Where'd this come from?
Contracted for 1 more year
According to who? No chance that'll happen.
stop it ya cheeky shit, they are not.
Should demand straight swap with noah AndersonSo if Bolton, Rioli, Baker, Grimes, Graham and Martin all go, I'd guess that's about $5mill of cap space freed up next year
We're going to struggle to meet the 95% minimum cap spend. I reckon we'll pay a chunk of Riolis and Boltons contracts and receive higher picks off GC and Freo in return. We'd be silly not to.
No .... yes to noah AndersonJack Lukosius in a Rioli deal, yes please
GC?? Geelong CatsNah, they don’t. The Broad talk is bullshit. Is Dusty stil going to GC?
Jack Lukosius in a Rioli deal, yes please
Wouldn’t think so personallySurely Dusty retiring swings the scales for blokes on the fence about staying or going.
Yes a very shortsighted decision for team but maybe not for it's coach. Yze could well be heading into next season with only 2 wins under his belt. Even with all the reassurance in the world it wouldn't be surprising if psychologically he was in serious survival mode. He may offer other excuses but he may want Oliver simply for that reason. The club has to stand firm and say no.Oliver will be 28 next year. Would be a very shortsighted decision to bring him in, not even taking into account the off-field stuff.
If Yze wasn't on the same page as the list management team I would sack him now.Yes a very shortsighted decision for team but maybe not for it's coach.

I'd be really concerned at the mental state of a player like Oliver choosing to come to Richmond as a 28 year old with us in our current situation.
There's always so much talk about younger guns not electing to come to the Tigers because of the prospect of a few years in the doldrums - being an older bloke would be way more ridiculous. At least 21 year-olds can almost be assured of being in a competitive unit at Punt Road by the time they're 25-26.
To me, it would ring serious alarm bells on his motivation, or lack thereof.
do we even have any pokies anymore? why would he want to come to us?If we try to pick up Oliver we should fold thats a terrible suggestion
We should be totally focused on youth. Bring in guys that around 23-24 years old so that they will hit their prime as we look to contendGiants traded Taylor Adams for Heath Shaw
Wonder if we could work out something like that with the suns, we get one of their young guns for Rioli

My crystal ball has us more likely keeping Bolton, reckon GC will give anything fir rioli , freo a little more circumspect having been bitten several times with returning WA stars tho shai would be most established of the lotwould be so happy with this!!
And we Keep Daniel
Yea I reckon he’s damaged goods and how the heck would he mould into a midfield that has TT and Hopper , at his best he’s damned good I might addIf we pick up Oliver I’ll spew up and the little faith I have left with the current regime will be completely eroded.
he cant have long left, stank it upBroad will leave next year anyway. If North want to give us a decent pick we should take it.
im scared we will pick 5 spuds like the early 2000 draftsHit the draft and hit it hard. This year and next.
Just go nuts.
get rid of hopper and get claytoYea I reckon he’s damaged goods and how the heck would he mould into a midfield that has TT and Hopper , at his best he’s damned good I might add
