Stop saying cheers after every post. It makes you sound so condescending, you're ruining the word.

He's out of contract and fed up with the rabble that are Richmond

Oh so what he told you that himself did he?

Get over it loser. You dont know whats going on in his mind and either do we.

Heard he likes richmond and the place and his family is all over here now and his girlfriend and he has just finished buying his house and his off field job is going alrite.

He is waiting for the new coach to be announced before he has a look at where he is.

And if u think we are a rabble you arent that high up the ladder either are ya mate.

Get Lost

Keep up the cheers, TOO, Im not sure how it makes you sound condescending and it doesn't ruin the word.

It would be a brave footy manager to give up a 24 year old guy like ottens. He was all aust a few years ago and I agree has gone backwards since then. He has been impailed by a peice of timber and had a serious back injury and had a fall out with the coach. Jeff White was in similar form at the same age and look at him now.
Stafford will not be around much longer and then who will ruck. Ray Hall showed on Sat he can not cut it as a ruckman(or a backman).
As long as he takes a pay cut on the new contract I see no reason why we would trade him. I new coach may be all he needs.

 

[Blue Red and Gold]

There is no way you will get Reily.
The crows will offer you Burton or Perrie + second rounder, you guys probably wont accept it which is fine.
The crows will not move mountains to get Ottens, I would hope we have learnt from the carey debactle that we need to persevere with our youngsters and not go for a quick fix.

Im a dockers supporter, so maybe a 3 way deal with fremantle or eagles, with stenglein, ottens and someone else involved.

Can use draft picks to correct for player talent. Richmond give adelaide 3rd rounder for thier 2nd round. Cause Ottens is better than Stenglein.

Haven't really thought about who would be part of the deal. Any suggestions? Who would richmond like from either of the West Australian teams.

Go to the top of the page and look at the banner for sporting bet. Thats who the Tigers want!

Anyone who says Ottens has gone backwards since his AA year knows very little about football.

Ottens was AA while playing as a tall forward in the shadow of Richo.

Since then, he has been playing in the more humble but strategically more important ruck position and has been doing exceptionally well.

Jeff White aside, I would suggest that he has been the best performed ruckman this season.

He is 200+ cms tall, has finally filled out, has exceptional ball and ruck skills.

You do not give away players like that!

HE MUST NOT BE TRADED UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES.

Be reasonable please.

a third round draft pick would do it , obviously a disappointing return for a number 3 pick...

 

[Darth_Tiger]

i would like to see what a new coach could get out of fiora. i know everybody wants to trade him, but we wouldnt get much for him, i think with all the others we have to get rid of he might be worth a gamble.

Half a gram of Louie and a packet of TimTams.

You know, if I was to take a player, it would probably be your namesake! If not, then as your 2nd round pick is likely to be late (32 - 35) then I would take that.

it would be a fair chance cjh that chris lamb would get the chop.a late pick in the nationals would be a good get!

No different to Richie Vandenberg... and l'm sure you'll put a decent price tag on him!

Young Jaymar (sp?) - the Demons 3rd ruckman.

We may need another ruckman - Stafford is nearing 30 as is Marsh and young ruckman/tall would help us out.

 

[Darth_Tiger]

now that would be a fair swap

"The crows will not move mountains to get Ottens, I would hope we have learnt from the carey debactle that we need to persevere with our youngsters and not go for a quick fix."

How is this a quick fix? Ottens is 24/25...He's young and still has a fair few years of footy left in him.

I don't think we'll get rid of him anyway.

A trade for Ottens?
The crows have nothing we want. A first round draft pick ( 7th at best ) is not enough. Adelaide's list is a shocker - Wallace's lack of interest proves it. The Crows have been deluding themselves in premiership mode for years, neglecting their youth.

This is a very good point and i dont think we need to worry too much about trading, better to draft the best kids available and grow our own. wallace said it himself we are 18 months ahead of hawthorn in the developing of our young players and if this is the case we must be 2 years + ahead of the crows. i have been swayed from thinking trade ottens for a good deal to not trading him at all. he will be a revelation under a new coach imo and as our young kids develop the side could be built around him.
