Yep we keep him, win/win

You're not keeping him. You know that and I know that. A balance will be struck.

I think you may be in for a shock

Richmond have said pretty clearly if the value isn’t there in the trade then they will hold Bolton to his contract.

Every club says that, they have to say it. Trades still get done

Exactly - Bravado and front to save face - "We reluctantly accepted pick 10 and 16 - for Shai's mental health".

Rankin went for 6 to 8, out of contract. 9 alone is fair for Bolton, 16 is enough overs due to contact

Rankine went for 5, and at the time was half the player he is now.

A trade will get done. Because Freo have made it clear they will get the trade done.

Exactly - Bravado and front to save face - "We reluctantly accepted pick 10 and 16 - for Shai's mental health".

If you can't fetch us a top-5 pick we will probably reluctantly accept 9 & 10, and before half time of R1 you'll understand you got a bargain.

Freo's not going to walk away because they want to keep pick 10 rather than pick 16 in the most even section of an even draft.

The obligation is on the suitor to get the deal done. Everyone seems to understand this except Western Australians. You seem to be obsessed with 'winning' the trade on marginal pick differences, when in actuality you will win by getting Bolton.

100.
It’s sad Freo supporters are so hung up on what their club will pay for Bolton the actual joy of getting a player who will make a significant difference to their push towards a first premiership has been totally forgotten.
