I’d be very surprised if much of that came to fruition u just can’t overate your list losing by 10g ea week struggling to kick 8 , with near best side in , my spider senses sayUnfortunately, yes. It sounds like the club is overrating the list something awful.
The fact that none of our ageing or injury prone premiership players are ever dropped - except McIntosh (for one game) - leads me to believe that this is exactly what they think.My concern is that the club believes the injuries are the reason we're on the bottom and not the poor shape of the list.
I mean there hasn’t really been much opportunity to drop fit players at all this yearThe fact that none of our ageing or injury prone premiership players are ever dropped - except McIntosh (for one game) - leads me to believe that this is exactly what they think.
If that is the case, we will be f**ked for 20 years.
Bugger that.Hmm I’d be equally as keen on trading pic 1 for 3 top 18 pics ,,,tho that depends on player trades . If we were to keep both rioli and Bolton , this could be an idea
Been hundreds of opportunities to bring a returning player back through the vfl on managed minutes though.I mean there hasn’t really been much opportunity to drop fit players at all this year
I understand but if we don't take our chances whilst they are there to be taken we could equally be at risk of being at the start of a rebuild in 3 to 4 years time. Or worse.I agree, I’m not against trying to improve our draft hand. Just making the point Baker going for a mid-teens pick isn’t going to make or break our rebuild as odds are the player we get will be inferior to Baker.
And let’s say we did proactively trade out Bolton, Baker and Rioli, and got picks 5, 8 and 14. What if 2 of those are Fisher McAsey and Corey Ellis? What does the next 6-7 years look like then?
Or as Dons did in 2020 with picks 8,9,10 we get Reid, Perkins and Cox? 4-years later still doing sweet bugger all.
There’s no exact science, but pretty certain going nuclear isn’t the solution.

Well, he's small, and he plays in the backline, but he ain't a defender.Jayden Short is small, and he's a defender

Dusty likely playing elsewhere
Baker off to WA
Lynch traded
One of rioli or Bolton out
JG lost to FA
Plus several retirements
I see a couple of <23s traded in to
Lol Yze can't wait til the season ends. Can't blame him either. Wouldn't mind if they heck off half the footy department 3 weeks early too.
Problem is most of those best 22 have an asterisk....Near best side in?
There were 17 players injured in case you missed it for the weekend. Amongst those were:
- Tom Lynch
- Dustin Martin
- Jack Ross
- Maurice Rioli
- Josh Gibcus
- Dion Prestia
- Mykelti Lefau
- Marlion Pickett
Yeh on 360 he specifically named Prestia and Lynch as being really important going forward, they are 100% on the list next year. Pleased to hear tbh specifically since lynch is only on 89 games for RichmondListening to Yze will be a blend of trading out for picks and holding older guys like Lynch & Dion.
Thought he spoke really well. Never really listened to him before
Clear sign in 2 weeks.Lol Yze can't wait til the season ends. Can't blame him either. Wouldn't mind if they heck off half the footy department 3 weeks early too.

Depends what the offer is and the tiering of players.If there’s no standout, would you trade pick 1?
Yes. For picks 2 and 3.If there’s no standout, would you trade pick 1?
3 and say 10 would be interesting.Yes. For picks 2 and 3.

3 & F13 and say 10 would be interesting.
Marshall won't be a priority for Brisbane.Brisbane need the points to match for Marshall as well
I’d expect we turn those later 40-50 picks into another second rounder and then that gets packaged to get into pick 12
Otherwise Brisbane will need to make a bunch of list spots available
There is a standout.If there’s no standout, would you trade pick 1?
