If the Chad Warner rumors are reality then Dockers gotta move on from this. Bolton feels like a panic move. Dockers have many years to get this team where it needs to be. 1 more year waiting for Warner/Kozzie isnt the end of the world here

For 2025 its time to play NOD and Erasmus and see what they can do. As far as HF for 2025 just keep with the Frederick/Switta duo. As for small forward, pray Walters gets back to some fitness + seek out a stopgap in the mould of Matt Owies or Curtis Taylor

Trade on pick 10 and 16 for future firsts, so you can go at next years off season with 4 first round picks to use to get Kozzie/Warner

We need to start competing now though, and Bolton is the player that helps us.
 
Will be one of the first deals done.
No chance.

Even if we agree today the AFL will hold this one off to keep Richmond fans engaged.

The Rioli one will be the earlier one done of ours as GC need to flog off the spare picks potentially to help the Houston deal.
 
I think by nature of being the type thats better in better teams, he's probably in the top 5 of most if not all teams, so yes.
The fact that he isnt the number 1 target to stop at Freo means that I really believe that if you do the Pick 10 and 11 deal, by the end of next year you will see all the posters on the Tiger's board calling all our recruiting staff morons because they let him go for next to nothing. He will look fantastic rolling through the centre for a rotation with Brayshaw, Serong and Young.

I want him gone because he is not the player we need. In a shit side, he is a 30 - 80 range player in the league. In a good side that is contending, he can turn up and be top 15.

You need to show some patience with this list because your window is absolutely enormously long. Id rather wait a year and get the best available then panic and get the Start Now option

Warner is a top 20 player. Bolton a top 100. Id want the top 20

We traded Shultz & a couple of 2nds last year into this draft and it cost us a spot in the finals. Spending some this season isn’t going to wreck us.
 
Does it worry you at all that the culture will are building will be eroded by having a fwd flanker the highest paid player in the team.
He won’t be, Richmond will be smoothing a bit off that to make it so his pay is in the right spot. Even if there is a portion of his “sign on” bonus paid by Freo.
