We honestly might need to keep graham now purely for experience

How to deal with repeated short term injuries?

He is a club legend and I have no issue either way. A pick in the 40s has value in trades though but the decision is out of our hands unless we offer stupid money.

 

[tigerdan]

I hope to get Rachelle just for you to checkout. He’s a gun. Has X factor a plenty and the bonus in getting him would be to piss you and your bullshit posts goodbye.

If they trade him to the giants you'll get the same result.

 

[docko911]

Doesn't seem like we are into anyone either as well. I don't think there has been any talk of anyone considering coming to us. I'd like to see us go the moneyball option like at the start of Dimmas tenure when we got Houli and Grigg. I'd love for us to strengthen next year's hand as well as it's way too many picks to take into one draft.

I’ve thought about money ball or even trying to lure the 3rd/4th year highly rated players not getting games but at the end of the day most aren’t going to be guns. Taking a lot of picks in one draft is only risky if you mismanage your contracts or the draft is shit or you have too many good players competing for spots. The way we stand right now we have about 15 players worthy of competing for the bench spots on a team but most will probably play 15+ games next year. There’s no need to pay them big and they can’t expect games in the future, and if we lose them they are fringe players.

We could pay a lot next year for Bolton and Rioli contracts, get more Taranto and Hopper $$$ off the books, front load Balta’s contract and anyone else dominating next year, and then we start front loading the standouts from this years draft.

In saying all this I would trade 21 for a future first if we didn’t have someone we were desperate to get at that pick (which is likely with 7 picks before)

That’s a good thought , we front load the shit out of hop and TT , in event that hop is cut short by a few years won’t cost us much

 

["The Roar Is Back"]

Told the radio presenters on 5AA in the leadup to the showdown that port supporters have no teeth, then ran to the crowd and pointed to his teeth after he kicked a snag on the weekend and now crows have omitted him from the side which he may not be too happy about

Ridiculous they should have added him to the leadership group .
The world is truly ****ed when hanging shit on toothless port fans is condemned .

Could also trade them with less money on their contracts if we have a host of young midfielders coming through.

Rachele is a full of himself turd, but the way Adelaide threw him under the bus publicly like they did says a lot about them and their culture.

 

[Barunga Bullet]

Bro, I don't even multi quote. I am basically like a monkey trying to root a footy with tech.

It makes it hard to be up with technology when ya live in Traralgon. Once you go past Warragul it feels like I've gone back to the 90s.

If it ends up that way, what an absolute disaster.

 

[SouthernStripes]

Yeah they seem like a weird club Adelaide. Will be pretty funny if Rachele does leave, as they’ve put a bit of time into developing him.

 

[Barunga Bullet]

i have watched Rachelle.

where is the x-factor.

Rachelle is not Rankine

Rachelle put his teeth out after a none event on the weekend.

The hawks guy has more x-factor. Weddle has more x-factor as does Ginnavan

If RFC got Rachelle I would check out, end of premiership aspirations

Marlon Pickett had more x-factor than Rachelle

CAN SOMEONE PLEASE TELL THE CLUB TO GET RACHELLE. I DONT CARE IF IT COSTS PICK 1. JUST DO IT NOW!

 

[docko911]

If it ends up that way, what an absolute disaster.

We’re 2-20, 2 years after losing an elimination final by a kick without Taranto and Hopper. It’s already an absolute disaster. I’d trade Hopper now if we could bring in a young mid that can kick.

We're at least a couple of years off that my friend.

 

[Mr Magic]

Rachelle would have a relationship with Yze through his father growing up with him in Shepparton .
Rachelle could be a poor man’s replacement for Bolton .

I prefer Bolton.

But Bolton to me is a small forward who can play in the midfield. Bolton is proven, Bolton is a matchup nightmare even when getting attention

Rachelle to me is a inbetweener, He to me has not made it as a small forward. He kicks goal but not as a specialist forward rather more of a on the end of it so when it comes to finals is he a liability especially against better defences? Junk time stars do not help us really

The way the game is played these days a lot of players move between roles but are they any good when the pressure is really on and they get attention?

Swans is a interesting case, we now Parker will stand up but how many others hold firm when they get attention and pressure directed their way in finals?

The jury is still out on Rachelle for mine, is is having a little honeymoon period but can he get it done when the cracks are whipping?

 

[guruisatiger]

If I was Richmond I'd be making serious enquiries with Rachele's management.
He isn't just a small forward. He can play through the middle. Showed a fair bit of that in 2023. Hasn't had the same opportunities this year.

Very much worth a look, even next year.

Prefer Jake soligo

 

[Tomnat Tigers]

If West Coast basically trade Barrass for Baker they have lost the plot and I reckon we could also get pick 3 off them for magic beans.

You're either vastly overrating Barass who isn't worth a top 10 pick given he turns 29 in two months or underrating Baker who is comfortably worth a pick between 10-15.

 

[guruisatiger]

5 & 20 for Rioli = Exactly.
Then as a side deal swap Gold Coast pick 14 for 39, 41 & 48. (more points than pick 14)

That was laughed at by the so called experts a few days ago. Good to see some are starting to realise we hold all the cards.

If they don't want to do a deal that's heavily slanted in our favour, then fine, don't do a deal, he stays.

Gold Coast can get the champion that is Noble from Collingwood instead lol

39 41 48= 1,145
Pick 14 = 1161

You down selling Rachelle should increase interest .

Don't tell Gold Coast that... they might have fallen for it!

Why Shai Bolton’s uncle thinks his nephew is the missing piece for Fremantle

“Fremantle would be a good fit for him… he might be the icing on the cake.”

[prodigy]

If compo is looking like a 40s pick agree. If it's 22 we should shove him out the door.

There's no value in Graham staying.

 

[prodigy]

Also Rachelle for our pick 30 please. Worth the risk like givivan

Adelaide wouldn't let him go for that. Contracted till 2029.
