you've lost old man, hopper is going to the tiges. Geelong, so weak, so vulnerable. SO easy to steal a trade target right from under their nose.
Would take Dunkley over Hopper and Taranto any day, doubt it happens though.
Who knows? if we miss on the already known targets he might be an option.
I’ll call it nowIll call it now... we will get Parish at the end of next year as a RFA

We will get parish this year
Hey, I’m just manifesting the hopes of the Richmond nuffies that are wondering around.Gws need to shed cap they cant afford martins 1.2mil-not happening.
I wouldn’t be surprised if he meant Taranto.I just watched it, I don't think he's laughing because he's confident he's laughing because he knew he'd be asked. Then I think maybe he gets his wires crossed with taranto where he said he was coming home. Then he just says they'll try to make him a richmond player, which, of course, that's why they're meeting him.
Maybe he nominates richmond tomorrow, I mean nothing to stop him now that they're out of the finals campaign. But, I doubt the visit changes much
I'll take Damo over Ralph any day on their word
People give Damo a lot of flack, but he's very rarely wrong nowadays. Gone away from the big calls and just sticks to the facts.
They match every day of the week. 750k per year would be end of first round. They can do betterI wouldn’t be surprised if he meant Taranto.
Will GWS match? The timing is really weird for them.
Do they let Taranto go and try and get a end of first round draft pick compensation? And then trade hopper out and get our near end of first round draft pick?
Or match Taranto and then make Richmond trade their mid first round pick? Then they can maybe keep taranto knowing they’ll trade hopper out and have the salary cap space. Or Richmond pay up and then they can keep hopper. Or if both go, then their draft picks end up better.
Depends on the new coach and what he wants reallyParish might want to come but essendon would want a huge haul to trade him this year. Cheaper to wait 12 months.
Both Taranto and Hopper aren't free agents. The Tigers will have to trade for them both.They match every day of the week. 750k per year would be end of first round. They can do better
Key forwards are worth more than mids so i wouldnt pay as much for hopper as jez.
On the future 1st its more my preference yes it can pay off eg holmes but it can also backfire (see coll trading an FR1 as a top 5 pick)..with our ageing list we might drop at some point so id not want to risk trading the FR1. He is worth more than 18 alone though. Id offer say 18 + 36 or 18 + a FR2 (maybe throw in our R3 if we have to) but not 18 + a future 1st. If thats their price id let them keep him or find another club.
Id pursue mitchell 100 x times before worpel (not that i want mitchell either but just saying).
How many have met with us over the years... I remember Watts for one was blown up. Just due diligence to look at all options id have thought.I have no idea which way it will go but I think it would be negligent of Hopper if he is leaving to not meet all potential suitors. Doesn’t mean he’s cooled necessarily on us. It sounds like there’s been a lot of work put in to land him for a while. All I’m saying is that it’s rare we don’t get our man.
Parish might want to come but essendon would want a huge haul to trade him this year. Cheaper to wait 12 months.
Parish linked to Haw today...
Theres many options (just not all at the same quality level)..crouch will go, mitchell probably will, dunkley is still unsigned etc. Thats before you look at kids like bruhn who are clearly available. Fwiw i think we will get hopper anyway. But theres lots of midfield options.
Ruck is a bigger worry for me as apart from grundy theres no real A grade rucks likely to be on the trade table.
I don't get why they'd go for Parish yet force out Mitchell, 0-0 draw

We should start texting random s* in too.If you’re talking about from SEN this morning, that was literally a random who texted in saying “Parish to Hawthorn”. Even the host of the trade segment had heard nothing about that.
Sometimes I think it new coach in wanting his players. Look at what seems to be happening at North. Is Parish that similar to Mitchell? Im not sure I can say I have really compared them.
