If Bolton nominates a club publicly that means said club is balls deep into getting the deal done.I would think that the amount of media work being done from the Bolton side (as distinct from the Richmond or Fremantle sides) is showing the hand a bit.
Richmond and Freo are passengers in this. Bolton wants to come back to WA, Ryan Daniels has reported that he has approached the clubs.
Fremantle is heavily down the path with Chad Warner and that's where their focus will be.
The very interesting thing will be which of Richmond or Sydney want the top ten picks first, since both will probably walk away if the other gets them and neither will see anything close to two top ten picks end of 2025 for those same players.
So I'd expect Sydney to knock Richmond out of the door to get past them to Freo to make the trade first.
Interesting no club has been named yet.
Reckon it will come out next week if Freo and West Coast aren’t playing finals.
