2 late first round picks ?Gold Coast believes Daniel Rioli wants to make a fresh start of his career at the Suns, happy to allow relative Maurice Rioli to continue his career at Punt Road and up for a fresh challenge after nine seasons.
Rioli is contracted until 2027 at Richmond and the Suns have had no preliminary discussions with the Tigers over a trade but are hopeful Adem Yze will eventually be open minded.
Rioli and Nick Vlastuin are likely to compete for the Jack Dyer Medal this year, with the Tigers likely to be able to secure two late first-round picks from the Suns if they come to the party.
Rioli proposed to partner Paris Lawrence during this year’s off-season bye but she could continue her DJing career in Brisbane and Gold Coast if they relocated.

But it remains possible the Tigers might simply refuse to trade Daniel Rioli given he is contracted even though the incentive of two first-round picks for a player who will be 28 in April will be tempting.
It comes with Adelaide interested in home grown forward Jack Lukosius but with the Suns likely to ask for a first-round pick in exchange if he does decide to head to the Crows.
The Suns have made clear they are keen to keep Lukosius despite him finishing the season in the VFL but it seems clear their public stance is not replicated by a hands-off message behind the scenes.
WHAT SHOULD RICHMOND DO IF THEY GET FIVE PICKS WITHIN 20 IN THIS DRAFT?
An anonymous rival list boss on how Richmond can maximise their draft hand if they trade Shai Bolton and Daniel Rioli and secure five or even six picks in the top 20.
“Now is the time to strike. Hit the draft as hard as you can. It’s got everything and it’s probably the best top 20 we have seen since 2017. Now is the chance to load up. You have to nail your picks but you can pair guys up through the draft with multiple midfielders. It’s the only way for them to rebound and one day contend again.”
Pick one
Finn O’Sullivan (Oakleigh Chargers)
“He’s the best mid in the draft. He’s a two-way runner, he’s combative. He hasn’t had a great run at this this year but in terms of what he could be, he’s a Sam Walsh type who compliments any midfield.”
Pick nine
Harry Armstrong (Sandringham Dragons)
“He’s the best key forward in the draft. Tom Lynch is finishing up in the not-too-distant future. He’s the next generation Jeremy Cameron and he’s a local boy.”
Pick 10
Bo Allan (Peel Thunder)
“He’s a 191cm WA kid who has played senior footy already and he can play as that third tall defender or as a big bodied mid.”
Pick 17
Matt Whitlock (Murray Bushrangers)
“There aren’t too many good mids by this stage so he’s a good key back they could partner with Josh Gibcus. He’s a Shepparton boy, a really athletic tall, he joins in on offence and he can play forward a bit and has kicked goals there. So he’s really versatile and it would be a smart pick.”
Pick 20
Tom Gross (Oakleigh Chargers)
“He’s a super competitive kid from Oakleigh. A 181cm midfielder and forward who just wins contests. He’s really tough, he would be a nice utility. He had a super national championships including 27 games against South Australia.”
Yeah, I am just saying they are similar players. Size, style, pace, kicking, low agility etc. not sure we need them both in the team.Dunno about that. A 20 year old Hopper would suffice for a mid 2nd rounder.
Even if his form's dropped away now through years of injury, Hopper was a gun for those 4 years 2018-2021 when he played over 95% of GWS games.
What it comes down to is what Rioli is worth to us. He is in our top 5 players at the moment. We will be getting a lot of young players in and his presence would help develop the kids. He is contracted and I'd be more than happy to keep him unless the deal is enticing.2 late first round picks ?

There was reporting that the East Fremantle ruckman was attracting interest.You would have thought we will target a ruckman of some description as depth with really Nank & Ryan as our only legit ruck options. Whose out there?
Ned Reeves?
They could trade out Darcy to get some currency
They’d like a time machine on that one. Trade Darcy for plenty, bring in Jackson and keep Meek.He is a case of being worth much more to them than they'd get for him I reckon.
heck me she must like complete douche bags. Sam Mc is barely male either.They said in the paper that Karina Carvalho quit ABC News in Sydney.
She moved to Melbourne, now co-hosting Channel 7 Afternoons with Mike Amor.
She is dating Sam McClure.
Dumb and dumber.
Seven welcomes new face to 7NEWS Melbourne
‘She’s energetic and passionate, and we’re thrilled to have her joining the Melbourne team.’7news.com.au
We’ll, she’s gone to Channel 7, so probably.Either that or she’s batshit crazy with a screw loose
Ralph Malf really is a clueless campaigner. Just types what Campbell tells him to without even thinking if it makes sense.2 late first round picks ?

How Melbourne let Bedford go, and didn’t give him consistent games staggers me. How we didn’t have a crack at him is just as surprising.Any word on Jacob konstanty? With mrj, mansell and campbell in the team I don’t think we really need him do we? Only bring it up because people were mentioning him to us not long ago
no no no to softkosiousWhat if it was pick 5 and Lukosius for Rioli?

Hi BrendanAdd this lad to the signed list.

Considering both players each have multi-year contracts with us we should burn Punt Road to the ground if either of these two scenarios happened. If our list management team are even half competent we'll get much more for each playerMake of this what you will.
Fremantle part with Picks 10 and 17 for Shai Bolton
Gold Coast part with Picks 13 and 20 for Daniel Rioli
Great posture thoughluke darcy was a dud too
Good year to be a selling club with contracted players.
If all favourites win this weekend then 8 points will seperate 2nd and 10th with two clubs outside the top 10 in Melbourne and GC being in a position where they need to strengthen with ready made players. So regardless of how strong this draft is list managers aren't going to risk their jobs on 18 year olds when with decent recruits and some internal growth they could pinch a flag over the next couple of seasons like Collingwood did last year.
