Confirmed Daniel Rioli - Traded with picks 51, 61, 70 & 76 to GC for picks 6 & 26

700k at 4 years probably doesn't get it.

$850K gets Band 1
$700k would have got band 2

Love Dan Rioli, always will. Tries his guts out every week and has done so all his career.

GC will enjoy him, and we get a really, really good trade result for him.

Win/Win in my view.

The weight of the win is heavily favoured to Richmond in this trade.

$850K gets Band 1
$700k would have got band 2

850k over 6 years gets 1
700-750 over 6 years gets band 2.

If we were close to band 3 compo then the only reason I can think of that we didnt do some shenanigans is Richmond werent keen or the AFL wouldnt have ticked it off for whatever reason

Not happy

Should have kept him till least 2027.

Never gonna celebrate anyone signing a long contract anymore

It's not fair that only some teams (Geelong, Richmond) get the opportunity to exploit Gold Coast. Every other team in the comp should get compensation to make up for it.

 

[Kane McGoodwin]

It's pretty clear what happened here, the Suns feel bad for stealing your coach so have given you a pick we couldn't use anyway

Pick 6 for Rioli
Pick 23 for Dimma

We will give you a pick if you take Nicks.

Yeah starting from now Gold Coast needs to put their foot down.

Rankine?

 

[THE_GUN]

Im convinved Richmond & Gold Coast are colluding to manipulate the AFL

Prestia & Lynch from Richmond to win flags
Dimma & Rioli to GC to win flags

and in 5 years GC will send Humphrey & MacAndrew to Richmond to again win flags


Just not fair

 

[Kane McGoodwin]

Rankine?

We paid pick 5.

Compared to other Suns trades, we paid up.
