Agree that a pick in the 30's is fair. Amon pick is too much (especially if it's end of first round), #53 isn't enough. We'll need to get a bit creative.

a few hard pressed supporters and a sour grapes press release from West Coast
If you wanted to keep Rioli , pay him more money, it's pretty simple.
The club supported Rioli through his drug ban issues, not out of the bottom of their tender heart, but because they made a business decision that Rioli would make them a better team in future.

Done. We'll throw in Butters and Rozee while we're at it.

I am normally (even with WC players) of the view that a player is usually duty bound to seek the best deal for themselves. Clubs are usually pretty ruthless for their own best deal, so to should players.
In this case however, the club showed extraordinary faith, went above and beyond. Extraordinarily poor IMO
Let's hope he doesn't **** up his 4th chance

With the worst coach in the league in charge, I doubt our future second will be a pick in the 30's. I hope Port don't touch our future picks with a ten foot pole this trade period.

Either way, he's got a young family and who knows what his career prospects look like after football, can't blame him for looking to cash in. And as disappointing as it is for Eagles fans, we aren't going to get the best out of him while languishing at the bottom of the table, he's a cherry on top player. If Port move back up the ladder, he could win important games for them. At the Eagles, he would just lessen the margin a little.

I don't think he is worth that much he certainly has not returned to the same player he was before the ban.
I would say a late 2nd round pick or a equivalent player.

Gross - hope a trade can’t be agreed upon.
I think it will something like....
Rioli +38 for the Amon compo pick
Values him at around pick 35

So Amon gets basically same contract as Rioli yet his compensation pick is better than what Port should give up for Rioli? How does that work Port fans?

What if people think the thread is about Maurice Rioli Jnr?
Think the clarification is warranted

Only one player goes by the name of Junior Rioli, done for cultural reasons following his father's death. There's no risk of confusion, so why should we be disrespectful just for the sake of it?

If by 'basically the same contract' you mean $150k less a year for one less year, sure. Remind me not to let you negotiate my next contract.

If Amon is end of first round then that for Rioli + 38 is pretty good for both clubs.
