Mate he is terrible by foot. In this day and age this is a massive liability. Brions left him on his own as they were happy for him to get the ball.

If Richards leaves, we should get Owies. If we can get him cheap, just do it
I’m pretty sure he meant at the stoppage, not coming out of defence. Our defenders are mostly very good ball users.

Why the hell would we want Owies?
We have plenty of small forwards as well as mids that can play forward
We need mids and we need a young Key Forward
my carlton mates would be wrapped if he left carlton. they don't rate him.

The whole reason Richards would leave is that it wouldn't be worth it to us to either give him a longer term contract or guaranteed game time in the seniors because we have too many small forwards.
I don't understand why we would be recruiting another one if Richards were to go.
We'd be redirecting our resources elsewhere.
Personally, I think we should be looking and moving Richards up to the wing and encouraging him to have a massive pre-season of running to get to that point. Sidey to play tagger/half back next year and Josh Daicos to spend more time in the middle.

We need to target a key backman to replace Murphy. Once Murphy retired, our structure broke down. It was so visible. We also need to find 1 more young big bodied midfielder. If we can stop the ball coming into our backing so quickly from a centre bounce, this will relieve the pressure on our backmen. Hence, it all starts from the centre.
I would also look at a few position changes. Perhaps Pendles playing halfback distributor or half forward, sidebottom as a tagger, crisp off halfback, maybe Q on the wing.
If we can turn Noble into pick 20 (given it will end up pick 24ish) and perhaps a F2 from port for Richards, we could perhaps use our own F1 and move up the draft board this year and have 2 picks in the first round. Given we will want McGuane next year, loading up on 2 round picks for next year would be advantageous.
However, I like the development of Allan, Parker & Harrison. Allan and Parker will have a bigger part in our season next year. Perhaps McInnes needs a positional change. I would throw him in the centre at VFL level and see how he handles that. but I think the writing is on the wall with Macrae......

No-ies to Owies - except that it would further weaken Carlol.

It would be just like Carlscum to off load their best small forward & keep their plodders

Thought Nick alone would want players to come to us. Doesn't seem like it.
