyone not associated with Richmond you mean. Who hope like hell we won’t get any more than that.
Most Richmond people see pick 6 as the starting point for negotiations. More the meat, now we wait for the gravy. We might get an early 20s pick and give a 40s pick back. Still plenty of time. Most of the trade is done, just need the other little bits to get sorted out.
It’s not an auction. We aren’t bidding at all. We have him contracted for another 3 years.
If the deal does suit us, Daniel stays.
The Suns turned pick 4 and some junk into 4x first round academy players and pick 13 this year. Amazing how everyone seems to forget that massive winThis is what happens when you allow clubs to ransack you for peanuts for years.

If everyone has a right to an opinion, then you have a right to respect and try to find a common ground with their opinion. Otherwise, what point is there engaging?Nothing I wrote was untrue.
Keyboard recruiters, well they are aren’t they? They’re aren’t actual recruiters. So I was accurate with that description.
Minnows. Yes, once again they aren’t big shot actual recruiters. So minnows is quite apt.
Yes they can express their opinions. Opinions aren’t facts are they?
Just as they have a right to express their opinion, so do I.
Food for thought.
This might turn into the worst trade deal of all time.
He’s your typical solid half back running flanker. There’s 20 similar players around the league and he’s 28 best yesr.
The deal has to suit both clubs, points next year are what we likely wantWho is “everyone”? Everyone not associated with Richmond you mean. Who hope like hell we won’t get any more than that.

alright mate, we heard ya the first timeThe deal has to suit both clubs, points next year are what we likely want
why do you care so much bro? Its not even your team hahaI don’t get it.
Noble should be a second rounder max.
Rioli is not worth pick 6 as long as my arse longs to the ground.
They should take 6 to the draft, keep 13 and hope Lombard gets through if not use 13
