spoke at the club’s best-and-fairest count on Friday night about retaining Richards, but the emerging goal-kicker is seeking a fresh start. The Power need help inside 50, particularly with Charlie Dixon retiring, and Richards may help with this.

 

[It Just Is]

Good get. Now don’t overpay.

 

[TazD]

Pencil the Richards deal in as being the most ridiculous trade of the year because Collingwood will want to tie it to Houston.

 

[Ford Fairlane]

They'll want a straight swap for Houston because ... they're Collingwood.

They are really going to go all out for that pick 13 now to gazump Carlton. So Gold Coast should do well out of this.

 

[Macca19]

This should be an easy f2 or f3 trade

 

[afl2004]

The missing piece part 30

 

[Holden Hillbilly]

The reporting from this morning indicates that Collingwood's ability to get Houston is predicated on them getting 13 from Gold Coast as part of a Noble trade, then on-trading to Port along with Richards (and probably something else).

He does look decent. I can't understand how we can't draft and develop our own guys sometimes. Constantly chasing that missing player

COLLINGWOOD'S Joe Richards has requested a trade to Port Adelaide.

Richards had been weighing up offers from both the Power and the Magpies, but has opted to move to Adelaide.

[QPower]

Richards is 25 YO and not best 23. A 3rd round pick at most. Watching Collingwood try to fatten the pig for market at the B ‘n’ F was cringe.

Houston trade needs to stand alone from this and be a fair bit more than 13.

 

[Ford Fairlane]

He does look decent. I can't understand how we can't draft and develop our own guys sometimes. Constantly chasing that missing player

But which is the club that nails every position through their own drafting and development? Every club chases recruits.

 

[PortPortPort]

This guy has only played 9 games and kicked 6 goals. Not a first 23 player. I'd be very disappointed if we overpay for him.

Multiple games as sub

Now that Richards has picked Port, I was thinking of possible trades, as Lukosius also wants Port and GC wants future picks.
From all reports GC want a first for Lukosius, so is the following 3 way trade close?

Port get
Richards-Lukosius-Pick 13
Port Lose
Houston - F2

Pies get
Houston
Pies Lose
Richards - Noble - F1

GC get
Pies F1 - Noble - Port F2
GC Lose
Lukosius - Pick 13

 

[Wargreymon90]

I’m actually a Macrae fan, but he gaslights players hard for wanting to leave their club.

The way he acts like a sad abandoned puppy when players request trade (for perfectly fair and reasonable reasons) is pathetic.

Our small forward plodders & pressure appliers would be lucky to kick 6 goals for an entire season.

 

[shewho]

We were after Richard’s 2 years ago- trumped by the Wobbles

We were after Mannagh last year- trumped by the Kitties.

Both are goal kicking miss at the lower level but forwards at this level.

Collingwood clearly pissed at our approach but they offered him one year initially- they don’t value him as highly as we do.

 

[Port2Power]

A future third pick is the most we should be giving to a 9 gamer who isn't in there best 22.

Any suggestion he is worth a second round pick now is pure MADNESS!

 

[PortVic]

Richards asked for a trade to us. Not sure if it’s a good thing yet!

Hell nah

 

[Schulzenfest]

This should be an easy f2 or f3 trade

He's a 25 year old who's played 9 games for 6 goals. Shouldn't be anywhere near an F2. If we were the club dealing him we'd be lucky to get an F4.

 

[EskimoPAFC]

Are Collingwood really that bad at the trading table? I don't think we've done a lot with them but I've never seen them get out of line, certainly not to the levels of ridiculous clubs like Essendon/Adelaide/Geelong.

Anyway we need small forwards so if this bloke has showed a little something then why not.

 

[Peninsula Boy]

I'm glad to see what he can do because we have a real problem at small goal kicking forward.

He should be a 3rd or 4th rounder at best.

It's best he's not a part of any Houston deal.

Without our future 2 it’s close.
