Trade Requested Shai Bolton [UFA 2028] - Wants to join the Dockers

[Grrr]

Superstar is a stretch

Have you forgotten his game against you in '23.

Round 13 v Fremantle, Optus Stadium: 33 disposals, 16 contested possessions, three marks, 11 inside-50s, six clearances, three centre clearances, one goal, six score involvements, five tackles, 925 metres gained.

or vs Swans: 31 disposals, game-high 17 contested possessions, three marks, nine inside-50s, nine clearances, an equal game-high five centre clearances, a game-high four goal assists, game-high 10 score involvements, four intercepts, three tackles and team-high 598 metres gained.

He will have a ball with your strong midfield. Can't believe you are hesitating for a few draft pics 11 vs 18.
Which goes both ways if it comes down to it, if we take 18 so be it. I don't want him gone, but I want what is best for the player so we have to take what we can get.

Peter Bell living in fairly land strong deal lol 10 and 18 which in reality becomes 15 and 23. For a match winner and player that's 25 and just hitting his peak and can break a game open in 5 minutes.

 

[Elton Johns Wig]

Compare it to players moving this draft. p17 Bailey smith (23), p28 Alex Neal Bullen(28), p67 Jack Darling (32). p18 is about right, any more than p10 is way overs, two of them together is club sabotage.

Bailey Smith is worth more than P17, ANB was unders, Darling was looked after for good service.

 

[Elton Johns Wig]

Dude. You didn't answer his question at all.

Whats up with that?

Can you not read boncer? I absolutely did answer.

2 mid firsts. It's literally in the last line. I know it's tough to get to the end of tweets when people put actual information in, but I was providing context.

Apologies, I'll just say a number next time without explanation.

Well it doesn't because you never had access to those players anyway.

Who is going to be more upset if this trade doesn't go through. Fremantle supporters or Richmond supporters. Fremantle get to go to a Super draft with 10,11 and 18 while Richmond have to keep a checked out Shai Bolton

And let's say you have a good year and reach a prelim and fail by a goal. Will you be so content then.

Just cause you get Shai doesn't mean its gonna be any better. Im genuinely ok if we miss out on Shai. 3 firsts is great in a super draft.

Your in a premiership window let's not forget not a rebuilding side only missing a few pieces I'll say it's a huge loss for you. Missed out on finals again heap of pressure. Heads will roll next year if it happens again.

and you finish bottom with Bolton and Rioli playing

Fair lol in what way unrealistic.

You make it sound like he kicks 40+ goals every year, and has kicked 50+

Bolton is 25 not 29
Rioli I'm happy to keep
2 of our best.

In all the Richmond fans hypothesis, if we don't take Shai Bolton we DEFINITELY miss finals. And Shai would have taken us over the top.

Such fabricated scenarios to suit your selling points. It's like a car salesman telling you the car you buy from him will definitely get you laid.

What small forward kicks 50+
Bolton kicked 30+ this year and that's rotation in the midfield to

It depends on what the people we drafted have done next year.

If they contributed, then I think we will be fine.

You said he was living in FAIRLY land.

Na not telling you nothing open your eyes take of the blinkers his a match winner and breaks games open.

No hostility here mate. My angry posts are much worse than this. A little bit of exasperation maybe.

We're still young, we're only just opening the window now. We'd obviously love Shai.... For 10 and 18. Anything more is just an irresponsible use of assets.

If Shai falls through, we'll take the picks to the draft. Take 10, trade 11 to the highest bidder for assets next year, take 18 and our second rounder, then check-out. We'll be in a better position long-term, with a stronger chance at a flag with a slightly longer wait.

We'll be able to grab a Berry or a Hannaford and I'm sure there's at least a modest solution somewhere in the state leagues. Keep assets for next year for Warner or round two with Shai.

Hey funny story.

Freo fielded a younger team in the last round than Richmond did.
