Ted Richards

If we were to trade him what would you want in return?

personally i dont want him to leave but if he feels he wants to go i'd want a 2nd round pick.

 

[go_the_bombers]

I'm the same don't want him to go but if he wants to go then a 2nd round pick would be a fair trade

I don't won't him to leave either but i understand why he would be looking elsewhere. I would want to delist Henneman and Hunt and keep Richards but oh well.

We need a key defender (to take the 1st or 2nd tall, not the 3rd!) but whichever club we trade him with will obviously be needing those, or else they wouldnt want Teddy!
So I think he might be swapped for a midfielder. Perhaps West Coasts 4th to 6th midfielder might be a good trade. Otherwise perhaps we may get a ruckman for him if any club was willing.

However, I get a feeling he may be part of a larger trade involving a few clubs and players. I just hope he is not a direct swap for Cole!!

I hope he stays as he looks like he will do a good job as the third tall in the backline. The other reason i really hope he stays is if he is traded then Henno wont be going anywhere.

I don`t care what he does , stay or go , has shown glimpses , but has generally treaded water , hopefully some club , like collingwood offers us something ridiculous and we can rip them off, as we usually do.

So far it just looks like media BS anyway. No where is it mentioned that Ted or Essendon are looking for a trade.All it says is that contract negotiations are continuing.
Now that Bartell and Power have signed they have nothing better to talk about

Ted's name has come up because other clubs view him as having some 'currency'. simple as that.

This is why we havnt heard the same rumours about Henneman, Hunt, Alvey et al.

For mine, Ted is definitely a 'keeper'.
