The longer it takes for Ottens to sign the more I'm starting to believe that Richmond are seriously considering trading him to relieve pressure from our financial troubles.

That's just trading Ottens for a harder but less effective player than himself and Fiora for an injury plagued version of himself.JohnF said:If he wants to go to Port, throw Fiora into the deal and bring over Brogan and Salopek.

who are you kidding John.JohnF said:I don't think Brogan is that far behind Ottens in terms of effectiveness.
About Salopek, he's a 19 year old kid getting 12 touches a game and playing matches in a side that has finished 1st on the ladder.
Fiora is a soon to be 24 year old getting 10 touches a game - many of which are clangers - and struggling to establish himself in the worst team in the competition.
Personally I think it's a good deal.
i prefer Simmonds over Brogan.Simmonds like Ottens can go foward.pebsy54 said:Does anyone watch Port Power games. Brogan is a lot better footballer than people in Melbourne give him credit for. He has more untapped potential than Ottens (he only played footy from age 17), is tougher, is currently a better player and probably wouldn't demand 400k a year.
I don't think the question is what we get as well as Brogan but what we give.

The Ottens trade would demand both Brogan and Salopek so your giving up Fiora for nothing.lol
I,LL spew if we agreed to that trade!
cheers!
JohnF said:LOL, giving Fiora would be more of a punishment than a favour to Port, that's the way I was looking at it.
Geez you guys overrate Ottens though.... I hope the rest of the football world does as well.
If I was in Port's position I'd rather keep Brogan and Salopek than Ottens and Fiora anyday of the week.
