News the double deal?

[Jindrrk]

Kelly will decide where he goes, not GWS. Your points are based on the premise of an auction. There will be no auction. You don't seem to be understanding this fact according to your reasoning. Consider this and readjust accordingly.

Players always get to where they want to on the club they have nominated. Just will be a matter of how so you're right.

If what Maclure said is correct.....GWS seem a bit grumpy and going by what the CEO said a few weeks back theyre definitely going to play hard ball and I doubt our club are going to bend over backwards either. All we need now is the nomination from Josh.

I hope we are being focused and smart here. I don't want to be sitting here in 10 months posting something about "better to have had a bird in one hand than two in a bush".

Seeing we are getting this double deal. It means we are essentially in the premiership window. Why not add Ablett on a 2 year deal to make us certainties.

It holds significant relevance for richmond fans.

What people are forgetting here is that the J. Kelly $1mill p/a deal will probably be a base deal of $700k with the remainder to be subsidised ala TV show deal or a Physio Assistant position with the Groin guru to the vicinity of $300k p/a.

Remember the Judd deal where he was getting paid $400k p/a by visy as a Storeman for working 4 hours per week. $2000 p/hr is pretty good money

Yeah thanks, we need all the luck we can get to finish bottom 4 when he moves to north.

If you have any surplus luck, could you send it our way because we'll need it if we want to finish bottom 4 when he moves to north.

Yeah, but we'll still need some luck to finish bottom 4 though, you were correct in your assertion there.

Yeah I realise you were referring to kelly there.

Was just making a joke off the cuff.

Somebody stop me, I'm out of control.

Nah, keep going. The 'I'm not sure where I am or what I'm saying, punch drunk' style is, sincerely, very endearing.

Think of us as a refuge from recent batterings. Naturally, with our game in a fortnights time, you'll need to go home, but till then I reckon you can hang around here where there's an upbeat, but not over-the-top or ungrounded, vibe. Forget 'misery loves company', we're here for you man. (Except for the rabid anti-Richmond guys, of course.)

Who are you and for how long have you been following me?

Apocalyptic scenes on the richmond board, you gotta save me.

Misery IS my company. Refer to avatar.

I'm all for 'spending up' especially as these 2 fill one of our voids.

We have significant space NOW so front load the hell out of them and it won't kill us later. Cap will be going up soon as well.

The rumours for Martin pick up, I am starting to come around to the idea. The draft is supposed to be deep, especially the start of it. A draft expert said on Titus that McGrath would have gone around pick 5 if he was in this year's draft. At 26 as a restricted free agent, we can pay enough to Martin we get him for nothing. We have to trade for Kelly.

I am presuming a fair trade will be approximately a first round and second round pick. This is based on Jaeger and Treloar, who were both different for different reasons. On one hand Kelly is better, on the other the money is so much different if there is no deal he may well nominate himself to get the better option.

Also, we aren't going to afford both. Sorry guys that isn't an option.

So there are the options, what would you prefer? I'm not even sure how to vote...
