Welcome to Tigerland - Tim Taranto

[shawry]

Hawthorn received chump change for Mitchell, any club could have taken advantage of that situation, you even admit it yourself. Mitchell could have been secured on the cheap, he eventually went cheap and a second rounder would have been sufficient, both Collingwood & Geelong have done well in this instance. This notion that Mitchell cost Henry is also misleading, he didn't, Hawthorn were not the beneficiaries of Henry, Collingwood used him to splice their picks and spread the draft capital. This is a prime example of first class trading from two clubs and one example of a salary cap dump and receiving unders for a former Brownlow medalist.

I think the difference is with Taranto and Mitchell we were looking for a long term solution, Collingwood short term. Think it is as simple as coming down to that point.

That's a good point Shawry - it really means you are amortising the cost of the traded picks across many years rather than one or two years.

 

[ejort]

Agree. Can we move the trade debates to another thread? I don't want to mute the thread of a gun tiger player, but have no interest in the pages of off topic debate in here. It could really do with it's own thread for those interested in it.

 

[AngryAnt]

yeah, fair... there must be a trade thread surely

As an accountant I did enjoy the use of amortisation on a Punt Road End thread.

Most of us wouldn't know an amortisation if it bit us on the tit. FFS - it's a longer word than "wheelbarrow"

Fast becoming a great player for Richmond.

Fast becoming a great player for Richmond.

Didn't Dylan Sheild cop the same shiit when he left GWS?

With Shai only having 1 disposal in the last quarter, Taranto was once again our best player. He has been super consistent and surely has to be in discussion for the All Australian squad. Has been very impressive

It doesn't matter what the coaches think, what do the rating points say??

'He loves 'Dimma': Tigers recruit hit hard by shock resignation

Just months after joining Richmond on a seven-year deal, Tim Taranto was shocked to hear Damien Hardwick was stepping down

I won't Taranto to shut Cornhole up by kicking his 4th or 5th goal after the siren that I can taste it.
