Richmond will play hard ball on a trade for Callum Coleman-Jones, with rival list managers believing the Roos will have to give over pick 20 as the centrepiece of the trade.
The Roos are adamant they will keep that pick and hand over a later selection given Coleman-Jones played only nine games in four years at Richmond.
Richmond were genuinely filthy that former No.20 pick Coleman-Jones decided to move, although Damien Hardwick’s Fox Footy demand for pick one was very much tongue in cheek.
“CJ, for us he’s a required player. He has requested a trade to the Kangaroos which is disappointing but we look forward to receiving pick one coming back our way,” he joked.
North Melbourne could secure “CCJ” in the pre-season draft but players don’t want to use that avenue because it leaves their former club without fair compensation.
Jack Martin and Jackson Hately only used that avenue in recent years after trades fell through at the last minute.
The other bit of leverage the Roos have is departing free agent Robbie Tarrant.
The Tigers would normally trade for North Melbourne defender Tarrant with a late throwaway pick so it didn’t dilute their incoming free agency compensation for Mabior Chol.
That pick might only be a third-rounder but it could help the Tigers move up in the draft order.
The Roos would have to be prepared to do a trade on Tarrant instead of letting him go so it will be up to the Tigers to play nice on a trade.

Stuff them. If we know we're getting a compo pick for him, then we take the compo and walk CCJ to the PSD.Screw the Tigers. Trade Taz for a throw away pick or just walk CCJ to the PSD
I don't reckon we get a compo pick out of Taz as they base it off age and wage. Age (32) being the killerStuff them. If we know we're getting a compo pick for him, then we take the compo and walk CCJ to the PSD.

Well one is a know Richmond supporter trying to help his team.The 12th-placed club playing hardball over their third-string ruckman would normally be laughed at.
But here we have three senior journalists taking it seriously.
This will be interesting…I don't reckon we get a compo pick out of Taz as they base it off age and wage. Age (32) being the killer
I.Smith netted the Hawks a 3rd round pick for a two year contract and aged 31.
That would be pick 39 for us if that was the case.
I just looked it up… it was 2 years. Not sure of the money though.Not a good comparison.
Smith was a year younger than Tazz and got a 3 year deal.
**** em, we got shafted big time on Brown last year. Mind you we played that all wrong by basically throwing him out - strange negotiation tactic.This will be interesting…
If we don’t qualify for a compo pick for Tarrant, then does that mean it also won’t effect their Chol compo?
This will determine who holds the whip hand in CCJ negotiations, although of course we always have PSD to tilt in our favour.
It will be like a game of poker getting these deals done.
It was 2 years. Dees offered 3.Not a good comparison.
Smith was a year younger than Tazz and got a 3 year deal.
Who overruled him.Very disappointing if it's a straight 2 years without significant triggers. Looks like we caved and Brady's reputation was that he would never do that so it would be more likely that he has been overruled here.
If we are going to go anywhere with this rebuild we have to start playing some kids down back - give them a chance to blend as a team within a team.
With BMac, Hall, Corr and LMac as the key 4 main defenders they don't need another veteran playing out his days back there.
what a load of crap, shxt journalism aimed to please the Tiger Army who buy the paper...PSD, don't trade Taz, so they lose compensation. Simple.Yeh I'm sure they were all offering up their valuations for a random scribe.
No way we give up pick 20!fu** em, we got shafted big time on Brown last year. Mind you we played that all wrong by basically throwing him out - strange negotiation tactic.
All those sprinkling Rawlings tactical nous, I’m hoping to hell Its better than what I saw last year.
We have pick 1 in the PSD there is no way we hand over pick 20.
