One more time

[Captain Blood]

It seems that there are certain Essendon, Doggies (and a few Collingwood) supporters who just don't get it regardless of how many times the Brown and Soloman trades are discusssed, so I'll point it out to their narrow minds one more time.

It doesn't matter that the first deals RFC put on the table were rejected, do you really think the best offers come out on day 1? Get real and play the game, you start small and build up - who knows along the way some dopey club might accept an offer and you pick up a bargain. Wait until Thursday before the real talent is offered.

I wonder who will be the first?

Would think though that insulting the other clubs by offering Ray Hall for either of those two doesn't do Richmond any favours

Understand you may not put your best offer on the table up front but you sure as hell can't offer that rubbish, cause they may not come back and ask again !!!!!

The only dopes in this are Richmond to offer such huge contracts to these two and then expect Essendon and WB will just bend over and cope a hiding from them. Get Real !!

[Captain Blood]

Didn't take long but we have a winner!! Well done Adrian.

ironic isnt it that richmond dont have "real talent" to offer?

[Captain Blood]

well done electric on being second, just beaten by Adrian.

but aren't the only real talent Richmond have got, Ottens and Couglan, considered untouchables? Who else have they got to offer? Richo?

I am not sure but they do not have much, they would not have tooo much cap room either as they have to pay part of Holland Salary when he makes his move to the DEES. I think that richmond pay far too much for players they have a bad year or are hurt then they will try and trade em on. I just do not understand the mental side of the back office at tiger land, they should either show faith in the player or not be so stupid at contact time, Ben Holland duped the tiger last time by saying he was going to the Crows to drive up his price now look were it has got them. they are the yellow and HACK
