It's not that we won 3 flags, it's the way we did it that they didn't like. Like I've said many times before, Brisbane and Geelong won 3, Hawthorn 4, and no one gave a shit, why do you think that is?We won 3 flags ...we weren't supposed to do that ....AFL didn't like it ..it's been payback time since
I just want his spot available for youth. I agree and just think his compo pick will be used to move up in the draft or traded for futures pick.Port didn't want him a couple of years ago, RFC told Jack "Dusty" Graham to explore his options and thank Christ Mini got the job. I want the guy out of our team. If he stays, he's undroppable.
500k 4 years = compo pick we wont even use on a player. ....maybe to send Suns way for their academy picks
Where exactly did you say that? Can't have been here as you only have 7 posts and I reckon I've seen every one of themIt's not that we won 3 flags, it's the way we did it that they didn't like. Like I 've said many times before, Brisbane and Geelong won 3, Hawthorn 4, and no one gave a shit, why do you think that is?

If they're not paying him big money we're not getting the typenof compo everyone was hoping for. Simple
what was Cummings contract?People need to understand that with Graham it was us or WCE, there was no real bidding war. Cumming had both Port & Adelaide bidding for him as well as GWS as well as getting a 6 year deal, which means he gets maximum value for that whereas Graham is on 4 years.
All that forces up his value therefore his compensation is higher than what 2e got for Graham. There is no conspiracy or secret herbs and spices involved, we got what Graham is valued at.
We'll use that pick in combination with others to get better picks either this year or next and will also be able to put more time into a younger and hopefully better player than Graham would have been.

Geelong and Port have won flags.That’s more than Geelong gave for Dangerfield or Cameron. It’s more than Port gave for JHF. It’s more than Freo gave for Luke Jackson.
Bolton is an excitement machine who can do anything. He’s also a pretty terrible kick.
Don’t get me wrong, he will be a great asset for Freo and we should drive a hard bargain, but we are not trading Dustin Martin circa 2017.

It was a while ago now, somewhere on the Geelong vs Richmond thread.Where exactly did you say that?
The club is now run by a bunch of amateurs.Sheer incompetence!
We are going to be so under the cap why couldn't our club say to the eagles up his contract we'll pay X amount towards it so we can get a better compo pic.
so next year for TT and Hopper not this year.Richmond has begun talks on deals which will deliver the club an historic package of early draft picks to help turbocharge the Tigers’ rebuild.
The Tigers are preparing to secure a suite of seven early choices which could see Adem Yze’s men hold selections 1, 6, 10, 14, 18, 20 and 24 by the trade deadline next Wednesday night.
Richmond also secured pick 42 as free agency compensation for Jack Graham’s exit but that could be swept up in a swap with Brisbane to nab the Lions’ pick 20.
The Herald Sun revealed on Tuesday the Tigers had received an end-of-second round compensation pick for Graham’s move to West Coast on a four-year deal as an unrestricted free agent.
The Lions are eager to off-load pick 20 for a suite of later selections such as the Tigers’ cluster of second and third-round picks to help Brisbane bank points for father-son jet Levi Ashcroft and academy prospect Sam Marshall.
The Tigers will snare pick six (as a minimum) for Daniel Rioli (Gold Coast), pick 14 for Liam Baker (West Coast), and look set to land 10 and 18 for Shai Bolton (Fremantle).
The deals will put the Tigers in an extraordinary position to hand-pick its next wave of young stars in one hit although Richmond will look to trade at least one of the picks into next year.
List boss Blair Hartley has begun talks with the Suns, Dockers and Eagles on the deals which could trickle into next week as the finer details and lesser pick swaps are thrashed out.
The situation makes the Tigers’ premiership talent expert the busiest man in football over the next eight days as he looks to lay the foundation for the club’s next shot at a premiership.
But the Tigers’ dealings will also involve other clubs as well, as Melbourne is looking to trade a future pick with either Richmond or Fremantle to give the Demons another first-round choice.
The Demons already hold the number five selection after a dismal year on and off field.
Gold Coast is prepared to hand over pick six for best-and-fairest winner Rioli as part of an exchange which bears resemblance to Adelaide’s move on Izak Rankine for pick five two years ago.
The Suns could also look to involve a future first-round pick in a deal as the Suns prepare to send Jack Lukosius to Port Adelaide in exchange for the Power’s top selection next year.
The Dockers are well-placed to hand over 10 and 18 for Bolton who has shown tremendous upside but battled to produce his best form consistently in yellow and black.
Baker’s move to West Coast looks straightforward as the Eagles wait to receive pick 14 from Hawthorn for Tom Barrass and hand then on to Richmond for Baker.
The Eagles also want a secondary pick such as a future second-rounder to give up Barrass to Waverley where he is expected to help make the Hawks a top-four contender alongside departed Saints’ backman Josh Battle.
Barrass, who is regarded as one of the best defenders in the league, turned 29 on Tuesday.
While the Hawks are on the up, the departure of four of the Tigers’ best players will leave the club exposed on the field next year and the clear favourite for the wooden spoon.
It will put the onus on key recruits Tim Taranto and Jacob Hopper to carry a huge load in the midfield after joining the club at the end of 2022 to be part of a premiership push.
The Tigers gave up picks 12 and 19 for Taranto and a future first-rounder and pick 31 for Hopper.
Clubs are expected to make longshot plays for the two midfielders next year who both lobbed at Punt Rd on lucrative seven-year deals.
The pair have said they are committed to the Richmond rebuild but that faith could be tested if the losses mount next year.

Interesting. If we manage to get 10 and 11 from Freo I assume they'll use 18 in the draft. Maybe we can give Dees pick 20 for F1 + something else.But the Tigers’ dealings will also involve other clubs as well, as Melbourne is looking to trade a future pick with either Richmond or Fremantle to give the Demons another first-round choice.
Money is no issue for GC. They just put their hand out and the AFL pay (after raiding us and the other financially viable clubs).
