Trade Requested Ivan Soldo [requested a trade to Victoria, linked to St Kilda]

He was worth what Richmond would let him go for. Yes we overpaid, but we literally had no rucks left on our list so it was an important move.

Wise words, a player is worth what the selling club is willing to let him go for. Some fans out west are going to realise this soon.

He doesn't deserve our women.

They're comely and salt of the earth types

Is that a way of saying Bogan without actually offending the local ladies ?

Surprised Geelong aren't in the mix for Soldo, feels like he would suit a lot of their parameters and wouldn't cost a heap. Maybe the missus said no.

I think they prefer the mobile athletic style ruckman rather than the big Soldo types

I dunno, was that real? or just media beat up because they imagine Darcy could be gettable and from the outside would be a good replacement?

Well he was a young ruck who looked like becoming one of the A-graders in the comp, injury has ruined that.
