i think he can be in the top 10-20 range if he keeps up this up. Just dont see him as a top 10 player. Happy for him to prove me wrong because he's one of the few tigers players i like lol.

I'd be content with that, nothing against Cerra though who I'd be happy to get with other trade assets.

He only plays well when we are dominating
Hes not that good
Coaches votes
Too small
Only good in a good team

Hawthorn offer Pick 2 in the 2021 draft for Shai Bolton
Who says no? Richmond or Hawthorn?

I just don't see a realistic scenario that we would say yes to.
You'd be very happy if you got a player as good as Bolton at pick 2. It would probably get the trade done if he requested to go there (which he won't), but it's not fair value.
You'd probably find similar stats for any of our forwards (or any other team for that matter). If the ball's not going your way you can't really do anything with it.
Another elite young player in the comp. But that never happens, because who would want to give up a player the equivalent of Bolton?
If Bolton requests a trade then we likely won't get fair value for him. We'll get some decent compensation for losing one of the best young players in the comp, but it won't be enough because he's uncontracted.
He's very very very unlikely to leave. He'll take a shorter deal with us for now, and be rewarded when the older guys are gone.
Top 10 pick easily
If a bottom club offered a top 10 pick reckon Tigers will jump at it they can pick up another gun in draft

He has already achieved the pinnacle of AFL with a couple of premierships. He doesn't need to leave to chase a premiership.
If a club offered him 1m a season, you think he would consider it with the earning potential of a player being so short.
I reckon he is unlikely to leave but I imagine he would be fielding some massive offers.

Wouldn't quite put him in the million dollar a year club, but. he's certainly in a fine patch of form over the last 12 months.
Worth, yep. No guarantee a top 3 pick comes off.
Would a club give it up....unlikely. The teams finishing there would be rebuilding. Bolton isn't the player you build a team around, but you add him to solid foundations and he becomes devastating.
That said, GWS will hold a top 3 pick this year (Collingwood's)
They may just give it up for Bolton as he gives them an extremely talented mid/fwd.
Lol what? Jump at the chance to draft a kid that if all goes perfectly will be just as good as bolton in 5 years time? Why would be even entertain the idea? He's 22 for another 6 months. Still has 10+ years to go. We'd be mad to get rid of him unless he demands to go home.
A top 10 pick could also be a Paddy Dow....
i think he means if Bolton wasnt going to sign, you'd take the top 10 pick.

No way on Earth is he a 900 K P/A type of player.

Not at the tigers he’s not but as you’ve seen first hand with your club. Rivals have to pay overs to pry players away.

We already have buyers remorse with Zac Williams.. (Granted Bolton is a lot younger with a higher upside)

Haha fair but the rule remains
you have to pay overs to convince players to leave.
Right now I reckon he’s worth around $600k ish to us.
You’d have to pay Atleast $800+ to get him to leave
Bolton isnt going anywhere, reckon he will sign a 2 year contract and but then his next contract will sky rocket if Richmond want to keep him.
No Chance , You can take a player in the top 10 and the chances of finding another freak like Shai is extremely low
You will find a Cerra but very hard to find another shai
