It is risky but I don't think he's going to have much other choices.
Saints are interested as a delisted free agent but that requires alot to play out.
Both Dogs and Marra would need to agree to tear up his contract, and then Marra would have to agree to have his 800k spread over two years.
Saints are the only team that will trade for him and that's because they need us to cover his contract.

Ok they can gives us Wilkie and we give them JUH and pay every cent of contract wins 😝

If they breathe Saints want them.

Desperation central to keep NWM who will leave anyway.
 
I think Suns a good fit and Damien Hardwick would be great for Marra!
Aswell as Rioli. It's always a worry bringing troubled players into a young squad though, the chances of leading other impressionable minds down the same path has to be a concern. Where as if he went to somewhere like Bisbane or Pies that'd be less of a concern in my mind.

I heard Hardwick speak at a function about his regret at taking Troy Taylor, a young indigenous player who had been in trouble for shoplifting etc but had apparently reformed.

He said he’d never take a player who was off the rails on a promise of reform again and it was one of his biggest regrets as a coach.

I really hope this interest is genuine and allows us to get something useful back. I worry it’s not.

Hardwick coached Marlion Pickett who has an interesting history maybe he has changed as a person and doesn’t judge someone that has made a few mistakes in their life

There’s a difference between someone whose mistakes are in the distant past and someone like JUH who would appear to still be off the rails.
 
Pickett was arrested for multiple burglaries when he was on Richmond's list , and before that did time for multiple offences.


Convicted of handling stolen money, yet to be sentenced.

I'm surprised that James Hird is welcomed back into the AFL fold so easily . He's a bigger crim than Pickett. It's a forgiving industry.

Well there’s that too - Pickett had a fine career for a late bloomer but seems to have struggled to stay on the straight and narrow.

Cousins was reportedly on the gear his whole time at Richmond and for more than a decade after as well.

Generally once someone is so far off the rails they can’t even turn up to their job it’s a long road back.

You forgot the part where he packed up his bags and headed to WA after the RDFL Home and Away season. The team he played for qualified for finals but when he found out players don't get paid extra for playing finals, he was done.

Absolute selfish prick. It's amazing the Tigers won two flags with him on the list.
