EUFA EURO 2024 - Group Stage ⚽ EPL 24/25 starts Aug 17
Yeah - great position of strength - "owning the contract" of a player who doesn't want to play for you.
Not a fringe player but yet couldn't get a game for most of the 2nd half of the season with Aarts, Castagna and Rioli all getting selected before him. Sounds like the perfect definition of a fringe player to me.
The thing about wanting our first rounder for Higgins means you'd want a Top 10 for Aarts, Castagna or Rioli. Now nobody would seriously suggest that!!!
Feeling generous - mid 2nd round equivalent.
Not according to Richmond, next years 2nd has already been knocked back
2021 + Gresham is what blair asked for
Jaxsons?Known ITK on Saintsational saying deal is done for Jack Higgins (no other information forthcoming)
Why do you keep bringing up Gresham in a trade for Higgins?
Do you actually think that’s what Richmond asked for?
It’s hilarious.

Your trade skills are on par with your apostrophe use.
I don't agree with going after Ben Kingeither, I'm not sure how he fits into our f50 with Max.PLAYERCARDSTART34Ben King

He would cost us a fortune picks wise.
I'm pretty sure GGS is going to be much better next year and he is the main man in their forward line and he's not going to be that if he comes here.
How Higgins will become a Saint
Richmond is increasingly confident St Kilda is prepared to increase its offer from a future second round pick which will result in Jack Higgins becoming a Saint in 2021.
Higgins is now expected to be traded to the Saints by the trade deadline tomorrow night.
The Tigers are haggling over the deal not because they want maximum value but instead because they legitimately think Higgins can be a valuable team member of their side next year.
St Kilda is not prepared to give up its first round pick this year or next year but a swap of later picks could improve the deal for the Tigers.
Richmond and Higgins’ manager Paul Connors were confident on Tuesday night strong progress had been made on the deal.
Richmond was genuinely thrilled that Dan Butler was able make an impact at St Kilda last year apart from his slashing performance early in the year.
So trading Higgins to a club where Butler made such an impact will not be a disincentive in any way.
The Tigers will almost certainly bring in father-son Maurice Rioli jr, who will be tested by the AFL’s talent experts in Darwin later this week after quarantining on his way back to the Tiwi Islands.
Lonie for HigginsWhy do you keep bringing up Gresham in a trade for Higgins?
Do you actually think that’s what Richmond asked for?
It’s hilarious.
Cue: PSD
ohh wait, hes contracted
This is typical of Richmond, their culture and an indicator of why they have won 3 out of four flags. You need the players to win the flag, of course, but you also need the culture and attitude.
The highlighted text above tells me just that. Hate the pricks when we play them, but as a football club, have plenty of respect.
You may not rate Castagna and Rioli, but they have 3 premiership medals each which means Richmond rate them. Besides Higgins is well and truly in the mix but spent last season recovering from brain operations. At times he couldn't even stand up much less pull on his boots. Said he started the season with great trepidation, and you pot him for being behind certain players. Butler was a fringe player at Richmond also, but given a new role look now.Not a fringe player but yet couldn't get a game for most of the 2nd half of the season with Aarts, Castagna and Rioli all getting selected before him. Sounds like the perfect definition of a fringe player to me.

The other sweetener would be interesting.Lloyd announcing on radio this morning that a gentleman’s agreement is done.
I believe it’s St Kilda’s future 2nd rounder.
Maybe some other sweetener.
wait and see upon announcement of trade I guess
Richmond | 21, 36, 61, 79, 97 |
St Kilda | 17, 64, 77, 93 |
Not calling it yet but Richmond have always been fair in trades with other clubs,putting culture first while other clubs poach and haggle.
The karma bus will look on us favourably.
If we get handed a bag of dust for Jack,I am sure we will turn that dust into gold dust.
Our team is loaded with rookie picks and learn to play the Richmond way.
I’m just rapt our club got him through the toughest thing in his life,his brain operation.
He might not have been here,a very risky operation, so every time I see him on the football field ,alive and well,I know our club played its part.
We will miss you Higgo.
