Yes.Ok but let's say scum wood don't offer that and as has been reported he wants to go there .

Yes.

Bet he comes to Richmond now you've posted this.This thread moves so fast I can't keep up. All I can say is thank god Yarran wants to stay put. 50 bucks says we went to them with a third rounder then laughed in their face when they wanted our 1st.

Was just an example that being successful or even looking like you are heading the right way doesn't mean players are lining up to come to you. Most move for home issues or better opportunities but the final key is the security & coin........very little else matters except the coin.Maybe true but who has actually moved that they have wanted? They got Burgoyne in 2009 and O'Rourke last year. They didn't want Greenwood or Adams, not sure about Caddy but the Cats were up and about when they got him. They got Frawley over cats and freo when he seemed destined to go to either one.
Who else has moved they may have got/wanted? I can't think of them losing out in the last 3-4 years except with maybe Buddy but they came out the other side pretty well.
The guys you've mentioned haven't moved so no point bring them up and Danger... well we will find out in month![]()
Kelly & stokes haven't retired, pushed out........They need all their players to retire so they can afford his signature.

I rate Garland better than that. He's just not quite big enough to be a key stopper.Awesome. We need to recruit another mediocre defender to fill the void when Chappy retires.
Honestly, and in my uninformed, gut feel opinion (knowing you're likely trolling for lols):I'd love to hear in % what people's thoughts are on the chances of these players actually coming to richmond
Treloar
Yarran
Motlop
Kreuzer
Aish
Hall
Bennell
And any others that we may have been linked to.

Not trolling at allHonestly, and in my uninformed, gut feel opinion (knowing you're likely trolling for lols):
Treloar: 60%
Yarran: 90%
Motlop: 1%
Kreuzer: 10%
Aish: 20%
Hall: 10%
Bennell: 10%
But are you credible ?That is my point. If we hear nothing next week, then i will go from a semi hardon to a full raging hard on. It is funny, I know every man and his dog is saying he is off to the pies, but I was told straight after the AFL allowing advanced picks changed the ball game. What I was told and shared is pretty consistent as some even starting mentioning it in the media.
I know the pies are going hammer and tong, trying to sell the buckley connection etc but to me its all smoke. That is why I cant wait till the end of next week because it does my head in lol. I am like everyone else, i get excited, then shattered within 30 min when news shifts but I have heard nothing, from any credible source to change my mind.

Overall ....You only got three names correct on that list ........way off......remember there is 17 other clubs talking to each other alot of talking and possibilities but we still dont want to destroy our pay structure remember that .........just have to see what pans out........we will all know very shortly were we all stand as a club......just enjoy the finals and let the recruiters to their job DR & BG probably have statues build at Punt Rd ..........one day ........all tigers fans enjoy September .....Ok so respectfully, did you just summarise a few of the more attractive propositions/rumours in these threads and take out the names?
PLAN A: Treloar and Tomlinson/Downie
PLAN B: Yarran and Kreuzer
PLAN C: Astbury for Aish
PLAN D: Hall
PLAN E: Bennell
amidoingitright?


Too true mate. Over paying players from outside is the worst thing this club can do, it erodes the trust of players inside the club and creates friction a within the group. This is a tight knit group who are willing to stay at the club for unders to get success - keep it that wayAgree with the poster above. We've been doing a great job of building a team and future. We're still very young but we don't have too many holes in our list. Give it a few years and we will have even fewer, with our core and younger draftees starting to mature (McBean, Menadue, Ellis) plus we will snag more guys through free agency and rookie drafts that will slot into our line up. I have confidence that the club have a clear plan in place for the future and any big names we get will purely be a bonus. We have hit on nearly every top draft pick and every trade in the past 5 years (Hampson is 50/50 but played some fantastic footy earlier when Maric was out). No one outside the club gives us credit for this, but we all know how well we've done and we will continue to do so.
