Melbourne offering their first rounder (pick 7) for us to take on Oliver.

He is on 1m a year for the next 5 years until he is 32. No one should be touching him without being compensated given his form this season and more importantly issues off the ground.
Where'd this come from?
 
Is broad contracted or a free agent? He should depart aswell

Contracted for 1 more year

According to who? No chance that'll happen.
 
Richmond could have as many as six first-round draft picks as part of a blockbuster draft haul if it approves moves for some of its in-demand premiership stars this year.
The Tigers already have picks one, 19 and 31 and will also weigh up deals which could net them picks six, eight, 13, 16 and 20 in a draft recruiters are lauding for its quality and depth.

Privately, rival clubs believe Richmond is setting itself to fast track its rebuild with bumper hands this year and next year in the hope of emulating prized hauls from Hawthorn (2004), Geelong (1999 and 2001) and Port Adelaide (2018).

But the Tigers could also hold Daniel Rioli and Shai Bolton to their contracts for at least one more year to stagger some of their departures with hard nuts Jack Graham and Liam Baker (both 26) likely to leave at season’s end.

Gold Coast and Fremantle have five first-round picks between them this year and would both have to pay overs to claim Rioli, 27, and Bolton, 25, as both premiership stars are in contract.

Gold Coast is heavily targeting Rioli to join forces with premiership coach Damien Hardwick, Fremantle is eyeing pair Bolton and Baker, while West Coast wants Graham.

North Melbourne has strong interest in gun defender Nathan Broad, 31, but the star backman has made clear his preference is to stay at Punt Rd to help the lead rebuild.

Broad will show enormous loyalty to Richmond’s cause if he continues to rebuff interest from the Roos who may be forced to turn to GWS interceptor Nick Haynes or Cat Jake Kolodjashnij.

They are monumental decisions for Richmond’s highly-respected list boss Blair Hartley who will be eager to rebuild the team through the draft over the next 16 months before the new Tasmanian team enters the AFL.

The potential deals mean Richmond could have picks one, six, eight, 13, 16, 19, 20 and 31 at a minimum if they go ahead with the deals.

The Tigers also want to swap their three third-round and three fourth-round picks for at least one more first-round pick after a series of moves in last year’s trade period to bolster their position.


Brisbane and Carlton are both in the market to swap their early picks with Richmond for later choices to secure the Lions’ and Blues’ father-son and academy jets.

But these key decisions are going to be likely left until the end of the season when Richmond’s leaders including senior coach Adem Yze holds exit meetings with the players.

Richmond denies it is dealing with an exodus and will instead be strategic with its list moves to set the club up for future premiership success.

Richmond is certain retired champion Dustin Martin does not want to pursue a final chapter at Gold Coast, so the Suns will instead chase Rioli as part of a long-term deal.

Hard nut Baker has the choice to land at West Coast and Fremantle and despite supporting the Eagles as a child could choose Fremantle due to its open premiership window.

But the Tigers are strongly considering digging in over the Bolton deal and keep the star playmaker to his contract due to his considerable upside and work they have already put into him off-field.

The Suns would be expected to part with pick six for Rioli to entice him north, while Fremantle could give 13 for Baker and eight and 16 as part of a deal for Bolton.

Fremantle would likely ask for something back if it is asked to part with two top-20 picks for Bolton after only a moderate season.

The Dockers have three first-round draft picks including Collingwood’s and Port Adelaide’s, while Gold Coast has two early choices including the Western Bulldogs’.

Baker is out of contract and is expected to be an easier negotiation than Rioli and Bolton.

West Coast has pick three and could swap that for two later first-round choices, giving one in the teens to Richmond for Baker.

Thanks. That all sounds good to me!

Jack Lukosius in a Rioli deal, yes please
 
Clubs do not hang on to players that insist on leaving any longer. It isn't good for club culture, player development, player value when eventually traded and relations with other clubs. We can't dig in our heels here and play 'old school'. It doesn't work.

If Bolton and Rioli want to leave then Bolton and Rioli will leave.

So, let get the most value out of the situation as we can. Paying part of their wage, because we'll have a huge salary cap to get better picks, is a great solution. None of them are structural players or even cultural leaders. They are bonus/'cherry on the cake' type players that make a good team even better. We need star mids and tall forwards. If if can get that through a trade for them, then I'm all for it.

There is a lot to play out yet and not all the players mentioned will go. Bolton, Rioli and Graham may stay and only Baker leaves but if they're desperate and we can get overs for them, I say go for it!
Rioli not a culture leader.🤣
