Daniel Rich

Might as well get the ball rolling on this kid straight away.
Harvey, Lloyd, Schwab etc put your heads together now and find us a way to keep this kid in WA and put him in purple.
Would look very nice running around along side of Palmer and underneath the feet of Warnock for the next 10 years.
I cant see us finishing anywhere hear a position that would allow us to select him so depending on how Mundy, Murphy, Crowley etc go this year i can see them all being offered as bait to get us a top 2 pick.

My only hope is that Warnock is not invovled anywhere.

 

[freodog]

I think Warnock would have to be involved if we were any shot at getting him and even then it would be a stretch.

How would you feel about finishing 16th???

No thx, we have never tanked + never will.

Sure about that, what about the Paul Hasleby game against the Cats in Rnd 22??

It's near on impossible to win down at Skilled at the best of times. I don't think we needed to put any extra effort in to lose there especially with the team we had.

If we couldn't get a top 2 pick for Judd, do you really think any of those players would get even close? I admit, we got a little screwed, but even so, the only way you'll get him is if you finish bottom.

 

[Freo Big Fella]

Start rumours he's an unreliable crackhead. Sure we run the risk of West Coast picking him up, but it beats offloading Nockers.

Coupled with our first rounder i think we could work something out big QL.

Highly unlikely but we can all hope.

 

[DockerNJL]

I think you would nearly have to sell your soul to get pick 1or2 next year,
With whoever finishing down there would want Rich + Natuini big time.

 

[ImperialPurple]

No-one, but no-one, trades #1 picks these days.

Everyone else learnt from our mistake...


You'd be pushing the proverbial uphill to get a #2 pick, as well.



Rich will be wearing black'n'yellow or navy blue next year.

We definitely tanked that game. It was the last game of the season, and not a tanking strategy as we have seen some cubs employ, but it was still a game we chose to lose.

 

[Bradesmaen]

Which navy blue... the one that goes with white or the one that goes with red?

Forgot about the red ones... but either one really. More likely going to come under CC's tutelage.

 

[anti.]

the season hasnt started and you're talking about trading players to get a high pick. why? you're going to trade something of worth, not players like mundy, murphy and crowley.

 

[The Night Shift]

Jumping Jesus - We have a potential tip top ruckman in warnock.... I wouldn't trade him for a high draft pick - no way... I think he should stay with us.
As far as Daniel Rich - we'll either have to do a Carlton or have the biggest train wreck of epic proportions to pick him....

 

[beaver fever]

As a richmond supporter who has tipped richmond for the spoon last three years including this year, there is nothing that fremantle could reasonably offer to get pick 1 or 2.

 

[theGav56]

This year there was a ot of speculation that the club should trade up to secure the best player it could, specifically Palmer, and also try to snare Maston. We did not do that, got Palmer, and have jagged a couple of others who will hopefully improve our list in time.

The year before we traded to get Tarrant, but still jagged a couple of exciting youngsters who we thought were bargains.

The draft is a raffle.

only to clubs with a below par recruiting staff.

McDougall pick 5??

Sampi #6 was a great recruit hey Ant.

We all make mistakes, say something productive or go troll elsewhere.

 

[ImperialPurple]

geebus - even Judd @ pick 3. He buggered off back to Vic at the age of 24 - he could have another 8-10 years playing for another club. That's a gamble and a half in itself, taking interstate kids.

McDougall pick 5??

we still got eric mackenzie out of it. so it wasnt a wasted pick.

you picked 1 bad one from all the way back in 2000.

he did also play some good footy for west coast, so the potential was there but he just couldnt really apply himself.

Or maybe the culture was too much for him

played some fantastic football for west coast as well. a great pick up by the recruiting staff but he just couldnt stay in shape.

we all know he was a good player, just got shot down by personal issues.
