Terrible deal for us. Langford the better player currently and has a higher upside.
Can't keep them all and his development has stalled, maybe will get better or maybe not. Sier has plenty of upside

Can get him without giving Langers up though. Pies need speed anyway they'd probably rather another pick.
Ridley?
Unfortunately and realistically we can't keep everyone that we "think" has potential. Players have to make way

Nah rather keep him, If we want Sier try with a pick.
Ridley should look at his options though as he would play plenty of senior footy at plenty of clubs.
If we could afford Sier instead of an 18 year old kid from the draft that's our best bet.

Of course, not saying we won’t.
I’m just saying it won’t be player x for player y like gets thrown up in these trade threads constantly.
Much more likely we trade out a player for a pick and use that pick to grab another player
Not really !! There are players that get 30-40 touches a game with 85% game time
he could easily improve his stats from 15 -20/25 sometimes but doesnt and a 4th year player should be able to run out games by now
to me he sounds like the type that will either never have a big tank to get these numbers or is not disciplined to put in the extra work required to build
Richmond also had a similar player who we always made excuses for similar to Sier....................... Corey Ellis
Blues interested in him?
Really?
I’d really be pushing for Redman but I know that probably would have kicked up a stink.
Haha yeh you'd be pushing **** up hill asking for RedmanI’d really be pushing for Redman but I know that probably would have kicked up a stink.

I wouldn't even give up A 5th rnd pick for Sier, at least not on exposed 2019 form
Sier should have flourished this year, given all the pies injuries, but he has actually stagnated, if not gone backwards. Borderline list clogger right now

Right on queue.
Injuries and lack of pre season hasn’t helped him at all.

He certainly hasn't come on like expected, ATM though his trade value isn't high and has shown the ability to be in our very best side, I'd prefer to hold ATM.
The kid pretty much played no elite football as a junior, has big upside IMO.

Big bodied mids often take longer to come on, isn't worth selling him now as he has very low trade value, we're better off rolling the dice in the hope he improves.

It doesn't seem like we'd have much incentive to trade him then. Sier isn't likely to be worth much more than a 2nd rounder, a pick similar to what we already used to draft him, only we're entering the lottery again and throwing away 4 years of development. I doubt we'll let him go without something good in return.
