Rather Lamb and Yarran on the list than Arnot targets.

rdon.

Actually I would rather the latter. It would enable us being cheaper to chase other better targets.

I seen the untouchables on afl.com.au Dusty was mentioned as not untouchable for RFC which I thought was interesting. Some of the untouchables of other clubs where iffy themselves and others would be the only ones other clubs would be interested in!

I heard this rumour a long time ago so maybe some truth
They have quite a few forwards and he can't squeeze in and he plays fairly well at lower level
I remember us being linked to him when he was delisted by Sydney.
I trust the recruiters and all but fair dinkum, a guy who was delisted by one club and can't get a game at a bottom 8 side, I'll spew if we give up anything more than a 4th rounder for him.

Lamb was alright at Sydney as a developing small forward

gWS grabbed him and Mumford as payback for buddy

Only 22 and reminds me a little of Schneider

Good pick up
Yeah wouldn't be a terrible signing, at least compete with morris, and lloyd for a small forward spot. Kicked 43 goals in the neafl this year. not to bad of a return.

He wants to go to sa
This one area where WA and SA teams have a big advantage over the Vic clubs. If a player wants to go back to his home state they only have to compete with one other club. If they have the better picks to offload it makes it pretty easy to get their man, often for unders.

If a player wants to move back home to Vic, there's cellar dwellers with top 5 picks, teams in their premiership window like the Hawks/Cats of recent years, or there's a big club like Collingwood or Essendon who just recklessly open up the chequebook. Makes it very difficult to pick up bargains like Yeo, Ebert, etc.

I wouldnt want him if it were proven there was some back door action.
Treloar or Eddie???

Eddie is supposedly doing back room deals with GWS to get Treloar for less than the Tigers are offering. So the 'bad' guys are Eddie and Allen at GWS.

I'd take Treloar in a flash.

Or are you suggesting some other issue around Treloar's sexuality, or Eddie's, or .............

On Lamb, we've already cut 5 from our senior list and you'd have to think at least 1 or 2 more will be added to that. There's no way known we'll be taking 5-6 selections in this draft, especially if we trade our first, which I reckon we will. If we can get Lamb for free or with a late late pick, then of course we should do it. I think we'll see Richmond add a fair few players from other clubs this year. We have plenty of promising youth developing in the twos. Our bottom end should look significantly better next year.

Have to remember also that we had 39 on our senior list this year so we might cut this back to 38
