Actually he does not.

We have surplus small forwards.

Furthermore, I anticipate us trying to bolster our defence even further at the draft because Banks could easily end up in the guts while Brown could also go up the ground like Hugo

This is part of the problem I think. Some do not adequately recognise what we need and what we do not need.

For example the Lambert role, it is redundant, we do not want players to play this Lambert role, oppositions are well aware of it and countered it, it is old news

This is why we still persist with Pickett. He has been consistent but if we need to sorry son, your playing up forward because as the everywhere man you can and we need someone else on the flank

Running half backs/wings
Kmac
Rioli
Short
Ralphsmith
Brown
Banks

Small forwards
Cumberland
Rioli Jr
Castagna
Clarke
Aarts (probably delisted)

How you think we have a surplus of small forwards is beyond me unless you are counting guys like Baker and Stack who could just as likely play the half back/wing role
 
Flynn and Briggs aren't AFL standard ruckman. Preuss is a little injury prone and a hot head that get's suspended often.

Soldo is also from Canberra.

Soldo isn’t much better
 
12 + future second + the biggest spud on our list is enough for both

they need to get rid of em

We do not have to rail road but some he act like we need to be a doormat to be run over.

BTW, do not think for a second the puppet masters behind the news releases do not want to kick Richmond in the guts

Baker and Short are small fowards, Rioli has played there.

People go on about Hugo's defensive side, ergh and what about Short??


Stack is a back, always has been

Banks and Ralphsmith could still be in the middle yet

Balta not Bolta.

And he's the obvious one. Probably worth a lot. We could draft in a potential long term high end athletic KPD to replace him. That's how the best do it. Trade out your young stars for even younger possible stars. premierships await!!
Then he's "Bolter"

  1. a person or animal that bolts or runs away.

    • HISTORICAL•AUSTRALIAN
      an escaped convict or absconder.




Um yeh, na, dad joke....... lets self out.

Baker and Short are small fowards, Rioli ahs played there
Baker started the year as a small forward but ended it back in the backline with stints in the midfield, Short was also pushed into the midfield due to our lack of depth (something that Hopper and Taranto fixes and means they can play best position and also shore up our backline)

All may of been recruited as small forwards (including Rioli) but none of them play that position anymore
 
My guess is, Martyn, Aarts and Stack will be delisted.
RCD will get traded/delisted.
Rcd will def be traded he will be viewed like will brodie , r1 draftee battled for reg game time , difference is that was at Richmond who won most weeks vs GC who lost most of the time . Bookmark it , he will be on a list next year , wouldn’t surprise at all if he did well either
 
Didn’t realise that Tim Taranto is managed by the same company as Trent Cotchin 😯

We are not winning premierships, spin the magnets, our backline is weak compared to others

What does Hopper and Taranto fix?? depth in the middle? What if Banks, Hugo and others go past them?
 
Just realised Hoppers a free agent after next season. He's already contracted. I reckon let it play out wait get Taranto and a KPF this year. Hopper as a FA next year and use the 1st rounder we would've used on Hopper in a Tom Green Deal. By then Riewoldt, Cotchin are gone prestias on way out & if Dusty gets his mojo back extend him so his salary is way less. Simples!

Agree RCD is showing a hell of a lot for a guy supposedly going to be delisted.

Brodie just shows whats wrong at Gold Coast

They don’t just fix midfield depth they mean we have a competitive midfield

Prestia and Cotchin are currently our two best midfielders by quite a large margin, we have no other experienced inside mids on the list

Am hoping they lock onto soldo so 12 and 19 then def get all done , if there’s several clubs interested that’s promising sounds like 30-40 to me

What is Ross and Graham?

What does Dusty do?

If Cumberland loses the fumble fingers look out up forward
 
What is Ross and Graham?

What does Dusty do?
Graham plays his best footy on the outside of the contest and has never shown an ability to consistently win clearances or contested possies

Ross is still an unknown and inexperienced
