Yarran for pick 19 will go down as one of the worst trades ever unfortunately.

Very early to make that call rich but you know that.
If cunningham comes on, as i suspect he will, it just adds another memorable trade to the tiggies collection.

Your bizarre obsession with Cuningham is fact.
To call the drafting of Cuningham poor and a missed opportunity is not fact, it is opinion and nothing more.
This is all a bit sad really. Richmond have unfortunately ****ed up yet again but your first reaction is to try deflect that failure on to Carlton.
You're very bitter about something...and it'd be hilarious if it wasn't so sad.
Cripps, Gibbs, Murphy, Curnow the elder. Even Curnow the younger.
All capable midfielders, but none with a lot of pace
Cuningham over Dunkley made perfect sense. You guys are slow and need speed and he adds it.
No different to us taking Morgan over guys like Mathieson, Balic, etc. We needed pace and took a kid who may take longer.
At the time, Yarran smacked of Richmond being desperate to land a household name after missing Treloar.
He was a good enough player to give up a pick in the teens for though. So while its unfortunate they didn't get to see him on the park, no one knew this was coming.
