My source told me some Tiger related 'behind the scenes' list management news tonight involving a target they are actively pursuing ... but its so unbelievable that I don't want to go too early with it just yet! I'll get some confirmation tomorrow to back it up!

Watch this space! (Sorry not trying to come across as a tease!)
:eek:

Ok maybe its not THAT unbelievable - but its just caught me by suprise.

Richmond are going pretty hard behind the scenes at a certain Fremantle recent draftee who whos is having trouble adjusting to life in Perth and is looking to possibly be another James Aish situation.

I don't want to make it too obvious .. but the player in question was drafted last year and has a brother who plays at St Kilda ;)

Tigers confident.
That would be awesome.:eek:

That's not too surprising, pretty sure he was in our top 3. Would be great get. Wonder if 1 year in the system has changed his preferences yet or still has a soft spot. Does mean nothing once he gets in system.

I know its not a big name like Treloar or Dangerfield... but I thought it was big news because he's only really just gotten there?
Yeah.1st year,Huge surprise.Although Ross Lyon wouldn't be everyone's cup of tea when it comes to coaches i would imagine.

Yep thats what I was thinking, I'm told that he wanted to be picked by a Melbourne based club last November, to be closer to his brother .. and because his parents are moving down here also.

Might be hard to shake him given he's contracted until the end of next year - but it worked for Boyd, so nothing would suprise me!

No doubt there will be other Melb based suitors if word gets out.Saints be one of the obvious ones.
Yep Contracts these days not worth the paper their written on.

It makes me wonder if Blair and co had this planned all along?

For example, they couldn't split Ellis/Weller and knew of Weller preferring to come to Victoria and Freos interest, so they took Ellis and banked on being able to secure Weller also down the track? Hmmm.

Best of both worlds? ;)
