Haha you don't have a clue man.. he honestly isn't better.I rate him as a better one on one defender than rance but he is not the all-round player rance is.

Considering he takes those "gorilla" key forwards I would say he is. I'm not saying it like he's miles ahead of Rance, he's just able to play that role well which allows rance to intercept and create going the other way.Haha you don't have a clue man.. he honestly isn't better.
Richmond offered him up to you guys (I know he had a medical with Bris) as we needed a pick for Yarran. You guys prioritised Bastinac instead.I believe we made a big play for him a few seasons back but dont see us going into the contest for him again this time around.
Grabbing Marcus Adams over the off-season would just about rule out any interest you guys would have I think. Can see Bulldogs, Saints and North enquiring, based on current list needsI believe we made a big play for him a few seasons back but dont see us going into the contest for him again this time around.

Yeah the 3 teams I listed are all pretty well known to have decent cap space. Even with North grabbing Polec, Tyson, Pittard, etc. they'd still have a decent amount of room. Saints spent 700k on Hanners, but would surely have plenty too. Dogs have made attempts at Hurley and Wingard in the past few years, and have had major retirements / trades (like Roughead was restricted free agent, meaning he was among the top earners at the club) so would have a huge amount of space. If any wanted to make a big offer to Astbury that Richmond doesn't want to match, they easily could, it's just a matter of how much he's valued at.Agreed
Wouldnt blame him if there is a good deal out there for him
Personally i cant see Richmond matching anymore than $500k for Astbury with Garthwaite waiting in the wings and seen as the ready replacement, Specially with a year under his belt this year with Rance being out for the yearYeah the 3 teams I listed are all pretty well known to have decent cap space.

I'd imagine it just comes down to whether Richmond wants him to stay, as he does strike me as a loyal player
Rance makes him better than what he is. Wouldn’t care if he left TBH. We have some good young KPDs coming through.
$$$$$$$Why would he leave......
$$$$$$$
I reckon a difference of 150k a year between clubs offers would get him to move$$$$$$$

Eg) tigs offer 500-550k
Opposition club offer 650-700k per year
And could even see oppo clubs offer more
Yeah an end of first rounder would be probably the compoIf they offered more i would be very happy to see him move meaning with that sort of contract a good compo pick would be on the cards
North are all over Brandon Ellis as a free agent. He’s doing well to push up his price over the last couple of weeks. Unlikely North will target Astbury as well.Yeah an end of first rounder would be probably the compo
I’d still rather Astbury from your point of view
And wouldn’t be against north offering him that amount to get him as a free agent

Yes is the short answerNorth could do with Ellis and Astbury but do they have any $$ left after lashing out on super stars like Polec, Hall and Pittard?
