Yep good examples are crouch hogan and Zac jones no doubt we were keen , ultimately oppo were in a position to table much better deals with ample tpp space , Hogan the one that got away imho

Who's to say it hasn't been planned years out just like Lynch?

I'd be shocked if he leaves with MRJ at the club.
He may re-sign for 2yrs then head for the money.
But right now i doubt it.
I teach Callaghan's sister and I'm working hard on the getting her to encourage him to come to Richmond... just give me another 4 months and I'll get it done for 2024
I’d highly doubt gc have much spare tpp ,they salary dumPed last year with Brodie . In fact they’d be tighter than us ,,,,closer to home like norf or Ess would loom larger with big offers to dan , reckon he sticks though

Riley played midfield in 2021, when he wasn't on the bench hooked up to a respirator. But you're right, that was out of position. His last chance to make it is as a forward.
No chance of getting Hopper cheap. It would cost our first, plus.

Still not keen on paying much for anyone.
Others as well as myself have mentioned Amartey; I like him a lot

No one but it’s not going to be McGrath, Dunkley, Tom Green or Callaghan. Zero chance of landing any of them
We were too late on Jones. If we had have done the work earlier like the Saints did he would have chosen us imo.
We were too occupied with other targets that didn't come off.
Did he say Dan Rioli is considering leaving? Wow, agree with you that with Maurice at the club and his apparent happiness being among the ”brothers” at Richmond, there’s little to zero chance he will be going anywhere
Cerra was only a r1 so was Prestia , we offer 19 I’d be very surprised if that were bettered , no bottom 10 team gonna do it and most top 8 teams would fit in $ . Eg Ess would be keen , no way do they part with top 10 pic
We ll bring him in for the nm pic
Not too beat up about him, Hogan could have played a key role for us for years

If we're talking about what was said on the pod, he said he's 70% confident that Rioli stays, and the other 30% is more referring to a team paying stupid money that is impossible to refuse, like Carlton did for Saad and Williams.

Thomas has more talent than those three combined.
If you can get Thomas for pick #19
You grab it - Can somebody do a Tarryn Thomas in a Richmond jumper

From Round 8 of 2021 Thomas averaged 20 possessions and 1.3 goals per game. Averaging 20+ and a goal a game is rarified air across the competition reserved for players like Danger, Bont, Dusty, Shai Bolton, Petracca and DeGoey.
In that 14 game stretch he also averaged 5 x Inside 50’s, 1 x goal assist and 4 x tackles.
Those are elite numbers for any player, let alone someone who at the start of 2021 had played 26 games.
Anyway …. the point is at the end of 2021 as a 21yo on the back of that 14-game stretch he’d have commanded a top-10 pick without a second thought. This season has muddied the waters a bit in regards to both performance and mindset … but there’s no way North let him go for pick #19 and RCD. If they did then we wouldn’t hesitate (so long as he wasn’t a head case)
Stack has plenty of talent but look where it’s got him. Sometimes it’s not enough.

From Ralph the mouth-Sides going against the rebuild.
At Richmond, the capacity to secure five picks in 30 last year — all of them who have shown early VFL or AFL promise — gives the Tigers so much freedom in this year’s national draft.
The combined value of their first pick (10) and the North Melbourne second-rounder in their keeping (pick 19) is 2343 draft points, the equivalent of the No.3 draft pick.

In other words, clearly enough to trade for a GWS midfielder like Tim Taranto.
The Tigers have always known they would need to restock their midfield as Trent Cotchin moves into retirement, and have believed a GWS midfielder would fall out given cap issues this year.
Cotchin’s injury and Prestia’s concussion against Geelong was a glimpse to the future and yet Liam Baker’s exquisite second half led to the game of the year.
But with Prestia 30 in October, Richmond surely is in the perfect position to hand over early picks for a player like Taranto.
He is in the right age bracket (24), he can play inside mid and resting forward, he is a brilliant young kid and he will fit in perfectly with the emerging youngsters in Shai Bolton, Noah Balta, Josh Gibcus, Maurice Rioli and Hugo Ralphsmith.
If not him, which other established mid will the Tigers consider?
So a team which has won three flags since 2017 could add a player of that calibre and further gap the Roos, a team deserving of a priority pick but no certainty to get one.

I think he'll either be a Saint or a Bomber.
Hopefully he stays at GWS, because that opens up the door for us to swoop on Hopper.
