Review The Value of Tambling v Franklin

[blaisee]

Ignore what each did for their respective clubs, this is a bit of a joke about what each club got out of their departure.

Tambling
- End of first round compensation pick --> Gold Coast's Pick 20 in this year's draft
- pick 51 (McDonald...delisted)

Franklin
- Pick 19

So this means:​

Tambling = Picks 20 and 51​

Franklin = Pick 19​

We traded our compensation pick for pick 26 and second round compensation.

So including trades:​

Tambling = Picks 26, 31 and 51 (Elton, McIntosh, McDonald)​

Franklin = Picks 24 and 59​

​

Lol.​

I thought we got McBean for him

I thought we got McBean for him

Nah McBean was our second round pick

 

[NUFC Tiger]

I just noticed that Dean Polo isn't in that photo.

 

[juss]

Let it go.

Nah, in all fairness, it is a joke, the compo system is a joke and this is just another example of it.

Richie as a rookie, then play him out of the forward pocket? Turn him into a serviceable small forward with blistering pace, could it work??? I don't think so, but might be worth a shot for the lols if it did work.

He's not making it as an AFL footballer.

No, because he's poor mentally and even if he could be serviceable for a few games he would buckle under pressure very quickly.

The exact opposite of a Hardwick type

yeah but I can dream. What a waste of talent.

true, its a crying shame he didn't fulfil anywhere near his billing as the 'best indigenous player to play the game'.

And that title that will probably land with Lance Franklin.

Doubt it, Goodes still runs rings around him with regard to that.

 

[johnno77]

Doubt it, Goodes still runs rings around him with regard to that.

Buddy still has 9 years left to overtake him.

 

[T4P]

Buddy will never win a brownlow

 

[tugga]

Really poor choice of jeans.

or genes?

 

[johnno77]

Buddy will never win a brownlow

Nor will any other forward.

 

[Spluff]

Nor will any other forward.

 

[tigers_of_old_08]

Starting tomorrow.

 

[johnno77]

I wasn't saying it hasn't been done, I'm saying it wont happen again. At least not in this era.

That was a different era. Now only midfielders have any hope. It will take a monumental effort from a forward to even contend. If Wayne Carey couldn't win one, no forward stands a chance anymore.

 

[T4P]

Though I can see Sydney chucking buddy in their midfield and maybe, just maybe, him taking a goodes or richo-type role...

A Hawthorn supporting mate used to always cringe when they sent him further afield given the increased chances of him giving away stupid free kicks and 50's in more dangerous positions. It will be Interesting to see if the Swans can make that work.

Lol.​

Quick dude, get this faxed to TW so he can use it to real nail his new guru status as the list manager. Way ahead of his time, it wasnt a 5 year plan, it was a 15 year plan that had earmarked kids playing in junior leagues that Miller had seen and wanted to position us to be best placed to get them to tigerland. Bloody geniouses.

 

[WATIGE]

A chap by the name of Maurice has this sewn up forever and a day - although another bloke called Polly still wrankles at that. These newcomers - pffft.

 

[Turka]

It's good that Goodes has told Buddy to pull his head in, but he's a leopard.
Especially living in Bondi. If he plays elite footy for nine years, I'll eat his poxy hat.

Adam Goodes goes alright too

 

[_DBF_]

We will always try to kid ourselves..... 2 flags, and 4000000 goals speaks for itself ... but hey we got DMac

 

[Bo_Gas]

Whatever both clubs recieved for Buddy the bottom line is Hawthorn have 2 flags since, been in more finals series and we have zilch.

This thread or any reference to Tambling just further reminds me and other Richmond supporters about one of the softest, laziest footballers to ever wear a RFC jersey which would have been accepted at pick 62 but not at pick 2. I don't think any compensation would ever take that kind of shitty memory away.

Like Oakley Nicholls hahahahahaha

Sitting here in Adelaide and all the news is about Tambling and whether he's going to take up Adelaide's offer of being on their rookie list hahahahahaha

I'm suprised they offered him anything, I laughed so hard when he came to Adelaide - Makes it worthwhile being an Adelaide based Tiger Supporter!
