I will personally be upset to lose Richards, as he showed a fair bit this season, but you can't begrudge a guy getting paid.

I say this as one of his biggest fans this year. This is a fair decision for his career.
He is at an age and list position that he needs more surety, which he will get at Port. We have too many small forwards, it was hard to fit them in when fit.
Can play! Hope he kills it for them.

He'll be in their best team. Wish him he very best. He'll improve port, and looking forward to watching him.

Will be an interesting watch - the class displayed in his first couple of appearances really stood out.
We’re ok in the small forwards department.
I prefer losing him and getting Dan. So thanks for requesting a trade.
Will be slightly interested to see how he goes in to develop now. More out of curiosity than anything else.
But we offered him a more than generous contract for his lack of games and he knocked us back.

Yeah, took a huge step forward compared to his first season.
I think he'll thrive with regular opportunity

I'll be watching him closely like I do Henry and ginnivan
Fair to say I'm off joey Richards
Absolutely bizarre a fringe player like him walks out even with a contract and opportunities

I wish him all best but was going to struggle to get games barring injury. Out of left field if I had to choose between Richards and H Harrison I would pick Harrison every day of week even if not exactly like for like
What??? Keep Richards .... and not have Houston???

I think it will become more common.

Not really, at his age he needs to be taking all the opportunities he can. If he was younger sure, he may well have bided his time for Elliot to retire. Sad to see him go, thought he showed real promise, but I don't blame him at all.

It was never a serious offer from Collingwood. Long known that he would play his part in the Houston trade.
Fly had a good laugh at the B&F with his comment.

As much as I was keen to see Joey's development I cannot be upset with his departure as it resulted in us getting a two time All Australian player. Goodbye and good luck, Joe.

He made the decision first day of trade period. Days after the copeland I'm pretty sure he would have known before then though.
But given his age, more opportunities would be his focus, so I don't blame him.

at 0:56 talks about copeland night and fly's speech, it made him sway a bit to staying. But in the end he chose more opportunities.
